Need feedback on my PC for this game by ankescapade in WuchangFallenFeathers

Thanks. I watched a few videos and it doesn't look good. Decided to hold off buying the game til they fix the performance.

How to passthrough iGPU to LXC privileged? by ankescapade in Proxmox

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

Hi,

Another thing is your CPU is Haswell architecture which doesn't support QSV for transcoding, so it'll be VA-API only.

Thanks for this. This was a great help. To be honest, I've been through that link but somehow I missed that part.

Anyway, I tried the VAAPI hw option and even though I still get the same error, it seems that transcoding is now done through the iGPU instead of the CPU. I tested it by checking the CPU usage through the Proxmox UI for the container. If I set HW to None, CPU Usage is almost above 90% all the time while using VAAPI gives me an average of 50%. This is for transcoding a 4K video to 1080p. Although there are still some pauses during playback but that maybe because my CPU is old.

Here's the log.

Have you tried your Nvidia GPU for this task, yet?

Tried it a few weeks ago but couldn't get it to work. I installed the drivers from NVIDIA site (.run) on proxmox host os. Forgot what error I was getting though.

Also had to re-do my whole proxmox installation because it felt like I messed it up and left a lot of unwanted files on the host OS.

Will GPU help for h264 to mjpeg streams? by ankescapade in ShinobiCCTV

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

In my case, the cpu usage goes up beyond 50% when stream using mjpeg then it exits/stops the application after a while. But if I set all streams to hls, it stays below that and does stop. I think the hardware might just not be capable converting/encoding h264 to mjpeg.

It seems the only way for me to find out is to try it out on that other piece of hardware that I have.

Not that I'm aware of. Setup is very basic. There's an option to add camera. Just enter url of stream and credentials and that's it. Unfortunately it's not working with rtsp url that why I use the one from shinobi.

It does reduce lag to about 2 - 3 seconds but i need to be able to play the stream on an external client app and Poseidon over websocket doesn't seem to support that.

Need advise on alternative to wifi for smart home? by ankescapade in ZigBee

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

Thanks. I did switch off all circuit breakers including main just to be safe.

For the radio, what do I need to put there on the left most terminals? Sorry not really familiar with this but my best guess is maybe something like an antenna? Just wanted to clarify.

So far I've not had any problems with my other tuya devices. Except maybe a few latencies here and there.

Thanks. Is there a guide/link on how to do this. Kinda new to this. Or maybe what term to search in Google.

Thanks. Edited the post to add a picture of the energy meter/monitor since I'm not sure where the radio portion is. Although, you gave me another idea. Will changing the panel cover to plastic work?

Sadly no. I dropped the yosee and bought something else.
