2015 US Nationals TV and Webstream Schedules

[sabinfire]

Well, this is good news. As long as my internet connection holds up, I should be able to live-stream NBC Nats in good quality.

Will continue to explore/test a couple other streaming services, just to have other options available.

I can also 're-broadcast' the events after the live portion has concluded, as well.

Okay, here's another stream, using Twitch.

Opinions/observations appreciated.

so far so good.

I have watched twitch before, it usually is pretty good. I can do screenshots if you find them helpful.

Sure, if you don't mind. I don't like playing my own stream while live-streaming, since it can cause additional bandwidth and possibly affect the live-stream quality.

I was watching...just a bit lagging from time to time but mostly quite good. I was watching Anna's performance.

I'm currently using a higher-quality setting than I used last night. Is the sound synced properly? Anyone else seeing any performance issues?

The sound was properly synced. The video got choppy sometimes but I was able to see the whole performance without problems.

here you go.


I think the screenshots turned out better on the other, it looks a little better when watching.

Or maybe Radionova is just too quick, cuz the commercials look great.

I'm using firefox and viewing with my VPN on. BTW.

Just thinking the same thing. It's hard to capture a fast-moving sport on a stream, but you really notice how great the quality is during the commercials.

Newbiespectator -- I suspect having to go through a VPN may cause issues? What do you think so far? Ustream or Twitch?

Yes, when I turned the VPN off, it got much smoother. Both Ustream and Twitch work well...I can't really tell the difference.

:thumbsup: for me on firefox!

Thanks for the feedback, all! Especially StitchMonkey for the frequent updates and screenshots, very helpful.

I dropped the stream for a few seconds to adjust quality, but the Men's event is up now.

So far it seems Twitch has been less work for you. My vote is what makes your life easier.

There's no difference for me on my side. It's just as simple as literally clicking a button now.

The biggest frustration is just trying to determine which quality setting I can stream reliably at. (Still playing with quality settings, so you may be seeing the stream drop at times, usually during commercials.)

Thanks again for doing all of this sabinfire!

 

[Interspectator]

Watching the Mens competition, it got skippy around Fernandez and Vornov. I had the VPN turned off.

 

[StitchMonkey]

I did noticed, but actually thought it was on my end.

 

[Interspectator]

It's better with Kovtun.
