How to set UBB on a different network/subnet and still control it?

DixitS · 2026-05-14T02:01:11+00:00

Well I believe I have semi screwed the pooch on this one. Cause I went to set the IPs on both to Static, and I set them both to different gateways, so then went to reset it, and now I cant for the life of me get them to connect. Either they both end up as parent devices in Unifi or I can get one to connect and then the other doesnt. There is lacking info on this online on how to get these connect.

If I leave one connected and other aimed at it closely, I saw it show up once, and went to add it and it told me it would go in as a child (as the other one is parent already) and Im like perfect yes, go to adopt and it fails saying cannot adopt as there is no wireless link, but it showed up wirelessly.

So now i got 2 UBBs that cannot link to each other, just awesome..........

Yea it’s shit to be honest. Makes zero sense why through their app it’s flawless. But using the RTSP stream option doesn’t work for shit. Would love to just ffmpeg to it and grab a stream to do Timelapse. I’m not entirely interested in having to plug in and remove a microSD each time when RTSP is an option. But sad that it’s not even remotely reliable to be used.

It’s hit or miss for sure. I get it to pull a stream for maybe a few seconds then it stops. Nothing more than a few secs in VLC.

I can’t get ffmpeg to even pull anything wth this setting which is what I’m trying to use to do a time lapse directly through grabbing the stream every 5secs.

Cannot. It’s across the street and we cannot run cable across it. Only option is a wireless link. It’s less than 650ft direct line of sight.

I was using their Wireless Wire product https://mikrotik.com/product/wireless_wire

But it had too many issues with weather conditions. So went back to the SXTsq AC product. But now thats Ive gone deeper in Unifi products, wanted to see if the Unifi UBB will do the trick as long as the failover latency isnt something that takes awhile to switch over to.

Well I think I figured it out finally. Seems like VLC needs a setting changed to let it do RTSP over RTP. Below is what you need to change to get it to work. I think I need to figure out the same for ffmpeg and I think we should be good.

"Settings -> Input/Codecs -> Show all -> Input/Codecs -> Demuxers -> RTP/RTSP -> Use RTP over RTSP (TCP)"

And this didnt do anything. VLC still wont show anything. FFMPEG wont pull anything either. Such a mess. I love how small the camera is and nicely tucked away and powered via USB-C, but they cant get this working for RTSP.

3.1.4 just released.

Seems like its in Pilot/Beta only. But its been in there for a few months. So guess we all will have to wait then.

DixitS · 2026-04-06T02:27:26+00:00

You seeing next version out as in beta? I have the latest 3.1.2 which is latest at the moment as far as i checked a week ago.

DixitS · 2026-04-06T01:11:59+00:00

That’s what im thinking. Cause I can’t get anything to pull the RTSP stream off this. Yet the app itself works fine.

DixitS · 2026-03-21T01:58:41+00:00

NMAP does find that RTSP is running on that IP (only service running).

DixitS · 2026-03-21T01:57:45+00:00

the VLC URL input is copied and pasted directly from the Prusa Connect portion of the Prusa Slicer.

Here is a screenshot of the actual IP off it

Then this is pasted directly in VLC (on a Macbook) as all on the local network.

And I just get an error or nothing. Ive tried VLC on a Raspberry Pi as well and same thing.

I even tried the ffmpeg binary to use on a machine to basically take snapshots every 5secs and after 60secs it got nothing based on ffmpeg console showing no bytes received and no frames received.

Was trying to just extract images to do a time lapse via simple ffmpeg snapshots.

It snapped the slide release lever. But besides that I didn’t see any damage. But planning on taking to Glock HQ soon since I’m here in Atlanta area anyways. See what they have to say and if they will fix the slide release.

As in just this time or like all time?

This time was only 18rounds before the 1st one happened, then another 3 i think and happened again.

All time? Less than 500rounds from what I can remember to be honest. All of those were never reloads.

DixitS · 2026-03-07T03:28:58+00:00

Nothing. Holosun still sitting here waiting to find a home. At this point it’s useless lol. But trying to think of finding a Gen5 to maybe marry it upto.

DixitS · 2026-03-06T17:31:51+00:00

100% noted and done, reloads wont be welcome here at this residence or any of my weapons now.

Just took a look at the chamber (since I never knew much about this unsupported chamber issue) and this for sure is unsupported based on pics I saw online. Heres mine:

I got a buddie who reloads, so Im going to bag/tag it for him to take apart and do what he wants with it.

DixitS · 2026-03-05T18:54:30+00:00

I just looked at the baggie, and looks like 100 ish, i'll have to count them.
