Raspberry π

Zwift is installed and running... can't remember if my sensors are Bluetooth... could be epic fail on my part, I connect with ant+ on phone & tablet.

Better go get kitted up...

How was the experience? My new place has a garage and I have a smart trainer now so might join you. Just need to buy an extension cable long enough

How was the experience?

It was relatively straightforward which was good. Had to spoof as pixel3a not 2 as that is no longer listed.

First zwift installation was very quick and it then didn't load giving an error that seems common based on comments from others. I removed it then reinstalled it which was a longer process and it loaded fine after that.

I then had to re-set app permissions for zwift in omni before it picked up and paired with the Bluetooth sensors, also decided to turn off my phone as had ant+ connected them to that and think that might have been stopping them pairing.

I could then pair them in zwift and it was good to go.

For me the good thing is bigger display, although I'm sure I could share the tablet view to bigger screen with less effort.

The other riders were sometimes invisible and the movement is a few fps from being smooth as butter but those are no bother to me - it might be if I was in a srs bsnss "race" and was looking to know what was going on in the bunch and to draft etc.

Pic of me in action, not got enough levels/sweat drops to look stylish yet.

a garage

Congrats, you've escaped Chorlton? A garage is on my need list.

Just need to buy an extension cable long enough

Or solar panels & a bank of deep cycle batteries so you can go off-grid garage zwifting? DIY Thread >>>>>>

Sounds great! Will pm re living situ :)

Are there any weatherproof raspberry pi cameras out there (wide angle with IR, this kind of thing but weatherproof https://thepihut.com/products/raspberry-pi-camera-board-night-vision-and-fisheye-160-lens-5mp )?

There seems to be a real dearth of weatherproof cases that can take a camera (pretty much only the Naturebytes one) or other weatherproof stuff.

My twitter timelapse project has gained some attention today. It seems the done thing is to share via github so I'll be looking at that over the weekend.

In other news the last zwift update has stopped it pairing up via the pi400.

I can't get past licensing. Seems very complicated to choose one. I might skip and go without for now.

In a nutshell I'm happy for anyone else to use the code, just feel like they should not make mega£££ from it. Is that not in the spirit of things?

^ there might be a better thread for that?

You're creating a new repo and they are asking if you want to include a license?

They have a good page that explains the gist of each licence, but you absolutely do not have to include one if you don't want to.

I typically use the MIT license, one of the more permissive and relaxed licenses, because I don't care what people do with my code and I've certainly gained a lot more from the open source ecosystem than I'll ever be able to contribute back.

They seem to recommend it? The link you post links to another which explains no licence = issues.

This will be my case too. As unlikely as it is I would be a bit miffed if someone lifts the code, makes a tidy profit from it then somehow prevents others doing the same. I'm probably overthinking things.

Nice one, I'll check it over later. About 2am I opted for this one but guess can change?

I've gone with cc non commercial share alike licence. Not sure if that breaks any github rules though as it isn't a listed template.

Ah, that's where the Tod light parade on my Twitter feed came from. I was initially a worried it was going to be a bit Wicker Man-esque.

I was gutted it rained heavily when the big parade came through early, but it meant I could enjoy the moment and nothing was going to burn.

The fox I got in later videos was amazing! Pics on the mobile phone photos thread shortly...

Github thingy here

No-one answered this. I've found nothing other than naturebytes.

Lots of bodged tupperware cases on instructables. I'm waiting on an ir fisheye board as it happens and already pretty sure I will be bodging to waterproof it. Have hedgehogs to film this summer.

I'm looking at a CCTV effort so currently planning on bodging one of these.

Which IR fisheye did you go for?

Ace, be interested to see the end result.

I went for the zerocam one from pihut, is that the one you have?

I would have gone for MIT or Apache 2.0 personally, but this choice means no-one will make mega money off your code. It'll put off anyone planning to use it in a commercial product.

The likelihood of anyone making mega money off your code is virtually zero, of course.

I did realise that but the gnawing paranoia would have been strong regardless.

Anyone after a brand new Pimoroni BME680 and load of jumpers? £10.00 Donation to the forum?

Now taken.

Ur famous m8!

Excellent! Good work @rhb, and love the forum reference.
