UTC Scrimage
 

The UTC Scrimage can be found at www.shsrobotics.org. THis has been brought to you by Team 230; The Gaelhawks. :D

Re: UTC Scrimage
 

For some reason my Windows Media player 9 cannot view the webcast. It's an asf file so I assume that's the right player. Any thoughts?

Re: UTC Scrimage
 

The webcast is encoded for Windows Media 9, so 9 should work...we have low bandwitdh, so expect problems... :rolleyes:

Re: UTC Scrimage
 

It's working well for me, Ken, though there's a lot of buffering. I'm using Media Player 8, however.

I'm quite surprised by how much tussling is going on, as well as how little hanging is taking place.

Re: UTC Scrimage
 

The hanging is really awesome, when it happens, but most teams can't do it. A team that could only hang would have a pretty good chance all by itself...

The deciding factor is human player shooting - if a robot can push balls to the human player and they can shoot most of the balls into the goal, they'll get points. But if a team can hang, that negates five balls right there...

Multipliers are rarely used, though they can really decide the game if it's close.

Aaah, competitions are so exciting...

Edit - And the winners are!

Re: UTC Scrimage
 

well the links down im guessing because its over! lol... is there anyway for someone to split up the file and make a series of vids from some of the matches?

Re: UTC Scrimage
 

direct link to webcast

Instead of streaming it, is there a way to download it as the movie file.

Re: UTC Scrimage
 

The steam ended i think(as in its not downloading now ;)). Are you going to be putting video of it up? It'd be a great help to teams who couldn't make it to a scrimmage.

Re: UTC Scrimage
 

Yes, could you please post some video for download, I would love to see our robot in action from a different view. (when it actually was in action :ahh: )

Re: UTC Scrimage
 

i liked when our arms well apart/off.. i would love to see that again!

Re: UTC Scrimage
 

we only had a few tapes and two cameras when we were filming, so we had to keep switching between cameras and tapes. when one tape ran out, we would switch to the other camera, rewind the tape, and switch back when the other tape ran out. in other words, we recorded over some of the earlier matches... :(

-but- we do have the tapes as they were last used, which is probably...the last seeding matches, the alliances pickings, and the semis/finals. there's no guarantee, but i can try to get something up with whatever we have, sometime soon. then ya'll can see yourselves in acton, at least a little bit! :D

right now we -do- have pictures up! go to www.shsrobotics.org and click the link on the homepage... ;)

Re: UTC Scrimage
 

As was stated earlier, we didnt save the footage. Our goal wasnt to save every second of footage, but to alow teams to see it live. Last year we uploaded several files that were a couple hundred megs, then people started to download them and it locked up our server. We will take a look at what we have and try to edit some good clips from it, but you have to give us some time- As we are pretty burned out- (We do the Animation stuff too!!!)
Thanks for your interest-
