I'll hopefully be getting it for free and legally.

1GB of LL but soon going to 3GB of LL because 1GB isn't enough any more.
-
Yeah I know about the old copper wiring, some of it dates to the victorian ages apparently!
Luckily I live quiet near to my exchange so don't have too many problems, I have quiet a good 2Mb line at the moment and thats fine. Be at Uni next year so I'll get to use there stupidly fast line.

SDSL is very expensive so its not really practical.
The best hope is for when ADSL2+ is standard, then hopefully we will all be getting 24Mbps down and 1.3Mbps up. Its just the wait is awful.
-
And the only other problem is that hak.5 home connection up stream needs to be about 750Kbps, which in the UK is very very rare, don't know about over there, it might be fine.

The tatoo is very convincing.

I thought of the P2P idea but the problem with that is people don't have the same up and down speed (usually) so you are going to need three (maybe more) people to download from probably to get the whole content.
The way my idea works is the hak.5 connection is only connected to the main streaming server which is off is some data-center with a fast connection. Then people connect to that server not the hak.5 home connection.

I haven't had a chance to try any of this as its late here and I need access to more computers but I have had a thought.
For getting it out to people you need it out put by a server with a fast connection. If you have the server running VideoLan then that can stream a stream it is recieving. So you set it a box on location streaming the video to the server which then streams it to the clients.
For the box on location, VideoLan is streaming to the server and it is streaming what it is capturing from a device, like a TV card, Video in on a gfx card etc.
Finally you have the box where everything is being put together (so IRC, video etc.) which is then outputting to the capture device on the other computer.
The only problem I can see is with being to stream up to the distributing server fast enough. I know here in the UK with normal ADSL it wouldn't be possible.
Just a thought.

haven't noticed that when I have run it.
I take it you mean SpaceMonger.

Thought it was time to add a picture of me. Laugh all you want.

I liked Brunel when I went and look around, but I have an offer from Imperial for Computing so thats hopefully where I will be in October.

Well if you have the IRC client that was showing the chat block out a certain list of swear words etc and then if it found a line with them in then it didn't display the line then it would take a lot of crap out. People saying things you didn't want to display wouldn't simply not appear. The word list would take some making though to include all the possibilities. I saw an interesting video from the HITB 2005 conference on getting rid of spam e-mails that used spaces between letters in a word etc. The algorithm is available I believe.
Then you can also stream the people to some trusted people as well. Would limit the possibilities but would make it safer.

kYd thats the PHProxy isn't it.
A nice site by the way.
-
Cool, does the job, some nice features as well.
Going into my toolkit I think.
-
Set up an Apache Server at home running PHP and the run PHProxy on it. Then put a dyn-dns on your IP or a normal dns if you are a static IP and bingo you have your own proxy server.
You could put some htaccess on it and then change your friends for user accounts.

The was a bit odd to put up on the internet. But yes, strangely funny though.
-
Some more viewer content would be nice. I loved War-hopping.
-
I'll consider it for what will hopfully be my IPTV show but I would see it as a later thing after we would have (hopefully) had some success.
-
Why would you want to run it as your screensaver?
Seems a bit odd to me as generally I don't watch my screensaver as I have left my computer which is why the screensaver is on.
-
Well getting people across VoIP and Webcams is easy if you arrange the time when both parties are happy.
-
Does you no harm at the moment Vako, you wait until you try and come off the caffine and have the withdrawal symptoms.
-
A live show would be difficult and cost a lot of money in bandwidth. Not that I am against another IPTV show because the more the better.
You should check out Systm at Rev3 as they have done some good shows. I like the one on configuring Asterisk myself, its my next project in the queue.
-
If its going to be names out of a hat I will play.
The only thing that might be a problem is setting a time when everyone can play, mainly thinking of us over here in the UK and Europe compared to people in the States and Canada.

Tea with 6 sugars is my energy drink. Tastes better and has less crap in it.

How many hours of footage that you shoot to make a "standard" 40-min show?
How much bandwidth does the show use per release?
