The Marra's are working on embedding Youtube videos into TBA, so that will work in the other direction when it all get's going.

I need to write code to consume this spreadsheet and create a lot of YoutubeVideo objects on TBA.

If someone wants to get the scaffolding in place, I'll gladly take a pull request! I'm at SXSW until Tuesday, so I am hoping to do this before next week's regionals. https://github.com/gregmarra/the-blue-alliance


Also, the script that Daniel wrote that this thread is about is amazing. I hope later you write up a post describing how it works, because it's a beautiful use of computer vision!

I recorded the eliminations and the award ceremony of the Lake Superior webcast. I have the video in four chunks with .asf containers. I can also encode these files into mp4/h.264. The quality of the video from the webcast isn't that great though.

I'm working on some code that uses Google's gdata api to take the spreadsheet and grab a csv of it. I am having a little trouble with Oauth.

I'll send you a pull request when I get it working. Then you could use it to make the YoutubeVideo objects, since I am not sure how to do that.

how are people recording the webcasts? I wanted to do so for Gull Lake, didn't have time to set it up and test.

With this project going on, along with FiM posting to youtube, would it be safe to say that I shouldn't spending a lot of time setting up my own recording for future competitions?

2363 is planning on videoing from the top of the stands and parsing the video into matches at both Virginia and NC. We will get them to you as soon as we finish them up.
