[JohnnyBB]

"The Live feed is not going anywhere, the website feed alone is getting on average 20,000 hits a night"

[Ramsay]

well there you go then

Hey, if he's happy that's all that matters :) Maybe with those figures they'll consider doing the 24 hour with a charge thing?

[CaudleHalbard]

Good news all round it seems, with the ratings and LF hits. :)

20k seems lousy to me, but hey what do I know?

I tried to get it last night but it came up as not available and to refer to my setting. You know the page that comes up when it says cannot connect to the internet ect. I got ythe page open but when I clicked on the link the middle of the window went cant display. Has anyone else had that.

Yeah the site was down for most of yesterday and the Live Feed wasn't on as a result. Apparently they all went to bed at like 1 so we didn't miss much.

It's not all that reliable. Certainly not enough for charging to be considered.

20k is not bad. It's only hardcore enthusiasts who will stay up until 2am watching..... after watching 2 hrs of HLs + BOTS.

Agree, the site will have to be hugely improved before a charge can be implemented.

The point with charging for it is that they can then afford to pay someone more educated than a first year intern to run the server. The feed itself is generally stable - people who connect through VLC never have issues except when the whole feed is taken down. The tech issues are on the C5 website itself.

notice he says 'the website feed alone'... it just proves he's happy with the knock-on affect of that happening. Increased media coverage, buzz etc.

[Gusto Brunt]

So let's have the 24 hour live feed then.
