Quote from: flyersgolfI not bothered to list all the screw ups from this service the last few games.  Video cutting out multiple times, no HD etc.  But tonight the service cut out at the beginning of the 3rd and I could not get back on.  RedCast is dead, like the server went down.  Well I guess I will catch up on Shameless from last week.
I'm still on, but at least I know not to disconnect or I might wind up unable to get back on. Though with the way this game is going, that might be a blessing...

Redcast perfect for me. Nice goal, down 2 with 2 minutes, just pulled Iles, called TO and New Cornell Fight Song.

Let's see what we can do...

AAAAAAND Dags gives it away in front of an empty goal.

I was going to say, best broadcast since Colorado College, looked great on the big screen.  Then the 3rd period was a disaster, typical redcast. Losing picture, having to log on 3 times, voice and video out of sequence.   Is this because more users were on in the 3rd period?  Also not sure what camera operator was focusing on, should follow the puck.

Yeah, I was a bit confused as to whether the camera operator was watching the game or being distracted by watching Up in Smoke on his or her smartphone.  Sloooooooow panning...

Fluid pan head would help. If they've got one already, then the rule has to be: Only study for exams between periods.

It doesn't help if the operator doesn't pan. Random tech is not the solution to everything Bill.

So, how was the Redcast? The video replay on the ECAC site looked quite good. Tough that the intro pic shows Gotovets, who didn't play.

RedCast was completely acceptable this weekend.  It started on time and didn't drop.  The have managed my expectations really well that this is considered a solid A.

Any grading of A within a thread title including the word "sucks" has to be suspect.
