justin.tv "was" pretty awesome for its beneficiaries.

However, its popularity and the increasing awareness of its existence in the mainstream have only made it unreliable but that was expected.

These websites like many others have a shelf life that once expired then it's time to look elsewhere due to copyright infringements.

DaveT has obviously done his research.

btw, ditto on the sopcast.

i thought it was pretty cool when i saw the site but you guys think its pretty much a dead site? is there any potential left for live streaming? following around Armin van Buuren or some weird shit like that?

A lot of gamers host games on that site, unreleased games, demos, walkthroughs, playthroughs, how to save princess peach etc.

The site definately has potential for a far bigger spectrum of potential spectators, but it needs more marketing and exposure to people. Because people seem to love broadcasting themselves, and a live video form definately has the dynamics needed to take off with proper financial and marketing backing.

Just look at people who have Myspace + Facebook + Twitter + Cell Phone + Internet Forums. Plenty of room for a live video site to take off if its made more accessible to more people. I think they should open up the chatrooms to guests who browse the site, with the admins or moderaters being able to ban people who are there to purely disrupt, while allowing new people who are browsing to use the chat feature, until they eventually like the site enough to join and be part of it. This would drive traffic through the roof, because you go there and you're like shit, cool streaming video, I want to chat but I dont want to sign up to this shit. If they let people chat as guests without signing up, they'd create far more accounts and repeat visitors, and subsequently grow faster.

Also, find and install "sopcast" because some thigns require that (it's a simple application for streaming video...uses windows media player in the ned) http://www.rajangan.net/ http://www.channelsurfing.net/ They update their schedules on gamedays and provide feeds of just about everything major in sports. Most of the time it links you to justin.tv, but sometimes sopcast or ustream. Also a few stations that just play movies on there.

Dave,

SOPcast is PC only yes ?

Yeah, but there's a Mac solution

read the comments as someone says to use mplayer instead of VLC and what to do...worked for a couple of my friends over the weekend.

Works on Linux so I would presume there are ways to get it to compile on Mac OS. If that doesn't work though, try using Crossover to run the Windows version.

Ah cool! I have used Crossover on Linux, and it works very well.
