This live streaming is really turning into a bear! I thought it would be fairly straightforward after we had the TriCaster since that beast is ready and prepared to send the live vodcast out but I was way, way off. That was only the beginning. Just because it can send the live vodcast out doesn't mean its easy. So far I can get it out, but the problem I am faced with is it's really jumpy and the audio cuts in and out. I was hoping to solve that with increasing the bandwidth, but that doesn't seem to do anything. I was able to have the TriCaster directly servce the video and that seemed to work fairly well, but that is only a viable solution for one or two users. Beyond that, the bandwidth limitations will be too great. So I continue to work with Mogulus trying to get that working. I'm on the NewTek forums hoping for help, I've been to LiveTV, to ZapLive and uStream.tv in an effort to find someting that will work, but I just can't seem to get it yet. Thankfully there are some knowledgeable folk at work who are interested as well, so I'll pose the problem to them on Monday. For this weekend, people will have to manually point their Windows Media Player at the ip address that I won't know until Sunday. So if you are interested in watching live for Sunday, find out right now how to point your Windows Media Player at an http stream!
