  Found a nice little JVC GY HD100 at a Radio Rally which will become the base of the next Tapeless Hack. This cam at least is HD (only 720p) But has Firewire, So I need to get the nNovia working with that first. Then if that works, will look to upgrade the nNovia to SSD.

  Dataclass Python dataclasses are a new feature introduced in Python 3.7 that allows users to define classes that are primarily used to store data. They are similar to namedtuples, but with some additional features that make them more powerful and flexible. NamedTuple typing.NamedTuple was introduced in Python 3.6 in the typing module and supercede the collections.namedtuple. They allow users to define a class with named fields. NamedTuples are immutable.They are useful for creating simple, immutable data objects. Pydantic Pydantic is a third-party library that provides data validation and settings management using Python type annotations. It is built on top of Python's type hints, which makes it easy to define the structure of your data. Pydantic is designed to be fast and to consume minimal resources, making it suitable for use in large projects. Comparison Python dataclasses are more powerful than namedtuples because they allow for mutable objects, inheritance, and defau...
