I'm sure there will be, or you could just bookmark it now

It is also very possible NASA could Webcast both the VCU and/or DC regionals.

James Byrne (360) and the Bellarmine Prep Student Engineering Program Alumni Association plan on handling the Portland Regional and Microsoft Seattle Regional.

Is there going to be a Nasa page of the webcast links this year?

There aren't any listed there as of yet, but this should be updated as each weekend approaches. As I recall, it was often updated at the last minute last season.

This is true!

Yes, and very soon. I will create a thread once the list of features that will be available at launch is finalized. This should be before tomorrow evening.

Sorry for not being on top of these threads this year, running a rookie team and trying to keep up with University is keeping me busy....

Looks like I will only be able to cover Waterloo on Saturday (possibly Friday... depends on my classes), Paul, Karthik and I will get to re-unite for some webcast shenanigans again this year. If anyone remembers the Waterloo webcast last year Paul and Karthik together can be a ton of fun.

As for GTR, I can put a webcast up if Discovery isn't doing it this year. But I will need someone to either watch the webcast for me, or email me when it goes down seeing as I'll have a team to run. I will be recording GTR this year, seeing that no one got it last year.

The using the FIRST Wiki was a great idea, and I hope everyone adds to that.

If anyone knows whether or not the Buckeye regional will be webcasted could you please announce it along with the link ASAP. We have some people here in SC that will not be able to make the trip but would like to watch the action if possible. Thanks

The 2009 Buckeye Regional will be webcast by Delphi E.L.I.T.E. Team 48 with the help of Team 291, CIA. The link is http://live.delphielite.com.

I send a link to the Coordinator if the regional this morning and hope that it will be posted very shortly.

Help!

I'm at the BAE regional setting up... everything worked great at home... but (you knew there had to be a but)... at the arena everything works up to the ustream.tv broadcast window. It comes up after broadcast now, status says "broadcast stopped" and the green broadcast button isn't available. The server monitor window *IS* showing the video stream I'm sending... I suspect an arena network issue, but I've no idea if opening ports 1935 for both TCP/UDP in/out and the IRC chat port of 6667 will help. Its odd that the broadcast window shows the video... also the chat window is working. I'm stumped.

Any suggestions? The arena folks have left for the day so any changes will have to wait until tomorrow. Having a suggested shopping list of changes to try could help the process along.

Sounds to me like connection issues, if you are seeing the video stream then it is all working on your end, but the video isn't getting out to the ustream.tv servers. Could be firewall issues or port issues (not sure about this), read through ustream.tv's help documentation and see what they say.

[Justin]

I'm not really sure why you would need to open inbound ports. I was under the impression that the whole idea of ustream.tv was to send video out to them so you didn't have to open ports and get into that mess. I would say make sure you are broadcasting against the right show. Also make sure that you have the video and audio source set right in the ustream console. In theory of course if you are seeing video on the server monitor then video is making it to ustream which would lead me to believe that it is something to do with the way the show is setup on the ustream side of things.

Sorry for not being able to be more specific but maybe something there will help. Good Luck.
