Hartford-Quebec Game Test Broadcast -Twitch Tonight at 7:00

[Glenn-Philadelphia]

OK boys, If all goes well I will be broadcasting game 2 of the Hartford-Quebec series tonight starting around 7:05 EST. The program is still a little rough around the edges but he basics are chiseled in and I would appreciate any feedback. My plan is to be live at the same time and I can respond to any questions or comments you have in the twitch feed. The link to the game is here:

There is a lot more that I want to do but I thought it would be valuable to get feedback on how the program performs in regards to screen refresh speed and the like.

I will also try to record this and make it available for viewing at a later time as well.

Thanks and I hope you can check it out,
Glenn

Hopefully the recording works as I have a previous engagement this evening which must take precedence over hockey for a few hours

[Glenn-Philadelphia]

No worries. I know the previous engagement has nothing to do with watching the Rangers in the conference finals....

[Glenn-Philadelphia]

For those that were unable to stop by for the test, the video is being uploaded right now to my Twitch channel for you to review. It should be done before too long. *EDIT_* I realized that the video had about 8 mins of lead in junk on it. I will try to clean this out before uploading.

Thanks for to Phil, Mike-Montreal, Scotty-NJ and Daner for stopping in to check it out and providing feedback. If there were other that didn't post thanks as well.

Please post any feedback or suggestions here.

I was driving home so I popped on for a second early in the game. From what I could tell it looks good and I'm excited to watch more!

[Scott-New York]

I don't see the replay, is this available yet?

[Glenn-Philadelphia]

I am going to re-record and upload it. For some reason you couldn't hear any of the game sounds. It should be back out there either later tonight or tomorrow AM.

[Glenn-Philadelphia]

Its re-uploading now. You will be able to find these by accessing the videos section once it finishes uploading here:

Even if you were on the original broadcast you may want to check this out for the sound that you may have missed earlier.

[Scott-New York]

Awesome, Glenn. It's very cool to see my imagination on the screen after all these years. This is very similar to what I imagined a game to look like, except all the information available on the screen makes the experience twice what I expected to see when I tuned in this AM. To track the stamina of each player on the bench and on the ice, watch the match-ups between players head to head on the screen adds a whole new element and it is top notch. Very good stuff. If anyone hasn't had the opportunity to view this, make time to catch at least a period or two.

[Glenn-Philadelphia]

Thanks Scotty.

I am going to be adding some of the improvements that the guys who were watching live last night suggested and will more likely than not broadcast the Alaska-Hamilton game tonight as Daner specifically requested it. I need to tinker with my settings so the game sounds are louder and any talking I am doing is not quite as loud.

[Glenn-Philadelphia]

If all goes as planned, the Alaska Hamilton game should be on at 7:05 EST tonight.

[Scott-New Jersey]

Did you make any changes?

[Glenn-Philadelphia]

Yes, I cleaned up the text and added some of the team tags as suggested.

Also, I think I figured out how to get the game sound better modulated

[Owen-Moncton]

I think you need intro music...

[Scott-New Jersey]

Don't tell him that.. He'll end up with a flash back and listening to 70s porn music..
