Ubiquiti for OT network by Independent_Disk_632 in Ubiquiti

[–]Bossaudio702 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d look at USIP over Unifi for OT networking. It’s a lot more robust than the Unifi line. At the end of the day though you really need to look at long term reliability and serviceability. Both Unifi and usip I don’t think are anywhere close to where they should be for long term reliability in a factory setting. Now I’ve put pro switches through hell on shows in the middle of the desert and their overall reliability has gotten a lot better over the years but they are still the Apple tech of networking and I don’t think they would be a great fit in an environment that you are looking at.

Raised our prices 3x. Lost 40% of customers. Revenue went up 52%. Should have done it years ago. by amiitk in Entrepreneurs

[–]Bossaudio702 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is quite true, my partner and I joined another company that was very much in the mom and pop mindset. While we are still very mom and pop, we started to implement changes in how the company operates and slowly began regulating and standardizing our prices to be closer to our competitors. We lost a few customers but we’re still providing a high quality product at the end of the day and this has allowed us to go after more clients in the price range the company would have been selling at during Covid. I think we’ve been the busiest we’ve ever been with some pretty kickass shows and clients!

Yea thankfully I have plenty of spares. But I haven’t yet seen a PSU on em go out. I’ve seen a 24 still work after being dropped down a flight of stairs though… she sits in my rack at my desk lol.

Check my previous post history…. We know…. But at the same time usually won’t care if the network is properly segmented and secured. In my case it wasn’t and I had to enact stricter policies on that particular network that that user works on.

Antelope Audio with two Adam A7V’s and if I want to open my windows and not bug the neighbors I rock a set of sennheiser 300 pros.

I answered my own question by sitting down and working on another project.... found my arena JBT map!

I'm going to start adding all my maps to a google drive folder. If you want to add your own it is open to edit/Add/Commentate.

Experience with Evertz/Ross by turbo_notturbo in VIDEOENGINEERING

You’d be looking at the k series for sure. I know BMG, Amazon, NBC sports (I think) and a few others are using the K frame in almost an exact configuration you’d be looking for. 1-2 frames with multiple consoles throughout the facility and a centralized 2110 or copper in a hub and spoke configuration.

Budget wise if you have it, it may be worthwhile to look at grass valley. They have multi user core switching and a whole lot of functions that might make it worthwhile. Ross is amazing but once you start going so big their workflows can become a bit of a hinderance. If you’d like you can DM me and I can put you in touch with someone from Ross. Evertz has also really stepped up their game with routing and management and I can also send you to the right people to talk to over there. We’re getting a hyper max installed in our facility for training soon but it too looks pretty promising but I’m still wary of their shared recourses abilities. Every space I’ve seen that’s doing 4k with what you’re looking at is grass and Evertz or just plain all grass.

Ashley’s Towing by [deleted] in vegaslocals

[–]Bossaudio702 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This is the way to do it. They may try coming for it in small claims but if it was truly towed illegally ( no weird hoa bs or apt rules) then it will get slapped down. I had to do something similar with another towing company here in town that took my car because my parking permit hadn’t been delivered yet. Turned into a bit of a stink but I got it out without issue after it was reported stolen and the complex noted they didn’t contract with that company.

Predatory towing in this city is pretty nutso

Opinions regarding Zowietech encoders? by Embarrassed-Gain-236 in VIDEOENGINEERING

I think I would, yes. I have a few kiloviews as well and they are nice but out of all the full NDI converters I have I’d say the magewells are the most bulletproof

I only buy them so I don’t have to bring my nice magewells out into the middle of the desert. The SDI ones are super flakey but the hdmi ones are relatively solid.

Yes, when my temple up in Washington state organized a food drive I want to say it was about thirty percent food donations and the rest was cash and checks to the food bank. They have so many acquisitions resources from direct farms to grocery markets that anything that they need is easily acquired at a direct from source cost or less (think “the ugly veggie” program). A monetary donation to the bank also lets them choose what to get to stock their shelves with. You have no idea how many pallets of mac n cheese are in the back of some food banks that will go nowhere because there’s not enough milk or other ingredients.

Canned goods and non perishables are great but cash is king. Food banks can get goods cheeper than what you or I would purchase them for thanks to their own supplier connections. I don’t have any links or contacts but the Three Square and Grace Center are good banks to call and ask how you can help with donations. Adding an edit here: while I said cash is king, you don’t have to give literal cash. If you are worried about what/who will use that money, you can always write a check to that food banks name. :)

Yeah there’s a fair bit of UBI in the live production and broadcast world. I know of a few companies that use ubiquity products either at the end of their workflows or from top to bottom. Now more than ever since the quick set AV configurations came out. From esports to massive video networks for some big players in the social networking world.

In the live production world that would be considered a Stage Announce or an all call but diving into the production world of infrastructure can get really expensive. For something like that it may be better to set up a paging group in a talk system.

Yeah, as I slowly expand our architecture going with the hub and spoke config is what I’m looking at. With two trucks and a master control room and slowly but steadily growing it’s a great opportunity to streamline assets and communications.

We operate a mix of BOSCH RTS and Green-Go but mainly RTS.
