I need to have a Preterminated Fiber Optic cable shipped from Anaheim to Little Rock. Probably ~175 lbs. The vendor gave me a shipping cost of $491. More than I'd like to spend. Does anyone know of a better (less expensive) option to ship a spool of FO cable? Falcon

Is there any reason this wouldn't run on the RPi Zero W with a mini-HDMI to HDMI cable. I've only used the 3B+, and I know it runs well on that. Falcon

@bp2008, First UI3, then this! Great work here. I have limited RPi and Linix experience. I tried 4-5 other tutorials that I found around the web and couldn't get any to work. Not sure why this one does, but I'm happy that it does. I even have it running with minimal delay via WIFI. Many...

@00Buck I really appreciate you pursuing that with Stardock. I've been poring over their website. Haven't seen any example yet of how 1 PC/multiple monitors would be employed. The downside for me is having to have a PC at each monitor. I do have a Minix Z83-4 Mini PC w/ Win10 to test with...

@TonyR Those Gefen units do come in HDMI and DVI options but, at ~$300 for each TX or RX, may add up to more than I need to spend. There are several $100 HDMI KVM over IP TX/RX pairs on Amazon that look interesting. I would need a single TX at the BI PC and then 5 RX/monitor combos throughout...

I currently use an Android box and a flatscreen to reach the UI3 URL from a location on the other end of my house. I also said in post #1 "I'm looking at options to monitor and control the BI PC locally". Looks like Teamviewer would do that. I guess regardless of touchscreen monitor or...

I appreciate all the responses. The BI PC will run either Win 7 Pro or Win 10 Pro. I'm trying to avoid having to have a PC (or Android box) at each location. Wouldn't Windows Remote Desktop or Teamviewer require that? Falcon

I view the BI cameras from UI3 as well. But I'd like the ability to access all BI menu options and make configuration/camera changes from multiple locations throughout my home. Falcon

I will have an i7-6700 based PC to run BI with 10 2MP cameras. I'm looking at options to monitor and control the BI PC locally, and from four other locations in my home. Control from those other locations is the part of the solution I'm trying to solve. I found units from GEFEN that enable...

I appreciate you checking. My password is pretty long and has some special characters. Perhaps that's the issue. I did also check it with and without the port after the IP, but that didn't make a difference. Falcon

I'm trying to determine the RTSP URL for a Dahua IPC-HDW5231R-Z that will auto login for a Raspberry Pi Using VLC Media Player, I'm able to see the video using either of the following URLs but with a manual login: rtsp://192.168.4.82:554/cam/realmonitor?channel=1&subtype=1 or...

The current plan is to set up two Raspberry PI’s with PiVPN. I’ll take one over there and set it up when I install the cameras. I will set the other one up on my home network. Question: Is it possible to configure the Raspberry PI on my network to make both the site-to-site connection (to...

Worked like a charm. I had picked that port semi-randomly and hadn't had any other issues with it. Should have paid more attention to that error message. Thanks for the help and the quick response. Falcon

I am connecting the BI PC to the LAN via WIFI until I get it moved to a better location. Then it will be hard-wired as well. Haven't had any issues I can contribute to the WIFI connection. Tried again on Android Chrome and Android Firefox. Firefox just went to a Yahoo search. Chrome...

I will report the exact Android/Chrome error message when I get home. Additionally, both the MINIX Z83-4 WIN 10 machine and the MINIX U9-H Android machine are hard-wired to the same router. The BIv4 server PC is reached via WIFI from an AP off of that same router. The paths from both MINIX...
