HVAC Design Engineer Here. Linus, the duct socks are great, we use them a lot for indoor pools and the like. But my suggestion, if you see this... You can spec them with an internal skeleton that keeps them "rigid" when there's no airflow. This prevents a lot of wear and tear on the product and helps for an even and smooth startup when the HVAC turns on/off. Relatively inexpensive.

@@ArmethisLutheric From my experience in the University sector of these types of builds, it's usually an engineer forgetting to check what layers are active in CAD when making unrelated changes.

A good light table to overlay the two drawings is a very good way to see the differences and validate things. Or when digital, just make the old one transparent over the new revision, and cross check that way.
As a guy in AV integration, all the technical issues you're encountering are exactly the reason integrators exist. The number of times I've seen companies "buy the cheap option, it'll be fine" and it never is. Every dollar you save on the equipment you pay for in labor, and when you don't have integration experience that time can multiply exponentially.
as someone who once had to set up a pair of 24" TV's to run a slideshow to advertise menu items, I agree. everything went sideways for no good reason and even after they were running i repeatedly threatened to rip them from the wall and burn them if i had to troubleshoot them or even operate them in any fashion. literally had them fully operational with a PC i could remote into to update the slideshow from my home pc and before i could bring it all from home to install it that got overruled. Instead one is running a slideshow off a USB stick, the other has a usb /HDMI slideshow box because the actual usb ports died, and somehow i still got blamed for them never working right. ever tried to rewind a randomized slideshow because someone wants to know what that thing was they just saw? faaaaaaaaaawk.
I work in the digital signage software business and the words "sync group" sent a chill down my spine, because that stuff is a real pain to implement. Now, as for the audio, while I am not at all familiar with Xibo, I can think of a few good reasons why the audio wouldn't be synced, and it's probably just because trying to get a video to play at *exactly* the same time is a very hard problem (especially if the video is streamed rather than preloaded, due to buffering and such) and in most digital signage situations, it's not terribly necessary to get it *that* precise as the audio is usually turned off. There's also the method the players use to know what content to play and when and tons of other factors. Let's just say that the closer you want the content to sync, the exponentially harder it gets to implement.
You are seriously a hero dude. Most people would squirrel that money away or blow it on luxury crap. You used it to give back to your community. It's an inspiration to be successful and do the same someday.
This channel opened my eyes in terms of what is possible, how much it costs and more importantly how to do it right. Including the fact that selfie youtuber purchased giant warehouse and is turning it into badminton hall and LAN party. And where you should save money and where absolutely not. Like in the end: "Lets put few Noctua fans here and it will be fine", they didnt say any generic PC fans or normal ventilation fans. This is actually best non-paid ad for Noctua. I would mark LTT as typical American dream, starting from scratch to building stuff worthy of millions USD.
In this smartphone era it actually makes sense too, so people can share short form content that way. Not sure how big badminton players are on the short form content, but in this day and age it does make sense. But it's also good to have the normal landscape view to watch actual full length recordings.

10:08 For the court cameras look at the 'Blackmagic Micro Studio Camera 4k G2', they're 4k60, active MFT lens mount, 12G-SDI I/O, HDMI Out, USB-C I/O (can be used with ethernet adapter for REST API), mic in, backup battery. All at a $995. They obviously want you to use the ATEM controllers, but you can also use the REST API to control it through a web interface or whatever.
That camera only supports SDI and HDMI video out. I think they want video over IP, and/or maybe a camera that can directly stream to RUclips? Alot of cameras that support NDI also support streaming directly to a service with rtmp.

The transition from the title to the video was smooth. Also, him lying down combined with the words in the thumbnail make everyone think that he’s a failure.
Ohhhh. That makes more sense. I use the 'DeArrow - Better Titles and Thumbnails' extension, so the title for me is "Updates to Smash Champs/LAN Gaming Center" and I was like "why did he start off mid-sentence?"
As an AV integrator, this is equally cathardic and anxiety inducing. Really interesting to see how some very smart people with no experience go about tackling a complex problem.

@@williamlockwood9729 I bought one to try the other day. I paid more in bottle deposit than for the actual drink. It's a 2 NOK (0.2 USD) deposit on half a liter bottles. I guess it would have been worth it if I had nothing else to drink, but I'm glad I just got one.
The work on the Badminton SL land gaming center seems to be going great. Can't wait to see the finished setup with the security cameras and networking fixed.
So many things to unpack with this video that I don't even know where to start. Hammond dealing with the 'criticism' of their rack design so quickly is simply wonderful to see. I personally think that a sturdy 42U that could have side expansions for vertical mounts would be better, but if they are staying with their design, then it's cool that they are taking feedback and modifying the design. Hearing about the Surrey GM seeming to be really onboard with getting things done to make things happen, is heart-warming. Too often officials try to hide behind red-tape bureaucracy as if to justify their jobs. Obviously things will have to be up to spec and regulations etc, but it seems like the City is trying to help solve issues, rather than hinder things. The pro-shop looks so good already, though missing some good water bottles... Viewing gallery is somewhat of a fail. Could easily add a few monitors there showing each court. From a security, and network security perspective, I'd have some concerns regarding the access control and physical access to ethernet ports, but I'm sure they know what to do. Main takeaway from the video, is simply how much passion Linus has for this project.
We love feedback so we love criticism. A fix is in the works and we'll do a weight load test before launching. Honestly, UL tested that cabinet to 12,000 lbs so we figured the rails were sufficient. But we appreciate the feedback from the LTT crew.
On the signage side of things I'd really recommend for you guys to switch to proper panels that are going to live for more time and not have overheating problems in the future. If you'd like to stay on regular TVs it's probably a good idea to connect them to mini PCs (more stable and all that, also, you can connect multiple panels to one pc). You could combine both of those solutions with a program called smartplayer. It's pretty good for its money and I've worked on deploying a lot of systems with it in my home country.
If you want the TVs to be in perfect sync you will need to setup a multicast group so all of the TVs receive the video steam at exactly the same time. But seeing that its streaming from youtube, which is unicast, you would have to come up with a way to convert the unicast stream to multicast. One way to do it is to use OBS and setup a multicast group with FFMPEG, then just stream youtube from OBS out to your multicast group. This all depends if the TVs support multicast to begin with.
Or just plug some NDI decoders on the back (eg: BirdDog Flex Out), but that's extra cost of course. Hanging out for the day panels come with native NDI on them with the licence already included in the panel cost - will make life so much easier for everyone.
I love how every plan is "We originally planned to get these high-end things, but these cheaper ones are cheaper and we'll make back the difference in the content we get out of how bad they are"
Nah Linus is just learning a lot of lessons on why construction is hard. It seems he is trying different solutions than what would be considering top-of-the-line and handling the consequences of that.
I love that they were trying to cover all the little details they could think of. I'm sure someone will find some details to complain about, but at least they're TRYING to cover the details, which is more than most people can say when they make stuff. 👍
The old 80:20 rule. The last 20% takes 180% of the effort. Great to see it all coming together. Looks like it’s going to be awesome especially with the local council now on your side.
This is honestly the coolest thing ever! The fact you put so much care and thought into benches just shows what an awesome place this might be. Also shoutout to Dan he is the MVP.
one thing that might be useful and we used it at my last job for digital signage is Vivi, the hardware works great, just go through support for any issues instead of your direct contact even if they tell you "if you have any tech issues i will help fix them"
By Law in Canada TV's must be sold set to their lowest Electric Consumption Rate. Look in the Options for something like "Floor Display Mode" or whatever. Select that. That way your TV will be put into Full Performance, and of course highest energy consumption.
@@Zyo117 That had fun accepting the contract to "install" them though i bet. Despite the fact they have to be uninstalled immediately afterwards, and they knew that.
I totally get why it is frustrating, but in the installer side you have to understand that customers will try to change to scope of work mid-project ALL THE TIME. I used to do freelance IT work and the scope creep and payment dodging made me give it up. Whoever represents the installers should have done a better job documenting expectations.

When the pros won't do part of an install. Instead tell you need to do it. That probably means they noticed a problem or there could be a problem in the future and they don't want to be liable for damage, repair, and replacement.
@@Decktrio Did you see the look on Linus' face when he heard they wouldn't 'plug in a cable'? Plugging in a cable takes only takes 2 seconds and is one less thing your client has to worry about, otherwise the contractors should've brought it up prior. That's like saying it wasn't in their contract to close the doors after they installed them. This attitude is how you don't get reoccurring customers or good reviews.
@@LobsterNoodles what a load of bollocks. I can install strikes into doorframes all day, I can run wires all day but without proper certification (which my company does not have) we are not allowed by law to hook up those security devices. We install cable for a large hospital network and they have a separate contractor that does the device hookup and programming. We want to add that into contracts, but then every tech needs that certification and even if it is a simple badge strike there is programming for all possible functions of the given device that needs to be done in case it is used for something else later on by a different owner/tenant.
More than likely it's because they want fast money - in and out jobs. They don't want the possibility of there being a problem and having to deal with any post job callbacks/hassles.
If the subcontractors misunderstood the plans you should hold them to that since you are paying them to go by the plans assuming contracts were written correctly
I love how tradesmen are always complaining and sh!tting on engineers being "stupid know-it-alls who don't know anything" and then ignore the plans/drawings/spec and always underdeliver screwing the client in the end.
As someone who has built out a digital signage system before, I feel you. When Linus asked how it was going and it was just a frustrated grunt, I knew it had to be Xibo. Been there done that. It's frustrating.
As someone who works as a racket stringer: Those stringing machines are quite cool. Different clamps for tennis rackets ideally though. I think the same stringing machine design appears under Dunlop branding, maybe a few others like Gamma, Prince, Head also. Good for finding parts.
Looking at the camera system and how Smash Champs is going, it makes me very happy to see some of the ideas get materialized, that were before spoken during WAN show. Looks sick!
Note to self, If I ever have anything built in Canada make sure to hold the construction crews hand the whole time so they don't mess things up like every single build/ remodel Linus has to date.
Anywhere, all the time. I moved into a house that was a frame-up rebuild. The main beam of the roof was broken in half and sagging when purchased; supposed to be braced, leveled, and spliced. Wasn't and isn't, passed inspection. The electrical wiring overloads the main breaker in winter, but not the individual circuit breakers for each room. The wood stove in case the electricity goes out is absent, as is the chimney and fire brick pad for it -- though they're in the plans and were paid-for -- needed because winter storms often knock out power for as much as a week at a time. The drains in every sink are something called 'Plumb Pak' and *fall off* every few months. The bathtub drain was installed too high, so the bathtub is raised on elevated footings that make it dangerously high to climb in and out. The front door was removed and omitted because when the carpenters tried to replace the door frame, they didn't brace the structure ahead of time and the entire house started collapsing. There's some insulation in the attic, obvious when snow is melting, but not nearly the amount specified, and there's no access to the attic nor to the cellar. There's supposed to be a wind backup for electricity, back-feeding to the grid when unnecessary -- completely absent, but apparently never ordered or charged. (48v Recreational Vehicle system x4, with conversion to household rather than 12v, going to battery storage banks) And every window painted shut.
I know these feelings well. A number of our largest clients have been moving moved into new offices most of which are all new or having significant renovations being done. The main contractors had people for the cabling already but they seem completely unable to follow any kind of plan properly or change the design without consulting IT (US) and making major mistakes or problems. I've learnt to be strong and not just work around it and force them to go back and do things properly. New buildout is the only time you can get this stuff perfect without having to rip things apart later so its better to get it right from the start

For the digital signage, I actually run Windows computers behind my screens in kiosk mode. Then I set up a local web server and build a website for them and just have the kiosk refresh every 24 hours. That way if you need to update stuff you can do it fairly simply.

I'm so excited. Right now people in Surrey have to drive half an hour each way (assuming no traffic) to access a facility like this. Gonna be a game changer! - LS
Yeah, it's hard to find people who push hard to create something and improve the community. People like Linus are amazing.
This is something the city should be doing/funding, but no, there is no money because they have to bail out criminal businesses.

“It’s not in their contract to plug them in” is the most ‘Malicious Compliance’ thing I’ve seen on this channel.
@@feha92 That's why you get a good architect/engineer/technical officer. The bids go exactly for your plans, sounds like there was other issues but if the plans have 1 ethernet port for 3 points of sale they will definitely charge a VO for the works even if it's run ahead of time.
You can't expect free extras for contract work, else it's a race to the bottom which is a critical issue in many industries like health care, teaching, etc.
Deal with software/hardware contractors daily. I am not suprised in any way. If it's not in the contract they will not do it.
@@Shemegory you can do contract for work that would have covered this without it being explicitly stated in the contract, a Performance Work Statement contract vs a Statement of Work contract for example. A PWS contract would state that they install 7 security doors, part of performing that work is that those security doors are functional.

Conduits, duplex, lan drops, etc just magically disappear between revs even the « locked in » versions that get sent to the builder.
@@ArmethisLutheric From my experience in the University sector of these types of builds, it's usually an engineer forgetting to check what layers are active in CAD when making unrelated changes.
...why arent contingencies written into contracts to prevent changes from being made after a certain point in planning & building?

@@NORFIE123456 that's the perverse thing. They are.

A good light table to overlay the two drawings is a very good way to see the differences and validate things. Or when digital, just make the old one transparent over the new revision, and cross check that way.
As a guy in AV integration, all the technical issues you're encountering are exactly the reason integrators exist. The number of times I've seen companies "buy the cheap option, it'll be fine" and it never is. Every dollar you save on the equipment you pay for in labor, and when you don't have integration experience that time can multiply exponentially.
as someone who once had to set up a pair of 24" TV's to run a slideshow to advertise menu items, I agree. everything went sideways for no good reason and even after they were running i repeatedly threatened to rip them from the wall and burn them if i had to troubleshoot them or even operate them in any fashion.
literally had them fully operational with a PC i could remote into to update the slideshow from my home pc and before i could bring it all from home to install it that got overruled. Instead one is running a slideshow off a USB stick, the other has a usb /HDMI slideshow box because the actual usb ports died, and somehow i still got blamed for them never working right.
ever tried to rewind a randomized slideshow because someone wants to know what that thing was they just saw? faaaaaaaaaawk.
I work in the digital signage software business and the words "sync group" sent a chill down my spine, because that stuff is a real pain to implement.
Now, as for the audio, while I am not at all familiar with Xibo, I can think of a few good reasons why the audio wouldn't be synced, and it's probably just because trying to get a video to play at *exactly* the same time is a very hard problem (especially if the video is streamed rather than preloaded, due to buffering and such) and in most digital signage situations, it's not terribly necessary to get it *that* precise as the audio is usually turned off.
There's also the method the players use to know what content to play and when and tons of other factors. Let's just say that the closer you want the content to sync, the exponentially harder it gets to implement.

10:08 For the court cameras look at the 'Blackmagic Micro Studio Camera 4k G2', they're 4k60, active MFT lens mount, 12G-SDI I/O, HDMI Out, USB-C I/O (can be used with ethernet adapter for REST API), mic in, backup battery. All at a $995. They obviously want you to use the ATEM controllers, but you can also use the REST API to control it through a web interface or whatever.
Bump
But can they do video live streaming via Ethernet?
That camera only supports SDI and HDMI video out.
I think they want video over IP, and/or maybe a camera that can directly stream to RUclips?
Alot of cameras that support NDI also support streaming directly to a service with rtmp.
Thats useless if you want to encode on camera. They don't even do NDI hx, then it migth have been an option MAYBE.
No streaming functionality on those.

Those suspended light fixtures are gonna get so much random sh*t stuck up there.
what are you talking about, it's up to "standard"... yeah no they are going to have to be cleaned so many times that they'll end up switching to lights that are much further up to that "super high ceiling"
They seem to not have any grating in the middle so things'll just slide off the angled fixtures and drop down. I think.
It'd be different if they were playing ball sports with much bigger balls, but badminton shuttles shouldn't be a problem.
They seem to be designed with that in mind. They're open in the middle, quite narrow, and sloped to let things slide off.
@@svampebob007 why do people speak on things they know nothing about? Those lights are specifically designed for tennis/badminton/pickleball and used in all kinds of clubs.

Making his hobby a business expense.
So many things to unpack with this video that I don't even know where to start.
Hammond dealing with the 'criticism' of their rack design so quickly is simply wonderful to see. I personally think that a sturdy 42U that could have side expansions for vertical mounts would be better, but if they are staying with their design, then it's cool that they are taking feedback and modifying the design.
Hearing about the Surrey GM seeming to be really onboard with getting things done to make things happen, is heart-warming. Too often officials try to hide behind red-tape bureaucracy as if to justify their jobs. Obviously things will have to be up to spec and regulations etc, but it seems like the City is trying to help solve issues, rather than hinder things.
The pro-shop looks so good already, though missing some good water bottles...
Viewing gallery is somewhat of a fail. Could easily add a few monitors there showing each court.
From a security, and network security perspective, I'd have some concerns regarding the access control and physical access to ethernet ports, but I'm sure they know what to do.
Main takeaway from the video, is simply how much passion Linus has for this project.
We love feedback so we love criticism. A fix is in the works and we'll do a weight load test before launching. Honestly, UL tested that cabinet to 12,000 lbs so we figured the rails were sufficient. But we appreciate the feedback from the LTT crew.
On the signage side of things I'd really recommend for you guys to switch to proper panels that are going to live for more time and not have overheating problems in the future. If you'd like to stay on regular TVs it's probably a good idea to connect them to mini PCs (more stable and all that, also, you can connect multiple panels to one pc). You could combine both of those solutions with a program called smartplayer. It's pretty good for its money and I've worked on deploying a lot of systems with it in my home country.
yeah and if a TV dies, only plug and play.
I have never wanted to live in Canada more than I have since seeing your antics and amazing projects!
Yay for camera men!!!!! Good to see you all!!
If you want the TVs to be in perfect sync you will need to setup a multicast group so all of the TVs receive the video steam at exactly the same time. But seeing that its streaming from youtube, which is unicast, you would have to come up with a way to convert the unicast stream to multicast. One way to do it is to use OBS and setup a multicast group with FFMPEG, then just stream youtube from OBS out to your multicast group. This all depends if the TVs support multicast to begin with.
Or just plug some NDI decoders on the back (eg: BirdDog Flex Out), but that's extra cost of course. Hanging out for the day panels come with native NDI on them with the licence already included in the panel cost - will make life so much easier for everyone.
I just got bait-and-switched

I love how every plan is "We originally planned to get these high-end things, but these cheaper ones are cheaper and we'll make back the difference in the content we get out of how bad they are"
Basicly a business model in its own.
If it were smooth sailing and every detail would be taken care of by contractors.. I would not watch the content.
Nah Linus is just learning a lot of lessons on why construction is hard. It seems he is trying different solutions than what would be considering top-of-the-line and handling the consequences of that.
6:41 “I take back nothing” had me laughing at work. 😂

one thing that might be useful and we used it at my last job for digital signage is Vivi, the hardware works great, just go through support for any issues instead of your direct contact even if they tell you "if you have any tech issues i will help fix them"
By Law in Canada TV's must be sold set to their lowest Electric Consumption Rate.
Look in the Options for something like "Floor Display Mode" or whatever. Select that.
That way your TV will be put into Full Performance, and of course highest energy consumption.

@@nofunberg True - what else could install mean with strike plates with electrical connections after all? Ok, to be fair, i've no idea what the contract actually stated, so maybe it's entirely plausible that they would not do such an install.

Dan is a gem and deserves a raise.
When the pros won't do part of an install. Instead tell you need to do it. That probably means they noticed a problem or there could be a problem in the future and they don't want to be liable for damage, repair, and replacement.
Or they just want to get paid for their work. He said it wasn't in their contract... that's what change orders are for.
@@Decktrio Did you see the look on Linus' face when he heard they wouldn't 'plug in a cable'? Plugging in a cable takes only takes 2 seconds and is one less thing your client has to worry about, otherwise the contractors should've brought it up prior. That's like saying it wasn't in their contract to close the doors after they installed them. This attitude is how you don't get reoccurring customers or good reviews.
@@LobsterNoodles what a load of bollocks. I can install strikes into doorframes all day, I can run wires all day but without proper certification (which my company does not have) we are not allowed by law to hook up those security devices. We install cable for a large hospital network and they have a separate contractor that does the device hookup and programming. We want to add that into contracts, but then every tech needs that certification and even if it is a simple badge strike there is programming for all possible functions of the given device that needs to be done in case it is used for something else later on by a different owner/tenant.
More than likely it's because they want fast money - in and out jobs. They don't want the possibility of there being a problem and having to deal with any post job callbacks/hassles.
@@Spainsoccer949 Fair enough, thanks for the clarification
If the subcontractors misunderstood the plans you should hold them to that since you are paying them to go by the plans assuming contracts were written correctly

As someone who has built out a digital signage system before, I feel you. When Linus asked how it was going and it was just a frustrated grunt, I knew it had to be Xibo. Been there done that. It's frustrating.
Was it a failure? No. It's a content gold mine.
More content like this with Jake & Dan. They know what there doing💪🏻
As someone who works as a racket stringer: Those stringing machines are quite cool. Different clamps for tennis rackets ideally though.
I think the same stringing machine design appears under Dunlop branding, maybe a few others like Gamma, Prince, Head also. Good for finding parts.

Would most likely be like this on a big project anywhere and you also got to figure a certain amount of it is hyped up for entertainment purposes.
More like put it on the damn drawing and get it to the right person. Only telling them isn't gonna help them
Basically this can be said for any contractor in any country…
Lol, when you're doing a project on this scale there's always bound to be some oversight, especially when it's not on the drawing! Lmao
Anywhere, all the time. I moved into a house that was a frame-up rebuild. The main beam of the roof was broken in half and sagging when purchased; supposed to be braced, leveled, and spliced. Wasn't and isn't, passed inspection. The electrical wiring overloads the main breaker in winter, but not the individual circuit breakers for each room. The wood stove in case the electricity goes out is absent, as is the chimney and fire brick pad for it -- though they're in the plans and were paid-for -- needed because winter storms often knock out power for as much as a week at a time. The drains in every sink are something called 'Plumb Pak' and *fall off* every few months. The bathtub drain was installed too high, so the bathtub is raised on elevated footings that make it dangerously high to climb in and out. The front door was removed and omitted because when the carpenters tried to replace the door frame, they didn't brace the structure ahead of time and the entire house started collapsing. There's some insulation in the attic, obvious when snow is melting, but not nearly the amount specified, and there's no access to the attic nor to the cellar. There's supposed to be a wind backup for electricity, back-feeding to the grid when unnecessary -- completely absent, but apparently never ordered or charged. (48v Recreational Vehicle system x4, with conversion to household rather than 12v, going to battery storage banks) And every window painted shut.
LTT is his job, this is his dream.

With that thumbnail, I assumed *Linus was trapped in the badminton backrooms.* 😂
I know these feelings well. A number of our largest clients have been moving moved into new offices most of which are all new or having significant renovations being done. The main contractors had people for the cabling already but they seem completely unable to follow any kind of plan properly or change the design without consulting IT (US) and making major mistakes or problems. I've learnt to be strong and not just work around it and force them to go back and do things properly. New buildout is the only time you can get this stuff perfect without having to rip things apart later so its better to get it right from the start
