Garchen Institute live-stream problems

Post by Lhasa »

The Garchen Institute has problems with their live-streaming and below is a note from the director, Trisha. Anyone have any ideas on other ways to stream, how to help out? :thanks:


"We've had problems all day with our streaming. It is the frustration of our location that our signal goes in and out, some days very strong and some days very weak. In addition, free users of Ustream are prioritized at the bottom of their list for bandwidth, so when Ustream has a lot of free users, the service really degrades.

We looked into paying for streaming, but it would cost several thousand of dollars for each event, and we regretfully do not have the financial means to do this....the signal strength is due to our remote location. We are at the edge of the broadcast area for our hotspot, and it is the best available to us. We would love to know how Ustream decides to degrade service or not."
