Testing live streaming of SyPy tomorrow (2nd July 2011)!

[Timothy Robert Ansell]

Hey guys,

Can't make it to SyPy tonight, but don't want to miss out on the talk? We will be testing live streaming video and audio and I need your help to make sure it works! It's still very experimental so your mileage is going to vary widely.

The primary location for watching the video will be at http://tims-video.appspot.com/sypy

The website includes twitter integration ( tweet with #sypy ) and IRC chat ( irc://irc.freenode.net/#sypy ).

The system supports HTML5 (H264, Ogg Theora and WebM) and Flash streaming, this should cover most desktop browsers. The system does not support mobile systems yet (which includes the iPad), it might work, but it's more likely it won't.

If you are having problems viewing the video, please try the following things and send me a report.

• Try switching to the SD stream. You can do this two ways, one by clicking the HD button in the corner twice, or by going to http://tims-video.appspot.com/sypy?hdoff=True
• Try switching to the Flash stream. You can do this by going to http://tims-video.appspot.com/sypy?flashonly=True
• Try switching to both the Flash SD stream. You can do this by going to http://tims-video.appspot.com/sypy?flashonly=True&hdoff=True
• If the stream freezes at any time, please try and reload.

If you have other problems like the sound being quiet or the display being wrong in anyway, or if you can't get the stream to work, please send me an email with the following details;

• Browser Type (Chrome, Safari, IE, etc)
• Exact Browser Version (a screenshot of the about page would be awesome!)
• Operating System - as much detail as possible (IE Ubuntu Lucid 64bit)
• The speed and type of Internet connection you have. (IE ADSL, Cable, ADSL2 and 256k, 6M). You can find this information in your ADSL model. 
• Please go to http://www.speedtest.net/ and send me the numbers the widget reports.
• Anything else you think is important.

Thanks

Tim
