I REALLY appreciate that you guys are managing a webcast for this event! Thank you so much. I can't be there with my team, and it's been great to watch today.

Not a criticism, just curious: can you improve the quality of the webcast at all? I'm trying to scout, but I can't read the team numbers on the bumpers. Is there an HD option available?

Is the schedule on the blue alliance correct?
Also, are the practice matches not showing up on FRC-Spy for anyone else?

Unfortunately we aren't able to take full advantage of the equipment we brought with us because the box provided by the AV crew only accepts a composite (480p) video connection. Our initial hopes were to stream in 1080p. BUT, I'm sure the venue can handle HD streaming-- if we had the proper equipment-- the internet connection here is a beast!

Thanks for trying.

It helped when you showed the angle from the truss and showed a quick closeup of each side of the field.

If we can get that angle before each match, we should be able to get an idea of what each robot looks like with the bumpers clearly showing, before switching to the full-field view.

THANK YOU! The webcast was great today. It was nice to be able to see our practice matches. You rock!

Best of luck to our friends, 868 and 447.

What's with the weird sound repeating in the webcast?

[Michael Hill]

Actually, it sounds like some cool FRC remix.

Did everyone lose the sound in the webcast?

We turned off the sound because of the looping. No sound just seemed like the better alternative.

Got the problem fixed over lunch, it should be a-ok now.

Yup, seems fixed. Thanks for streaming!
