Great news! Thanks for alerting us to the alert!

Yup, Athletics and CIT were both scrambling on this, this week. Apparently i2Sports is very dependent on students... who are on spring break this weekend!

Having the video netcast be free for the Quarterfinals is a nice touch.

Oh son-of-a.... The one week it's free is the one I'm going skiing. *sigh* (I know, why are you going skiing during playoffs?)

Glad I got my letter of protest in before the announcement.

What was the letter of protest protesting? Lack of coverate from i2Sports?

This is the best news I've heard all day

does anyone know what kind of bandwidth they are going to be able to support? I could see the slashdot effect taking place at about 7:05...

Three dancing bananas for Al and the others who are making this possible. Note: dancing bananas intentionally omitted for the sake of not overusing them.

Thanks Al! :D

FWIW at 5:05, I was able to connect to the "Main Link" but not to the "Test Link"--either directly or via cutting and pasting the URL.

Same with me...okay on the main link but not the test link....however I just get a blue screen with the main link....I am assuming that it is not turned on yet? Is anyone getting a live picture yet?

OK. For someone who hasn't had the opportunity to watch a net broadcasted game yet this year please inform ... What version of WMP do I need? Thanks in advance!

So there will be video...but no graphics. Will there be Adam Wodon's audio? Or we will have to guess at the score if we tune in during the middle of the game?

Just tried the main and test links at 5:38 and both show a live shot of Lynah...now sure what the difference is between the two but I'm sticking with the main. Awesome!

So at 6:00 on a game night, they're out wiping down the glass. Learn something new every day....

Pretty jumpy now (6:09 pm). Tuning pains, I hope.

test is a much more grainy video feed--lower quality. Stick with main! Very excited that I get to see this game!

I'm getting audio on the main feed, but the video is just a blue screen. is that what everyone else is seeing too?

anyone else getting a lot of revbuffering and just a blue screen?>

with the main i have audio but only a blue screen. testing the test now

Yes I am seeing a blue screen from the main link, 6:23pm.

got nothing w/ the test....dah

I have been told that the blue screen is there while testing audio - and all should up and going shortly.

623, my birthday

anyway, the test link = long load time. blue screen, no audio. back to main.

Blue screen here, too - I had a shot of blank ice momentarily (around 6:10 EDT) but it's gone now...

now no audio either?

Thanks Adam.

Now stop poking around here and get back to studying Clarkson's jersey numbers for the call of the game!

yay!! picture and the boys ar eout! not just for the audio...

yep no audio, blue. thanks for the heads up adam. wish i were in the rink with you back to work

I see skaters but hear no audio.

The audio links usually don't kick in until half past.

We have sound.

audio - someone needs to tell adam he is on the air

video solid, audio in and out

just wanted to say thank you to Cornell for this one!

And now... audio with a blue screen. "It makes a fellow proud to be a soldier..."

There was many a cornell girl who I could compare this webcast to.....such a tease

lol

i am very happy with audio only video would rock but hey i am happy. started the game thread...

does anyone else still get it rebuffering a lot? Or is that just my crappy computer

I'm getting the blue screen of windows on the main!

Adam's pre-game is coming in fine now.

LGR!!!!!!!!!!1

You may be able to change your buffer setting in WMP - I had to do this once when playing video.

I've got the latest version of WMP, and in TOOLS l OPTIONS, then the PERFORMANCE tab, I can play with the buffer settings, although right now I have it set to the default.

no buffering problems here. listening to coach and adam chat it up

there goes a rebuffering. lol. and another...spoke too soon!

still video is up with audio now

video is on now! (I wish they'd remove the darn VCR display that is right on top of the goal cage...!)

with changing the buffering settings....increasing the buffer time does what?

pretty smooth now...although audio just went out after schafer interview

this thing might just be crazy enough to work!

smooth video and audio now. sounds and looks good

audio and blue now. no buffering problems. i think the video will come once the hour hits

good, that makes me feel better that I'm not the only one without video

then it suddenly comes on...doh

still video on and off audio.

jeez...its so empty!! I mean even last yr for the playoffs it was close to full 10 mins before the game!

choppy audio here and vertical multicolored lines

smooth audio and video here!

LGR!!!

very choppy here -> buffy -> in and out audio -> buffer

i asssume there isnt an audio only link right?

i got smooth audio..chioppy video

just turned down the video acceleration and reloaded the link. it is nice now

It's 6PM, and the link doesn't seem to be working. Anyone else have any suggestions? Is the link the same as last night?

Not working for me yet, either. As far as I know, it's the same link.

They became much more adept at turning Adams mic on and off for the webcast, I assume they are doing the same with the video after yesterday went so smoothly. Expect the audio and video to come on at 6:30 with the pregame.

Edited 1 times. Last edit at 03/13/2004 6:23pm. [/Q]
That's what I'm thinking, too. Yesterday they had to do a lot of pre-game testing--to make sure it was gonna work. Hope we're right, atb9.

yep getting a file not found error or something similar. probably be on soon

Haha! Yeah, that explanation (aka guessing) is more to calm my nerves...I'll go crazy if Cornell teases us and turns on the video at 7:00pm

by the way, since I just found out that ugarte is BRA...I'm Adam Brown

[/Q]Yeah, I guessed that. I figured you knew too much to be a newbie.

ok, feed is on now.

haha! Sounds like I'm a special agent or something...cool

Can we all agree to write letters to Cornell athletics thanking them for the feed? We've given them a lot of crap in the past; I think we should show our appreciation...

I think that's a great idea... is the proper address athletics@cornell?

I assume so...but I sent my directly to Andy Noel...jan16@cornell.edu

what does accelerating (or decelerating) the video do? i'm having some serious buffer issues.

slow it down to medium or none

thanks adam
