Scott's Intro Video

Welcome to my channel! My name is Scott Swanson. I'm a Father/Husband, Educator, and Maker! I look forward to sharing all my excitement for learnings with you. 0:00 Introduction 0:32 About Me 1:13 Being a Father/Husband 1:41 Being an Educator 2:20 Being a Maker
Hi there! Great video, do I need the subscription to get notifications when the button is pressed?
You didn't show the install of the chime.
How do you figure out which breaker is for the doorbell?
If your breaker is not labeled, you will have to turn off one by one. As you turn off each breaker, take note on which outlet, lights, etc it turns off so you will know next time.
Mine never turned on even though I have live wires connected
Man the SD card needs to be hidden better especially for something the owner never needs easy access to anyway, meanwhile its positioned where someone could remove it reaching their finger on the side while pressing the doorbell, all with one hand... maybe put some strong tape over it.
Why didn’t you just cover how to wire the controller to chime instead of telling us what we already knew…that the app will tell us.
Great video! Thanks so much!
I'm not quite sure on my fuse box which switch goes to my doorbell so here's my question... can you still remove & install door cam without turning off the power? Like don't touch the two wires together kind of thing?
No. Power must be off
Please include how to connect the Wyze Doorbell Chime Controller.
If you are using the wiring from your old doorbell (not another brand of "smart" doorbell), you won't need the chime controller. In the app you can select "Mechanical" and it'll ring the doorbell that the old button rang. In my home we have several Nest Minis and they ring if the "Digital" ringer is selected.
Thanks!
@@KLP99 hi, I have a Wyze Doorbell v.1, linked to Google Home. I don't see this feature in Google Home but would like it. Any tips on setup of this feature?
I’m still confused about installing the door bell chine controller
What is confusing you about the chime?
can i do it w out turning off the breaker or would it fuck me up
update : found the breaker didnt wanna turn into electro
I'm glad you found the breaker. Although electro would have been cool!
What's the answer? I posted the same question yesterday😂
@@joebrown5249i just went and found my breaker for that outlet, i didnt wanna fuck around and shock myself
@@joebrown5249i think batteries would be a hell of a lot easier tho
Two questions can two people use the same app for the doorbell, and do I have to have a subscription for monitoring service
Yes, two people can use the same app for the doorbell. My wife and I both use the app on our separate devices. You can either pay for a subscription which is a monthly fee, or you can buy a MicroSD card for a one-time fee. I prefer buying the microSD card so I am not relying on another subscription service.
Thank you Scott for taking the time out to answer my question. I was told I can use a 128 MB but for better recording time a 256MB. So I will install today and reply how it goes.
Very well done video. The little blinking Android robot was a nice touch. I laughed when it got to the point where you referred me to another video to do the pairing. LOL That part was what I needed most, esp with regard to the extra chime module. Not my first doorbell but I do think this one is exceptional, esp for the price.
I saw so many videos, but none of them were clear. I think your video was spot on showing everything and to the point. Thanks.
I'm glad you found it helpful. I appreciate the feedback.
which memory card is useful for wyze doorbell? 128GB or 256GB?
Either of those would work just fine. The larger card will just allow for playback from further back. Meaning it may allow for playback of a month rather than 2 weeks per say.
Thank you very mich
I don’t have a doorbell. Can I still use this?!
If you have a doorbell button outside your house that receives power, then you can use this. It doesn't have a battery, so it needs a power source. There are doorbells like this that run on batteries if you need one. If you meant you don't have the bell inside your house, then no worries because it will ring your phone when someone is at the door .
thank you for tutorial, very helpful
I'm glad you found it helpful.
Hey Scott, thank you a lot for your straightforward and easy to follow tutorial!!!
Absolutely. I'm glad you found it helpful.
Ordered from Wyze and will be installing today. Thanks for the info! And the little boy is adorable!!! 🥰
I'm glad the info was helpful. My son loved helping with this project!
@@ScottSwanson314 Awesome! I switched from the latest Nest wired doorbell to this Wyze option and I like it so much better! Thanks again!! 😊👍🏽
Nothing about the wyze doorbell chime controller. About to send this thing back.
That's correct. Every smart doorbell also comes with a chime attachment if you want to use your existing chime. I prefer to have it run through my app only.
@ScottSwanson314 They had no directions. I sent it back. Read too many bad things and when I bought it. AZ said it was on sale and it's still $40.
So where the hell is this little black chime box with 3 wires going???? I have an existing doorbell “classic style” in the house. Do I need this black chime thing?
@Jwebbplayz no idea I sent it back.
@@mrmichaeltscott I was confused as hell at first but I got it done. I did everything HOT without kicking power cause kids are home and didn’t wanna listen to the cries with power off. It went well. Chime is super easy to do.
I wanted coffee brewing not beer XD
Haha, sorry about that. I could definitely do a video on how I do cold brew coffee in my fridge XD.
Awesome video quality and presentation! 1 thing to think about is if you need to do a secondary fermentation. It is a another step with an opportunity for contamination but what keeps me from doing it is the oxygenation that occurs. Most beers don't require a secondary fermentation but there are a few that could benefit from it; such as if you are bulk aging the beer for months. As they say "if it works for you" and you like your beer then do you. Loved the video over all
Thanks for the feedback!

Cheers to home brewed beer , we just subscribed after your video found us. We love to brew beer, grow some hops, make different meads and wines and others on our channel, stay thirsty friend and brew good beer .
Thanks for the subscribe. Where are you guys located?

Safari does not let me open discord or midjourney 😢
Sorry to hear that. You can try downloading Google Chrome or a browser similar to that that supports discord. I also read the other day that midjourney is going to move off of discord and to its own designated website. That is probably a few months away still.
Hi Does it work for smart lock ? So that I can unlock my door .
No. This is just a doorbell. The same company, Wyze, does offer a smart lock/ deadbolt as well. www.wyze.com/products/wyze-lock-bolt?app_title=Wyze%20Lock%20Bolt&app_share=true
First!!!!!!
Love it!
Hello, I have a question. If you have a photo of a character in real life, can you upload the photo and have the AI put it in a comic form, or will it generate an illustration from the real phoo??? Thank you 😊
Yes, you can upload images of anything, including real life photos. You can then have midjourney use those to modify them however you want.
@ScottSwanson314 Thank you very much for this information !!!!
Amazing tutorial. Really clear and easy to follow.
Thank you. I appreciate the feedback.
Hello Scott, first of all thank you for these clearly structured video's. Just a question out of curiosity: have you actually sold many books, since publishing? Kind regards, Célien
Thanks Celien. I have sold maybe 30 books in 6 months. I haven't done any promotion of it or advertising. I also have it enrolled in the Kindle select program where I get paid a little bit each month regardless of sales. I haven't done any advertising as this project was more for fun and to create something for my daughter.
Hey Scott, I've seen this subject covered by a number of people but I enjoyed your easy-going, personable presentation style. You kept it simple, honest and definitely stayed away from the usual Side Hustle spiel which never sounds believable. I do have one question if you don't mind. I subscribed to the basic plan with Midjourney but so far I have been unable to locate the private interface between myself and the midjourney ai program I've been limited to wading through everybody else's artwork on one of those newbi servers. How do I access a private one-on-one relationship with Midjourney's ai assistant? Thank you.
Hi hughchi. I'm glad you found the videos helpful! It was a really fun project and my kids love the books. Friends and family have also enjoyed them! Here is a youtube video that I think does a really good job talking though how to get to the private chat with the bot. The link will take you right to the part of the video that walks through how to get the private bot. ua-cam.com/video/90tXPbyRGS8/v-deo.htmlsi=nkFwFDtHCVAWfDeM&t=101 I hope this helps!
Nice!
Thanks 🙂
I have watched a several kid-journey illustrations videos over the last week AFTER discovering Mid journey Sunday and your videos are the most comprehensive. At first I just going to put my images on products and sell them BUT you have shown me how to hack the system to make consistent images to create a children’s book. Thank you. -Renina
Hi Renina, I appreciate the feedback! Happy creating!
I dont see the envelope icon
how do you use the original image to generate others
Hey Scott - congrats on launching your first channel! About to check out your "how to create children's book" videos. Keep up the good work and thanks for sharing!

Great and thanks

OMG! This information is great!
I'm glad you enjoyed it.
Please give us a link of your book on amazon
Here you go! a.co/d/chQ4xaC This was a fun little project for my daughter and me.
Does Midjourney own copyright on the images you create?
From what I have read, the text in the books I have made are copyrighted but the images generated by the journey are not protected by copyright.
If you are skilled enough, and modify the images, the more you modify the better, then you could/should own the new image you made based on Midjourney. At the very least, no one else will have a digital version of your modified image to use in their own book etc.
The tone of voice is beautiful patient, with assurance of knowledge openness. Work your gift from above and your path is drawn.
Keep posting on a regular basis and your channel will grow fast. You have a natural knack for this! Subscribed!
Thank you! I appreciate the feedback, affirmation, and subscription!
Thanks a lot for sharing.
Will this regenerate image based on a model provided... as in uploading a photo of a child (my own)...
Yes you can upload images and generate new images based off of those. You can also use it to blend images.
Can you write copyright in the book to stop someone else claiming it is theirs ?
Yes you can. This is also part of the process in my video I'm working on. I used amazon KDP to actually make the book and copyright it.
@@ScottSwanson314 Sorry but you cannot copyright a book made with Chatgpt and Midjourney. ChatGPT output is the property of OpenAI and Midjurney's output is completly free to use for anybody. I justread their TOS
@@Zsolt67 if you adjust the output you own the rights. Don't use any of it exactly as is without making changes.
thanks a lot
You're welcome!
could you please tell me where can I find the right size for a children’s book?
I can help with what I've learned. There isn't any "right"size for a kids book. Many of them are 6" x 9". Here is a link on Amazon to get an idea of different trim sizes. kdp.amazon.com/en_US/help/topic/GQTT4W3T5AYK7L45
