Guess I just needed to dig deeper on that, I couldn't find one on the web version, and missed the one in the app. Thanks!

Funny enough the Description field for feedback is 1000, and it shows a count/limit.

The 500 character limit on describing an issue in FIR can be incredibly frustrating at times. For some stuff like "broken outlet" or "mouse droppings" it's easy to fit in 500 characters. However when you need to explain to the FM group, or JLL exactly what you need done, in detai...

Everything seems to ok, the only thing with the audio is that when no one is speaking there is a noticeable static noise. When someone speaks into the mic...

I've run into a problem with the Amcrest camera you recommended. It doesn't show support for h264. Did I get the wrong one or is something else wrong?

What I'm interested in is how many "makers" do we have that can make this cable? I wish I could point people to something commercial off-the-shelf, but I'm not sure where to find them. I might try dropping into a local supply store for professional installers to see what they have. Good q...
