2015 Arkansas Rock City Regional

[Breakaway3937]

The webcast for this regional will be hosted on Team 3937's USTREAM page. It will go live on Friday morning from open ceremonies through close as well as Saturday morning from opening to close. We will be running a beta test on Thursday after lunch for two hours to make sure the stream is consistent and audio levels are set. You will be able to see the stream from the field, but don't get upset if it drops from time to time on Thursday as we optimize the system so Friday and Saturday have no problems. Here is the link.
Thanks and we will be checking in the chat to make sure you have a good viewing experience of the 2015 Arkansas Rock City Regional.

I have a couple questions. First, thank you for setting this up.

1. What do you mean by stream from the field? Are you allowing driver stations to have a stream running?

2. Will you be recording individual matches and archiving them for The Blue Alliance?

3. Will it be multiple camera or full field view?

Just saw some of the videos. Honestly the turret was shocking; I just didn't expect it. Very cool looking robot, see you next week.

Thanks! We wanted to do something different this year.

Unfortunately our team's administration is not willing to allow us to travel through any bad weather and has cancelled our trip. Team 2352 will not be returning to Arkansas this year.

Clayton, I was very sorry to hear this! You will be missed.

Look forward to seeing all the teams in the next few hours. Just wanted to give you an update on the stream. We are still planning on archiving the match videos for viewers and scouters on the Breakaway 3937 YouTube channel. As I mentioned in an earlier post, how fast they go up depends on the connection. I do not know what quality we will be streaming. We are merely a proxy, so we are at the mercy of whatever quality we are given from the av team.

Drive safely, and we look forward to having you all join us here in Arkansas whether in person or via webcast.

3...2...1...RUSH!

If Breakaway3937 is willing to work with WatchFIRSTNow I can have the matches up within a hour of them occuring.

[Breakaway3937]

We can meet up tonight or tomorrow and work out the details on the archiving with WatchFirstNow.

I'm sorry to hear that! It won't be the same without you all.
We'll miss getting to play with our fellow Oklahoma team!

Sorry to hijack this thread for a minute with a technical question, but I just got word back from our trailer crew who took everything to little rock last night.
It seems that we've had a leak in our trailer and we had water accumulate in our laptop crate. We have backups of production code, but we're worried it will be difficult to get running on a different laptop should it come to that.
Does anyone know if LabView hardcodes absolute paths into the project files?

The project can be moved to a new computer with new folders. I will be the CSA at the event from Team 1108. Look for one of us in the bright orange hats.
