Any idea if the Dean's List ceremony is being webcast?

It is not, one can only hope that someone is recording it...and will post it later somewhere

Is anyone else having problems with the webcasts, or does my computer just really dislike me today? I just got home from school, and they're not working :/

Kara, I've had all 4 FRC field webcasts open in VLC all day without issue.

VLC, right. I now it's just being pixelated...that's probably my problem, though.

I had all kinds of fun yesterday until I followed the suggestion on the NASA website (on the right hand side) and downloaded Media Player 10. I actually downloaded Media Player 11, I think. It worked beautifully after that. Just wonderful.

Apparently the Archimedes feed has been freezing all day, every two to three seconds.

But it's likely just my dad's internet connection.

Anyone else notice this?

It was doing that until I upgraded Windows Media Player to 10, as suggested by Jane.

Most issues can be relieved by upgrading to Windows Media Player 11.

Any other issues will probably result in upgrading your internet connection.

Archimedes was doing that for me yesterday too. It's working fine for me now, but I'm not sure if it's because I have a better internet connection now or if it was some other issue that was resolved.

I still can't open it in Windows Media Player. I tried downloading 11, but it said that I had a better version, and they won't let me downgrade...I'm just using VLC now.

I had some crashes yesterday trying to watch Galileo. Stream died after 2 secs. Otherwise than that its all good.

How does one open the webcast with VLC?

Right click the webcast link and download it. Then open it with VLC.

Edit: Or do Sean's right click stuff...
