grandllama did us the greatest service last season. He put up some amazing Chiefs games streams. However, he can't this year because

I asked a few people and they said they would be willing to try to cover as much of the DT and streaming costs as possible.

.

We will try to cover as much as we can of the costs.
I would also like to add that we would like it to be only accessible to CP members with special credentials so that it does not hog up the uploader's internet connection.

Here's what grandllama had to say about this. Anyone can help with setting it up?

Right now I'm pretty much homeless.

I can setup the streams again, but somebody will have to feed the streams. Someone in KC with a video capture card and a Windows machine would be perfect and I can show them how to send it to my streaming servers.

Of course, somebody with ST and a windows machine with a video capture card would work too...

Basically you just upload the stream to my servers and they do all the work.

The games cost me about $20 each last year in bandwidth costs.

So, what do you think CP?

As for me, I am going to chip in 50 dollars.
kysirsoze is putting 20 dollars.
Pawnmower, 10 dollars.
Munkey, 10 dollars.
Loochy 20 dollars.
chief1okie not specified yet
Blazzin311 10 dollars
ElGringo, 20 dollars
lurker king, 25 dollars.

Can a mod please sticky this and make the poll public?

Agreed.

Yes I would be willing to help out as llama's streams were excellent last year, but only if this is set up in a more discreet manner.

Reerun_KC · 09-07-2011, 07:56 AM

I used to offer my slingbox to folks for football and basketball... Heck even offered it to MU fans on here for basketball...

But we moved out into the country now, I went from a cox 50mb down and 5mb up to 1mb up and down...

I dont think my stream will be that good anymore, so it probably wont offering that to folks... I will be willing to try it when the games start, just cant guarantee the quality anymore...

Ya, put this shit in Media Center where no one ever looks.

It means people probably don't want to go on a public message board that can be archived and come out and say "Yes, I want to break the law. Please tell me how I can take part."

Google doesn't care what subforum it's in. You don't think the league has people on its payroll whose only job is googling for illicit streams? If it's viewable to the public it can always be found eventually. I'm worried because the exchange of money would make it a target.

But I'll just give llama money because he's a nice guy and I feel bad about his house situation.

Is there a grand llama fund drive going on, to help him with his hard times? I'd be interested in that. In return someone can send a smoke signal to all interested parties with a password link to where to make the donations on a weekly basis.

I would also be willing to donate to a planeteer in need. Now this illegal streaming stuff, I don't even know what that means.
