I am sure that someone has already thought of this but....
Does anybody have connections with the person in charge of the maintance of the CSUSB web cam ?
Two request in order of importance

#1 could it be made to stop farther left when full left is called ? Centering on marshall launch would be cool.

Then we could zoom in on the wind sock :) and the south launch :)

#2 weather cover needs cleaning(focus to infinity helps a little)

Another north day and the mind starts to thinkin.

I had the same thought this morning while I was fighting you for control of the UCSB web-cam.

Ha

By davedebogusone at Sun, 2010-01-31 18:38

Just got FIOS
Now the control of that cam is so smooth,frame rate is really fast ,BUT the one thing that bugs me ,cant go to full zoom on the marshall launch.

Perhaps one of the Paraglider guys can have a emergency landing???

fios

By JohnW at Sun, 2010-01-31 19:35

Fios.

I love fios, I had fios.

I had to go from fios to Cox.

It was a real crying game moment.

Sales dude worded the up grade just right.

By davedebogusone at Sun, 2010-01-31 22:34

More for less ? Well OK then ,do it.

Actual get to watch the 720 videos that Dave and Jonathan post and not have to wait and wait.
That new resolution they are using made it like a dialup connection.(hell most sites with all of the xtra content for that matter)

It has been rotated to the right

Just enough so that now Marshall Peak isn't visible at all. I hope the change is just a coincidence. I've had genial contact with the CSUSB weather station and webcam guy in the past.

They ran FiOS through my neighborhood a couple of months ago. I resisted. Finally salesmen came to the door and offered to waive all the set-up fees and such. I've got 15/5 that's more like 22/8 and unlimited long distance calls to CONUS (and Canada, I think, eh?) for about $10 more per month than I was paying for ordinary phone and DSL. The free long distance covers that $10 extra. Didn't go for the TV. I've had only a VCR or DVD player hooked up to the glass teat since 1995.

Dut Dooh

What the Hell ?
Did a hang glider pilot steal his chick ?
Thought I wrote a very subtle request with screen caps of
where it is now ,what just a slight nudge would cause on both full left and what it would take away on full right.
It would be so cool to run full zoom on launch
Maybe there's something in the north parking lot that he realized could be seen if he twisted it that way.

Or its something as simple as your other left,dude

Pretty please

Those Fios guys are

By davedebogusone at Sun, 2010-02-07 23:24

Those Fios guys are persistant.
The only thing that really speeds up is youtube.( localstuff, the csusb webcam,etc)
Dsl on a slow site ,still slow on fios ,its them not you.
When the WHOLE world is on fiber then it will be cool,except the small part about running out of that bandwidth too.
Then on top of the BS salesman ,the installer tells me my price is only 2 yrs ?

Sales dude didnt tell me that little part. Told installer then in 2 yrs I'll go with anothers wireless to spite them.

an lz based webcam

By JohnW at Sun, 2010-02-07 23:11

is not out of the question.

and actually not that hard.

There are a few nuts to crack, some $ to be spent (mostly on power), I'll broach the topic at the spring meeting.

Neat O

By davedebogusone at Mon, 2010-02-08 07:41

Now that would be cool.
That way we could spy on all of the launches.

Wew Good scare Ken.
Looked at it this morning its still the same as its been.

One thing I figured is a tweak would also change all of their presets a little.

But IMO would be cool if he centered on the windsock
and gave it its own preset.

But then again Im a old fogey that think those flying contraptions are cool.
