Is there a way to monitor a remote location using a video device?

I was wondering if there was a way to monitor our vacation home while we are away? Do I need a computer at the remote location and does it have to be on all of the time? All I have there is a dial up connection. Here I have a cable connection. Is there any way to do this inexpensively?

  • Is there a way of monitoring SCSM connector failures using SCOM

    I have an environment comprising SCSM2012 SP1, SCOM2012 SP1 and SCCM2012SP1 with Orchestrator forwarding the CI data and alerts to a 3rd party CMDB/ServiceDesk system. We have SCSM connectors for AD, SCCM and SCOM CI. There was a recent issue with SCSM UR6
    where the SCCM connector stopped working. I regressed the Microsoft.EnterpriseManagement.ServiceManager.Linking.Consumer.OperationalStore.dll back to the RTM release version and it all works again.
    I want to know if there is a way of monitoring each of the connectors in SCOM to ensure I get alerted if the status of the 3 connectors is anything other than "Finished Success" - maybe only generating an alert if the status stays in a failed status
    for more than 24 hours.
    There appears to be very little documentation on how these connectors work or what errors they write into logs. Any tricks or tips would be appreciated.

    On you management server, if you open Event Viewer, the logs are keep under Application and Services Logs Operations Manager. (Yes, the Service Manager logs are keep in the Operations Manager logs folder) In this folder you should find the event logs for
    your connectors. Just search for different sources to find the connector you want to monitor. Some of the sources include Exchange Connector, OpsMgr Connector, Data Connectors (AD connector), System Center Orchestrator, and Lfx Service (SCCM
    Connector). You could easily setup SCOM or Orchestrator to monitor these logs.

  • HT201304 Is there a way to monitor messaging on the ipad?

    Is there a way to monitor a child's use of messaging on the iPad 2?

    Try getdefender.com. I think it will work if your child is using your home wifi, but not if they are using 4g/3G. The child will know you are using it.  You can try http://kids.getnetwise.org/tools/ for other tools.

  • Is there a way to monitor Time Machine's current backup task?

    I started a second Time Machine backup to a NAS yesterday (in addition to my local TM Backup, which will now be taken offsite). It took a good 24hrs to finish, which was expected over WiFi. Since the initial backup, all the hourly backups have seemed normal...20-80 MB or so. Then all of a sudden this morning, I noticed the backup was taking longer than usual. I think it was indicating something around "1.09 GB of 1.09 GB", which seemed like a lot. I checked again, and the latter number had increased...something like "2.10 GB of 2.10 GB". I'm not running a VM, and there are no other obvious reasons the backup would be so big. I figured I'd let it go. I checked back again 30mins later and it was up to 69.1 GB of 69.1 GB.
    So what's going on here? TM typically knows exactly how much it needs to backup before it starts copying files. Why would the latter number continue to go up, particularly when there's no obvious reason for the extra data to backup?
    I tried opening the .inprogress pkg, but the folder size calcs weren't nearly fast enough for me to see where the backup was going. I tried the fseventer app, but it didn't seem very clear where files were being copied from; I could see where they were being placed, but since the backup is encrypted, backupd was writing to slices in the sparseimage, rather than an obvious hiearchy.
    Is there a way to monitor the files that TM is currently backing up...say in real time? Is there a debug logging mode for the backupd? Or is there a log of the files that were copied in the last backup? I'd prefer to see this in real time, so that last option would be least useful.
    I've poked through the great resources over at pondini.org, but nothing seems to really cover a backup that's in progress.
    Thanks in advance for any tips or ideas.
    p.s. I finally ended up stopping the really long backup; rebooted; restarted the backup manually, and this time it was a much more managable 500 MB. Additionally, I could see that during the final "cleaing up" stage, it removed the huge .inprogress file.

    Choose Connect to Server from the Finder's Go menu, provide the first computer's IP address, log in, and set it up in the Time Machine pane of System Preferences.

  • Is there a way to monitor the data usage on existing applications?

    I just noticed that a few apps are still using my data plan long after I closed the application.
    Is there a way to monitor that?
    Also I am being told that the icloud back up can consume allot of data (in the GB)

    About the only thing you could try is looking at the internet history on the phone itself. But there is not a site on VZW that will show WHAT the data was used for,

  • MDS switch: DCNM: Is there a way to monitor the traffic on every port within a port channel using DCNM?

    I am trying to monitor the load on an 8 port ISL between 2 MDS FC switches, on DCNM. 
    Since it is a plain trunk link, I am able to monitor the stats of every ISL port individually. 
    My question is, since port channel shows up as a single interface on DCNM, is there  a way to monitor the per port utilization in that port channel?

    Thanks for the update! If anyone else has the same question, the answer is that in order to extract the bus log information in the TDMS file, you should use the DIAdem Bus Log Converter tool. It is expected (though confusing) that the file looks mostly empty in the Data Portal until you use this tool to extract the information.
    Also, this is a fantastic tutorial from a very bright engineer on how to correlate data from multiple sources, such as raw frame files, in DIAdem. Highly recommended reading. It also has some data on the bus log converter.

  • I am having trouble playing MFX files in Premiere Pro CC. The audio is out of synch. Is there a way to monitor the audio correctly?

    I am having trouble playing MFX files in Premiere Pro CC. The audio is out of synch. Is there a way to monitor the audio correctly?
    Many thanks

    Chances are the pinnacle is producing .avi files or MPEFG1/2 streams - iTunes may know how to decode the audio but not the video. Download Handbrake and try running the Pinnacle files through it and adding to iTunes - use Universal format unless you have a specific device in mind.
    Keep copies of the originals.
    Another option might be to try to install Perian.  Can't remember if the Apple MPEG2 plugin allows MPEG2 to be played in iTunes.

  • I think ATT is screwing me.  Is there any way to monitor my  MB usage?

    I see odd charges like 50MB when I am sure I was not using my phone. Certainly, I would remember using 50MB, that is watching roughly 50 min of video.
    So, is there any way to monitor my usage on the iPhone? Some log that breaks down the usage by minute?
    Thanks

    I believe I may have found the culprit for me... It's one of two things - not sure which one (maybe a combination of both) since I did both at the same time. I just wanted to avoid data overnight, and not have to constantly turn off Cellular Data (if I didn't have to).
    For 3-4 nights, I left Cellular data off, just to prove the data reported early morning wasn't data deferred from earlier in the day. Sure enough, if turning off Cellular Data overnight, no mysterious data showing up early morning.
    Then I did these two things:
    1) Plugged iP4 into iTunes, CTRL-click on iphone and do 'Reset Warnings', then CTRL-click again and hit 'Sync', and then the "would you like to send Apple crash reports, bla bla bla"... hit "Disagree"
    2) go to http://oo.apple.com using your iPhone (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4228)
    After doing those two things, I started leaving Cellular Data ON over the last couple of nights.
    Low and behold - at worst, 1-2MB overnight and that's from some emails that came in overnight. No huge 40-50MB chunks, or even 100+MB chunks which I've also had...
    I don't know which of the two did it, or maybe a combination of both. I don't really care, all I wanted is to eliminate any "unapproved by ME" data being transferred overnight without my knowledge or consent. Seems to be working so far after two nights. Will continue to monitor obviously.

    I scanned an image and want to use the image trace tool, but it doesn't pick up all the lines.  Is there a way to darken the lines before using the image trace tool?  Help!

    If the scan is in B&W, then play with the Threshold setting here
    If it's in Color, then you will have to open the scan in a Raster editing software (like Photoshop) and play with the Brightness/Contrast settings to make the lines bolder.

  • Is there a way we can edit and improve existing youtube videos by using premiere pro? Just simple changes like having professional looking opening and closing credits?

    Is there a way we can edit and improve existing youtube videos by using premiere pro? Just simple changes like having professional looking opening and closing credits?

    Assuming you do not have access to the "original" video/project and the YouTube video is the only copy, there is a method. Try "YouTube Downloader" which is a free software that allows you to download clips from YouTube as .mp4 files. You can then edit with Premiere, and re-encode again for upload to YouTube. Just keep in mind that you are re-compressing the video so there will be some quality loss. The better the quality of the original, the better the copy will hold up.
