Topic: First Strike - Livestream.com Broadcast
For those interested in being part of the Livestream Broadcast, here are the details.
As mentioned in the Updates thread, I'm going to be trying this out and I need some help, specifically other players willing to contribute a Video Stream for the broadcast.
Pros:
- Doesn't affect performance too much (Probably similar to x-fire)
- Entire Broadcast can be recorded and played back on the channel
- Multiple player views
- Youtube Videos can be added easily
- Automated playing of content when not in use
Cons:
- Free version's quality not that great, but better than nothing
- Ads can get annoying sometimes
- Need to make an account at livestream.com
- There is a limit to the amount of content stored on the server
First of all, you will need to create an account with livestream.com here:
https://secure.livestream.com/myaccount/launchchannel
Next, download and install Procaster which will upload your stream to the network:
http://www.livestream.com/platform/procaster
Finally, PM me your Livestream username so I can add you to the production team.
* Edit: The in-game Procaster window tends to get in the way of some menus. You can minimize it by pressing CTRL+ALT+N
That's about it. I'll post more once we test this with a couple of streams. Until then you can see what it will look like:
Hope you can help.
