Thanks! I'll pass your praise along to the rest of the video crew. The entire A/V production is being run by high school students from 2910, 1983 and 1318, including the A/V switching and technical direction. A lot of credit goes to Kevin Ross and the fine folks at FIRSTWA who helped get the equipment setup figured out and secured access to the high speed internet at all of the venues.

For reference, we are streaming 720p 30fps from a Matrox Monarch hardware encoder. Here's a picture of two of the equipment setup from Auburn Mountainview last weekend:
