LiveStreaming QUESTION

14 years ago General

So I found a new service I could do streams on. It has amazing picture quality, and you can zoom in on the pic, or give over control of the mouse to others or whathaveyou.

But there's no sound.

I love chatting with you guys, but would you rather sacrifice sound for image quality? Vote!

Chatting can be important, but it's not necessary.

We talking join.me?

Yup. I saw Skech on it and was like WHOA.

Only note on it is a fairly small one - you'll note that it's not as smooth on the animation if you do large screen changes like zooming in and out! However, it more than makes up for it in quite a bit of platform and "limited speed" support - I've tuned in quite well on a crappy 1xRTT connection I can barely pull on my tablet while at work.

I know of the service youare talking about. there is a chat window in there. took me a moment to find it.

Yeah, the trick to it is that most artists are used to voice chatting with people, which is its biggest downfall.

Okay. I know Teekay uses this one and I can't remember if there was audio or not.

The "audio" is literally a conference call. It's more of a meeting site than a streaming site.

i think the social chat w/voice is more important than slightly better image quality. but thats just my opinion.

Voice chat keeps you working without keyboard delays. That's a plus.

The nice thing about text chat is if you miss something you can look back, compared to voice chat. You could do a sort of public Skype/Ventrilo/TeamSpeak/etc chat to add sound if you want, I guess.

I the visual quality of join.me, nothing else comes close, but so many artists end up getting annoyed with the audio issues so even Falvie (one of the biggest proponents of join.me I know of) ended up on LS instead. :/
