So all going well some of it will recorded at this stage. Baring technical difficulties, there will be a stream from r2. This means you have to be peered at WIX to hear it UNLESS Citylink get something going at APE.
Its being routed internationally. We DO have int capacity and only do WIX/APE only webcasting if the broadcast rights require that. Joe and Chris should be able to watch just fine.
People should be peering at WIX anyway!
Well - yes thats what we believe. But its kinda hard for folks overseas....
Well I know at leat one non-NZ person who was interested. I would guess once things are finished we can distrivuted all the recorded sessions via some other method (ftp, dvd, torrent, whatever).
We're actually doing this remotely. It won't be as good as last year as we're in AKL with teh van and have only left an encoder and router at Waikato. Sorry bout that, but paying jobs have to get priority. However, the WAND folks will do a great job giving us an audio and video feed I'm sure, and that will be available on www.r2.co.nz/20050203 - hopefully in a few minutes. We will record it to disk and then when we pick up the encoder on saturday, have a little editing job to do....... The stream is in multi-bit rate windows media, with 56k, 128k and 256k streams. If it all goes well, files will be available next week. Rich Oh yes - we're still doing Yearling Sales and have all our other stuff going on - so traffic etc may be affected today.
