Re: Port forwarding and dynamic DNS

otherwise register one subdomain for every machine How would this help though? Because I would still have put multiple port 80 re-directs for each new sub-domain in my ADLS modem settings. What I did try is to make another entry in the settings for the same raspberry pi registered under privatedns....

Port forwarding and dynamic DNS

I have created an account on freedns.org and followed their instructions on creating a subdomain off one of the public DNS servers. I then followed their instructions for setting up this dynamic DNS in my ADLS modem router settings. So now I can type this in to iexplorers address bar "http://gregsra...

Re: Installing crosscompiled ffmpeg

I ended up following this https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/CompilationGuide/Ubuntu it it worked. I was then able to run raspivid through ffmpeg without errors. However my first attempt to stream the camera to youtube like this: raspivid -o - -t 0 -w 1280 -h 720 -fps 25 -b 4000000 -g 50 | ./ffmpeg -re -a...

Re: Arduino on raspberry pi

There is indeed something else to uninstalling software on raspberry pi "sudo apt-get remove arduino" and "sudo apt-get install --reinstall arduino" don't work. You have to go into preferences=>add/remove software and uninstall from there. Then when you run "sudo apr-get install arduino" again it in...

Re: Arduino on raspberry pi

There must be something else to it because sudo apt-get install --reintall arduino just does not work. It does not re-install arduino as it does the first time you run this.

But then I tried to transfer a whole lot of additional libraries from my PC version of arduino IDE to the /usr/share/arduino/libraries folder. I found that there were file naming problems with linux no...
