Gordon, Just turn off _javascript_ and browse the site in text mode… ;o) Daniel, I’d love to come down there, but it’s quite a long way from me (I’m out in the sticks near Holsworthy), so I doubt I’ll make it there – wherever it is – if you
use the non-flash site there’s no address mentioned anywhere – not good for any kind of business. (If it is there and I just didn’t see it – it’s still not visible enough
J) Anyway… I setup a small bird watching RasPi a while back – it was just a Logitech webcam stuck on the Pi, with Motion running on Raspbian. It was a great starting point
– virtually worked straight away. The biggest problem I had was with power and making the whole thing weather proof… in the end the project fizzled out as the birds abandoned the nest… Anyway – some pointers: If you’re using batteries, a Model A’s uses less power:
http://www.raspberrypi-spy.co.uk/2013/02/running-a-raspberry-pi-from-6-aa-batteries/ The Pi’s Camera module uses less power than a webcam (and 1 less USB port…), but I’ve not tried Motion with it You will need to steal a decent Tupperware container to put the Pi in, to make sure it doesn’t get wet
J Setup Motion to write data to a non-volatile location – by default (I think) it puts all the videos / photos in /tmp, so when you power it off it’s all gone… Hope that helps… Cheers, Steve From: list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxx]
