**Exploding_Silver** · 09-14-2008, 02:30 PM

For the Viewers

Step 1: Goto xfire.com and download + install xfire + create account for yourself

Step 2: Join the TG xfire group, click here

Step 3: Send buddy invites to the 'Broadcasters'

Step 4: When a 'Broadcaster' is LIVE you can click on it

Step 5: Watch the game live !
> I say live, actually there is a 10 sec timelag
> the video is youtube quality
> the sound quality is good and you can hear all squad chatter SM + SL + teamspeak
> you can click comment on live video and the broadcaster can then see what you are saying

For the Broadcasters

Step 1: Click tools / options

Step 2: The options are self evident really

Step 3: Tune the settings and run a few experiments with a viewer giving feedback

> try tuning video setting, game menu audio settings, h/m/l broadcast quality
> I have to unmute my mic in windows, otherwise my ingame squad & xfire viewers cant hear my voice, this could just be my soundcard
> I find medium broadcast detail doesn't kill my machine too much
> Be aware, when broadcasting your mic is always open to the xfire viewers !

Step 4: Post in this thread as a broadcaster with your xfire ID

Step 5: Post in this thread when you are about to begin broadcasting !
> This is what you see top left when broadcasting and bottom right when people communicate with you

I disabled the Mic.

Otherwise I just set it up, and I'll give it a whirl in-game!

Lucky Shot showed this to me the other night, pretty cool. When I tried it I got horrible framerates

. Wish I had it running when I ran into Reader the other night

I have finished broadcasting for this evening
A TG first was achieved, I had an admin in my audience and i reported server rule breaking over the live stream and it worked, Bigeye took the report and took the admin action

Once again, Silver proves that awesome cake is a dish best served with awesome explodingness, while being filmed.

And to be quite frank, I do know it

EDIT

P.S. I'd love to see Lyra doing this...although we probably wouldn't be able to understand it, it would just be matrix code..."He is the one..."
