Welcome
to Omnibits for Tuesday, 8 October (Day 1)
0700
It's looking
like a GREAT day for a skydiving competition! Almost all of the
setup got completed yesterday and we're now ready to get down to
business.
The holdout
setup task: We're going to use Boxcast streamers to send the live
judging pictures to my Youtube Live channel. Those streamers arrived
yesterday. One of them works, but the other two would not register on
the boxcast web site. I contacted their tech support and they were
surprised to learn -- as was I!!! -- that those two units were already
registered to another user.
They have to
fix that at their end, and until they do, I can only use one streamer.
Look for more details (URL etc) soon.

The good news:
All three broadcasters have been added to my account!
The bad news:
Boxcast is only allowing one broadcast at a time!!! Yes we're trying to
fix that.
The
broadcasting links are:
PLEASE NOTE:
Boxcast.com will only allow me to schedule 8 hour broadcasts. That
means these links will only be good until approximately 3PM Arizona
time, after which I have to create new broadcasts, so do expect a
disruption of the broadcasts midafternoon, followed (probably) by new
YT links.

4-Way VFS
Round 1 in progress and it looks like the live stream is working well.
Woo-hoo!
I don't know
what's going on with Artistic Events but will endeavor to find out
...
4-Way VFS is
finishing Round 1 and 8-Way now starting.

(The link from
"LIVE RESULTS" on https://www.fai.org/ipc-eloy2019
is b0rken as of 1130 this morning)
Oh and the
Artistic Events start tomorrow -- today is an official practice day for
AE.
Oh and we are
working on team
photos. A coupla glitches with that process but we hope to have them in
the loop this afternoon.
For those watching the live streams: I have the FS jumps replaying on
the
AE channel, as I had not known until just a few minutes ago that the
Artistic events start tomorrow, while today is official practice for
them.

8-Way now
complete through 3 rounds (and 2 points separating the top 3
teams!) and 2D 4-Way is on a short call!
