Re: Regional Webcasts : Week 3
 

The silicon valley regional one isn’t working either so i think it has something to do with the website.....

Re: Regional Webcasts : Week 3
 

Boilermaker is working for me, using the link via the Boilermaker web site posted 2 or 3 above this post.

You might be better off to copy and paste this into "Open URL" in Windows Media Player:

mms://sargasso-3.arc.nasa.gov/boilermaker

Thanks!

Re: Regional Webcasts : Week 3
 

I can't get silicon valley or Boilermaker feeds to play. :(
Maybe my school's network is going screwy again.

Re: Regional Webcasts : Week 3
 

I’m still getting the error, there's most likely a cap on how many people can watch the webcast at a time...

Re: Regional Webcasts : Week 3
 

im not having any problems with opening the boilermaker webcast
i don't know what to tell you

Re: Regional Webcasts : Week 3
 

I like the camera position @ Boilermaker except you cant see the RTS feed

Re: Regional Webcasts : Week 3
 

Hmm, works now that I'm home... :p

Re: Regional Webcasts : Week 3
 

I wanted to watch Chesapeke, Peachtree, and Midwest

(anyone know if 111's webcast is up yet.)

Judging by everyone's problems and my own issues with opening the webcasts up, 80% of your problems are being caused by firewall issues. That being said, make sure your ports are open. The port ranges that I needed to open varied from port 2175 to port 2288 so make sure those ports are open.

The other 19% of issues people are having may in fact be software based, so there is an alternative to the dreaded windows media player. Enter VLC Media Player a free, open source, and constantly improving video client that comes with every codec under the sun. Download it, Install it, Run it. After that follow these steps to play a media stream.

• Open VLC
• Go to File > Open Network Stream (ctrl+n)
• Click the Network Tab in the new window
• The third radio button down, HTTP/HTTPS/FTP/MMS, click that
• Copy/Paste either into the URL box next to what you just clicked
  • mms://sargasso-3.arc.nasa.gov/live
    • in for the Silicon Valley Regional feed or
  • mms://sargasso-3.arc.nasa.gov/boilermaker
    • in for the Boilermaker feed
• Press Ok
• Watch

Getting the Wildstang/Silicon Valley Real Media feed in VLC

• File > Open Network Stream (ctrl+n)
• Click the Network Tab in the new window
• 4th Button down, rtsp click it
• Paste below into the URL box next to the button you clicked
  • • for Midwest (Thanks Wildstang):
  • rtsp://live.wildstang.org:554/broadcast/live.rm
    • or for Silicon Valley:
  • rtsp://live:live@explorer.arc.nasa.gov/broadcast/secure/live.rm
• Press Ok
• Watch

I'm having problems with the 111 feed right now, but the process is the same for all Real Media feeds. The .rm feeds tend to be picky with the video, and it's not the most stable part of the program so my advice is to use Real Media, but if you can get it to work, good for you.

Re: Regional Webcasts : Week 3
 

This might possibly be a 'you know you're addicted to FIRST when...' thing.
I've got both the Midwest and Boilermaker feeds running at the same time. :yikes:
Figuring out what audio is coming from what event is slightly confusing, but I can deal with it. :p

Our webcast URL has changed, please get it from here:

Re: Regional Webcasts : Week 3
 

Are they actually going to show the NASA webcasts this week.

They say when available.
Does anyone know if that means they are going to actually run?
