I know there are some who have issues but it is a small percentage compared to the large amount watching the stream. We hit nearly 2600 live viewers at the same time yesterday. That is pretty big for one pocket. I can give some technical advice below. I hope most have enjoyed it.

The match will be starting in less then an hour at 3pm CST! Scott Frost vs Dennis Orcollo for $200,000. You can watch at www.ontherailtv.com or www.ustream.tv/channel/ontherail . We will aslo be streaming it on YouTube also at this link or you can just search for ontherailtv on YouTube. Enjoy! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vn1V0M9zUTw

If you are having issues with your stream go to www.speedtest.net and check your bandwidth numbers. You might possibly have a poor connection. You should reset your router twice a week also to keep it running smoothly.

Make sure your computer is updated and you have the latest flash player installed. Get AdBlock Plus for your browser so you don't get pesky commercials on videos online for Ustream and YouTube. Here is the link for that. https://adblockplus.org/

Make sure if you are watching on a mobile device to get the Ustream App and watch it there. Just search ontherail or billiards within the App.
 
The stream yesterday (I watched from the start until 6-2) was excellent for me. Thanks for bringing us this match. Really appreciated.
 
Picture quality is excellent. Personally I would rather PPV than commercials. Thanks for all you do Lenny
 
Thanks for the YouTube link. I'm able to adjust to a lower quality level and get rid of the jitters. My computer graphics processor is limited.
 
Stream looked great for the couple games I watched last night. Excellent quality, no lags.

Hi Lenny, I decided to watch youtube today, and it is great quality, yesterday's ustream was also. The stream is great in general, and the play is great too!

Two feedback points, that I give to all the streamers:

1. Don't use any fade at all when switching cameras. Make it an instant swtich. Its not fast enough for live sports action. No sport on real TV ever uses any fade, but all the pool streamers seem to:(

2. The camera switching in general seems random. Often you switch right in the middle of the player's stroke, when the new view does not offer any better viewing of the shot at hand.

Other times, the player is blocking the camera view, and you don't switch to another view.

Switching the view when the player is deciding what to do is nice, because we can see the layout from different angles (if that is necessary for the shot at hand). But once the player is committed to a shot, please maintain that view.

In short, less is more with camera switches. If the new view offers better information, do it. But if it does not, keep the original view.
 
I was watching via the ustream app and then threw it up on my samsung tv from my phone. It was excellent. Absolutely no issues.

I've been able to watch on my Roku through the youtube channel. I cannot figure out how to watch the ustream version on the Roku.

It was suggested that I needed to find the Nowhere Stream channel, but for some reason, just can't find it. I'v searched for Nowhere, etc...

Any tips for an oldtimer trying to find it :-)
