Little Guys 5: Three Of Them [MediaSite / NCR N3000]

The the unpopulated components in the little power button board 43:59 are LEDs and probably their current limiting resistors, not caps. LED footprints have a little chanfer on the cathode, while electrolytic caps have a shaded region. This was probably for debugging the MCU state.

I'm half expecting 'small barcode label' to be on a shirt some day

"I've seen it work before, I dunno why it's not working now." Yeah, sounds like a capture card to me.

Also, you should for sure rock the 3770 in there. That's what I'm running right now! It's a pretty good lil guy.

We just got to the screw-collared barrel jack and it made us angrier at the plain barrel jack for charging our ebike's battery.

Gee. Sonic Foundry used to be such a powerful name. It spawned speck-tackler software I STILL use today. Sound Forge. Vegas. Acid (although the dubious MAGIX owns and mangles all that software now, after Sony owned and mangled it for a while).

With some case mods and Linux, there are a few ways you could make this actually useful in some capacity

Want a verbose BIOS? I have an Evoo netbook thing that runs an AMD APU, and I think the OEM just took the default Aptio package and changed the boot logo. There's way too many things to configure in there.

Sonic foundry made sound forge which was a pretty popular music production software, if you haven't heard of SF then you're likely to have heard music made using their software at some point in your life! ☺

lol I recognize NCR, that's National Cash Register.

@44:34, ESD safe? I'm CAT safe! That should be more important.

I can understand not wanting to test everything on one nic and then again on realtek lol

Cable loom is cause people will often do shorr term setup for event and cables get yanked around

My gaming computer has a motherboard with this chipset and I can tell you it sucks. It has no overclocking capability despite having settings for it, it just doesn't work right or at all. The extra ethernet port is for remote management

many things are hurting my ears. your opinions are wild and mainly driven by a lack of knowledge about computer hardware in general. I mean it seems you have no idea, really. Its hurting my ears because you sound like someone who knows it all. there is so much to learn. for example: there are even LGA1200 thin mini itx boards on the market…. its perfect for desktop/office pc's because you don't need a bulky psu. its smaller and cheaper that way.
dont get me wrong, your videos are very entertaining and I have learned a lot over the years.

Love the startup sound part! Would be really disappointed if you didn't try! 😍😅

Maaaan, it's a pity I cannot find one of these cheap on the other side od the pond, in EU land….

Some laptop PSUs only have the earth for RFI reasons and there should be a symbol on the PSU that denotes this.

The NCR box is cool. I was a NCR employee

I find it awesome that you looked at the NCR n3000 I work with the newer version the n4000

Great video, loved the surprise fix and Soba appearance

I have some Kramer HDBT kit and there are some adapters for AV equipment with 5V DC collared connectors. I think the ones I have are Serial over IP peripherals.

Seeing this video dredged up long-forgotten memories of Mediasite as a brand; I used these extensively in a media role throughout the 2010s. Their product and particularly the software/cloud integration was pretty good. The recordings were saved on local disk and uploaded automatically, then the local copies were overwritten as the disk became full. You could edit the recordings from the web application (directly editing the cloud-saved version) or edit the local copy and reupload. Students liked the player webapp they used to view the recordings it made too, because it allowed them to both download the videos and to play them at 2x speed (was a unique feature at the time) so they could finish "going to class" faster. We deployed Mediasite units across a university campus for streaming as well as recording; it did streaming pretty well too… though I think ours were mostly the larger rackmount units which not sure if they had more features (they were still third-gen Core based). We'd particularly liked that the Mediasite recorders could be scheduled and remote-triggered — our department operated from a central control room and we could start recordings for a class across campus without having to actually walk/drive over to that building and set it up.

Perhaps of interest to this channel would be their AIO mobile recorders. Same/similar hardware in a box with a touchscreen LCD. These were hot shit for us, we'd deploy them to outdoor events on campus with just a single tech. Give them a tripod and camera, a couple lapel mics, and the mobile recorder box. Find them a long ethernet cable and they could suddenly have a high-quality stream from literally anywhere, which was impressive back in the early 2010s. I checked on eBay and it seems like right now there are only older units (they're all running XP but ours ran 7… and definitely didn't have firewire…), but they looked like this: https://www.ebay.com/itm/285776859092

AVer is known for making PTZ web cams

The T in i5-3470T means it's a low TDP version of the i5-3470, which they probably chose for either cooling reasons or power consumption reasons
