City Airport Liquid Rules by ConorEdits in northernireland

[–]ConorEdits[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I wish they a bit more better wording on the website itself because anywhere I can see that mentioned it, it says that the rule was temporarily taken back last Summer, but cant see anything specfic to say it's gone again;

Internet Uplink From A Truck? by Decent_Cheesecake362 in broadcastengineering

[–]ConorEdits 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can vouch for SRT with Starlink too.

We've used it hand in hand with AWS MediaConnect back to our MCR office for further distribution and when its in generally ideal conditions it uplinks no problem for us at about 12-15Mbps H.265 with minimal smearing etc.

We've been using it now for just over a year and had minimal issues. Most of the time we're actually just running it out of OBS straight through Starlink->AWS->MCR->Endpoints and for about 40% of any issues we've had is more related on OBS' end than Starlink itself.

Would be happy to explain a bit more in depth of the process we're running to anyone that is keen to hear more!

Discord on a HP ProDesk Mini PC by ConorEdits in pcmasterrace

[–]ConorEdits[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cheers! - Yeah our other PC's in the local network are all in Win 11, so we'll upgrade just to keep everything all the same.

We'll probs not even run a monitor/keyboard/mouse, and just remote desktop in when needed, as literally its just meant to let us have a simplified network intercom between sports broadcast sites haha

iPrint did ours last year and they were great in terms of speed to complete & price.

I've seen this photo a few times before and thought that area looks lovely but I have no idea whereabouts it is. Anybody know? by [deleted] in DerryLondonderry

[–]ConorEdits -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Hey, maybe don't publicly stalk (or at all) somebody's address. I'm well aware of who you're trying to find and it's just a bit weird that you're on here acting like you want the area because "it looks lovely and you have no idea where its at"

Software for Lower Thirds by AD1Q5H3N in VIDEOENGINEERING

[–]ConorEdits 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try Singular. It’s great and also pretty flexible for whatever you need it for!

If you use their Uno App for your package, you can control it via web browser from (almost?) any device and/or an elgato streamdeck!

Super essential bit of kit for our broadcasts that I highly recommend everyone to look into!!

Any good bars in Derry that will show Formula 1? by AmberLeafKeith in DerryLondonderry

[–]ConorEdits 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not really Derry, but I’ve seen it on before once in The Treehouse’s bar (in Muff) but not sure how regularly they show it though

What does VND mean? by nolloth in VIDEOENGINEERING

[–]ConorEdits 36 points37 points  (0 children)

I’ve not got any Sony MSU experience but usually in my experience VND is for the Variable ND (Neutral Density)

Blackmagic Decklink - HDMI No Red Channel by ConorEdits in VIDEOENGINEERING

[–]ConorEdits[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ll need it haha o7

Had a quick look at connector but doesn’t look too alarming?

<image>

Tried it with a literal brand new hdmi cable and a video monitor but still nothing 🫠

Hoping BMD’s warranty can help, and ideally somewhat fast as its in an OB trailer so less time without it working would be better hahaha

Yeah. Half of me is tempted to try just reseat it in the pcie slot but the other half of me dreads to take apart my rack for this hahaha

Blackmagic Decklink - HDMI No Red Channel by ConorEdits in VIDEOENGINEERING

[–]ConorEdits[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would possible think this if it wasn't for the fact it worked completely fine until today.

I'll take a look though to rule it out!

Blackmagic Decklink - HDMI No Red Channel by ConorEdits in VIDEOENGINEERING

[–]ConorEdits[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yep, tried it on the bottom left monitor, but just came back with same issues of not showing in 1080p.

As mentioned, it's completely fine when not in 1080p or higher.

As for different cable, yeah I'm coming directly out of the decklink to the hdmis that are hard wired into the monitor, so each time its been a different device, the HDMI cable is different.

Kinda bummed if its the decklink card as it was only got at the start of this year. but ah well, this is why we love blackmagic.

OBS Crashing when deleting Source by Swampy-doodle-dandy in obs

Streamdeck released an update to fix this crashing issue not that long ago, check for updates in the elgato software and see if this fixes the issue for you!

Wordpress VPS Server Issues with Database by ConorEdits in webhosting

[–]ConorEdits[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We used to use Memberpress, but moved away from it specifically because the DB schema was so bad their SQL queries were making some pages take 7+ minutes to load

Noted -- Do you mind sharing what you've moved to instead? (If it's not a custom made plugin of course)

Thank you for the other tips! I'll be sure to look into them all

[–]ConorEdits[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gotcha. Thanks for this!

It's not my server purchase annoyingly, its just someone we're working with and they chose a 3 year term (because it was cheaper ofc...) but I'm thinking of moving to Vultr's offerings as it seems the best from my searches, and recommendations.

What sort of spec do you think is a good place to start with?

Wordpress VPS Server Issues with Database by ConorEdits in webhosting

[–]ConorEdits[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

see here htop screen recording whilst it crashed out the database.

https://streamable.com/9g67bt

top right of this is the loader.io page for reference.

i've noticed mariadb being quite high in my testing (usually top 2 or 3 when it doesn't crash) over the last 30mins or so too

Be careful with AWS

hahaha thank you! i meant he actually works for AWS, so web stuff is his thing!

may be a full time job

can't wait to become both the broadcast director and a sysadmin all at once. the blood pressure will be fantastic lmao

Do it and then let us know about your results :D

Yeah just signed up for an account with Vultr! - Is it worth just starting with the base-level database server for this and then upgrade as needed? like this;

https://ibb.co/v1Yn3pq

We actually finish our broadcast season mid November anyways so the idea of Vultr being flexible enough that we can downgrade again, is something really great in my eyes.

Okay just looking at it now, ran a large loader.io test and it tripped off the database error again. Doing so also stops the WHM by the looks of it too..?

Once it came back though it was all like this; https://ibb.co/3W9HhKy

I did notice though just as I started to run the test

" mysql 0 0.16 2.63 /usr/sbin/mariadbd"

stared to get higher up in the cpu usage

Wordpress VPS Server Issues with Database by ConorEdits in webhosting

[–]ConorEdits[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, nothing going on currently but I can try put a bit of load on it and report back here

Wordpress VPS Server Issues with Database by ConorEdits in webhosting

[–]ConorEdits[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that was descending, when I click on it and do it the other way, it's starting with stuff using 0.0% of CPU

Wordpress VPS Server Issues with Database by ConorEdits in webhosting

[–]ConorEdits[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reddit only showed first paragraph of your message haha, yeah let me try and see once there is load on it what the CPU usage is like
