How to Turn an iPod into a Remote Control

May 5, 2010 by admin · Leave a Comment
Filed under: Great Gadgets 

Users of the Apple iPod could not get enough of the music experience. These are some of the features of the Apple iPod that makes it so attractive to music lovers and techies:


1. The Apple iPod have so much space available of up to forty gigabytes that it can store up to about five thousand songs.

2. The Apple iPod also comes with the ergonomically designed Click Wheel wherein you can do fast forward, play, reverse, pause and access the menu with ease.

4. The Apple iPod can be used up to 12 hours non-stop due to its long life battery.

5. The Apple iPod was also designed in such a way that you would have the ability to set up your own play list and it also has a shuffle function to introduce randomness during playing.


iPod Hacks


Through the years, however, the Apple iPod has been modified by techies by using iPod hacks, bent on providing more power to the user in terms of customization and personalization of their Apple iPod.


Strictly speaking, iPod hacks are anything that gives changes to your iPod in terms of appearance, either in terms of software or hardware. Various firmwares that provides iPod hacks, are available on the Internet websites like the iPodWizard that is capable of changing the graphic and text of the Apple iPod.


Some users of the Apple iPod are already content with their iPod simply for playing music, however, some people use iPod hacks because they want more.


Turning an iPod into a Universal Remote


Latest technology capabilities have provided a user power to modify his Apple iPod. These iPod hacks can even transform a normal Apple iPod into a universal remote.


The Apple ipod can be used to control any home electronic equipment in your house. It can control your television, DVD player, Media Center, even a robot. This is the power of iPod hacks.


Simply put, you can use a Pocket PC to possibly record the waves an infrared remote produces. Transfer these waves to your iPod and start changing your TV channels. You now have a new universal remote control.


The following are required before starting this example project of iPod hacks:


1. An Apple iPod

2. A Mac or Personal Computer with a sound recording software installed.

3. A Pocket PC, could be a Pocket PC 2002 or 2003.

4. A total remote software and IR device


The following procedure guides you through changing your iPod into a remote control using iPod hacks:


1. The most important element in this iPod hacks project is the sound or wave to infrared converter.


First, install the total remote software on the MAC or PC. This software is meant to extend the range of the Pocket PC to include consumer IR capabilities.


2. Record the infrared signal by using a sound-editing program that can modify sounds and remove channels. An example of such sound-editing program is SoundForge.


Input the infrared signals from your remotes to the PC by using the software. Input all infrared signals of the home electronic equipment that you want to control.


You can observe if you have recorded the sound effectively if you’ll hear weird beeps or pulses. This is basically what an infrared signal would sound like. Using the SoundForge, you can actually view the pulses and signals on a graphic representation of the wave.


Do not forget to increase the right channel. Then mute it. The process through the IR device would not function properly if you missed this important step.


3. Convert the signals into sound files (actually saved as WAV files).


4. On the Apple iPod, make a new playlist and add the WAV files to the playlist.


5. Now, you can test the new universal remote. Use the Apple iPod to play the sounds through the converter for remote controlling any home electronic equipment.


This basic example of iPod hacks is obviously very easy to understand. Softwares are already available that users can use to modify their Apple iPods.


iPod hacks are still, however, very risky with regards to its effects on your iPod device. Unless handled by a professional technician, the Apple iPod could malfunction if the modification is not right.

Important Items to Consider for Your Remote Dvr System

September 17, 2009 by admin · Leave a Comment
Filed under: Great Gadgets 

When you set up your remote DVR system, there are several important things to consider that will ensure you get the most optimal benefits from your system. These include:

· A static IP address — Utilizing a remote DVR device and corresponding web server will require you to have a static IP address assigned to the device.

 

· Carefully consider compression rate and transmission format — The compression rate and transmission format of the captured video data will have a big impact on the quality of the image displayed. In general, the better the image quality, the more disk space required to store the image, and the longer it takes to transmit it remotely. Compression rates and image resolutions do vary by camera, but you can configure file transfer settings from your DVR device as well.

There is a wide variety of remote DVR system, available on the market. You can find many quality offerings from a number of companies that specialize in these devices. A company called OptiView is just one example. They offer a wide selection of remote DVR units that can support from four all the way up to 48 surveillance cameras. Their DVRs are designed to facilitate remote video access as well as remote camera control abilities. They offer 704X480 display resolution and H.264 real time rate of compression. This functionality ensures you will have access to quality playback images without the skipping that often occurs during remote video playback.

Incorporating a DVR device that offers remote functionality will add a tremendous amount of versatility to your surveillance system. You will gain access to view live and recorded video feeds, search stored video archives, set and change user settings, change camera settings and positions, and manage individual camera recording schedules. If you are interested in learning more about how the OptiView devices mentioned can help you gain this functionality, you can click on the following link to view a live security DVR demo and see how their product works.

Remote Parenting And Remote DVR Surveillance

September 8, 2009 by admin · Leave a Comment
Filed under: Great Gadgets 

Working parents who are constantly on the road are using remote DVR surveillance to keep in touch and to keep watch over their children, which paved the way for remote parenting. This makes sense in a fast paced and dangerous world.

Parenting and You

Lifestyles are fast changing and parenting adjusts to the different situations. Today’s super jobs are also taking the parents away from their children most of the time and for long periods. If not for remote DVR surveillance and mobile phones, there would be no other way to connect with the children frequently and cheaply and in real-time.

If you’re the worrywart and need constant assurance that your children are safe and sound and that your property is secure from unwanted guests, the latest remote DVR surveillance will ease your mind. You can access the recording going on in your home from any part of the world with an Internet connection.

You can monitor the nanny and your children, and check if the kids are eating well, going to school on time, and keeping to bedtime hours. Being able to do all these things even when you are miles away gives you control over the rearing of your children, no matter the distance.

The Advantages of Remote DVR Surveillance

What makes the surveillance system highly recommended for remote parenting? Here are the best reasons for getting a remote system:

* Immediate access to the recordings wherever you are.
* Ability to change the systems settings remotely.
* Quality images.
* Faster playback.
* Efficient storage and fast retrieval of recordings.

With these features, you can access live video streaming on your monitors, fix camera and user settings, search stored files, and playback files – all remotely. The remote features make your life easier while you’re on the road and far from your young or teenaged children.

A high-speed Internet connection makes the remote DVR surveillance very effective, and wouldn’t you want something real fast when you are after your children’s welfare? You can’t be drumming your fingers 99% of the time because the images are taking too long to download; you might as well take the next flight home.

With real-time viewing of the activities going on at home, you can immediately call the attention of the people at home and remind them of the schedules they have to follow, or you can give directions on how you want some things done while viewing how the instructions are carried out.

Family Protection Plus

The next time before you hop on a plane, prepare you family for emergencies, too. Have the numbers of the children’s grandparents, doctors, teacher, and 911 prominently posted near the telephone, or have the numbers stored on the address book of their mobile phones.

Or, the next time you come home, have your family time neatly planned out. Parenting has it dues, and one is keeping quality family time and having lots of them when you’re home. Togetherness compensates for your absences.

Time will come when you’ll be nostalgic over your babies, “tweens”, and teens. If your job requires remote parenting, trust remote DVR surveillance to help you keep in touch and witness all those wonderful moments in your children’s lives. Secretly, remote parenting has its rewards, too. You don’t hear the usual whines and the racket children make. Don’t you think so?

Your remote DVR surveillance and DVR hard drive for the latest DVR surveillance systems can keep you ahead in surveillance technology. Visit Video-Surveillance-Guide.com today for your home and business surveillance needs.
