WINNIPEGTHEFT

We are trying to reduce the amount of times the Police Scanner is getting kicked OFFLINE.  It can go offline for many reasons, but we are trying to eliminate the ways that we can control.  Such reasons could be power outages, computer or software issues, malfunctioning router or modem, cable provider, or broadcast provider.  It is very hard to determine which factor is responsible when the we going OFFLINE intermittently.  The only way to absolute determine the problem is to systematically switch out each component.  Since we began broadcasting the video display, we have been kicked OFFLINE progressively faster it seems.  We can't seem to make it through even 1 week without going offline, and it is difficult to monitor 24/7.  We noticed that if we uploaded at a higher quality than 200 kbps it was creating many issues.  Well this made me very suspicious since we can upload 10 times that amount.  I suspect because Winnipegtheft is a "very heavy user" that Ustream is throttling the bandwidth to get broadcaster (Wpgtheft) to upgrade to $199 Producer Pro.  We are not absolutely sure this is the problem but we are currently broadcasting over 400 kbps with Dyyno with no issues yet.  Kreval still isn't absolutely convinced, so I am testing various feeds.  I find it really annoying that it is going OFFLINE so much,  I know are regulars are!  So I will be testing in the next week, and apologize for that annoying audio sample that was looping when I was testing Ustream Producer Pro. 

We will resolve this issue, Thank you for your patience.
