  • Thats awful… but im not surprised. I witnessed similar when i used to contribute.

    In any case i hate that theyre like this because there is a need for truly open camera firmware but their attitude makes me not even want to mention or recommend them. Especially not as a fully or truly FOSS solution

    Thingino devs are bros and do it purely for the foss privacy philosophy. Contributions are encouraged and praised and the support is soo friendly and encouraging


  • I used to use openipc (that was the “alternative” i was referring to") but its not truly FOSS. Their default streamer is hidden behind closed doors and theyve also taken some contributions and added it to majestic never to be seen in the open again. You cant be sure what theyre doing there.

    That said, it is a great alternative if you dont have ingenic based cameras. And they apparently now offer minimal other open source options for streamers…

    Some of the key devs left and created thingino because of the whole foss thing. Imo theyre a much friendlier bunch too but thats purely an opinion

    I find if I have NTFS problems, throw it back on windows, do a disk repair then come back to Linux.

    Also remember to fully shut down (not sleep or hibernate) windows before removing the disk so windows doesn’t lock up anything

    Edit: the error actually tells you the latter of what I mentioned… So back to windows you go for a shutdown before removal
