A quick heads up.
As noted elsewhere, I did send that email and this morning I had a response.
I am informed that they have located the problem and fixed it as far as the s66 site is concerned.
Until the next time that Kandi is on.
To coin a phrase from another topic "Can the webstreams get any worse ?"
Stream 3 has been down all the weekend. Past experience tells that this will never be fixed if it happens over this time.
And now I note that Stream 4 is also down
I really wish everyone would show a bit of patience and understanding.
This Internet thingy has only been around since the early 1980s and the so-called "World Wide Web" is even newer than that. I really think that we are asking too much of the engineers and computer scientists at the Studio66 research labs to so quickly adapt to all this new-fangled technology.
I mean seriously... Getting a hypertext link to link to what it is supposed to link to!? Surely we are talking about months of painstaking coding, testing and debugging by an army of geeks.
Patience, my friends. All good things to those who wait. I'm sure that once they have solved the Great Dimmer Switch Conundrum of the studio lighting, they will turn their attention to the Phantom Link Theorem that is dogging the webstream.
Stream 4 has stopped working properly again, I tried recording it last night, but it kept cutting out anytime from 8 mins to 25 mins which made it very frustrating
This will be my last post about the state of the webstreams. It basically is a waste of finger-print to tap the keyboard about this anymore.
Stream 2 (as of last night who knows it could be 'fixed' by now) has been totally un-reliable for the best part of a week which takes one back right to the start of the new service. The stream WILL break down anything between 8 and 40 minutes - Saturday's average was 10 - and you are then 'bounced' to another stream. You can wait to get re-connected or try yourself and if it does then work the picture freezes and you have to switch again to get it working. Even as I write this, EmmaC goes on a break and streams are switching quicker than a game of ping-pong.
Streams are not provided for 'clean screen' recording or capping but to encourage the web-viewer to call. Who would call if the girl you speak to suddenly goes awol ?
No point either in contacting the channel about this since they surely know what is going on. They will argue that this is beyond their control. But, at the end of the day, it is well within their control if they really care about the quality of their service.
Errr is it just me, or is the 'site completely down right now ? As in 'can't be found'....
Webstream is erratic bag of shite....consistently...
Tonight (& similar almost every night) SKY941 nightshow stream allover the place...
First 10 minutes...Harry Amelia/Bailey Jayne>Babs Banda>Steph Wright>Kandi Kay>Steph Wright....
..then managed to survive 'til 2240 before the inevitable cutout..
Anybody else finding it impossible to get a picture on their iPad when logging on to the @ home webcam? All I get is a black screen even though my tokens are being taken off!! Come on Studio66 get it sorted. Costing me a fortune for nothing.
Stream 1 isn't working on rampant, and it sends me back to RLC lol. Anyone else having this issue?
Stream 1 is definitely down at the moment. Clare was on for about 1hr before it went down.
The rest of the streams 2, 3 and 4 seem to be functioning fine though.
Well. at least the downtime was short.
Stream 1 is back up now.
