The Eneco Toon is a thermostat by a Dutch power and gas company. It has a relatively large display for a thermostat and is also a touch screen. It let’s you view realtime information about your electricity and gas usage and can be controlled remotely if you subscibe to Eneco’s services… At least, that’s that Eneco want’s you to do.

I was looking for a thermostat that could be controlled remotely but I don’t need Eneco, Google or anyone else to know what the temperature in my living room is. Knowing I can root the Toon, I looked for one on Marktplaats and picked one up for a fair price. It’s the first version, so it’s a bit slow.

Snom phones ☎️ can do a lot of things. One of those things is displaying a ‘video’ 📹 feed from an intercom or a surveillance camera. With video I mean a lot of pictures 📷📷📷 after eachother. For that to work, the pictures need to be a certain size.

I own a Snom D785 and a Unifi UVC-G3 camera and obviously I wanted both to work together. Unfortunatly the Snom expects a certain size of pictures. The Unifi only spits out 1080p snaphots through the default snapshot url http://$IP/snap.jpeg. Does that mean it can’t be done?
