Now that I’m beginning to settle in to my routine back home in Florida, I’ve been working to get set up to relaunch the video broadcasts of “Open Air with Tom Remington”. As a matter of fact, today I attempted to do a trial run. This would allow me to get my settings where I want them and the necessary equipment in place and ready to go.

Ah, the best laid plans. After several minutes of fussing with this and messing with that, I thought I was set up well enough to do a live broadcast and record it. Then, instead of writing this blog, I would do a video presentation to let you know what was going on.

With a partially assembled new backdrop to the “studio”, I began streaming live audio and video and recording it. About five minutes into the broadcast, the video froze but it appeared the audio was still fine. I wasn’t sure if the recording was good and the live stream was bad or both, so I just kept on for about another 10 minutes.

Upon further review, the video ceased recording when it froze and shortly thereafter I lost contact with the server for the video streaming. Needless to say, that effort was squashed.

I tried several things and thought confident it wasn’t me and so I sent a help ticket to UStream.tv. I got a response back in a fairly timely manner saying they were having issues.(I wonder if it is because they are live-streaming the Democratic National Convention?)

I still can’t get to the site but wanted to give readers a heads-up that once I get these issues debugged, the show must go on. I hope to have at least a weekly show, if not more.

Lights! Camera! Action!
