    Live Steam Week 8

    Something new for this week.. well not really new, but you'll need to download VLC media player because I am going to be using H.264 codec. Once you have my channel running in sopcast, simply open VLC, File>Open Network Stream, choose HTTP/HTTPS/FTP/MMS and beside it enter, 127.0.0.1:8902 and click OK.

    XS Sports, 482k
    Download Sopcast here

    *For Vista users, you might need to input this url at the top where it says address (in sopcast) if the channel doesn't open when you click the link above, sop://broker.sopcast.com:3912/48856

    *For Mac users, I'll post flash links for you guys, unless you know someone that will be watching the game on my channel and they have fast upload speed (2mpbs). They could give you their IP address and in vlc you would enter, their_ip_address:8902 *Just make sure they have port 8902 open in their firewall.

    And hopefully we have no power outages this week!! Go Bills!

    Thanks man. I got it to work late in the game and your Vista advice is what did the trick.

        H.264 is a better codec meaning improved quality.

          This is a dumb question. But can i still watch it through sopcast without downloading VLC media player?

          Thanks...

                sometimes you can. But you may have to download it.
                I've said it before and I'll say it again, I don't repeat myself.

                      It's sweeter.

                      If you've watched JJ's videos, you probably already have VLC anyway.

                        NO.. because you will only get sound and no video. Windows Media Player does not have an h.264 codec using asf encapsulation so you HAVE to use VLC!

                          Does this go on the air at a certain time? I'll let my dad know about it since he's in Arizona right now and won't be able to get the game, since his slingbox isn't hooked up right now.

                            Is there any way to test this so I know I have it working?
                            And will you be posting a sopcast link?
