Red Cast Really Sucks

[Aaron M. Griffin]

I'd just like to see the infamous question mark above the caption, "streaming video.  ur doin it wrong."

Very nice, but the meme requires the awful "UR" abbreviation.

I debated doing it with the atrocious "UR" abbreviation but consulted the all-knowing Know Your Meme for advice and conventions.

The fuzz filter is in full effect this afternoon for lax. Can't see any jersey numbers.

Couldn't see anything much of second period; wouldn't connect.

The Cornell Sports twitter account asked if any students were looking to film Cornell sporting events as an employment opportunity on campus.

Is the big announcement that a blind chimpanzee with arthritis could film the games better than RedCast has?  Because that's already widely understood.

Were you able to sign up for Redcast already?  At this point it does not quite seem ready yet to allow me to create a new subscription.

I think you may need to wait for "THE BIG ANNOUNCEMENT" before you can sign up and give them your money to burn.

"RedCast has added multi-bitrate streams that work similar to ESPN3 broadcasts"

Now in HD and on mobile devices.

Let's see how quickly it fails!

Football, sprint football, men's and women's basketball, men's and women's ice hockey, wrestling and men's and women's lacrosse will have all home games/dual meets broadcast on RedCast, with audio also available for road contests for football, men's basketball and men's lacrosse contests. Additionally, select events in other sports will also be made available for broadcast on a game-by-game basis. A men's soccer package that includes audio only will be available for home games. Additional contests are expected to be added, with volleyball, baseball, gymnastics and other sports likely to have games broadcast.

No road audio for hockey, or is that just an oversight?

An oversight, it seems. It now lists men's ice hockey:

It better be, or they are going to need bomb detection equipment.

Wow, good news.  Thanks to all who wrote letters.  Now will there be growing pains with this new system?  Will we be allowed to plug in an hdmi cable on applicable devices and watch on a big screen?

They really can't stop you on that one. Even if they can, I don't see why they would go to the trouble of programming the new Red Cast so it wouldn't transfer through an HDMI cable to your big screen. If anything its just going to be that the quality, as always, won't fail to disappoint.

[Chris '03]

Anyone watch sprint football friday to see what the quality is like (or to watch a five hour game)? It doesn't look like it's archived...::help::

Also, either I'm getting really old or the new interface is tough to look at/navigate.
