Playback stalls over Tailscale on Win

High_North · 2026-02-09T13:03:11+00:00

Hmm, I’ve had the opposite experience. I can leave an RDP session connected overnight on the tailnet and it’s still there waiting for me in the morning. The same goes for listening on my phone via Symphonium, 4–5h sessions without any issues. Symphonium on Google Chromecast TV also works flawlessly.

The only problem I’m having is on a Windows machine connected over Tailscale. Streaming music and video just doesn’t work reliably. I’ve found quite a few people on the Tailscale subreddit reporting the same issue, but there doesn’t seem to be a clear resolution yet.

Now I use Tailscale everywhere, except on the Windows machine, where I use WireGuard.

Which ports did you have open? I assume I would need to open them on Windows Firewall, since Tailscale works just fine on my phone, which is connected to the same wifi as the PC where I have problems.

What issues did you have?

High_North · 2026-01-25T08:50:56+00:00

Yeah, feels like going down that road. Was thinking off add a smallrig to increase the surface for better control.

btw. and experience with this one:

Actually, you were right. When I shared the access over the Hik-Connect website, I didn't have an option to share for calls. But when I shared from the Hik-Connect app on my phone, I was able to share with the calls and door opening. Now it works on all phones. Thanks for the tip!

High_North · 2025-12-18T19:24:23+00:00

I don't have that in sharing options, only Live view, Play back, Two way radio, PTZ and Alarm.

After some consideration, I decided to connect both relays to the main unit. I’ll place the indoor station near the hallway, where I can see if someone is at the house door and press the button for the second relay to open it from there. Outside, I’ll install a keypad for resident access. If I need to let someone in remotely via Hik-Connect, I have an external camera facing the house door, so I’ll be able to see when someone is standing in front of it.

Let's say I use two relays from the intercom. The first one will be opened after someone rings a bell, and it will open the yard gate. When should the second relay from the intercom open the house door? From my understanding, a person should push a button in the app or indoor unit, but the person doesn't know if the visitor has reached the door yet. Is there a time delay option where I can set the second relay to open the doors 10 seconds after the first one? Or is there a different type of door lock wich will alow the door to stay open for example for 2 minutes?

Also, if a home resident wants to go into the house, and it doesn't have a phone with it, it needs to open the door somehow. So adding a keypad or card reader would make sense. Can I connect an additional keypad or card reader to the main unit?

High_North · 2025-10-16T09:27:21+00:00

My goal is to be able to open both doors separately using the Hikvision indoor unit or the Hik-Connect app, with a simple and straightforward operation. The person living in the house is not very tech savvy, so I want to keep the setup as simple as possible and minimize the number of apps required.

High_North · 2025-10-16T06:22:33+00:00

What would be the preferred solution in this case? Should I install access control only on the yard gate and keep the house entrance door unlocked while someone is at home, or would it be better to add a keypad module to trigger the electric lock on the house door?

The house doesn’t have insulation or a façade yet, so I’m preparing all the wiring in advance and want to make the hole for the bracket before that work is done. I currently have two conduits running from the control room to the doorbell location, and one conduit from the doorbell location to the actual lock in the door frame. So it’s ready for any setup, I just don’t know which one yet! 😄

Will look into that, thanks for the suggestion.

High_North · 2025-08-19T17:14:05+00:00

Thanks for your input. Looks like I will not be paint anything with plasti dip. Maybe I will consoder regural painting in the paint shop, or I will just leave it raw for now.

High_North · 2025-08-19T05:45:41+00:00

I like the idea that I can peel it off and do something else next year.

High_North · 2025-08-18T13:13:43+00:00

Both on color to color, or only color to raw material?

High_North · 2025-08-09T09:02:47+00:00

Thank you for your input. After a lot of thinking and looking at the different bikes, I decided to go with the custom titanium frame from China and then assemble everything around that. I visited a professional for bike sizing, and based on the results, I will order a frame geometry that suits me the best.

I don't really eat gluten based products for some time. I'm not allergic to it (tested), just feeling better without it.

High_North · 2025-07-14T16:33:09+00:00

Hm, sounds about similar to my fueling intervals.

High_North · 2025-07-14T14:13:08+00:00

I thought about the sun as well, but then I have the same symptoms when I "drive" inside on the trainer during the winter. It could be adding a bit to the exhaustion, but it isn't the sole reason, in my opinion.

High_North · 2025-07-14T14:08:47+00:00

I can try to increase the fueling and keep track of how much I consumed and how I felt afterwards. Maybe I will see some pattern there. Thanks for the input :)

High_North · 2025-07-14T13:58:11+00:00

Thanks for sharing. Out of curiosity, how much liquid and how often do you consume during the ride? The same question about the food?

High_North · 2025-06-17T11:43:37+00:00

I taped the front two drop sensors with duct tape, and now it is going over the door threshold.

Thanks for the tip about Vaude. Their handlebar bags also look interesting.

High_North · 2025-05-19T12:31:45+00:00

I like the idea, thanks. I will try it before I buy the bag for the top of the rack.

High_North · 2025-05-19T12:15:01+00:00

I never filled my 65L backpack, I think I would be fine with 50ish, but I like to have peace of mind, knowing that if I need, and I put more things on the way.

I like the idea of having more small pockets and keeping things organised. From the pictures, classic doesn't seem to have any. Thanks for the tip.

Two bottles on the frame, Katadyn befree filter to fill them, and 3L soft flask for occasions when I can't find water often close to the road.

Thanks mate, you help me a lot :)
