Pool Streams. Help US Understand them

I remember the keynote speaker at a trade show in San Diego in the 1990s (TCU ? ITU ? Some TLA anyway .....), the network manager at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory iirc, saying that he would never put real-time data on an non-deterministic packet network (Ethernet). The issues are various and complex and have often caused me headaches over the years.

Are you incapable of having a conversation or debate without resorting to this kind of immature response? You simply can't fathom admitting you were wrong.

I think he has clearly displayed his answer to this.

Hell, he has dragged my name into this many times when I gave one response concerning the topic and thanked him for correcting me as he was clearly more knowledgeable in it. Though I did point out that he has a bad attitude, not that I needed to as he continues to display this on his own. I never once said another thing concerning streaming and yet he continues to use me as a scapegoat for his immaturity.

I hate dealing with know it alls. You two seem to have the answer to everything.

Bad attitude?

Perhaps you should review the entire thread and then come back and correct your statement. That is of course, if you are able to check that attitude of yours and be man enough to actually admit when you are wrong.
 
That's not even relevant any more...

The single biggest hindrance offsite is going to be that they are limited to that venue's UPLOAD capacity which these guys have little, if any control, over.

If they are going to be sending out at 1000kbps then they are going to need about a mb of upload for every person that connects + whatever the venue typically uses on it's own. That stuff comes at a price and I would venture to guess most Pool Halls don't have that kind of connection/capabilities.

With carriers like Ustream, you only have to support your stream from the location to their servers, they handle all the bandwidth to the end user.

You forgot to mention that you called him a dick. That might have something to do with the tone of his later responses.

Well Dave, if you are going to throw yourself into this then I suggest you do a little review of this so you don't look so stupid injecting yourself without full knowledge.

Below is his response to a post of mine which started the entire thing:

You should really just stop talking. Seriously. I don't know where to start, with regards to pointing out the errors in your statements above.

I posted something that was wrong and instead being mature and ignoring it and/or just posting the correct information he was a DICK about it - "You should really just stop talking". So yes I did call him out on being a dick, as many of his responses here clearly show is a pretty damn accurate statement.

So lefty, bow out as I am being my work here is done.

Actually, a TV channel has BROADCAST capability. And they don't broadcast from the truck to the TV station. It's a point to point narrowcast, or unicast. So, THAT was your point, right?

Well my thought process when I initially thought of it was like a LAN between a company's 2 buildings that do not have a physical wire connection but instead have some kind of wireless connection.That is not used so much so I then thought of the news truck or the ESPN truck. I do not know of their actual capabilities and if you are saying they broadcast to all consumers from those trucks, I was unaware they had that ability to do such. I was under the assumption they sent it to their studios and the studios broadcasted it out.

At my company we have a couple studios throughout the country and then every office has a video device (caching) that sits there and when someone wants to watch a live broadcast they automatically connect to their local device. IF they do something remote for the event it still gets feed to the main studio for distribution out to the local devices. With this capability we are able to have high quality live broadcast with many thousands of people (I believe 13k was the most we had at once thus far).

And yet, despite being wrong with nearly every post, you're still talking. Face palm.

Seriously? I posted on the topic, what twice before you even made your first post to me with your second being the dickish one that started this?

Be a man, admit that your ego is too big for you to step back and realize that yes, my call on you was correct.
