    Enough Lens/Camera for LPR?

    Jeebus. I'd have monitored those cameras for only $2,400/year.

    Enough Lens/Camera for LPR?

    What's the deal with Flock? I see from above that their reputation is for "expensive," but how about functionality? Are they good cameras? Some other taxpayer is paying for these :highfive:, so the cost doesn't bother me :p

    Enough Lens/Camera for LPR?

    They're in. Anyone recognize the model? The downside is that I have no access to the video. The upside is that LE does, and I had to do zero work, and contributed zero dollars.

    New Reolink Wired POE Doorbell Cam ?

    It's fine. My parents hardly ever get packages. They just want to see who's at the door.

    New Reolink Wired POE Doorbell Cam ?

    So I did the swap yesterday, and I think I might be able to exonerate the AD110, because the Reolink camera wouldn't stay on, either, when I first connected it to the doorbell wiring (after having done initial setup via the included wall wart). I put a voltmeter on the wires, and there was no...

    BIG Owl on my Trail

    Coyote with Rabbit, Thoroughbred Trail, 07/16/24 Another coyote with prey. This time I'm pretty sure it's a rabbit, based on the ears.

    BIG Owl on my Trail

    Tail-less Raccon on Thoroughbred Trail, 07/15/24 Two chonky raccoons strolling by. The second one seems to have lost its tail, possibly to a coyote. But it doesn't seem to bother them.

    5.9.4.0 Triggers Webroot Malware Alert for NGROK.EXE

    Where do you find the What's New notes? When I look at the official update thread, all the recent entries say pretty much the same thing:

    BIG Owl on my Trail

    Coyote with Prey, Thoroughbred Trail, 07/11/24 It might be a cat, but it looks more like a raccoon. It also looks too big to be cat. Raccoons are fierce! I'm surprised that a coyote was able to catch one.

    This is my home, where I don't have a static IP, so my WAN IP is subject to change any time. I'd rather not use ngrok, for various reasons. I currently have WAN port 81 forwarded to 192.168.1.3:81, where BI runs, but that's on a separate network segment that's firewall off from my important...

    My pfsense box serves as its own certificate authority. Can I generate a certificate from that?

    More: I had set the TLS flag options in Edge, not Chrome. But I also set them in Chrome, and then used Chrome, and got the same result and same log entries.

    More: If I point Edge to: https://192.168.1.3:8080/ui3.htm then I get a warning about certificates (which I also got when using the WAN address, but forgot to screenshot): and then clicked Advanced, and then Proceed, and I get the same "didn't send any data" error in Edge. Logs show...

    I'm trying to get BI working through stunnel on one of my machines, and I'm almost there, but not quite. I followed the steps from the 5-year-old video TonyR linked above, and found that one missing step is fiddling with the Windows firewall. For some odd reason it enabled stunnel inbound for...

    New Reolink Wired POE Doorbell Cam ?

    Reolink has this comparison on their amazon product page: What an odd design choice. I had no idea why they chose to tie the FOV to the color :facepalm:. The black FOV seems to match what I get from my black Reolink POE doorbells, right down to the glorious pincushioning: I'm considering...

    5.9.4.0 Triggers Webroot Malware Alert for NGROK.EXE

    Looks like Ken is no longer bundling ngrok.exe with the BI updates. I just installed 5.9.4.7, and Webroot no longer finds anything scary. I was looking through the remote access wizard and the help files, and somewhere (can't remember where) there's a note about ngrok.exe being identified as...

    BIG Owl on my Trail

    Hurricane Coyote, 07/09/24 How many coyotes do you count? Hard to tell with them swirling around like a hurricane. The group makes 3 passes across the cameras.

    Armcrest support is a joke

    When you installed the Reolink unit, did you also install a Reolink-specific power adapter thingy? Or do the different doorbell-wiring-compatible cameras all use something similar/compatible?

    USPS - Don’t mind me just passing through!

    BIG Owl on my Trail

    Coyote Family of 8 on Thoroughbred Trail, 07/06/24 It looks like two parents, a yearling, and 5 pups, though it's getting hard to tell because the pups are so big now! They go up the trail and come back down a few hours later. This was preceded by the Coyote Cacophony, a few minutes earlier:

    5.9.4.0 Triggers Webroot Malware Alert for NGROK.EXE

    It’s also possible that the installer is pulling a compromised version of ngrok. Not likely, especially if he’s compiling from source, but possible if he’s using a binary that he got from somewhere else. Has anyone else installed 5.9.4.0 and scanned with security software other than Webroot?

    5.9.4.0 Triggers Webroot Malware Alert for NGROK.EXE

    I just installed 5.9.4.0 on two of my BI servers, and my security software, WebRoot, immediately flagged NGROK.EXE at %temp%\pft7d4b.tmp\ as W32.Malware.Gen. I immediateliy rolled back to 5.9.3.4 and scanned both machines, to be safe. Is this a false positive? Does a perfectly safe NGROK.EXE...
