I can only imagine the work involved from the Fluendo guys to get and keep the GUADEC streaming going, and it’s been mostly awesome… but sadly today I’ve missed pretty much everything of interest to me because of connection failures or (as is the case right now, as I’m watching Goodbye GUADEC) video but no audio.
Ah well, good job anyway guys… hopefully I’ll be able to pick up some of it in the archives, and I’ll just have to bully the rest of the gossip out of Gman and yippi when they stop off here on their way back home next week…
I also had problems viewing a number of the archived streams.
For example Robert Love’s talk had the audio cutting in and out throughout, making it pretty useless. Also it seemed like all of the streams were missing the audio on the left channel. Setting VLC to use mono sound made it bearable. But there was still a pretty huge hum.
Another complaint I have is that the camera angles were pretty horrible. Why not set up a straight on shot so people can actually read the slides?
I do appreciate the streams being available, but with a little extra thought they could have been much much better.
