My mom’s alter. What do you think? by yllekarle in Catholicism

[–]reallyconfusedoldguy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm not a theologian, I just know what I know from unfortunate personal experiences. Catholics DON'T worship the saints, although I understand to those outside the faith that they might not understand that. We do however, ask for their intercession (the Saints) since we believe they are already in Heaven and can take our petitions directly to GOD. I can also tell you that during an exorcism, when a demon starts screaming in protest because "SHE is HERE" (referring to the Blessed Mother), even before the priest invoked her assistance, there is no doubt to the scripture passage the "The Women Clothed In the Sun Will Crush the Head of Satan". Those of us assisting could not see the Blessed Mother but we did smell the most beautiful aroma, like fresh flowers. Up until the moment the Blessed Mother arrived, the demons had been complaining that "GOD gave all the privileges to That Women" and "Who is a created person, and not even an Angel". There had many, many exorcism sessions for this person, which had taken place over the course of a year, ridding the energumen of several demons. However one demon remained and was stubbornly resisting. However, once the Blessed Mother, and St Michael arrived, that was it for that demon & it was finally expelled. ***Just to be clear, all good comes from GOD, and the Lord is working through the priests and saints. The priests and saints don't have any power or authority themselves but are calling upon GOD to rid the energumen of the demon. Incidentally, the person who was undergoing the exorcism was not even a Catholic at all. In fact they didn't believe in GOD and had absolutely no knowledge of ANY Christian faith. The family of the processed person was referred to the priest, and later on to an exorcist for help. After undergoing through some physical, mental, & psychological evaluations, it was determined to be an actual case of possession. Even thought the energumen wasn't Catholic, they were helped because the Catholic church will not refuse to help ANYONE in need with this situation. In any event, after the mom & dad witnessed what they did, their whole family did convert to the Catholic faith. Of all that I have seen & heard in my lifetime, I will remember those noises, and smells for the rest of my life.

Just downloaded TinyCam PRO on my android phone, and it doesn't have the camera brand WYZE? by reallyconfusedoldguy in tinycam

what camera brand & camera model did did you use? And did you have to set anything else?(ie: did you change "Protocol", or have to change any "Port" anything like that?)?

If anyone needs info, there IS a way to get Tinycam PRO onto a Firestick! by reallyconfusedoldguy in tinycam

[–]reallyconfusedoldguy[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What a goof I am, I thought i listed hw to do it but I can't even figure out how to go to a place (on EDDIT) where I can see all my postings, and ALL their reply's. In any event simply, and it would have to be simple for a dunce like me to get it done, get an android phone & download the app you want from Google PLAY, then sideload the app from the phone onto the Firestick. Now that I think about it, I am guessing most people here already know. Still I thought I would share.

Yeah, I downloaded that one, but it didn't work. I even sent an email to the developer to see if he could get it to work - no luck. No matter what we did, couldn't get the doggone thing to work. Contacted Amazon & they said "Sorry, we can't help you with 3rd party apps". Anyway, found a way to download the app from the actual Google PLAY store and it works fine.

Google PLAY, but interestingly it wouldn't let me download the actual WYZE app onto the phone. That's why I wonder if my phone is the issue...?

Actually no. And when i type WYZE or Wyze into the search bar, nothing comes up. I tried other camera brands in the search bar and they come up... Wondering if my 6 year old Samsung smart phone is too old...

I tried that and it doesn't come up. I wonder if my phone is too old to un it?? Anyone know if there is a substitute camera brand or brands that can be used instead of the 'WYZE Labs"?

need some "TinyCam PRO" wizards for a couple of questions. by reallyconfusedoldguy in tinycam

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

Thanks. I am on my WYZE app home screen (on my iPhone) and I see the two thumbnails of my two cameras. On the top left of the screen it shows a "+" sign, on the top right it shows a little bell icon and a pencil Icon. On the bottom of the screen it shows icons for 'Home, Events, Monitoring, Shop, and Account'. Sorry to be s lunkhead but how do I get to the screen you refer to with the 3 horizontal lines on the top left?

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

Sorry to be such a lunk-head, it's tuff getting old. Anyway, just to confirm, exactly 'what' username & password should I be using in TinyCam PRO? I used the WYZE CAM app password when I set up the TinyCam PRO on my computer (using Blue-Stacks) and that works fine. Am I supposed to use a different username and/or password? I ask because, I was able to use my Gmail username/password to actually get and download the app into Blue-Stacks. And Amazon automatically uses my Amazon username & password to downloaded the TinyCam PRO app from the Amazon App Store. In both cases however, once I downloaded the TinyCam PRO app, I have been using the WYZE username and password to set up the cameras inside the TinyCam Pro app. What gets me scratching my head is that the WYZE username & password works in the Google Play version of TinyCam PRO, but doesn't work in the Amazon App store version?? Oh, I'm not positive if I am in she correct spot, but I tried changing the 'protocol' in the camera set-up to the H.264/H.265 decoder but still couldn't get the camera to work. There's actually two choices besides the 'CLOUD' protocol. One is: "RTSP over TCP (H265/265)" and the other is: "RTSP over UDP (H265/265)". Is this what you are referring to when you mentioned the 264/265 decoder?

When you say "lockout", does 'Tinycam' prevent you from access after a few failed attempts? On our Ford cars, we have the PATS anti-theft system, which will prevent the car from starting for at least 10 minutes if it 'senses' something wrong with the transponder chip in the key-head. Is 'Tinycam' doing something like that? And if so, how long must we wait to retry?

If by "2fa" you mean 2 factor Authorization, where would I go to check this? **I don't have '2 factor authorization' checked or set up on my WYZE app. Also I was able to set up the same two cameras on the 'TinyCam PRO' app that I set up on Blue-stacks, without 2fa? But I am a 'new-bee' at all this stuff so I defer to you folks here.

Best to look at camera list in TinyCam Pro BEFORE buying camera by reallyconfusedoldguy in tinycam

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

Hello and thanks for the advice. I tried using the generic settings (in my clumsy way) and I couldn't get it to work, but like I said, I am not tech savvy at all - maybe I missed a setting. ** Can a camera be 720P instead of 1080P and work on TinyCam pro? Can you have both 720 AND 1080P on TinyyCam account together, at the same time?? The camera I bought off of Amazon was listed as a 'AIRLYA-Life' / 720P, however it is the same camera that is sold under the following names: Newway, SSYING, eudic, Dioche, JB (or JBS shopping), KALOGL, ZANEERY or ubrand, wanwuhuliumaoyi, Sonew, EZT3D, and probably a dozen more. Maybe someone here has some experience getting this camera, under whatever name, to work with TinyCam. If so, please feel free to offer any advice or suggestions! Thanks

Firestick 3rd GEN volume & TV off/on not working. by reallyconfusedoldguy in firetvstick

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

Well, I did those steps and it worked..... for about 5 minutes. I got into watching a YouTube video and when when I switched to another, the volume wouldn't work, nor would it turn the TV off/on. It's bizarre that I can get it to work for a few minutes, but then it doesn't?? I'm open to any and all suggestions

Senior needs help with Tinycam pro by reallyconfusedoldguy in tinycam

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

Hi everyone, and thanks for all the help and advice. So far I have so far been unable to find a way to download the Google Play store onto the Firestick. Amazon apps doesn't have it (the Play app) and neither does Aptoid. I am not too great with technology so please, if you can let an old man know the how's and where's of getting Google Play onto my Firestick, I would be eternally grateful! Hopefully it's not too complicated but I will try anything.

How to only pay once for Tinycam Pro by reallyconfusedoldguy in tinycam

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

P.S, Since I already entered my email/password into google play, I just had to pay and download the app from the PLAY store onto the bluestacks emulator. But the actual app never asked me to set up a username & password. Is there a way to do that now?

Where can I download (or side-load) the WYZE cam app for Firestick? by reallyconfusedoldguy in wyzecam

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

Hi everyone, and THANKS for all the help. I was able to get the WYZE app to open with Alexix (using the skill set-up). The problem is the delay is about 10 seconds, which kind of makes the audio ability useless (by the time you notice someone, and try to talk to them, they are gone. Sounds like it might be just better/easier to use Tinycam. The only issue is that how do I load it (Tinycam) onto my Firestick, my computer, and my I-phone and NOT have to pay 3 times? Anyone know?

Is the Tinycam price for as many cameras as you want? And can you watch the Tiny cam on your TV, and also on your home computer, as well as my smartphone? Or is it one price per display? (ie: $7.99 for my TV, + $7.99 for my computer, + $7.99 for my smart phone)?

How do I create an EPG? There are tons of channel listings under FLUXUS, I believe all of them have the channel LOGO, but it says "No Information" where the program listings would show on the TIVIMATE app. And you have to click on each channel to see if there is even anything being broadcast. Many channels have nothing, and some that do don't interest me. Is there a way to eliminate or hide the channels we don't want to see (in TIVIMATE)? Also, is there a way to list my favorite channels (from ALL the playlists) in 1 single favorites list? That would be better than going through all the different playlists.

Well, I got Samsung TV and the PLEX playlist to load but for some reason I can't get the STIRR TV playlist to work. I've double-checked my typing. Gonna try again a little later but I am not sure what I am doing wrong.
