ChampCar will be using 15 cameras at the races. But the more we have the better the show.

Ok, successfully streamed live in landscape mode.  Gonna have to test again later.

 

I submitted the form, but I couldn't get my "link" to match your format.

 

Hopefully you got what you need bill.

We had issues with ours doing landscape vs portrait, then had issues with the youtube app locking up...ended up not being able to stream because of it.

 

Whatever orientation you start the livestream with the app will lock into.   We discovered this during Friday practice.

We had issues with our "private" RaceCast clone that we are building. I went over to YouTube. The delay from me to YouTube to the broadcast was 15 seconds, which is huge when you are trying to work.
Our private server had a delay of just a second or two.

If there are any RTMP audio experts out there, I need some assistance to fix a pretty major issue we are having with my feeds

You going to be updating this for the 2nd half of the season?

I hope so. Trying to figure out the best way to reach teams without peppering them with an email blast, but maybe that is the best way to reach them for specific races. Along with the pit/garage assignments maybe we have a link to let us know where their livefeed is?

If it was effective the 1st half of the year then it should work the 2nd.    I don't think an email with an updated form will annoy anyone.    Also posting on social media never hurts.   More feeds = better broadcast obviously.

To a point, yes. It's a bandwidth issue. When everybody fires their rigs up Saturday morning all hell breaks loose with the cameras we set up and tested on Friday that worked perfectly well.

 

You would think that at Daytona, being surrounded by a large metro area, that it would be great for multiple incars, but alas 'tis not so. I think we had better availability at Nelson Ledges in the middle of nowhere, Ohio. 

We are still looking at options, but most everything we see is $$$$.

Agree.  Our feed worked well at Barber last year but there were only a few teams running cameras.  The number picked up at Road Atl and it seemed the quality got squeezed.  Daytona, much worse.  I guess there were so many cameras running along with the volume of people with their phones, etc using up bandwidth it just was too much to overcome. At NCM, the heat got us.  We must move where we mount the box with the power supply, Cerevo, and mifi or it will kill it every time.
