2006 Webcast

[Beth Sweet]

For those of you like me stuck at home during Atlanta, we're in luck! Here (http://science.ksc.nasa.gov/robotics/) is the link to the webcasts from each field. I'm sure that you've all found this already, however I just made the discovery and was very excited. Enjoy!

[Ken Delaney 357]

I went to this link at 9:46 on Thursday and the page cannot be displayed. Is anyone else having trouble?

Hmmm, still working for me, I use Internet Explorer

[haroony341]

its been working for me fine and ive had it on since 915ish.

[Ken Delaney 357]

That's odd I watched the earlier regionals no problem. I have tried several computers at work. I guess it must be on my end :confused: Thanks for the quick reply.

[Dan Richardson]

Its working but it doesn't look like they are showing all the fields yet? I mean they are webcasting them but archie, and galileo seems to just have sponsors lists :-(

Yeah archies down so you wouldn't be able to watch 357 right now anyways.. I'm having the same problem with 1902 being in archie hehe

[Nawaid Ladak]

Anybody have a match list for today?

I know it's only pratcie but it's useflul info to know

[Ken Delaney 357]

You don't understand I get no web page when I click the link. I get "page not found". I can't acess www.nasa.gov at all. What I really want to see today is the VEX competion. My VEX team won the Delaware Regional but we could not make it to Championships due to scheduling issues.

EDIT: I got it to work. When things go wrong on a PC , Restart. Now the link to the webcats work!

For those that are using firefox.

The page will not open. If you have Internet explore open that and paste the reflector address for either windows media player or realplayer in the browser. It will open.

I'm using Firefox and the webcast page opens fine for me. The only thing that doesn't work well is the Windows Media feeds, which I have to save to my desktop and open up manually. Realplayer opens fine as well from the webcast page.

[Daisy]

Is it just me, or is the video quality really bad? I've seen other webcasts, and their quality was way better. Is it just for Thursday, permanent, or this PC?

[Daisy]

For future reference, if the video quality is bad, then refresh the reflector. And if everyone knew that, then I'm repeating it. :)

Have you tried opening a new tab for WM feeds? That's what I do, and the Windows Media players opens up right away for me. Maybe it's just my PC, running Windows XP Pro, WM Player Version 10, and Firefox 1.5.0.2.

[Steve S.]

so what fields is everyone watching?

[Richard Wallace]

Galileo. I've been waiting for my team to show up.

[Hiteak]

Curie, Galileo, and Newton at moment at the moment. During my study block and lunch at school I was watching all of them

[Clark Gilbert]

Remember at 4:45PM (my time) (20 minutes from now) that Dean Simmons & the Kamen Brothers will play for the Thursday WFA ceremony. Be sure to check it out as the band makes their big stadium debut!!!

(I'm guessing it will be on the Einstein webcast).

[Richard Wallace]

Anyone got access to da Vinci (FVC) match results / seedings? I've been enjoying the webcast match-by-match, but it would be nice to see the bigger picture, too.

I heard there are 51 FVC teams competing. I've seen a couple of high-scoring matches; e.g., 50+ points.

[Beth Sweet]

Hmmm, it doesn't look like they're going to webcast the band or WFA... unless they're running late...

[Richard Wallace]

Maybe they're waiting for FVC Qualifying to finish on da Vinci?

Ask and ye shall receive.

Rankings and results through match 46.

[Richard Wallace]

Rankings and results through match 46.Thanks, Dave!

Is there somewhere I can get these myself, after Match 53 this afternoon?

[Richard Wallace]

Looks like the webcast for da Vinci just went down.

Unfortunately there isn't a place you can get them yourself.

Here they are though from the end of Thursday.

[Ken Delaney 357]

I am so frustrated. Yesterday after two hours of trying to access the web casts i got to watch several matches from da vinci. I have the site bookmarked and today it tells me it cannot find the server. I wish I were in Atlanta.

[Richard Wallace]

Ten minutes ago I couldn't get to the link in post#1 here, either.

Just now it worked, and I'm watching da Vinci again. Match Q69 is starting.

[Ryan Dognaux]

Someone might want to tell Sir Charles (on the Curie field) that his mic doesn't mute well. You can hear everything he says even after he mutes it...

edit - sounds like they fixed it...hopefully?

[tiffany34990]

Thanks for the link! I'm watching and wishing I could be there!

Yay for Sir Charles on Curie lol

I miss everyone and being there!

[haroony341]

FIRST is doing web updates after every match. im following galileo and im very impressed by the speed of the updates. i watch the webcast, and following the scores and rankings from first's site. at times the updates are so fast i see the scores abotu 30 seconds before they are shown up screen/webcast.

Morning All,

I will be eternally greatful if any geek out there can tell me how to launch two copies of either RealPlayer or Windows Media Player at the same time. Currently I am limited to two fields because I can only launch one of each at a time. Anyone out there know how to do this? Plllleeeeeeaaaaasssseeeee O:-)

Thanks,

Justin

Why not just watch one field in Real Player and one field in WMP? The only problem is that if you mute Real Player it mutes the system audio.

Yay for Sir Charles on Curie lol


Yeah he went around on the fields... of course, his comments were limited in variety :rolleyes:
