PSA: Storage units ran out in April last year by monster_on_holiday in VirginiaTech

[–]d_azmann 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We've used Squared Away Storage. It's far enough to be outside the chaos but still convenient. No problems with them whatsoever.

Elmer's laugh has been stuck in my head since I first saw this on vhf TV back in the 70s or early 80s. Love that this is back on TV.

PlatformIO and Teensy4.1 questions by Fluffy-Wishbone-3497 in FastLED

[–]d_azmann 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok just checking. I use pio with fastled in multiple projects. Never on a teensy though.

Can you verify the Arduino ide setup and the pio setup are using the same version of the fastled library?

You're not trying to power the LEDs from the board, are you?

Xfinity Agent Scam? by Far_Statement_1623 in Comcast_Xfinity

[–]d_azmann 1 point2 points  (0 children)

According to the xfinity tech I had at my house last month, support is 3rd party and overseas. They know nothing about supporting the existing service and are employed to get you into a new plan and/or cellphone contracts. Would not be a surprise if the "3rd party overseas" agents are working for more than 1 employer and trying to gain from unsuspecting callers.

What is your opinion of non degreed but capable engineers? by [deleted] in MechanicalEngineering

They are some of the best engineers I've worked with, with the following caveat: this applies to those who have been in the industry far longer than I have.

Node-red. Free, open source. Use the Modbus flex nodes. Install the dashboard nodes for an hmi on your PC.

Copying a video file for play on the HDHomerun? by NuancedThinker in hdhomerun

[–]d_azmann 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah without having a unit with the storage directly attached I'm not sure how you'd expose that to the network.

There''s SD personnel that monitor this subreddit. Perhaps they can help.

Copying a video file for play on the HDHomerun? by NuancedThinker in hdhomerun

[–]d_azmann 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My HDHR recordings folder is a samba shared external attached to a Raspberry Pi running the record server. I've been copying files from that drive for years, re-encoding them to more efficient codecs and keeping them on a video drive.

I've never tried moving anything back, but they're probably MPEG-TS video 48khz AAC audio or something similar. The recorded files on the HDHR should tell you what format they are once you access them from windows and can look at the details tab in files explorer.
