At this stage, there is no-one in the apartment next week until Friday if you want access. PM or call me and we'll arrange something if it works.

 

Ill get in touch when Ive sorted out a plan and when.
School hols now so Ill wait till that's done and need a bit more snow on the ground to ski on too.

 

Is it just me or has this cam not updated since 13:39. I have tried on both the phone and PC.

 

The cam is updating but the time is wrong.
I can see the images coming in on the server here direct from the cams and new images are incoming its just the time on VS cam images is wrong.
The file names contain the time which a script I run then strips out and uses in the image.

 

I have it updated to 15:07

 

It just refreshed (showing 15:07 now even though it is 15:37)...

 

You're welcome then

 

Thanks for the update.

 

See image here that shows cam images coming in

APIRA cam time matches the server time close but the VS cam is out by a lot.

Both cams send images every ten minutes, so VS server time showing 3:42PM meaning the image was created some time within the previous ten minutes before it was sent during 3:32 PM and 3:42 PM.
However the cam internal clock it used in the file name is 3:17 PM so the time the images was taken was actually some time between 3:32 PM and 3:42 PM even though it is marked in the image as 3"17 PM

Since the cams are soon to be placed I have noi plans to fix that in the means time and cant do anything about it remotely as I don't have the IP at LTB's apartment and seems to recall I did not set a port forward rule last time I set the cam up anyway to be able to log in to it remotely/.

 

@luvthabumps

Are you going to be up at Buller soon ?
If possible could you take a pic of the router set up on the bench, I need to add the POE power injector and a double adapter to plug in to 240v alongside the current power supply and just need to know what kind of double adapter Ill need to bring or if there is power strip so I need to bring a bigger one etc

Also, could you take a few pics of the cable where it runs through the hole in the base of the sliding door track, MX mentioned the cable was damaged but I need to know if the cable itself is damaged or just the black outer cover so I can bring some more outer cover or if I need to bring more to fix Ethernet or power cable if they are damaged.

Can send them to my phone.
Thx

 

What he said

 

We have school trials Monday so I'll be up for the day and able to get in then.

We did have a booking for the week but old mate decided to cancel last week when snow wasn't looking so good. Sucks to be him as he lost a big deposit ( Airbnb rules) and now next week is looking pretty good.

 

Love free money

 

Thank's Rich
Ill sort that out later on after the cams are up, I'm planning on seeing @CarveMan at some stage for some new gear so Ill have a chat to him then.

 

funny story actually - old mate cancels and then emails me that he hasn't got the full refund per the policy of cancelling more than 14 days out ( he was about 16 days). I said I'd look into it. At this stage I was pretty happy to refund all of it even though there was little chance I'd rebook it. Turns out that he needed to cancel more than 14 days out but also within 48 hours of booking to qualify for the full refund! He then escalates to Airbnb who contact me to say he has now decided to rebook - will I refund his non refundable deposit if he does? Spidey sense goes off - "sure, I'll refund the deposit he lost....after 48 hours of course, so he doesn't just cancel the new booking straight away and take everything with a virtual "up yours" to me".

What a surprise - he never rebooks. If he had have just been straight I would have worked something out with him but he thought he would stitch me up and in doing so did himself out of 50% of his $$

 

Snow falling might get him trying again

 

Have image from LTB (thanks)



Ill sort that, dab of silicone on it and a wall clip to get it out of the way.

 

Predictions for snow coming next week finally. Could be time to dust off the skis and test out the new cams?

 

Sitting right next to me waiting.

 

Would be great to watch the big storm unfold in glorious HD. I assume you won't be up there in time though?

 

It will be after the deed is done.
I'm going up for 3 days next Tue,Wed and Thur and cams will be going up then.

 

Timing your run for the clear weather and dry powder I see

 

Yep and just picked up new skis (174.3 Black Crow Orbs) and boots (Salomon QST PRO 120) from Angus at aussieskier so keen to give them a run on new snow.

 

Bit of ground work on cams this arvo
Fixed ethernet cable at VS cam and removed the temp unit at APIRA and replaced it with timer switch to turn on night light every night 6pm to 6am
Cam swap tomorrow
Not sure which will be done first

 

Nice bloke that Angus

 

Orbs are magic, turn on a dime, so easy to turn i was throwing in extra turns just for the fun.
Boots all good so fa too
Vid and pics to come.

 

VS cam is up

Look upon it folks



Click on the image to behold its massiveness.

I just pulled the hood back that is in shot top corners.

 

Thanks @DbSki !!!!!!

 

Awesome!

 

Was a long job
Had to fit an extension to the base mount to point it left.
Bit of drilling also some cutting of the hood to move it out from the railing too.

 

Awesome,
Thanks to all those who gave time or dollahs to make this happen.

 

Looking towards next week's snowfalls, even though I'll be about 300m away I'll be happily refreshing!

 

Well done to all involved - Now just to wait for the next snow fall so we can see it in HD!

 

Don't forget the guy who donated the balcony and internet access!

 

He is part of the all

 

Here I am all excited and alas - still have to move the mouse... Maybe @Richard needs to know the new camera is in...

 

@DbSki great effort. You have to be pleased with that result.
Looking forward to the next one.
I don't think you will be required to buy a drink at any ski.com function.

 

Very pleased
Night view is amazing

 

APIRA cam is done too
Just finished

 

Wow that’s a ripper. VS is still #1 but I reckon that’s actually a bigger improvement on the original.

 

For comparison, these are the old pics. Massive improvement, well done!

 

Awesome job, that wide angle is incredible. So clear at night as well.

 

That night view...

 

winner winner chicken dinner ..
