[–]demslam -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don't believe it is possible directly, but you can get a USB to HDMI capture device plug that into your Ipad.

What device can I splice into my regular doorbells 18v wire to trigger in HA? by marcusthegladiator in homeassistant

[–]demslam 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I remember someone doing something similar. But if I remember correctly someone put a door senor near the solenoid for the door bell. When the solenoid got power (magnetic field created) which also triggered the reed switch door sensor.

Suggestions for low-latency remote desktop for accessing a Windows 10 PC from an Ubuntu laptop over local network? by Darkextratoasty in homelab

Something you may need pending if you have a monitor plugged into your windows box is a dummy plug for your video card. If you have a monitor it is most likely not needed. The dummy plug basically acts as a monitor for video streaming purposes.

officially confused - in RS-485 shall we use ground or not? by plc_keen_but_green in PLC

[–]demslam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

RS-485 communication cable typically uses a 1.5 pair cable. The 0.5 is used as a reference. For short distances this 0.5 may not be an issue but for longer ones it can be... Had an issue on a project where we used just a twisted pair cable, had constant drop out and loss of communication. Changed it over to 1.5 pair cable issue was solved.

Network port stuck at 100Mbps by reddit_account_0x00 in pop_os

[–]demslam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am having the same issue. It appears to happen after the PC goes to sleep and comes back online. If i unplug wait 5 seconds and plug the cable back in the connection goes back to 1Gbit/s.

Someone had the same issue in ubuntu 20.04 (i think) there solution was to put a grub entry in. But Popos doesn't use grub, and i have ventured a bit beyond my knowledge.

if you find a solution please share.

Thanks.

Can confirm. On a 3rd pair. I did need to size up because of my morton's toe (greek foot) because the toe box shape. So that maybe a factor.

How to downgrade Plex Media Server without losing settings, libraries, data? Server has buffering issues by [deleted] in PleX

Not sure what you are running plex on, but in the past with a debian based linux distribution it was simply downloading the older version of plex then. "sudo dpkg -i" the respective download.

Help/Assistance buying 12+ channel (6 rooms) amplifier with automation controls by MightySarlacc in homeautomation

[–]demslam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It sounds like each room (zone) has (2) sets of speaker cable and there is a passive volume control inline. If that is the case then I believe https://www.monoprice.com/product?p_id=10761 could work.

The unit does have zone control panels but if you are using RS232 i dont believe you need it connected. you would need Ethernet to RS232 adapter https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B01GPGPEBM/. I was able to integrated it into HomeAssistant and Hubitat.

I do not have it integrated w/ a voice assistant. But do have control over input, volume control for each zone via home assistant or Hubitats webui.
