Broadcast Issues

[bretski]

Just letting you guys know that last episode many of us couldn't see the show after about 50 minutes, only the text chat. I'm not sure if it's a blog tv issue, but just makeing sure that you are aware of it.

My browser just crashed, and when I started it up again, I encountered the same problem as you.

Have you tried rebooting your comp?

I couldn't hear it either, and rebooting my comp is the only thing I didn't try. I downloaded/installed flashplayer 10, I tried all 3 of my browsers - Seamonkey (related to firefox), Chrome, and as a last resort, Internet Explorer. I logged out and back in again.

None of it worked.

I respectfully request that the show be uploaded to Youtube, when it's convenient for the powers-that-be here.

Very strange. It seems many people had this problem, perhaps up to 10% based on the number of people who've messaged me about the show. Really don't know where to place it, as I can't see any pattern (Browser, OS, Flash Plugin version etc.) so I can only suggest it was a problem with BlogTV.

Most people could still hear the show after that mark, but for some it crashed completely. I can say that at no point did the broadcast actually stop, despite the call dropping a few times. I still kept broadcasting the video feed. The only reason audio stopped is because you only get an audio-stream from my Skype when Audio Hijack detects that Skype is in a call. This means you can't even hear me unless I'm in an actual call.

Those dropouts were definitely a problem with dpr, I didn't have that problem once, even during the long after-show conversations.

I heard a few complain about this in the IRC channel too, however, no issues for me. FF 3.6.6 w/linux and flash 10.1

Not much I can do I'm afraid, but I will be uploading some highlights from the show over the next few days.

Thanks, AndromedasWake.

One positive thing you can take from this - your promotional video (that I watched on Thunderf00t's channel) was so successful, it attracted more viewers than Blog TV could handle! :lol:
