I’m still using my PRS-505 I bought in 2009, it’s amazing and l don’t think I’ll ever give it up.
FireWire also had DMA, all the good ports seem to go away.
Given they were required to add an interface to back up your recordings back in the 90s (I think it was the 90s), I’d kind of agree. The DVR itself makes a crappy long term storage, but the spirit is akin to a VCR, totally intended for saving video recordings.
Edit: after a lot of reading, I cannot seem to find a source for what I typed, I must be misremembering things, maybe FireWire was added by the kindness of manufacturers back then.
I used to frequent a thrift shop that gave books away for free, I saw a copy of Cloud Atlas and thought it would be a good read (it was). I accidentally for the dust cover a little then looked at the title page, signed first edition. Not worth much, but cool nonetheless.
I haven’t played in a couple decades but I loved how 2nd edition handled it. Humans have one racial ability above everyone else, we’re generalists. No special bonuses to see through illusions, no magical night vision, just the ability to be any class, and able to reach all levels in said class.
Personal opinion, but it should show a single state and if it is active.
Don’t give up too easily friend. I’ve been slowly moving some of my hone systems away from Window’s, and much like you, I’ve spent close to 20 years as a Windows admin. I have the advantage of using Linux on my always ancient laptops over the years and it is my personal opinion that Debian is the way to go.
Give LMDE (Linux Mint Debian Edition) a go, it is very familiar to navigate coming from Windows and isn’t going to have constant updates breaking stuff (looking at you Arch).
First thing after installing run apt-get update, then add the Nvidia drivers (add the source to your sources and install, if you need help, post back and we’ve got you!) and reboot.
My goal is to move to nice IP cams one day but for now I have analog cameras and a DVR in the closet hooked to a cheap monitor that’s paid for.
Try the app IPCamViewer by Robert Chou (here is a link to the lite version, I think there is an iOS one as well https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rcreations.ipcamviewer). It can view damn near any brand DVR, that at least let me view stuff remotely.
If you want to up it another level, if your old school DVR supports RTSP, you can probably feed that into something like Frigate for real time alerts and object detection.
I’m gonna be the guy seconding it. It actually makes it feel like your own device. My favorite part is how each time you go to install an app it asks you if the app should have network access before it ever installs.
