Comment on Why We’re Pulling Our Recommendation of Wyze Security Cameras

  If someone uses acronyms without explaining them, they’re “flexing” and can be ignored.

  But this person made it extra confusing by typo-ing “your NVR” as “you NVR,” which makes “NVR” seem like a verb.

  NVR = Network Video Recorder. A thing that records videos locally from your cameras.

    Nah, that’s just a cope statement. I knew what all those acronyms meant already, as would anyone who deals with security cameras with any regularity should. Also, using acronyms properly is a concise method of communicating useful information.

    If you were actually interested in the topic instead of just trying to imagine that people are “flexing” their knowledge to cope with lack of your own, you could simply use a search engine to learn what those acronyms meant in a few seconds of time.

  RSTP is the streaming cam protocol. It shows up as a url with rstp:// instead of https://. You can type that url into streaming video apps like VLC (video lan client) and watch your videos with no configuration. There is no security on the feed so you have to secure your network instead.
