Thanks, thats a good reason why it didnt work right.<br>
There was only so much bandwidth going to the hall (from the outside)<br>
so no matter how many 'stream boosters' are setup, its still alot of<br>
volume.<br>
Perhaps it should be on the list for the next SOTM11 ? To make sure<br>
that there is multiple bandwith sources, since Ustream.tv 'could'<br>
become a large part of the audience where remote attendence is<br>
equal/greater to physical attendence. Multiple laptops can be set up<br>
to stream the event live with 'co-hosting'. And <a href="http://tinychat.com" target="_blank">tinychat.com</a> can also<br>
be used. (and different languages promoted with translators) :)<br></blockquote></div><br>Sure we will hire translators next year .... <br>More seriously, finding volunteer translators is not easy (understatement) and paying one let alone several is very expensive.<br>
As for bandwith, it is not cheap either if you really want good speed and some locations may not have the capacity to host our load.<br><br>Emilie Laffray<br><br>
