I think it’s time to close some of your open tabs.
I didn’t think that it would – I was hopeful that it might.
It appears that it is not opensource, unfortunately.

Idk anything about that community, but I feel like it’s safe to assume that Discord isn’t going to take kindly to the existence of a server that, from the name, appears to be centered around piracy. I haven’t checked (someone please correct me if I’m wrong), but I feel like it’s safe to assume that piracy is something that would violate Discord’s ToS. Just use Matrix – I implore you.
That’s actually not a terrible idea. Lemmy really needs content. It doesn’t necessarily matter what that content is, it Is just really starving for activity in general. So anything that you post is a huge help.
Y’all don’t update your services?
FYI, you can edit post titles directly. You don’t need to put an “edit” in the description.
Is Connect open source? I can’t find a repo for it.
It would put the more popular instances under enormous stress, if they had to serve every single subscriber from any other instance.
From what I understand, media (images, videos, etc.) is not cached. Does that not mean that, in the worst case where every post contained an image, the instance would be serving every subscriber, anyways?
Please correct me if I am wrong, but this feels like a flaw with how Lemmy (perhaps other fediverse apps as well, I’m not sure) is designed. Why do I need to store all posts made to a community that one of the users on my instance subscribes to? Would it not be better to simply store my user’s posts, and comments, and the posts made to any communities hosted on my instance? Why do I need to store information from other instances, and users?
it is storage that requires more attention

you could use a lower quality stream (…) for motion detection, then use that to trigger recording on a higher quality stream.
Brilliant idea! Thank you for the suggestion!
If doing CPU-based motion analysis
Whyd do you specifically mention CPU-based motion analysis? Does this idea not work with the Google Coral TPU, for example?
That’s quite a few cameras. I would do an audit on how many you will actually need first, because you will likely find you could get by with 5-10.
That’s a fair point. I haven’t actually methodically gone through to see exactly how many I would need just yet. The numbers that I chose were somewhat just ballpark off the top of my head.
You will also want some form of reliable storage for your clips
I am planning to give the camera server dedicated storage for the data. If I’m really feeling like splurging on it, I may look into getting WD Purple drives, or the like.
as well as the ability to back up those clips/shots to the cloud somewhere.
I’m not sure that I would need this very much. I’m mostly interested in a sort of ephemeral surveilance system; I only really need to store, at most, a few days, and then rewrite over it all.
I’m personally running 4 cameras (3x1080 @ 15fps, 1x4k @ 25fps) through my ~7 year old Synology DS418play NAS
Would you say that 15FPS is a good framerate for surveilance? Or could one get away with even less to lessen the resource requirements?
whereas I can tweak stuff on Surveillance Station quite easily.
What tweaking do you generally need to do for the camera server?
The space requirements get super intense with many cameras like that unless you compress the video.
I think Frigate uses h264 if I remember correctly. Also I’m not planning on storing and archiving the recorded data. I most likely would only save a day or a couple days. You do raise a good point about vacations, though - I should probably have enough storage for possible vacations.
Also if the cameras don’t encode then the data flow would congest your network something fierce.
The newtork that the camera feeds would be flowing through would essentially be isolated from the rest of the network. I intend to hook the cameras up to a dedicated network switch, which would then be connected to the camera server.
The biggest issue as I see it with so many cameras would be how to find interesting stuff in all that data.
What’s nitce about Frigate, is that it uses OpenCV, and TensorFlow to analyze the video streams for moving objects.
More Information can be found on Frigate’s website.
They’re viewable on Lemmy too!
