Ascent Capital Group Inc. reported that the company is confident, based on the support agreement reached with its largest creditors, that it will be able to meet its financial commitments and otherwise continue to operate its business as usual throughout the restructuring period, including paying its employees, dealers and suppliers in the
normal course of business and providing home security to all of its customers. As part of the anticipated chapter 11 process, the company has secured a commitment for $245 million in debtor in possession DIP financing that will be replaced by $295 million in exit financing at the completion of the reorganization. The support agreement contemplates that all trade claims whether arising prior to or after the commencement of the voluntary chapter 11 cases will be paid in full in the ordinary course of business, and that the company will continue operating its business without
disruption to its customers, vendors, partners or employees. Ascent will, subject to, among other things, the receipt of the requisite approval of Ascent’s stockholders, merge into Monitronics. As a result of the merger, all assets of Ascent, including an anticipated approximately $23 million in cash, will become assets of Monitronics.

Cons: Requires cloud subscription to view recorded video. Some
barrel distortion. Doesn't work with other smart home devices. Bottom Line: The Wisenet SmartCam D1 is a smart video doorbell that offers face recognition, sound detection, and sharp image detail. Read ReviewIt's 11 o'clock and someone is at your door. Do you know who's there?If you're an apartment or condo renter, there's a very good
chance the answer is 'No. ' Existing video doorbells don't really work for you – or your landlord's strict rules. Ring Door View Cam has changed that for 2019, replacing your existing apartment peephole. We tested the Door View Cam earlier this year and were impressed by the fact it'll require no drilling into the door or its frame, and it's entirely battery operated. Finally, renters – often young and tech savvy – can become video doorbell owners, too, and see who's knocking at their front door. Here's what we found when trying out the new doorbell.

15. Independently of whether the doorbell camera 106 is electrically coupled to the remote chime 1006 in place of a conventional doorbell, a supply monitoring voltage may be generated 1056 in the bypass unit 1012 based on the input AC voltage to indicate whether the input AC voltage is greater than a supply threshold. In accordance with the supply monitoring signal, a message may be presented 1058 by the bypass unit 1012 to a user of the doorbell camera 106 to indicate whether the input AC voltage is low with respect to the supply threshold. Optionally, the message may include a visual message displayed on the bypass unit 1012 by an LED indicator 1012B according to one of a set of predetermined visual patterns. In some implementations, the message presented to the user may include a ring of the remote chime 1006. By these means, voltage compatibility of the doorbell camera 106 may be determined and known to the user of the doorbell camera 106 before the doorbell camera 106 is installed, thereby avoiding installation of the doorbell camera 106 when it is not even compatible with the supply voltage
provided by the transformer 1010. More details on the method 1500 implemented by the bypass unit 1012 are explained above with reference to FIG. 10D. FIGS. 11A and 11B include a top view 1100 and a cross sectional view 1140 of a doorbell camera 106 in accordance with some implementations, respectively, and FIGS. 11C 11E are
three exploded views of a doorbell camera 106 in accordance with some implementations.
