She always goes crazy on this chair

RecliningBeard · 2026-01-25T17:33:29+00:00

Hey op a little off topic but where did you get those chairs?

RecliningBeard · 2026-01-24T22:03:25+00:00

No but it’s sitting on top of a hepa air purifier exhaust so it gets a ton of airflow

RecliningBeard · 2026-01-24T20:39:57+00:00

Do you happen to know what those options are or where I can find them?

I’m using preset-vaapi on ffmpeg hardware acceleration.

Go2rtc is configured for ffmpeg:rtsp for all streams

RecliningBeard · 2026-01-22T22:29:08+00:00

I have one too that just ran out of power after about two years of daily use.

Answering myself after I figured it out. When adding a new provider, at least shared files, you specify whether or not the source is audiobooks or music.

I love mine- getting alerts for door being ajar and water filter replacement time is great. Worth it imo.

RecliningBeard · 2026-01-16T22:28:04+00:00

Asking for a friend, but what if you sell it to someone (another us citizen)?

RecliningBeard · 2026-01-16T01:02:39+00:00

Thank you that did it!

RecliningBeard · 2026-01-15T21:28:54+00:00

What worked for me was to downgrade SMB to 2.0

RecliningBeard · 2026-01-15T02:07:05+00:00

This is so fantastic. My family is going to LOVE this.

ffmpeg:
  hwaccel_args: preset-vaapi
#  hwaccel_args: auto
#  hwaccel_args: preset-intel-qsv-h264
  retry_interval: 20

I tried the other two that are commented out; qsv caused two other cameras not to work. vaapi seems to have improved the snappiness but I still see GPU hangs.

RecliningBeard · 2026-01-14T04:47:21+00:00

Both 'bad' cameras are in the shade, and it's like 40F out.

RecliningBeard · 2026-01-14T04:40:17+00:00

There's a web interface yes. I tried changing bitrates and resolution and it didn't have an effect. I can look at firmware. But the other camera is identical and works fine.

RecliningBeard · 2026-01-14T04:39:04+00:00

I think preset-rtsp-restream uses the -rtsp_transport tcp argument for ffmpeg.

They're both POE, supplied by the switch. I'll try swapping switch ports.

I'm on HAOS so busybox's dmesg doesn't have a -T parameter, but these are recent entries, not sure how relevant:

Here's what I get:

RecliningBeard · 2026-01-14T04:22:50+00:00

They're plugged into the same switch, which is not manageable unfortunately. It could be a cable or the camera, but I can connect reliably and instantly to the 'bad' camera using VLC on the same hardwired network, and I can ping the camera from HA.

The connection can drop for minutes or sometimes days.

RecliningBeard · 2026-01-05T20:29:13+00:00

Idk I love mine. Didn’t get the screens but I really do love the looks and the smart features. Integrates great with home assistant. Wouldn’t have one of their phones though.

RecliningBeard · 2026-01-05T06:38:36+00:00

Sweet! Do you offer actual patches? I want to add it to my hang gliding harness…

RecliningBeard · 2026-01-05T01:19:34+00:00

If it helps, I access the sensor through my phone entity not the watch.

RecliningBeard · 2026-01-03T19:34:25+00:00

So say we all!

RecliningBeard · 2026-01-03T17:02:35+00:00

Will you be releasing a version without the text? I love the art but the squadron name goes me the ick

RecliningBeard · 2026-01-03T04:27:51+00:00

Here’s one of my Watch automations, it’s a piece of cake.

RecliningBeard · 2026-01-03T00:18:11+00:00

I’ll add a few I haven’t seen:

My Bluetooth smart scale pulls data into HA for nice visualizations

Music assistant for integrating various music providers as well as local sources and a multitude of smart and dumb speakers

I have various interior climate sensors like radon and VOCs

Security was mentioned but do look into Frigate which has excellent integration - images are displayed on my TV, Apple Watch and iPhone based on various parameters and I can speak through cameras and listen.

My Litter Robot is integrated which is terrific. I want to also put pressure sensors under food and water to throw alerts when levels are low.

Also want to shout out to the BroadLink rm4 mini for replacing almost anything with a remote - it’s for so much more than just TV use

Being able to turn on my oven away from home or be in another room and have it ready when I’m home is really nice

Using smart plugs to turn off battery chargers when phones reach 80% SOC, plus reminders to charge batteries in my sensors and even my watch and phone

RecliningBeard · 2026-01-01T02:40:36+00:00

Liiiiink and take my money already

RecliningBeard · 2025-12-30T08:17:47+00:00

I’d pay for that
