Hey Guys,
I am an Alumni from 118 and would like to help with this. I now work for
SnapStream Media, a PC-DVR software company and have alot of knowledge of recording to computers. Originally I was wanting to interface the
SDK from our software with the field software and create an automated recording solution, but have not been able to find the time to work on that.
Our software uses Hardware MPEG Encoding cards such as the Hauppage HVR-1600, or software MPEG Encoding such as the ADS-Tech Mini HD USB Stick. Our software can Record Directly to MEPG or WMV and has the capabilities to transcode to H.264. I can help you guys put together systems that would record directly to the computer and skip using VCRs. Using the 21 day Trial Mode you can use the software for FREE during the competitions.
Also if someone would like to try to interface with the field using our SDK, let me know so I could help you out with that.
Kevin, I would like to help you out in Houston for LSR. I would like to try something using our stuff that could help teams get better access match videos onsite. Maybe something with our
RSS feed generator to host an onsite podcast for match video.
Guys feel free to PM me or contact me at chris(AT)snapstream(dot)com to let me know how I can help.
Chris
