Hey Everybody, I've got a pie in the sky question. My parental duties now proclude me from attending the Wednesday night WLUG meetings. Since we hold the meetings in the "Media room" is there any chance we could make them available live and/or a podcast? Thanks, Tim. -- I am leary of the allegiances of any politician who refers to their constituents as "consumers".

Access Grid software is open source. There is a Windows version and a Linux version (several distribution packages as well) available for download here: http://accessgrid.org/ The software normally requires an IP Multicast capable ISP, but there is a built in Unicast Bridge functionality which will convert the streams--just select "Use Unicast" from the virtual venue properties. I don't think this will work from behind a NAT, though, but you can try forwarding all the necessary ports (a lot of ports) or using a DMZ port on your router. If anyone would like to try this, feel free to contact me and I'll help you get set up.
Chuck, I would be interested in this. I noticed there's a couple different versions of the software. I'm assuming that I'd want the "unstable" beta? I'm using DSL, and my systems are behind a NAT so I'll interested to know what network changes need to be made for the unicast stuff to work. Thanks, Tim.

Nope - we're still using 2.4 on our room node, and there's currently no interopability between 2.4 and 3. -- Frank Sweetser fs at wpi.edu | For every problem, there is a solution that WPI Network Engineer | is simple, elegant, and wrong. - HL Mencken GPG fingerprint = 6174 1257 129E 0D21 D8D4 E8A3 8E39 29E3 E2E8 8CEC

DCLUG and BWBUG have been doing this using Icecast, Ogg Theora, and Ogg Vorbis. For details on their setup see http://dclug.tux.org/dclug_bytes2005.html#200506 'Course if you watch this way you miss out on the informal chatting, which is the best part of LUG meetings. --Andre __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
