>>22866227
Nice, they finally fixed the camera. Stopped tuning in when things were way too blurry.

>>22866265
That was only for a brief time, maybe 2 weeks I think.
The audio on that channel is sometimes really good too, shame my VLC broke and didn't capture any of it for an entire 4 hours, or I'd have posted those as a streamable.

>>22866227
Whoever targeted this camera has fantastic taste.

In two months it will be 3 years since the Aizu-Wakamtsu camera shut down.

>>22869984
fucking hell, but im sincerely glad you guys are maintaining these threads in memory of it ;_;

Check it out, snowfall today across many cams

>>22873899
Damn this is peaceful.

>>22874684
I went and recorded a tiny bit of various cameras while the snow was still able to settle instead of melt. The bottom two are rather loud when the trains pass.

wow just wow

I am the guy that is being send to Japan with scholarship. Got my last confirmation today. Well, I guess forget about showing up on a camera in Tokyo. I am being send to Osaka. So please find me a camera from there. Toyonaka or close preferably.

>>22879258
go to the Osaka Tower basement floor, there's usually a livecam running in the shops there.
Very congested and no stream backskip so you'd have to give a heads up for people who could record it.

Beautiful morning sky, unfortunately always someone that has to keep moving the camera around.

And, rainy morning in Yunokami

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oIoL0IFrFOI

>>22881344
Thanks, this kinda snuck up on me bcause that channel was always just a very blurry view of an airport before.

>>22881375
There are actually like 4 cameras on that channel.

>>22881395
Yeah I guess I didn't look well enough, the airport view always shows up in the top 10 for "カメラ" and the last time I looked at the channel itself was a while ago.

>>22881198
which camera is this?

Looks like Obihiro got hit again.

>>22882098
insecam.org/en/view/846305/

>>22884545
thank you

>>22881343
late to the party, when did the snow disappear from Yunokami, how much snow / snow days were there this winter?

>>22885695
It still hurts seeing an anime girl next to a penguin..

>>22882821
Quite a bit actually. I'll post the weather screenshot next.

I am recording a bit of the Obihiro cam but its bitrate is tragic, very hard to see snowflakes.

So though it is going to be a rough ride, there is a way for 12k yen to get from Osaka to Yunokami-Onsen. First 9 hours on a night bus Osaka-Kyoto-Niigita, then a 2 hour long bus ride to Aizu-Wakamatsu and then the train from Aizu-Wakamatsu station to Yunokami-Onsen for around 30-40 minutes. I guess I will have to do this some day. Possible not even this year, but we will see. Will probably plan it with extra exploring of the locations along the way there and culminating with a video recording of the train ride and the two stations as a whole and whatever else.
I am not sure if Google has all the correct information on the buses, so I will have to research further.
That is if the wu flu doesn't fuck me or us over.

>>22885903
That sounds like a dream journey, rough or not. I hope you can make it, anon.

>>22886314
~11 hours on buses a dream journey? But I guess you mean getting to these places. Being based in Tokyo would have made it a bit easier, though probably not much cheaper, but cannot be helped.
I will definitely try to take photos/videos of cool train places around Osaka, Koyoto and Kobe. I will be living nearby a monorail that I will be riding into the Osaka. One of its close stops is fused with the coolest shopping street (closed style) that I might have ever seen.

>>22886353

The Japanese highway buses are comfy as fuck anon. Some of them actually use "Limousine" in the name.

I'm back, it's been a week. Currently in high rotation these cams.

I just love watching the effect jet engines have on fresh powder.

Looks like they finally got a flight in.

>>22889481
Took me a second watch to notice it's sucking in snow through the front of the turbine as well

Not quite relevant content but here's a nice wide shot of New Year's morning at Ikushima-Tarushima.
It's about all I can look at since the stream was/is so muddy.

>>22894379
I really miss that old camera, even more i miss when the UCV streams had sound.

anyone know of a cam in Jimbocho?

>>22885903
are things more expensive this year because of the olympics crap?

>>22888874
>gonna wander over with only carry on
only carry on? how long you staying?

>>22894379
nice where you find this?
>>22888974
what cam is this?

So the YouTube algorithm offered up a slightly different take on comfy Japanese viewing today...

https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCshavgMGy2X0b9-9vuNEb9A

>>22898166
these channels that have auto-translated titles and channel name really confuse me when I'm browsing.
>>22898111
that's one of the BANTV cams
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCjvpBcOLMBqktt0KJxjtJCg

also this is more of an /n/ video but the channel has a live cam
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Q42M7eZtSQ

Tokyo got a 5.3 (4) around 2AM but none of my cams picked it up. Maybe that's too gentle of a motion.

This camera is shakier than my will to live.

>>22901866
Thank you!

>>22902700
Considering I will soon be living very close to a Japanese airport, should I sometimes, probably rarely, just go and record for like half a hour or something? Would there be interest in such a thing?

>>22905725
Lots of people do it, sure. Do the right thing and have a stabilizer though.

>>22905755
I am asking if somebody here will have an interest in it, not if people do it.
That said I certainly am not looking to spend 10k yen on a fucking stabilizer.

>>22905796
I don't mean equipment, I mean rest it on an object instead of a shaky arm.
I can't speak in favor of or against it, I'm not into airline stuff.

>>22905725
Matey here does exactly that, gets a fair number of views:

https://www.youtube.com/user/tsurikichitetsu/

>>22905796
And yeah, equipment isn't that cheap if you want top quality stuff. I actually have a very similar loadout as this >>22905950 guy, cost me around ¥6-700k. You can do it much cheaper if you want tho, just don't expect the same results.

>>22905950
Damn. But at least he switches the airports. I can probably to attach a camera to my future bicycle and get myself in trouble by recording myself breaking some traffic law.

night train

Also unrelated, some very scary footage of the Tohuku earthquake that popped up on my feed.
>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mk68bZ701s0

>>22911541
Things falling off the walls and ceilings, lamps that look like they are about to hit people on the head swinging, but no one is getting under the tables.
Weird.

I wonder how much people was saved by the tsunami warning system and people just being aware of the risk, even if the warning was only a few minutes in some cases and some of the evacuation areas were actually washed away too.
Compared to the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami for example where most of the heavily hit areas received no warning at all and suffered much higher casualties.

>>22911967
I'm down the rabbit hole watching NHK footage of the aftermath now. couldn't do it last night because I wanted to actually sleep instead of think about how awful it was.

Thanks for always posting such good content, anon. I'm mostly just a lurker, and I rarely have much to contribute, so I appreciate the work you do.

There was heavy snowfall on the western coast and Hokkaido last night, but I have no cams from the area at all. The Obihiro airport is too far east.

>>22931435
flashing sign?

>>22931571
He means the Yunokami camera. The sign on the station is flickering like crazy.

I love the morning colors.

This is awesome. I'm making video later

I'm happy for the snow

oops, I should have played it more. It's a warning about back strain from shoveling for too long/improperly, but has some good shots of how much fell at once.

A minute of the blinking light.

>>22942495
why does the light blink like that?

Is this a user from here? aidaleneu@gmail.com

He'll send you all the tracks that use to play on the Kabukicho cam, apparently the building has been demolished now. I still listen to the music to calm myself after work.

>>22924809
Well I lived there, only issue is I was thinking up North this time since Tohoku and Sapporo ias basically the only places I haven't gone already, but early October will still be cold them, not good for luggage!

>>22948791
whats the worse that can happen?

This thread seems to be existing for the last 2+ years >>>/n/1435602 I wonder if they are made by someone unhappy with this ones.

>>22949989
this thread was always more about cams, not specifically but often related to Japanese railroads.

>>22949989
Two different interests. At least lately, this has been more of a webcam/fixed camera stream haven whereas /n/ has always been geeking out over the actual railway models, infrastructure, and logistics.
If you go back to 2017, I'm certain this place was exclusively about train stations too, but more about looking at them than finding out how they work... no?

>>22948779
>Where is this from?

As in where the video is from? If so I'm subbed to a bunch of cabview youtube channels and add them to a few playlists as I watch them. I've linked them in these threads previously.

I should just never post outside of this thread, always seem to get banned for the most retarded reasons.

>>22950200
i get banned all the time for dumb shit, mods have no proper priorities

>>22871772
i wish they'd put it back, it was pretty cool.

Theres some cool renders on the burner but unfortunately they have to be done overnight... 3-4 hours each just to squish the speed enough for webm making.

People late for the train today.

>>22955599
Damn, man. How long does it take to render the 1-2 minute time lapses?

>>22956109
It's a multi step process for me, if the timelapse is longer than 5 hours I generally squash it to 2 hour, then render that to 30 minutes, then that to 4, etc.
of course the whole time this is lossy to lossy but streams aren't flawless to begin with

>>22956218
How did you decide on doing it that way? Did a quick test with this one and it only took about 3 minutes in one step with ffmpeg.

Wonder for how long this time the snow is going to remain.

>>22957132
i didn't decide on it, it's what I've got available with the programs I fancy.

fellow weebs, how have you managed to move to japan? how easy was it with your chosen career? i work in the film industry and it pays decently, but i don't know much about it over in japan, i'm not quite sure how difficult it would be to enter without connections over there

are there any drivers view videos of the train going to yunokami station? I looked on yt but I only found one shot from a side window.

>>22987078
Wait a year or two. I will try to make one.

>>22988876
hahaha, cool. I'll still be here

>>22994176
Most static cameras become unrecognizably grainy at that time of night. I'm surprised.

Rambalac:

>Because of personal reasons I will stop walks. >I'm not sure when I come back.
>I'm not going to remove any video, they will stay as is.
>My Kichijoji video will be the last for now.

>>22996637
Sad times. Hopefully nothing serious.

>>22996700
idk, a few days ago he wrote on discord that the last stream had probably changed his life, in a positive way. Did anyone watch it? Though he later wrote that him stopping was caused by something not positve, so might not be related.

>>22996637
I have around 15 of his videos bookmarked to eventually download, I just don't know what I'd do with 4k videos on a computer that can't handle them.. maybe I can pull 2k instead.

>>22996745
I know people can be especially retarded about public recording in Japan, so hopefully it not something along those lines but the "not going to remove any video" line makes me wonder.

>>22996745
could it at all be related to avoiding public walks while the sickness is going around? The wording makes me think otherwise, but I'm curious

There are people that have been in Japan 20 years trying to transition out of English teaching, what makes you think your going to waltz over there with 0 Japanese and work in the same field.

I know I sound like an asshole, but you are completely delusional about what it takes and your naivety shines through in your post.

Hit me back in 5 years

>>22981324
>>23024295
When I first moved to work in Japan in my technical field, I could barely read/speak/understand any Japanese (i.e. basic tourist stuff). The office speaks mostly English so that wasn't a massive issue and when I got here they threw me into an intensive language course right away. It is possible if you're good at something a company is looking for, but good fucking luck.

Pretty much every other white person I've met is an English teacher tho (or their own native language).

Why can't we have a view of Haneda like this?

>>23026831
That is a nice angle..

has a suicide ever been captured on one of these cams?

>>22874722
The trains in the 3rd link sound like a jet.
In the 4th link I get the feeling that japanese rain sounds much more relaxing than normal rain lol and the crows warn the other crows that a train is coming.

>>23031560
Yeah the "train spotters" shinkansen audio is different quality depending on which of the 3 cams you pick, but it clips pretty hard due to volume.
Sounds amazing sometimes.

https://streamable.com/xrg4h

>>23052308
Good job anon. Was that policemen that immediately show up from the right? The mystery will be if he was drunk or just that much not paying attention. The taxi was stopped at the light, the white guy was barely moving anyway. That's a Japanese traffic incident for you, I guess.

>>23052308
It's amazing to me how courteous everyone was about moving out of the way of the accident.

>>23053000
I think it was passerby, in the footage coppers didn't get there until a bit after. I've seen people make dumbass understeers just from inexperience, plus he was walking fine.

This seems to have an absurdly large filesize no matter what I do, so it had to be squished and sped up an awful lot. Fuck computers.

I wonder what they were there to film.

Looks like most of the Futaba and Namie area cameras in Fukushima isn't going to come back.
I can't even find the Namie station feed anymore.

You have to scroll a bit to see the camera choice. The ones in red are turned off during the late/early hours.
They are listed in the github, but there is this cool street full of cameras, they are in Soemon-cho on the other side of the dotonbori river/street: http://soemon-cho.com/active/camera/

https://livecam.asia/osaka/osaka-chuo/anicom-sompo-kinki.html - some office, it is suppose to start at 9 (1 hour and 40 minutes), hopefully not as blurry as the example picture

https://eonet.jp/highway/
https://livecamera.fujiyamasan.com/osakafu.html
https://ihighway.jp/pcsite/map/?area=area06 (has self-made time lapses)

In short, I guess writing in a search engine ライブ カメラ and then the name of a city in Japanese does help finding all sorts of random stuff.

>>23069833
thank you for the resource
this is controlled using the buttons in the window and has a non-horrible framerate (maybe 8)

>>23069932
i meant to attach

>>23069934
Yes. And actually red doesn't mean it is down. Only the 八重桜 one is down. The name is tree related and the other two red ones are of trees too.
I actually got confused by this one http://www.isshinji.or.jp/camera2/index.cgi Different temple that was looking at. The outside camera on the left is giving an error. The one on the left is saying it is suppose to start at 8, so in 25 minutes. We will see, I guess.

Great stuff, i always feel like there is so much like this i miss out on because i don't understand the runes.

>>23070062
the best time to start is yesterday. I've done half-assed study for two years and still can't read well as a result, but I can navigate my way around jp stores with the help of plugins like Yomichan to tell me what new kanji mean and how to say them.
even if you have brain damage you can learn hiragana in a week and then force katakana in just by reading loanwords
and when it comes to technology, there are an absolute ton of (english, but not always) loanwords. like live camera = ライブカメラ.
but take my advice, never set foot in /djt/ on this board, they're basically all tripfags eating eachother's shit and wallowing in irony.

>>23069992
So the camera on the right (the one inside) is broadcasting now. But there is nobody on it so I am not sure about framerates and stuff.

Looks very.. well, traditional

>>23070154
>>23070269
There is a person inside right now. Certainly low framerate.

So this is like 7 offices from around Japan (first 3 in Tokyo, though). Only still images that refresh once a minute, plus the page refreshes once a minute too (a minute from when you have opened it, so not synched with the cameras).

>>23070097
>even if you have brain damage you can learn hiragana in a week and then force katakana in just by reading loanwords
lol, should be right on my level then

>>23070584
don't fall into the idiot trap of those game-y apps and websites like duolingo. they're there to make it take as long as possible while gating progress behind shit like achievements and levels.
if you have true interest in deciphering runes, you can do all of it for free with a litany of apps like anki (vocabulary flashcards) and there's plenty of ways to get pdf scans of textbooks too.
people hammer home "consume native content" because it's the best way to start paying attention to words you hear and read.

for me, that was typhoon coverage in the summertime, and learning the difference between words that all translate in J-E dictionaries as "damage" but have subtle differences in meaning.

破損 is for small objects like dishes. You can write "破損した家財道具" to say household furniture, tools, etc. were damaged. Not the house itself.
損壊 is only for big destruction like buildings, towns
損害 and 被害 are similar meaning.They mean damage detrimental to people, like loss of money or goods. financial damage etc due to robbery, fraud, etc. It is never used for human life.
破壊 is also the 'image' and concept of destruction, such as 'culture destroys language' 'war results in only destruction' and similar abstract usage. but is usually for large scale damage to environment, civilization, and living areas.
浸水 is water inundation entering an area.

Im not even an otaku, barely watch anime nowadays
but these streams are cozy. I feel like ive seen some
of these places before and there is a strange nostalgia
watching some of these webms. Sorry for the blog post.

>>23072152
I relate to that. I haven't honestly sat down to watch a new anime in ages. I feel kind of bad about it- I'd probably enjoy myself if I took the time to find something, but it's hard to find the time and the energy these days. I miss being a teen and just flipping on Kids WB or Toonami or Adult Swim, but maybe I just miss the culture.

>>23075979
haven't seen anime in 5 years and if I go back to it, it'd be as a learning tool rather than entertainment
but organizing images of streams is a bit cathartic for me

A new digest video featuring ONLY footage where trains are passing on the "mukoushi" line

>>22926139
very nice

Too bad there isn;t a camera that lets us see all of the ferris wheel.

>>23085200
It can look really nice sometimes

>>23087917
There was a (low-res) one the FNN building, but they took it offline long ago.

>>23011528
Soon. May 10th, I'll finally be able to make the pilgrimage

>>23088433
They also had one looking across the bay.

>>22885542
not enough

a quiet train ride POV

I cant fit this under 3MB without ruining the framerate
4chin is a joke, and not the funny kind

Update on the Ueda bridge. The overhead wire was removed and dismantlement of the damaged segment began in January, repair cost estimated at 800 million yen, plan is for service to be restored Spring 2021..

found a nice /n/ train account while searching. twitter ' nikoFTn '

up you go

>>23097230
I kind of want a stream in a grocery store or somewhere now. Just watch people go about their daily lives.

>>23097514
That's the closest thing I know of. It has some downtime in the year, especially lately with the audio turned off.
Behind the camera is a small area called Studio10 where idol units/monkey trainers perform on weekends, the picture-in-picture has been gone for a while too.

purging old footage

>>23097542
that filename should say 2019
just feeding fish

>>22948779
Thanks. I really miss that webcam.

>>23094154
At least Sukayu Onsen has still had decent snowfall this year.

>>23107337
Most of the west coast got plenty. My back hurts just watching them clear the stairs.

Should Coro-chan take me without mercy, I will force myself to reincarnate as a train station in Nagano. It will have 8k 144fps delivery and a binaural condenser mic setup, and no human inhabitants except a cute village miko that visits once a week to practice karaoke inside the booth.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_zoIUoNs154

hokkaido news report showed up on one of the camera channels.
Most of the west coast getting a bit of it today.

>>23115440
also one of the train cams is getting hammered by snow right now, I'll post a recording later... I was supposed to also post snow last month but never got around to rendering it.

>>23115487
Oh, it already cleared up but the sky is quite dark, so more may come.

Yeah, they're getting it pretty good in Tokachi right now.

Obihiro airport has cancelled all flights:https://fltinfo.5971.jal.co.jp/rsv/ArrivalAndDepartureSectionInfo_en.do?DPORT=OBO&APORT=HND&DATEFLG=

>>23116739
Hmm, we may see more of this soon enough. I tuned in multiple times yesterday (it was too dark to see any snowfall) but never saw tracks on the ground.

This hasn't been posted yet, has it?

City street view somewhere

>>23121277
It is in Fukushima.
This reminded me of another street camera, but I think it went under a while ago.

Also a fairly recent addition i think?

>>23121306
I recorded it for 2 hours and was reminded of how Japan simultaneously has a really cool car culture and how you will never see it outside of events, because commuters all drive shitty quarter ton Mazda trucks, kei cars, and the ugliest fucking vans on the planet.
Not a single good looking vehicle on the entire footage.

>>23122814
Taxes ruin everything.

>>23122814
Good for me as I want to ride a bicycle there.

>>23122843
What are Japan's taxes like?

>>23122843
Yup. I heard about the regulations related to vehicle size and power, it's equally bad in Australia and the UK apparently.

If thing turn out ok in the summer, I will check in on Ebisu Circuit again. It's been empty most of the winter.

>>23122905
A tax when purchasing which I think was 5%, annual tax based on engine size and then at inspection there's a tax based on weight. Makes the smaller cars much better options for daily driving as they have a much reduced yearly rate. Driving a larger vehicle is also a pain as a lot of roads in towns/cities are really tight for driving on.

>>23122909
I'm from the UK originally. You pay once per year and it's based on age and emissions. Also the car culture is one of my favourite things about Japan, and I still need to get back to Ebisu at some point.

>>23122982
I've seen a little bit of Ebisu in action from driver uploads on youtube plus that noriyaro fellow, I love the idea of a communal scrapyard where you can either borrow cars or just take parts off the others and get back to racing.

>>23123005
Noriyaro, while drift centred, gives a good overview of the car culture. I'm more of a grip guy myself.

Well, the weather in Obihiro cleared up enough to resume flght operations...

...so now Aomori's getting hammered.

>>23125921
oh, I thought it was virus related activity suspension

Very good thread thank you

>>22866227
simple

>>23048539
Is that a tail?

>>23069585
Absolutely ghostly
Do you have any more shots/webms like that?

>>23134469
We have discussed this before. It is an umbrella. Magnify the image. Originally some people thought it was a big scar.

>>22866070

>>23134496
Unfortunately no, i wish i had recorded more of those cameras.
Some of the views were almost surreal before the cleanups started, entire abandoned towns and villages overgrown but still with the streetlights on and in one case an old vending machine still powered on.
Reminded me of YKK in a way, just without all the water.

Is there something happening in Tokyo this year?

>>23140417
Corona-chan is making sure it doesn't happen.

>>23140417
If this virus dies down, hopefully, the Tokyo Summer Olympics are supposed to happen.

>>23140573
Fuck that. Cancel the damn Olympics.

>>23140605
The Olympic minister of Japan has declared that they have the entire year to do, they don't have to do it in the summer.

But I am with you anon, they should cancel it and wait this out.
