Reminder: Streaming @ 6:30 PM Eastern! (also, behind-the-scenes of the stream @ Kristen's house)

Don't forget, or Billion Points Stream starts at 6:30pm Eastern tonight!

The rest of the video shows how I set up to both stream and record, for the six people out there who care to see how it's done or just find my strange voice/accent fascinating and want to listen to me talk for five minutes straight.

Both of my video grabbers are Dazzles -- the PC one is old, a DVC 50, and the other is the Dazzle for Mac. If you have any questions about how this stuff works, I'm glad to answer.

well i had camtwist streaming the little box in the dazzle program

[woozerkristen2]

@mortifidpenguin Yep, that's what I mean. For us, that didn't work because, although I could run audio in directly from my PS3, it was incredibly out of sync with the video -- I have a huge lag between the preview I see on my screen and what is going on in my actual gameplay. I've also run the audio directly in to the stream like that and used the webcam on my Mac for video. Similar quality to the camtwist method but mostly synced audio.

Ya like right now its not opening in fmle and i have no clue what other programs will work the only solution i found was using camtwist and it look like shit

[woozerkristen2]

@mortifidpenguin I couldn't even get camtwist to recognize it. I literally spent hours and hours trying to find a solution and trying suggestions I found online and ideas I came up with myself. Depending on what you are wanting to stream, the closest solution I found (which came from bandmate Sixen) was using the ability in camtwist to show what's on my screen and zooming in to the preview of what the Dazzle was recording. However, if you want synced audio, this is not a solution.

[mortifidpenguin]

is it possible to stream from the mac with that capture card

[woozerkristen2]

@mortifidpenguin From what I am understanding, some Mac OS versions have no problem streaming with that Dazzle, but others can't do it, and I have one the latter versions. For streaming now, I have a newer Dazzle than the one in this video for my old PC laptop (only thing I use it for).
