Alrighty, Here's the info on how to get into the webcast on Saturday night: You'll need to install MSN Messenger (free download) - it can be found here: webmessenger.msn.com/default.aspx?R=1The download link is on the right hand side of the page. It's available for PC & MAC You'll also need a Microsoft .NET Passport. If you have a hotmail.com or msn.com account, you already have a Passport. Details of how to get one can be found right here: accountservices.passport.net/ppnetworkhome.srf?vv=600&lc=2057Again, it's free. Once you have a passport address, please send them to me via PM - this is essential, as I have to add you to my list of contacts BEFORE Saturday. On the night, you'll have to log-in (I'll confirm times later this week). I should be able to see you in my live contacts list, and I'll invite you into the video broadcast. It will pop up as a window in MSN Messenger, with audio (if you have speakers on your computer!) My Passport user name is Zen - and if you need to add me as a contact , the email address is: sahbstock@hotmail.co.uk According to the MSN site, you do not need to have a webcam connected at your end - but if you have one, hook them up and we'll wave at you. ;D Please note - the success of this depends on the reliability of the web connection at the Admiral, so we're winging it on the night a little! It's always a bit chancey with these things, but if the wind is in the right direction, hopefully you'll be able to see something worthwhile! Cheers! |

Aye, I'm just praying that it all holds together on the night! Still, if all else fails, we WILL have plenty of video footage to fall back on - and a good amount of that might just end up on YouTube for people to see too  |

Well, the feeback for the webcast has been great! But - we still have the big unknown of the Admiral web connection! If the webcast *is* unsuccessful, I already have the email addys of those who have asked for access - and I'll happily send out some DVD's of the uncut footage from the DV cams on site within a few days of the gig - basically, I can just dump the AVI files onto disks and send them rough and ready - people will be able to watch them with Windows Media Player. So we have a backup plan Please note - this wouldn't be all pristine and shiny (well, the disk would be ) - but at least people would be able to see what happens, without waiting for the proper DVD. |
