It's reasonable for them to block 25 outbound.. what about 465?

Is there a fundamental "standard of services" that have to be provided by anyone offering free internet connectivity?

Grrrrrr

Bhaal: Version and Branch ?

For the Pi cam people

rexd666: yeah was looking at that the other day

rexd666: Your branch, but the gzip'd code... Not a actual git pull...

From when?

Seems to be July 29th

I was just checking my Prod box which has Sunday snapshot and it had one zmupdate error and just loses the camera which is auto rebooting everyday, just turned that off. Not much useful in that pastebin

Yah, it was all I had... It happens randomly... The cameras keep recording, but there is no way of controlling them...

hi rexd666

Hmph

hehe

jzaw, Eh?

I hate mailing list archives, so much useful information in ffmpeg, but so hard to search and read it.

CJ_, i thought you were looking for info on cheap but effective ip cameras?

jzaw, I was. But your statement did not imply that. :)

which one?

you dropped out at some point

not sure you saw all i posted

Probably not. Mind reposting it?

well the escam qd900 wifi is often available for £30 ea inc pnp but when not on offer it's £42 ish

it's 1080p but only manages 15fps ... i think it's squeezing 1080p out of a cheaper sensor

but that's sufficient for 5fps security recordings

ive found the IR leds to be very powerful even though they only use about 3-4W !

no activex required to configure it

wifi can be turned off

BUT they dont have poe built in

i use .3af/at splitters to power mine from a proper poe switch

rtsp stream is easily available and telnet into shell is too

that's about it

CJ_, example daytime http://i.imgur.com/4wiPJ6m.png

slightly scalled

almost see the second hand on the clock

Interesting.

I am planning on using an IR lamp for lighting, so IR leds are not a huge concern.

And they work well with zoneminder?

rtsp h264 yes

Is there a non wifi version? I am looking to wire everything.

not in the escam range - at that price

hosafe might

i only use the escam wired anyway

and turn off the wifi

infact ive opened one up and it's hung off 4 pins on the board

Oh, so it does come with a wired port?

i assume that's usb ... so ill remove the tiney postagestamp sided wifi module

yes wifi is shit for ip / scurity cams

wired all the way

Agreed.

lo jzaw

0/

inflex, Hmm?

hi CJ_

jzaw, I will have to check these out.

I always hate security footage that is just grey blurs. About as useless as no footage.

btw i have no connection with escam at all ... im just a camera user

Understood.

Have you tried other versions of their cameras?

jzaw: Whats the name of you app?

which app?

are you thinking of asker who is writing that 'roid app?

wait, was it someone else... the zoneminder app

yes

asker

what's it called?

He's not even in here :) how rude

CJ_, no i havent

i can only speak to that one

jzaw, Understood. Thanks.

someone here has hosafe cams i was really keen to see the quality of the image out of those

i seem to remember they were sans wifi but did have poe built in

for about £40

remember these are very budget cameras

There appear to be two versions of the qd300 on amazon. One is 720 and the other 1080?

the chinese manufacturer is trying to squeeze every last drop out of cheap kit

qd300 afaik is ONLY 720

unless you have another link?

No. I was looking at the qd900 without realizing it.

telnet is open on them

The image you posted is from the 300 or 900?

root/cat1029

i only have 900's

Understood.

Reading an article about setup. Thoughts? https://www.devin.cl/blog/escam-ip-camera/

but it was scalled a tiny bit cos of my screen and linux snapshot

Does the camera come with the poe adapter that is shown in the article?

nope

that's a passive injector and splitter

i use a real poe switch

and an active splitter tp-link 10R imsmr

So I will need a splitter even with a poe switch? What is the difference between passive and active?

passive uses the cams orig psu ... can you see the pic?

I did not realize that.

a poe switch uses .3af or .3at and the active splitter

ah zmNinja

Understood.

Bhaal, correct

I will have a poe switch, but the cameras I have been looking at did not require a splitter.

cos they have poe built in

which is the drawback of this qd900 :/

Understood.

was no biggie for me as i have the splitters already

but i need more cams so the next cams will be chosen to have that built in

What cameras are you looking at?

well i was hoping to see the images from the hosafe

Why did you link the splitter?

to show you

that's night time at about 5m distance

:D

Using the built in leds?

about 10m distance

yes

the gate behind me is 20m

street lights over there ofc

that is a shot from zm

at the time i was jpg'ing rather than storing the h264 stream
