[01:17] testing.
[01:21] Testing.
[01:25] Testing the mic.
[01:29] Testing the mic.
[02:19] Uh, welcome to me working on
[02:24] uh, streaming wirelessly from the Action
[02:26] 5. This is a test.
[02:30] It may be useful in future environments.
[02:34] And I want to see if I can get this
[02:36] thing going. All right.
[02:42] Can you hear me?
[02:45] I am typing.
[02:50] Beepus.
[02:52] You can good. Fantastic.
[02:55] Um,
[02:57] so what I've been working on is getting
[03:00] the Action 5 camera
[03:04] uh streaming to my phone
[03:10] and then it's streaming from here
[03:14] uh to the computer.
[03:17] So, we're only really monitoring it
[03:21] uh
[03:23] uh from the computer.
[03:26] But as I think my goal is that, you
[03:31] know, we can do the podcast and not need
[03:34] the computer here and be able to go to
[03:36] friend's house and just as long as I
[03:37] have Wi-Fi with the phone,
[03:41] be able to have the Action 5 and be able
[03:44] to stream on YouTube that way. Well, why
[03:45] don't you just use your phone? Well,
[03:49] you know, this is another fun piece of
[03:51] technology.
[03:53] like really um you know I haven't tested
[03:58] uh uh YouTube streaming on on the phone.
[04:01] Last time I tried to do uh live
[04:03] streaming on the phone,
[04:06] YouTube only allowed you to have a video
[04:09] vertically.
[04:12] And what I want is, you know, obviously
[04:15] landscape and I also want to have two
[04:18] mics to be able to uh uh record that
[04:22] way.
[04:23] So,
[04:25] um, hey, it's Matt. Yeah. Sound check.
[04:27] Uh, what's that built-in furniture
[04:28] behind you? Well, now since we're
[04:30] totally mobile
[04:33] and um as long as I'm as long as I'm
[04:36] within shot of the phone
[04:39] uh and I can use the action 5 to do
[04:41] this, you know, we can go around what's
[04:43] what's behind me is a builtin office
[04:48] and I can also turn on the overheads
[04:52] which look like that.
[04:55] Uh,
[04:57] this is number shelves.
[05:01] And
[05:02] I guess I could have had the computer
[05:04] here.
[05:05] Um, but that's not good sponge,
[05:10] you know, if you're beating off and then
[05:14] someone just comes in behind you. Um, so
[05:20] and also I don't think I think my
[05:22] monitor is bigger than that space right
[05:24] there. But then also I'm dealing with
[05:28] having wires come down around here cuz I
[05:30] think my nearest outlet is over there.
[05:32] I'd have to have wires going around. I
[05:33] mean, this would work and it's kind of
[05:37] nice and imposing to have this here, but
[05:39] then I'd also be dealing with uh
[05:44] um these blinds right here. And then I
[05:47] just like having my case here that I'm
[05:50] always working in and out of. Um uh
[05:54] please tell me that table is temporary
[05:56] and you're getting legit. When you say
[05:58] table, you mean this buffet table that
[06:01] I've been using as a desk? No, that's my
[06:06] permanent desk. I've been using that as
[06:09] a desk since college. I'm very attached
[06:13] to this buffet table. It follows me
[06:15] everywhere. Um, it looks awesome for
[06:19] writing a book. Yeah, it's very Wes
[06:21] Anderson. Wes Anderson. Obviously, I
[06:23] need more stuff on the walls. Um, but
[06:26] that also means I could take my phone
[06:28] with me
[06:30] and uh go outside.
[06:35] Um, someone says, "Is an LS swapped RX8
[06:38] a good first car?" You're you're you're
[06:40] just messing with me.
[06:45] So, since you're with me, let's do a
[06:47] test of the wifi.
[06:50] Um
[06:51] cuz the wifi it's going to get dark here
[06:54] in a minute.
[06:57] Uh the wifi
[07:01] is
[07:03] in here. This room was going to be the
[07:06] podcast room. And I still do want it to
[07:08] be this this way. And it's not a problem
[07:11] to do uh an offline podcast to just use
[07:15] the action five for that.
[07:18] and then be able to
[07:23] have this nice background in here. Also,
[07:25] this chair is awesome. Um, it's not
[07:28] mine. My friend K bought this thing for
[07:31] like two bucks.
[07:33] Two bucks at a thrift store
[07:37] and uh he just says, "Yo, can I put this
[07:39] here?" And I said, "Please put it here."
[07:42] But the chair is amazing.
[07:48] It's almost kind of like the chairs that
[07:50] they have uh on the Adam Freeland show,
[07:54] but this this this chair rules. I I get
[07:57] into it and I don't want to think, but
[07:59] since I moved from a very tiny house
[08:01] into this big one, we have all this
[08:03] empty space on the walls and it's been a
[08:06] year since I moved in. So,
[08:10] and and I still haven't decorated. Like
[08:12] I have my little pictures here from the
[08:15] old house that that nicely filled in
[08:18] stuff. The only thing that fills in the
[08:21] space is this gigantic mural on the wall
[08:24] uh from the previous owners. Of course,
[08:27] I need to go back to the back in the
[08:30] office. And then check to see the stream
[08:33] is still going. It's going good. Uh
[08:37] Matto says, "Yeah, that's a steal."
[08:40] That's the one downside. um doing the
[08:43] stream this way since I can't check my
[08:45] phone. Um
[08:48] because my phone is locked in the DJI Mo
[08:52] app
[08:54] and
[08:55] I'd have to log into YouTube. I actually
[08:58] that's a test. Oh, we got a live we got
[09:00] a
[09:02] we got a pay me money thing. Durk says
[09:05] give a uh give a good hoot for JS man if
[09:09] not.
[09:10] I I don't know what that means. A hoot
[09:12] for jorts.
[09:15] I haven't worn jorts in forever.
[09:20] Mr. Regular, what are your thoughts on
[09:21] the impact of AI from the pediological
[09:23] perspective?
[09:24] You know,
[09:27] I've lived through the original dot
[09:29] bubble and I'm ready for the bubble for
[09:32] uh uh for AI as well,
[09:36] but I think I need a beverage. So, let's
[09:39] see how the wifi transfers
[09:45] from the Action 5 to my phone
[09:50] to YouTube. And I wonder if it would be
[09:54] easier, since we're on a tether, for me
[09:58] to
[10:02] leave my phone
[10:06] here,
[10:08] right there,
[10:11] cuz that's the phone is what's
[10:14] sending
[10:17] the stream signal, not the action five.
[10:20] All the action five has to do is go
[10:25] to my phone, right?
[10:29] So,
[10:31] but since I'm doing this solo,
[10:34] I don't know if this is actually
[10:36] working,
[10:37] if just having it one room away is
[10:40] enough.
[10:46] So, what sort of beverage would I like?
[10:49] I think
[10:52] I'm going to get white girl about it
[10:56] and pour myself
[11:00] some
[11:01] pumpkin spice.
[11:04] What is this?
[11:08] Pumpkin spice cream laor. Okay. So,
[11:14] it's like uh
[11:21] it's like eggnog
[11:23] but not quite.
[11:26] This is leftover from the party.
[11:28] Honestly, I like this stuff.
[11:31] And yes, this is the bar. Of course,
[11:33] also if we can stream from the phone
[11:34] like this and the stream's working
[11:37] really well
[11:39] and cuz that was our problem down
[11:41] before. We didn't have enough Wi-Fi to
[11:43] stream in the bar. But now if we do have
[11:46] enough Wi-Fi because it only has to go
[11:48] to the phone out there in the other
[11:49] room, we could have two mics right here
[11:52] and just do the podcast from here,
[11:54] right?
[11:56] That would be a goal. Of course, we
[11:58] would also need someone down here on a
[12:00] tablet or something just to monitor the
[12:04] [music]
[12:05] monitor the the chat going by, right?
[12:09] So, I can talk to you.
[12:16] We got into this stuff the other night.
[12:19] Wild Turkey. It does make good whiskey
[12:21] sours with like the pre- whiskey sour
[12:23] mix. So, that's pretty good.
[12:32] All right, let's go up and and see if
[12:35] the stream because I can't actually see
[12:37] what you're saying, chat. Let's go back
[12:40] up.
[12:43] Be great to get these things working
[12:44] again, right? Ring, ring, ring. A real
[12:48] rotary telephone in this house.
[12:51] Oh, wait. If it actually is working,
[12:53] let's do some ASMR stuff.
[13:13] Cool.
[13:19] I think this cream laor would taste
[13:21] better if it was a little warm.
[13:26] Maybe the warm would take because it
[13:28] still has an edge to it. Okay,
[13:32] now that I'm back in here, let's just
[13:34] double check
[13:36] to make sure
[13:40] that
[13:42] All right, VHS Candy Wild Turkey reminds
[13:44] me of freshman year. Oh, super chat. Any
[13:48] plans on reviewing a Range Rover
[13:49] Classic? Yeah, I'd love to get my hands
[13:50] on one. I think someone that I met at U
[13:56] A&E offered one. Thank you so much and
[13:58] thank you for the donation.
[14:01] Um,
[14:05] is anybody else getting a crackly stream
[14:06] or is it just me? Okay, so maybe it's
[14:08] Maddo got a crackly stream when I went
[14:10] downstairs.
[14:12] Um,
[14:14] still have signal.
[14:17] Uh, 70s vibes. Yeah, looks fine.
[14:21] swaps in general.
[14:24] Why does Mr. Regular give me Rick
[14:26] Sanchez vibes? Says, "Pretty streamless
[14:28] to me. Audio crackle here and there."
[14:30] Okay, so we're still running.
[14:35] We're still having a problem
[14:40] uh
[14:42] getting good Wi-Fi down in the bar.
[14:46] Okay.
[14:49] All right. Five by five at the bar. Bit
[14:51] of an audio glitch. Also drink for
[14:54] Tibberon owner. Okay. So, we still have
[14:56] to be upstairs
[14:59] and to to get a good Wi-Fi signal.
[15:03] If the camera was stationary or is it
[15:04] fine when you were moving around it was
[15:06] crackling?
[15:08] Okay. So, was that the crackling just
[15:10] from me touching the mic
[15:14] or was it crackling when me touching the
[15:16] camera? Interesting.
[15:19] I think it may be the mic's crackling
[15:21] and not have the Wi-Fi signal. Okay.
[15:25] Interesting.
[15:30] All right. Hey, hey, hey. The CB 400 SF
[15:34] Super Sport VTEC's greatest motorcycle
[15:36] with tastes and something something. I I
[15:38] think a 400 cc bike is fantastic no
[15:41] matter how many cylinder cylinders it
[15:43] has.
[15:45] Me thinks it's the lapel mic. No, it's
[15:47] when you were moving around the house.
[15:50] Interesting.
[15:53] All right. Well, let's see if it
[15:57] crackles again
[16:00] when we take a jaunt
[16:03] out here.
[16:08] I still have my phone on me. Yeah. When
[16:11] we take a jaunt to the kitchen
[16:20] and take this pumpkin spice lor stuff
[16:24] and give it a zap, see what it tastes
[16:27] like.
[16:29] I am freaking hungry
[16:32] because I'm still on this diet.
[16:35] And the diet uh is me trying to get to
[16:39] 169.9 lbs so I can get under 70. I
[16:43] weighed myself this morning at the gym
[16:45] before I was hydrated and I was 172.4.
[16:51] So in terms of morning weigh-ins, I have
[16:53] three lbs to go.
[16:56] I've been on the diet since
[16:59] uh throughout the entire month of
[17:01] January. [music] So, all right. How does
[17:05] this pumpkin spice lor taste? Warm.
[17:11] Still too warm. Too warm.
[17:14] A little different.
[17:20] How you guys doing? Um,
[17:23] I really want to drive the giveaway car
[17:26] more. It's the uh 95 Toyota Starlet.
[17:29] It's right now under the porch protected
[17:31] from the weather.
[17:33] But in order to get it out, we would
[17:36] have to dig a path through the yard. And
[17:40] like most of the country, what's been
[17:42] going on out here is that the or most of
[17:44] the East Coast after the first light
[17:47] snow, then came sleet. And the sleet
[17:51] compacted and in some parts, it's enough
[17:54] to support my weight so you don't sink
[17:56] into the snow. It's like sheets of ice
[17:58] out there. Now, thankfully, my roommates
[18:00] and I were able to clear everything out
[18:03] with help from the snow [ __ ] 9000,
[18:06] which is what I named my new to me
[18:09] snowblower. Growing up, my parents never
[18:12] allowed me to have a My dad was against
[18:15] snowblowers,
[18:18] but he wasn't against letting the
[18:20] neighbors
[18:21] bring their snowblower over and giving
[18:24] us a hand. He was fine with that. So, I
[18:27] went on a Facebook marketplace and
[18:29] brought bought a Craftsman snowblower.
[18:32] This ancient thing put furry stickers on
[18:34] it. Anybody who comes over with a
[18:36] Sharpie can I felt something sticky. Um,
[18:40] can come over and spray stuff or spray
[18:44] stuff. What am I talking about? Can
[18:47] write stuff on the snowblower. and the
[18:50] snowblower made it through the the first
[18:53] bit of the
[18:55] uh the big snow day and then the
[18:57] self-propelled
[18:58] uh feature stopped working. Thankfully,
[19:00] my roommate Holly figured out that it
[19:02] was the idler pulley that had gotten
[19:04] loose and was throwing the drive belt
[19:06] off. Quick tighten that up. Putting the
[19:08] belt back on. Great. The snowblower
[19:10] drives itself again. Right now, it's
[19:12] only running with half choke. It won't
[19:14] run on itself. It'll need the choke. So
[19:16] that means uh that uh one of the jets is
[19:20] probably clogged in the carburetor. So
[19:23] good thing about these they're not
[19:24] Yanmar engines. They're um to come see
[19:28] something or other. And the jet you can
[19:31] take out without taking the carburetor
[19:33] off or even the float bowl out. It's
[19:36] just a screw underneath supposedly. Just
[19:39] unscrew and it comes right out. Of
[19:40] course you're going to have to drain the
[19:41] carburetor, drain this little fuel tank
[19:43] right there.
[19:45] and take that out. Carb cleaner will
[19:49] stick and hopefully it'll run fine after
[19:51] that. And then after that, uh, I guess
[19:55] everything else I'd have to do when the
[19:56] summer's over is just lube everything
[19:58] about this. I have a pimple right here,
[20:02] which is weird for someone over 40.
[20:03] Normally, you don't get these things.
[20:05] Um, I'll tell you right now, when you
[20:08] reach middle age, if you do get a zit,
[20:10] it will be a seasoned veteran.
[20:14] It's not going to go quietly into the
[20:16] night.
[20:20] So, let's take care of this.
[20:27] See if I can figure it out. Oh. All
[20:30] right.
[20:32] I'm also thankful for uh one of my
[20:35] friends Disparity
[20:37] for
[20:39] shaving my head the other day. There it
[20:41] goes.
[20:45] surrendered quite easily.
[20:51] This is prime YouTube right here.
[20:56] I've shown it on the stream before, but
[20:59] this is the jungle bathroom
[21:01] with the original wallpaper to the
[21:03] house. Very, very loud wallpaper.
[21:11] I should really check the uh status of
[21:13] the stream after doing that just to make
[21:17] sure the chat is fine.
[21:21] Should also be having like a laptop or
[21:24] something like that.
[21:28] I'm noticing though that the quality of
[21:32] the stream is not as good as when
[21:36] streaming to your phone
[21:38] as it is when you have the wire going
[21:41] directly from
[21:44] the when you're bypassing your phone
[21:45] completely and just running a wire
[21:48] directly from the the camera into the
[21:51] computer. Gee, I wonder why.
[21:54] Um, oh, we had a super chat right here.
[21:56] Uh, Alex says, "Would you work for
[21:59] someone like Makeshift to create your
[22:01] finance bird flush?" I talked to someone
[22:04] at Megaplex. It's not Makeshift if
[22:07] somebody else who wants to do a finance
[22:10] bird plush. So, yes, I do want to do
[22:11] them. I haven't heard back from them in
[22:13] a while. So, yes, I do want to do one.
[22:16] And that's a great question. And thanks.
[22:17] Thank you for your super chat.
[22:23] I'm just checking the chat. going bit
[22:26] creakily downstairs.
[22:28] Crackled when you move the camera.
[22:31] Um, no. When you're moving around the
[22:32] house. Would you review an ebike? Uh,
[22:36] yeah. I'll do an ebike.
[22:38] Uh, it just crackled right now, too. So,
[22:40] maybe not Wi-Fi or dropping packets.
[22:43] Don't hear a crackle right now. You're
[22:45] near the kitchen now. Mat says, "Is a
[22:48] signal crackle for sure, but I was in
[22:50] the Bunnings parking lot garageed me."
[22:52] Interesting. LOL. East Coast kitchen.
[22:55] Hell yes it is. Signal drop for a
[22:58] second. Cut out for a second.
[23:00] Interesting.
[23:02] Kitchen is brown. Lots of crackles.
[23:05] Crunch back. Crackle and lag when
[23:07] there's a lot of movement like with the
[23:09] cleaver. Maybe lowering the resolution
[23:11] settings. Given you have at least three
[23:13] wireless links going on at the same time
[23:15] is bound to be interference. Well,
[23:16] that's true.
[23:19] Huh. Okay. crackle is happening right
[23:22] now when you're in a kitchen talking
[23:23] about a snowblower. Okay,
[23:26] interesting.
[23:31] Um, also the crackle. Hey, I want full
[23:33] Wi-Fi here. No problem. You're a bit
[23:35] choppy on the audio.
[23:37] Okay.
[23:38] All right.
[23:40] So, we're learning that
[23:45] that while the wife while the mobile
[23:48] nature of
[23:52] the action 5
[23:55] does work, it's not a substitution for
[23:58] just running things directly from the
[24:00] wire and bypassing all this Wi-Fi
[24:03] signals going around right now.
[24:06] Yeah, it's still crackly still. Hello,
[24:08] RCR. Okay.
[24:11] Um, but the audio is getting cracked
[24:13] more often. Sad life, man. Okay. Might
[24:16] reconnect the mic. Well, the mic is like
[24:19] this. I'm talking like barley now.
[24:22] Everybody likes the streamers just take
[24:24] the mic and just eat it like this. Isn't
[24:26] this awesome?
[24:32] Uh, if you had to choose between a fifth
[24:34] gen 4Runner Limited and a GX 460, what
[24:37] would you choose?
[24:39] Well, we talk Oh, fifth gen. No, the the
[24:43] only fourth gen that I think the only
[24:45] Yeah, it's the fourth gen, but the
[24:47] fourth gen also has
[24:51] um the 2Z. No, I would take the Lexus
[24:54] every single time. Yeah,
[24:58] it's definitely a mic connection issue.
[25:00] You know what? That makes sense. That
[25:03] makes sense because this mic is
[25:06] wirelessly going to this camera, but the
[25:10] camera is sending a Wi-Fi signal to
[25:12] here.
[25:14] So, we've got this guy in the middle
[25:17] [ __ ] up the program.
[25:20] So, maybe that's what's going on.
[25:26] So,
[25:28] yeah. All right, chat. I am going to end
[25:32] this stream and restart it with the
[25:36] Action 5 just as a normal camera. We're
[25:40] going to see how that goes. I'll be back
[25:42] in about
