Live streaming games through the board

So I'm currently looking at making it possible to view a live stream of a game through the board and allow for a discussion of that game at the same time.  Stay tuned.

Ive actually given this concept a mini test run back in the Criterium Du Dauphine(Cycling Race) thread.

What I did was I would post the youtube link to a youtube user's feed of the live stream of the Dauphine on my Dauphine thread here on MWCBoard.

Initially it did fine, but after a while, the thread started locking up and began jamming up my computer so I would constantly have to restart my computer.

Overall results of my mini test run: "Mixed"

So what I'm working on is taking the live stream on YouTube or mwc digital network and embedding that into the site.  Then, you'd be able to watch those games on the site and chat with everybody at the same time. This would beat having 2 tabs open and not being able to mwcboard and watch the game simultaneously. 

Agree with Kalua.  That would be ridiculously nice.  It would obviously be only the games on the MWC digital platform and not the CBSSports and ESPN stuff.  Still, we all hate those games and this would make them relevant.

What my hope is to do is embed all game videos like this into the site and it will will stay "froze" at the top of your screen you'll be able to discuss the games below.

Nobody will pay to watch that.  You may have to pay people to watch it.

FYI - I unpinned the MWCDN changes and just linked it in this thread.

Thanks for the temporary pin.  Hopefully the regulars on the board are aware of it especially with Stadium broadcast games. 

Glad the MW continues to not prohibit embedding the games.

FYI:  Stadium is broadcasting UTSA vs Houston in Houston.   The Tribune TV stations are being setup for Stadium broadcast games from the Tribune stations they will be merging so this bodes well as the Tribunes stations will fill a lot of the gaps that Sinclair had within the MW footprint.

Hopefully I'll have the plugin for this within two weeks.  Just put a deposit down to get it done.  Thanks to everybody who has donated to this so far.

Great initiative, @mugtang!

We used to have a live chat interface on a dead Cowboys forum I used to post on, and it was THE SHIT!!!

So fu/cking fun to have the chat real time with the game!!

It would be similar to a chat. You'd still have to click the "view new posts" option but...the video itself won't refresh so you won't lose your spot or anything. At least that's the hope.
