How to watch Weber's Wildcats on the east coast?

[Hurricane Cat]

Links working fine. I'm catching up on Georgia football with Mark Richt right now. 

Thanks jmart

It works, but isn't very effective with streaming video as it is delayed and tends to struggle at times by pausing then catching up.  The video stream is excellent on my computer. I am currently researching other ways people online suggest casting video.

I'd be interested in your results. TIA

Unfortunately everything I am finding helps to stream all sorts of media content to chromecast, but I haven't been able to find out how to cast the media playing in the VLC.

anyone else having issues with the video stalling?

A little, you might need to downgrade your quality with a different link.

[geesiskryst]

already downgraded to the 1264 link.

Just ran speedtest and I'm running at 30Mbps. Not the greatest, but should be able to handle that resolution I would think.

Thanks... I kinda figured. It's no good for tonight I realize, but one thing to consider if you're going to be streaming video in the future is to buy the right video card for your PC.
3 factors to consider.
1, It needs to have multiple video outs, with one being the type you can connect to your TV. If your TV has HDMI the that's best.
2, it has to fit into a PCI , PCI Express 16X, etc slot. You'll need to look inside the PC to be sure, and it needs to be compatible with your OS. PCI Express usually gives best results.
3, It will have to have enough Video RAM. For HDMI 512 or higher. For S-video 256 or higher.

I've seen really good cards on Ebay for as low as 20 bucks, so it's very affordable. I suggest a little research is quite valuable before a purchase, but it's really straight forward for the most part. I've done it many times for myself and friends with no issues. Good Luck!

If you're using a PC with windows, you can try increasing the CPU priority in Task Manager.

Right click a blank spot in your taskbar. Select Task Manager > processes.
Right click VLC and increase priority to "Above Normal".
Don't go any higher.

Have the latest VLC? I'm not that good with iOS so not sure how to increase CPU priority with MACs, etc.

For me the video will play for a minute or so and then the video freezes and the audio keeps repeating, like 20 seconds worth, ad nasuem. Very weird and frustrating problem that I didn't have the other day when this stream worked perfectly for me. I tried restarting the stream, then I tried stepping down to a lower res stream, but with the same results each time. Any ideas?

[pissclams]

i meant osx but ya latest vlc.  don't sweat it, think my connection is screwy

[Yard Dog]

minus a couple hiccups I have a great stream on my mac and it's ancient! haha

Dump your cache and cookies and retry. I'm checking it to see if I have the same issue. brb

Thanks jmarks. Feel bad that you're running IT when you should be watching the game.

I'm using VLC, not the VLC plugin, do browser cache and cookies still have some effect? If so, which ones, I switch between FF, Chrome, IE and Opera according to whim.

It's all good... Really happy to help out great fans like y'all.
I'm watching on regular TV or was. just wish the Cats were kicking their ass! C'mon Boys!!!

I checked the stream with different bitrates and all seem to working great for me. Let them each go a couple of minutes with no issues
