Summary of step 1 desired feature set:

1. stream live to internet

1a Existing live stream to You Tube is sufficient for now.  We must solve the erratic upload problem now, before we move on.  Retry this with internet box tied down and power lead secured.

………………..

This is exactly what I did! Figured it out before you posted it though.

NETWORK 1 SETUP (with internet connection)
Router 1 – default settings, DHCP ON
LAN 1 – Static IP 192.168.0.150 (I think you can use auto obtain IP), Default Gateway – 192.168.0.1, w/ DNS

NETWORK 2 SETUP
Router 2 – DHCP OFF
LAN 2 – Static IP 192.168.1.100 ; Default Gateway – Blank ; DNS – Blank
— * It will show as Unidentified Network on your adapter settings window.

I have internet on network 1 while I can file share on network 2 (no internet access) for work. 2 different networks, 1 pc

 

 

Why do we have to occasionally hard reset the internet box?

Heavy power switch. Where did the “power Conditioner” go?

Laptop boot on power, sleep on power down

2 allow real-time camera switching

2a –  Implement camera feed switch.

2b – laptop to control switching interface

2c – Router from home to mount in 19 in. Rackd.  –    2.d current inputs : 1 Sony camera remotely steered, 1 Sony camera fixed at sound booth.

3 use one remote camera and one fixed camera for now.

3a.  –  one remotely controlled camera

3b- Pan/tilt mechanism / controller done, needs tuning.

34c- zoom, focus etcetera.

3d-Evaluate lanc  dongle.  Buy. Camera XA35.

3e  Camera drive.  Lanc drive. add joystick or wheel to LANC zoom

4 Use mixed audio stream from existing sound board.

4A  Why is the fan in the switch so loud?

4b. Key to switch / software /

4c – do we have audio coming in from Sound Booth Channel 8?

   4d Get app to work on nexus tablet.

4e. Sound Board private network
SSID X-32
PW @FBCJusti
UP 192.168.0.102

5 Send use able stream of camera feed for ProPresenter to display on projectors.  Use ProPresenter as a input “Camera” source to switch.

 

Is ther a way to with the exsisting video on the Lightening outputs

Uthe Sparkfun motor control board wires up:

Dir A- 12
Speed A – 3

DirB – 13

SpeedB – 11

Here is a wii Nii nunchuck based project

Here ist the demo software for the board:

  This code includes the ddition of fade in and out PWM. Also a stop feature. And the addition of individual functions for motor control 
  
  This was a revision of the example sketch that originated from Pete Dokter's code for Arduino that shows very basically how to control an Ardumoto 
  motor driver shield with a 5V Arduino controller board. http://www.sparkfun.com/datasheets/DevTools/Arduino/Ardumoto_test_3.pde
  
  This also includes parts of the Fading Example,  Created 1 Nov 2008 By David A. Mellis, modified 30 Aug 2011 By Tom Igoe http://arduino.cc/en/Tutorial/Fading

/* Let's take a moment to talk about these functions. The forw and back functions are simply designating the direction the motors will turn once they are fed a PWM signal.
If you only call the forw, or back functions, you will not see the motors turn. On a similar note the fade in and out functions will only change PWM, so you need to consider
the direction you were last set to. In the code above, you might have noticed that I called forw and fade in the same grouping. You will want to call a new direction, and then
declare your pwm fade. There is also a stop function.
