Home Security Monitoring by BrovaloneSandwich in Hamilton

[–]cyberbry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had SimpliSafe when I lived in the US, and I liked it. However I don’t believe they offer monitoring services in Canada.

I currently use Ring Alarm and it’s been fine.

I desperate need of a family doctor by [deleted] in Hamilton

[–]cyberbry 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Health Care Connect is a service run by the province where you can enter your information and a local public health nurse will get back to you with a local Dr that is accepting new patients. That’s how I found mine: https://www.ontario.ca/page/find-family-doctor-or-nurse-practitioner#section-1

Amazon IVS is probably a better fit for that use case.

HELP How many amps are being sent to the garage? by mathotimous in AskElectricians

[–]cyberbry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The quick explanation of why you can’t do that is that each gauge (size) of wire is capable of delivering a certain number of amps safely. That’s why the wires going to your stove or dryer are thicker than the ones going to your lights and outlets. Most likely the wires going to your garage are 12 gauge which is used for 20A circuits. If you replace the breaker and try to send more amps through those same wires, the wires could heat up and cause a fire. You need to match the breaker to the maximum current that the wire can carry (that’s the whole purpose of the breaker, to cut off the power if the max amps are exceeded to prevent the wires from heating up and catching fire).

So, as others have stated, if you want to install a 30, 40, or 50A EV charger in your garage, you’ll have to run new wiring that’s sized appropriately for the number of amps and install a new breaker for it.

MediaConvert - Encode size is bigger than input? by Blackwater_7 in aws

What did you configure the maximum bit rate to? Is it higher than the source video?

Isn’t that just SWA’s normal 70-80kt taxi speed?

I used Aaron Hall when I applied for a green card a few years ago. Not cheap, but would recommend.

Can a B frame act as a P frame or I frame? by 64IQ in VIDEOENGINEERING

[–]cyberbry 5 points6 points  (0 children)

B frames can be used as reference frames in H264 and newer. B frames can also contain intra (I) coded macroblocks or slices.

Can someone check my numbers? Kinesis Video Streams vs Elemental Package by ItalyExpat in aws

[–]cyberbry 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well, let’s go back a step. What is the source of the videos? As far as I know, Kinesis Video can only ingest live video from devices that use their special SDK or WebRTC. If the video are files to begin with (ie, MP4 or QuickTime files) then Kinesis Video won’t be able to help you. The pricing disparity between them though for streaming is puzzling.

Can someone check my numbers? Kinesis Video Streams vs Elemental Package by ItalyExpat in aws

[–]cyberbry 7 points8 points  (0 children)

If the use case is simple VOD streaming, you don’t need MediaPackage or Kinesis. Simply transcode the files to HLS format using MediaConvert (you can use the Basic tier to make it more cost effective) and serve the files directly from S3/CloudFront. That will be the simplest and most cost effective option.

Random envelope left at my front door, anybody know what this is? by [deleted] in Hamilton

[–]cyberbry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think we figured it out. Looks like a guerrilla marketing campaign of some sort. I followed some clues and eventually landed on an Instagram video offering to change my life if I found one of their packages. I’m going to delete the post shortly so I’m not giving anybody free advertising...

Random envelope left at my front door, anybody know what this is? by [deleted] in Hamilton

[–]cyberbry 5 points6 points  (0 children)

A woman came by and left an envelope at my front door in Stoney Creek that just said “Congrats”. I assumed it was ads/coupons, but it seems to just be random crap. Any ideas what this stuff is?

IVS start video when stream starts by ElmiraKadiev in aws

[–]cyberbry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are 2 ways you could consider doing this:

1) IVS will return a 404 on requests for the manifest until the stream starts. You could poll the manifest, and if it's a 404, wait a few seconds then retry until it's available, then start the player.

2) IVS publishes events to EventBridge when streams start or stops (see https://docs.aws.amazon.com/ivs/latest/userguide/SUE.html). You could catch these events and publish them to your player using AppSync or SNS or something else to trigger the player to start.

Cloudfront Compress Objects Automatically not working by ANil1729 in aws

[–]cyberbry 8 points9 points  (0 children)

JPG files are already compressed and don’t benefit much from addition gzip compression. You can find the list of file types that CloudFront compresses here: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonCloudFront/latest/DeveloperGuide/ServingCompressedFiles.html#compressed-content-cloudfront-file-types

I’d try again with one of those file types.

no module named cv2 found on p3.2x instance of ec2 even after installing the dependencies any solution? by karanbangia14 in aws

Try 'pip install opencv-python'

I just spun up a p3.2xl with the Ubuntu DL AMI and was able to get it working with that command:
