gotta say i agree with sweets though. Outsider is just being a smartass.
And thing is i also hate them so called "tv stations". i just think if they
put as much (well, maybe alittle more) effort into proper video streaming,
then they could get something so much better.

[View Quote] The problem is, it's the same principle. Video, in any form, is still a
collection of still images.

If you feel that you can afford to host a streaming media server for us and
buy all the equipment and build the sets for us to make a quality
production, then feel free to start your own, not to mention world hosting
fees. None of us have that kind of money to throw around. Otherwise, as
they say in all of the video production websites that I hang out at, "Do it
yourself and then we'll be impressed. Theory will get you nowhere if you
don't apply it. And nobody will apply it for you."

Blah, you only regret posting stuff after you've posted it. E N Z O - Give

As far as streaming video etc is concerned, I'm working on a way to get some
decent shows done on streaming video, you can see one of my sets here:
AWTeen 2199S 1065W 2A

This show is also run every Monday as part of the AWTeen Events program.
(note: cancelled from 16th May to 30th May)

The future is here....with FFTV.

Why do you use the word "sweet" in your name? I'm just curious :)

well in that case, we could just have a bot change the colour of an object,
and say we're streaming it pixel by pixel? hey, that's the same principle
too...
ya, it may be the same principle, but it's not the same thing, it's
different, totally different.
Don't argue just for the sake of proving someone else wrong.

choosing sweets as a name.

yeah and you word things so much more diplomatically, Strike. Basic 3 words
that totally stuck to the subject matter at hand 'deal with it". You see
rather than slam me, Strike gave advice. Could learn maybe a bit about truth
and diplomacy from Strike LMAO

you see I can take advice, disagreement, debates, even insults....but what I
cannot stand is someone butting in to a conversation just to tell me I am
not nice, or sweet, that I shouldn't disagree, that I should not post unless
I am in total agreement with the 'community'....I am Canadian not Communist
and we are known for our big mouths and saying what we feel....sorry if that
offends anyone but I am not changing my ways for any 'community' Vr or
Real.....
I had something to say. I said it. And from words of a wise man 'DEAL WITH
IT'

[View Quote] No it's not totally different. Changing the color of an object isn't
streaming anything. Unless, of course, you're actually determining the
pixels of each.

A motion _picture_ is still a collection of frames. Frames are
pictures, therefore they are the same. I guess you could throw this
under a polymorphism debate. A motion picture is a motion picture, but
it's also a collection of individual pictures. You can express it as
both and be technically correct.

Take a frame of a video, that's a picture is it not? Move to the next,
still a picture isn't it? Now if you were to assemble the frames into a
different layout, what would it be? A collection. Huzzah for semantics.

There is a "cancel message" option after you have posted. Right click
your posted message and click "cancel" and it will delete it. You
just have to do it quickly after you have posted, otherwise those who
load your post will still see a blank post (similar to that when AWI
deletes a post in the ng) when you cancel it.

yes, and take the a bunch of pixels, stick them together, and you have a
picture. hell, everything is built of smaller things, but that arguement
doesn't really hold, its not a reason not to have streaming video. proper
streaming video,
Hell, if you were to get technical, the pictures don't even have to change,
and they'd still be TV, after all, television is just pictures coming from
far away, nothing in it's name indications change, or animation.

*shrug* that's why it's a community newsgroup.. people are going to
post their opinions on your debates/complaints/topics whether you like
it or not. I never stated that you should like or be in full agreement
with those that post in the ng's... and that first post of mine was just
me kidding around.. hence the ":P" You are going to get people who
are going to debate your debates / complaints, like Outsider did,
whether it be sarcastic or not, and those who make joking comments or
sarcastic comments in the ngs.. if you can't "deal with it," then
don't read them ;)

Hi everyone:

[View Quote] >I'm looking for some urls to some active television stations. Assuming
>there are any, of course. :) I need four of them, and if you guys know of
>any, please post their urls here. Thanks!

Chris, when you log on next time, hop on ver to the Corporate
Headquarters of Virtual Cable Inc. at 4900N 820E (on AW of course) and
go up to the middle floor. You should a few more networks that way.

That said though....In light of posts by others, I can see that I'll
kost likely be on myself updating corporate HQ as the cable dial
obviously nneds to be expanded to include all the new networks, so
it's quite possible we could wind up crossing paths tonight Chris :).
Though the cable expansion will be done once Channel 5 is brought back
on the air and FBSTV is quite possibly moved off Channel 8 and
shuffled onto cable (Been wanting to do that for months given the
network's ties to AAWR and UETV being on Channel 4).

In fact, while you're at it Chris, feel free to build a Virtual Cable
Inc. office somewhere in SW City. Anyone with a town can do so.
Doesn't really matter what you use to build it with as I'm not that
particular, though it should have an area (ideally an entire floor)
dedicated for the virtual call center (but this isn't required if you
don't want it). :-)

Highflier, you may want to plant yourself in front of a picture object
sometime tonight and review your list for currency and accuracy. I
say this because ABN is dead as is (sadly and ironically enough) VWTV.
There's probably a few others on your list that are dead too.

Anyhow....Cheers for now everyone :)

You are confusing VIRTUAL REALITY with REAL LIFE. In a VR
environment, TV isn't *supposed* to "move". That's the nature of the
environment.

Heck, even in the rest of cyberspace, you can't get true PROFESSIONAL
BROADCAST quality TV on the Internet (unless you know of some websites
no one else does). The best that can be done is STREAMING MEDIA (and
even THAT can sometimes be challenging if combined with a VR
environment).

ActiveWorlds has only had truly integrated streaming media support and
functionality for only a year (if even that long). And given the fact
that it relies almost solely on a Windows environment, it should be a
no-brainer as to why they chose Windows Media over proprietary
RealMedia and other formats such as NSV and OGG Theora which are Open
Source.

Hope this helps in better explaining things :)

Cheers for now :)
