From Real Networks
“CBS is increasing the quality of the image and sound for the entire show, from the live feeds and CBS broadcast to After Dark. As long as you have enough bandwidth you should see a noticeable increase on your home computer. This high level of realtime compression can only be achieved using Reals Helix system, Microsoft Media Services, Adobes flash streaming and Apples QuickTime solutions.” From Real Networks
“We will be rolling out our new HD capable Helix streaming servers early next year and what better way to showcase and test our premiere product than on the Big Brother Feeds.” Some feature we will employing using Reals new helix servers
- Unicast broadcasting to external audiences
- Archiving broadcasts
- multi bit rate real time encoding
- Time shifting
- multi camera real-time viewing”
Real networks is offering time-shifting on the Big Brother feeds, what does that mean?
Real captures the live feeds onto their main server straight from the 4 cameras supplied by CBS, these 4 streams are pushed off to Reals edge servers located throughout the continent of North America. From these edge servers the video is uni-casted to your home computer at a bit rate based on your download throughput. When real wants to stream the stored feeds to you each one of these edge servers will have archived the big brother 10 and big brother 11 feeds in their entirety. Their solution is to give you access to a given slot of time where you have free movement forwards and backwards with the option to pause your stream. No data will be stored on your home computer if you request a one hour time slot and want to start 23 minutes the stream will start 23 minutes in, than if you find out some house guest said something crazy 13 minutes in than you can rewind to that point and the stream will begin again. Each individual stream will be delivered to home computers using a variable bit rate
From Real Networks
“The live feed client has also been given an overhaul, We have noticed a sharp increase in broadband usage so are able to stream out all four cammera views in a thumbnail format. This way you see what’s going on all 4 cameras and can pick which on you would like to view in full resolution.”
:wohoo: :wohoo:

I'm waiting for the free trial to get a head start Rob because I need to reinstall McAfee on my laptop, I hope its still included for free in the BB package dealio.

:hearts: So when we miss something, we can sorta rewind so we can see it after work or the next morning. More screencaps, more photochops, more laughs. I can't wait. :partie:
Not having to change camera views to see what is going on, on another camera, :party: Lots and lots of wasted time saved.
With the new feature of being able to playback a specific hour, we (me) :-[ wont have to ask so many questions when I miss something. Yeah I will be able to go back and see it. :wohoo:

Do people get the feeds at different rates of speed depending on their computer speed?? ???
This could play hell with the updaters, if dial ups are behind the dsl-ers. :groan:

I don't know exactly what they are saying. But somehow I just wonder if it will all work as advertised. :lol: I can remember other glitches we've encountered... ???
-
glitches e not the word omg, the frizing getting the boot for no reason i just hope they get a lot more stuff on there end to support all this new stuff. i have had feeds sence bb3 and they were great, and i was on dial up at the time, real has gone down hill drastickliy every year. jmo i never bout the reloader but every one says it is great. i was all ways so (:;) (:;) i did not want to spend another dime on it.also i rember real being like 20 dollars for the whole bb season?? the quility got worse and the price went up. :groan: :jam: please let real be fablous this year..

It's official. I'm going to out for a while. I won't be with you for at least the first month of BB.
-
ok sry i ment to ay i have not bought the reloader thingy yet. so what i said might make sence now omg, i was on heavy meds last week.. and i can't sp on my good days sry :kuss:
-
:waves: If anyone is interested, when you buy the BB R e l o a d e r , you get the bar feed option with all four feeds just as in Realplayer.
So if you are used to the r e l o a d e r for screencaps, you can also have the improvement of the bar feed. :yess: For the rewind video, you will have to use Realplayer.

RP just had me upgrade to a Beta version...was that right to do? ???

I've been using it for a couple of days now and it seems to be running fine and looks a lot sleeker.
-

-
the beta version has captions! hmmmm wouldn't it be exciting if BB had captions!! ....one could only wish.

Ugot that works, but how to screen cap?
-
I couldn't even make it stay on top so I could see the forum....
Back to re---loader for me! Easy screencaps,, can keep each feed on top, or all of them if I want!
Now...just need a computer that works.... :groan:
-
Ugot that works, but how to screen cap?
Queeny: There are some freeware programs that will do screen captures. Gadwin is one that I tried.
I'm thinking that I might just use our other old faithful program, Re...........Loader.

I was going to give this a shot- others do it. If I can't figure it out by later- I'll get old faithful for sure.

i am having trouble with it all ready... huuuuu it takes for ever to switch cam's ans 2 windows for the chat. not loveing real this yr.jmo :meow:
-
had maj0ors issue all day with realplayer so i'm thinking it's them not us.. i updated the codecs found under tools then updates.
then pasted the URL posted above in real player.. and everything seems ok for now. however i'm still using re--- loader.. it's fast and simple except when the webpage hangs up on a pic post.
see support for added info on this!! we got to work together or we'll all be frustrated!!
