Mynd North Video Camera

[Dave Thomas]

The Video timed views have been turned off for a while as it was thought that they may be causing the main camera to fail to work if the network connection isn't good enough first thing in the morning - the camera used to fail to startup some mornings on rare occasions. It's back on now as we might have some Mynd days coming up for flying. Please post on this forum if the main camera does stop, or if the video fails to work. If it fails at the start of the day it usually stays that way all day until the next morning when the machine reboots.

We did change to a different mobile provider specifically to give a better signal on the top of the hill as need 4G for video, but it may still not always be good enough depending on weather conditions.

Temporarily turned off again as the battery power is too low as the video is using too much power for the winter. if we get a couple of sunny days to charge the battery it should be ok to put it back on. The low power may also affect the photographs and stop them too.
