Hi all,
I had a search but sorry if I missed a post on this!
My mum has CCTV setup for my dad's care and she is getting way too many false positive alert emails. Even after I lowered the sensitivity, upped the video quality to max and brought alerting to a smaller area of the frame. I realise that this is a limitation of the alerting algorithm and type.. so things like sunlight set it off.
I am in the process of setting up outlook to download the images from the alert emails to folders so she can easily scroll through and they can be deleted from her email and then the folder after a period of time.
I would also like to be able to compare images and highlight ones that clearly have a person in them. Basically I would have these in the main folder and then the others that likely don't have anyone in them in a sub folder. Can anyone recommend of a cheap/free method of doing this?
Hi a friend has asked me to design a home CCTV system on a budget. I've come up with a rough design:
He wants to view CCTV on his laptop, phone etc. I don't want to broadcast all the CCTV traffic over his home network - so planning on using some layer 3 VLANs on a manged PoE switch. I'm an enterprise network engineer but have no idea on small business/home products. Could anyone suggest an 8 Port PoE Managed Switch which could be used for this application. Budgest is <Β£100, willing to buy used off ebay. Thanks
On August 31 at Prince Edward station, the police beat a citizen to unconsciousness and the station resulted in a lockdown. There was a long period of time where nobody could enter the area and no family members, lawyers or medical staff have spoken up about the people attacked. What exactly happened to the person beaten unconscious remained unknown, and LIHKG forum members, suspecting of death, call for actions to uncover the truth.

Translation:
Firstly, we need to contact all mortuaries in Hong Kong and use all sorts of methods to gather evidence (phone the staff, ask them in person, whatever you've got)
Secondly, we need to ask everyone we know for information, we have strength in numbers. There are rumours that the mother of the victim is a immigrate from mainland China, so we may need to print flyers and ask townspeople, particularly those in new immigrant residences!
Thirdly, we need to adjust our mentality and assumed a citizen died to force the police to answer.
Lastly, in addition to the police, there were other arrested citizens/ people who accompanied to Lai Chi Kok station/ MTR train staff at the scene. Please be brave and tell the world everything you know!
(Image transcription: Wanted - The man in picture was ganged up and beaten to unconsciousness by the police. The police immediately called for a lockdown on the station afterwards and dismissed all reporters and medical staff. No citizens were seen leaving the station. (TL note: some of the citizens who were attacked said they walked through train tunnels and escaped through other stations.) If you know the man in picture, please post to LIHKG and tell us his situation.)

PS: if anyone is afraid of receiving political persecution or silencing, first seek refuge in western countries' embassies, then blow the whistle.
We can act together with our friends and report any concrete information, so hopefully we can gather evidence from multiple sources.
Another post, although unconfirmed, suggests a even more worrying situation: the victim's whole family may get silenced.

It doesn't make you look rich, posh or powerful. Just makes you look like a tosser.
So I recently started messing around with using a Raspberry Pi HQ Cam, which has a C/CS mount for lenses. Somewhat on impulse I just snagged a lens on Ebay for like $4, which is a C-Mount Computar 12.5mm F/1.8 CCTV lens. Anyway, I've been attempting to find a copy of the manual for personal interest, but it seems the lens is not listed on Computar's website at all. After quite a bit of googling I did manage to find that its model number is likely JVL-MI12518 though, but it seems Google knows very little else about it. Anyone have ideas on where I might be able to find a copy of the manual for this thing?
