well my apologies guys this is a feature I've been meaning to do ever since I did
0:05
my unboxing of the DCS 1130 in fact I've
0:08
had it set up in my living room ever since then but I wanted to show you guys
0:13
the my dlink software which is actually
0:16
pretty cool so uh we can't see a whole lot right now because Rumble is standing
0:22
right in front of the camera Rumble come
0:26
here Rumble baby come here so let's see if he'll move yep
0:31
there he goes he's moving he's coming towards us there he goes he comes down
0:35
so basically what I want you guys to do is uh here I'm going to grab the
0:41
iPhone and uh so hopefully you guys can
0:44
see this kind of like uh like picture in picture here and then the objective
0:50
would be for one of the cats to go up on the cat tree so you can see how uh how
0:56
smooth the motion is it's actually surprisingly good now now it's streaming
1:00
over Wi-Fi right now but at about half of the frame weight of what frame weight
1:05
frame rate of what it's doing right now I can actually stream it over 3G and I
1:10
can monitor my camera from work which is pretty cool uh the my dlink software is
1:14
available not only as an iPhone app so you can see here it's just a little app
1:19
you log in you can access all of your different cameras at home it shows you
1:23
which ones are connected and yeah it's that simple you just click it boom done
1:28
and uh it's actually you know here here let's let's let's do it on 3G right now
1:33
just so that I can show you guys since I have the uh the cats cooperating and
1:37
doing what they're supposed to be doing so Wi-Fi
1:41
off and uh let's go on to my dink light
1:47
here so you can see it's still Snappy
1:50
still responsive boom I'm logged in just like that I am on 3G now and I can see
1:56
the cat grooming himself right there the
1:59
frame rate is quite a bit lower but what it does allow you to do is at least see
2:05
what is going on so uh he's not actually moving much
2:10
right now which isn't helpful rocket be quiet! okay well here hold on let's see
2:15
if we can get him to move I'll just kick
2:18
this thing a bit go chase that please
2:21
here we go here comes rocket rocket jump up there please come
2:27
on baby
2:31
oh great he went down in the bottom oh there he stuck his head out the front so
2:36
you can kind of see there's quite a bit of a delay on 3G but that's about what
2:39
you'd expect on Wi-Fi it performs admirably well and overall I'm quite
2:44
impressed with both the software as well as this little camera so uh thank you
