JenBliss Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 I know that in past seasons people brought us the idea to turn a webcam to the shows so that the west coast doesn't have to wait. Does anyone think this would be a good idea and would people watch??? My idea would be to show it through a yahoo conference room would this work any suggestions. Let me know. I am glad that I live on the east coast and want to help out my fellow west coast BBers. Only 3 more days!!!! Jen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marty Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 West Coaster here. Would love to see a webcast. Don't know anything about Yahoo conference room. That would be a really nice thing Jen! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snipa Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 I've been looking at TV tuner cards, but I don't know how they will interact with my PCI-E video card and my nvidia 8800 is a huge card, and i think all my PCI slots are covered, but I can look into it and if I can do it, i can hook my Cable box upto my PC and stream it over a video shoutcast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TwinCity Posted July 3, 2007 Share Posted July 3, 2007 hang tight MeBeCher... some of the members are trying to work out setting up their webcams and sending out live stream ... just keep checking in. It will be ET I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mendes56 Posted July 3, 2007 Share Posted July 3, 2007 Hey MeBeCher, I feel you! TV shows here run on the same schedule as the Central Time Zone. Look on the bright side, if you decide to get the feeds you'll see the late night antics at a fairly reasonable hour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mendes56 Posted July 3, 2007 Share Posted July 3, 2007 Been there, done that and now I love living in Hawaii. Hopefully Fuskie will do the play by play and someone will be able to webcast the show so I can have my sunshine and eat it too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mendes56 Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 Thanks Jen, not sure what I'm doing wrong. It may be that I don't have the right equipment but I never got the video portion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snancypants Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 I am only getting the sound also - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mendes56 Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 With Jen's help, I got video. She has to give you permission to view. We were in IM and a window popped up for me to accept an invite (I think). Go to jenjessebliss in YAHOO messenger while you're also in the chat room listening to the audio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sean89 Posted July 4, 2007 Share Posted July 4, 2007 Somebody with a TV-card that is on the east coast could use the website Stickam.com to broadcast the show. They can handle thousands of people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
