i'm gonna be finishing off the security system i'm building for stuart30
Is this a skill of yours? I may be interested in a security system once I arrive back in blighty...
-
At work - being very busy
Converting some of the dos utilities to Windows
Managed to cross compile one to a Windows Console mode (Clipper to Alaska Xbase++) and deep in some new Visual Objects code now.

its just something to keep me out of trouble ;D
pretty straight forward just a pain to set up
-
Well, for my sins I will be at work all day, but do have the rubbish laptop (sony) next to me. Have just ordered some memory for my home PC.
And will be on and off OOF most of the day.
Oh yes bright sunshine here at the moment. Allthough our building has no windows, so no natural daylight, literally have to go outside to see what the weather is doing.

Sounds good, would you be interested in setting up a system for me, 2 cameras and must be semi permanent as I move house every 2 years.

(pics will be posted if he don't cry to much ;D)

Well this is not for insurance just for my peace of mind. I will be leaving the Shaguar on the driveway as my garage is essentially a workshop. Now that I am moving to an area with lots of Chavs I just want to know that if anyone keys it or vandalises it I will have video footage to maybe catch the little scrotes.

Now pondering if I should rip the Rover's engine apart now, or in a few weeks....
But I lit up the BBQ at lunchtime :y

you ripping the engine apart for a water leak

Not at work today :)
So been for a nice ride on the horse then did the oil and filters on my dads Rover 416.
-
Decided not to rip the Rover to bits yet, esp as we haven't really got a spare car to use at moment. Nor have I got the bits to put it back to gether again.
So ended up servicing the MV6, but ran out of time to do oil or fuel filter. Also did a well overdue coolant flush on the Kawasaki (right bitch as you need to strip off all the fairing), and an oil change (didn't get done last year :o). Embarrassingly, the oil came out almost like the day it went in :-[

insurance companies must take comision or have an agreement with professional cctv companies which will not surprise me !!

His insurance does care who installs or maintains the system, but does put down restrictions on the quality of the systems. As we found out when he had a raid a couple of years back, and the rather thing, despite saying it was recording, was recording gibberish - a common issue with cheap PC based solutions. It had been working fine for around 3 or 4 yrs before then.
I think insurance refused to pay up. Fortunately no stock was taken, and no staff injured (just shook up a bit) in the raid, but significant damage to display cabinets and security doors.

cant beat a few old "Monteray Gurads" To keep the trouble away

At work & had a busy day

As a cheap pc solution investor ;D up to now I have only suffered
image quality problems in dark ( and short life ups systems which needs replacing batteries frequently ) ..But thats due to cheap camera limitations..There are far more complex and better cameras and add on cards for those systems which may cost serious money..

Firstly MANTAHATCH, How can you spend every working day in a room with no contact from the outside world? No daylight or open window? I honestly could'nt manage that.
Anyway, today i went to Burnley & tomorrow i'm off to St. Albans, both run with a 40 ft container full of charcoal for your BBQ's this summer.
You can all thank me & my workmates when you're chowing down on your skewered delights!!! :y

There are decent PC (usually server based) based solutions, normally come in 21U racks ;D. And normally the wrong side of £50k with software...

the pc i use for my cameras are good quality day and night and the motion detection recording that is in use on it is spot on
never miss a thing even a leaf blowing past it will see it as movement and record every second of it :y

Desktop PC's generally aren't up to the job. Managability aside, there is a reason why servers cost more.
The problem is generally the cheaper software with cctv to be honest. Often loads of features, but too prone to failing. The power requirements of a PC need to be considered as well.

My PC based CCTV is on an 18 month old gaming machine so can handle most of what I make it do. I use the latest iCode iCatcher Console software, never missed a beat. It's the crappy eGay HK/Chinese cameras that let me down, I'm now changing them all for these...

Does that run as a service, or does it need to be an interactive session?
Inability to run as a service is a big issue for most of the cheaper systems, or often those with motion detection.

Each camera is a seperate service running as a node and the control panel is also running as a service. It's a professional software package. I know that Westfield's use it at the local super mall.

Just about to do a bacon and sausage and red onion buttie on crusty bread...... :P ;D ;)

One I'll bear in mind next time one of his dedicated black boxes turns into a smoke machine. Dependent on what the insurance company will accept though

I had to do some pi55ing about to get 2 pico cards working on it (I know... another let down) but I'm trying to decide to save a bit and get a Junior4 card (recommended by iCode) or stick a 16 port hub on the network and run IP cameras.
