I'm looking forward to seeing how this goes.
I have a Raspberry Pi I've installed Raspian on and fiddled with a bit but haven't done anything else to. I haven't thought of a project I really want to undertake with it.

I have a Raspberry Pi 3 running links to my surveillance cameras - HDMI to my receiver and I can display on the TV by switching the input source on the remote. Pretty slick.

Andy, what games are on this? That is a very cool project and would be neat to play with.

How are you accessing your cameras on the RPi? Just put together one and would be nice to be able to pull them up on the TV.GeekwithaGun wrote: ↑Wed Jun 27, 2018 1:37 pm I have a Raspberry Pi 3 running links to my surveillance cameras - HDMI to my receiver and I can display on the TV by switching the input source on the remote.

The cameras have a RTSP URL in the configurations (they are Ubiquti Unifi IP Cameras), the PI is running a script which was provided in the Unifi user forums by others that had done this. The Pi refreshes the live video stream using cron and is auto started if the Pi is restarted.JakeTheSnake wrote: ↑Thu Jun 28, 2018 6:10 amHow are you accessing your cameras on the RPi?

The feeds are displayed using the "omxplayer", because I have Unifi cameras, the tutorial on the user forum was useful for me, not sure if this would be accessible without registering, but here is the link to the specific thread. https://community.ubnt.com/t5/UniFi-Vid ... -p/1536448
