On a side note, I believe the choppiness is due to an issue on their end. Slow/overloaded connection or a hardware issue.
We have a 2.5mpbs up and down connection. The computer webcasting is doing nothing else. The choppiness exists if we use our wired connection, venue wireless, or a cellular connection. We have tried on two different computers, using two different video capture devices. If we capture video using VLC, there is no choppiness. There is no choppiness in the ustream.tv preview window.

The same problem exists on multiple ustream.tv shows on multiple ustream.tv users. It also exists on Mogulus, a similar live streaming site.

I am completely perplexed. My only theory is that there is some sort of QoS system somewhere that is making things buffer in a bad way. I do not know what I will be able to do to get around it.
