Correction. The night air show will be played on the air show strea
Sorry for the delay, we are having some issues transcoding the video into a usable format to be able to stream. I think we are getting close. Hope by 3:30 at this point and hope I can meet that schedule.Originally Posted by rcmodelr
Look for the stream to come up on the Airshow Camera latter this afternoon. Also, todays airshow will not be streamed as EAA is not having a camera man up on the tower today to record the show, so we don't have a feed to grab.

Sorry we have not gotten the night airshow online yet. Can't get it to burn to a dvd that is playable. Will keep on working on it for all of you.
Any idea how long you'll be able to keep the stream going, assuming you manage to get it on?
Why burn to DVD first? Can't you copy to Hard Drive folder and play it from there? OR... Post it on YouTube or similar site so we can see it when we have time available instead of spending all afternoon/evening/night waiting & hoping it eventually starts streaming.
The problem comes in playing it from a file, we were hoping to do that, but the encoding software we are using in Oshkosh does not allow a play from file to stream. And the format that we were able to record in has to be converted before it can be converted to DVD.
We are looking at other possibilities for getting it online as well.
The server software license we have expires Aug 2, so that is the latest any of the cameras will be online.

ok, I just got home and I think we have this figured out at least for the time being. give this a try and let me know how it works. http://www.haydenworld.com/jwplayer/AV_cam_airshow.htm
it is video on demand, and it is the whole evening airshow which starts with parachutes at dusk and goes from there all the way to the end with a large fireball. It might take the stream awhile to start, but it will.
OK!!! Thanks MUCH!!! I tried it... It took over 5 minutes before it started playing, but so far, it's playing at least as well, if not better than the daily Air Show LIVE streams did.
This video is recorded at the same settings as it would have been if it was live. The only quality difference you may see if less hesitations as our server load is much lower now. typically we had around a 1000+ viewers at a time watching the streams and that was maxing out the server.
To Everyone involved in creating these webcams and streams I would like to say a sincere congratulations and a big thank you ! You have all done a great job !! If you can't make it to the show this is a really great alternative.
Have a great year..

Paul and Todd,
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your work!!!! Truly awesome! I won't mention how you let me down by not picking a format that worked with my state of the art P3 laptop. Perhaps I could donate it to be used as next years server. What do you think?
Thanks again
Rick
P.S. When you get a breather might I suggest a kind of round table of needs and wants for next year. I am sure there are a lot of people who can,will or would contribute to the cause.
P.P.S Not that I will be watching next year as I AM going to be there!!!!
