This NOT the Orlando webcast!!

Both the redalliance and the blueallaiance are linking to the roboshow. I guess those guys get something for number of watches, but it is frustrating and misleading that they are claiming to be the regional webcast but are not.

TBA and TRA: please fix your links!

The link to the Orlando webcast is:

Howell is the Broadcast 1, Escanaba is Broadcast 2, if I'm not mistaken.

Orlando keeps randomly switching to another regional for a few seconds at a time. It is annoying.

Hey Martin, you are absolutely correct and the NASA guys have been the backbone of broadcasting this regional since 1998 when we were out at Kennedy Space Center.

The NASA team, our RoboShow team, and the RoboVision On Demand crews all work together with support of the regional committee at the Orlando regional. We have shared crew support, cameras, and other gear to allow us to aim for 3 different "goals". The NASA guys are providing an all-day webcast all 3 days of the in venue feed that teams have grown to love over years, RoboVision On Demand is mixing and archiving videos to support team scouting and for teams to use later for fundraising purposes, and RoboShow's goal is to create sports-show like coverage Friday afternoon and Saturday afternoon both as a form of mentoring students on teams as well as for people to share with those "new" to FIRST to help explain what is happening.

It's pretty annoying that in 2014, despite the existence of several websites designed to make this problem go away, I still need to have like 5 browser tabs open to watch the streams I am interested in.

Is anyone getting anything from the Dallas stream page?

I have been having a ton of trouble with the Dallas stream. Stream seems to go down every twenty seconds and then randomly start working again.

Anyone else getting really low FPS, like under 30, and definitely less than 720p when watching? I'm sure that it isn't my connection, but I'm not sure how the number of people watching right now could affect playback. I love the number of angles they have though. They literally put a camera in every angle that you could think of, this is probably the biggest + they have over other streams.

Both Michigan streams are down, Howell is reduced to just audio...

The resolution is fine, but the camera angles dancing every 5-10 seconds. It's exceptionally annoying.

You can watch all the Howell matches here.. that's what I do.

The matches are uploaded soon after each ends. Just refresh that page every once in a while.

The Chestnut Hill webcast on TBA is incorrectly linked to a recording. This is the correct webcast link - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5PKGGCu7VKc

I've given up on the FLOR webcast. Two to three matches before 624 the webcast drops then comes up right after their match ends. This is the same thing that happened to them at Alamo. Kind of suspicious.
