PhreeZone 20 #1 August 2, 2003 Just droping a quick note to say the WFFC webcam is live right now. Feel free to watch people at manifest. The rest of the cameras will be coming online later today. Audio will be brought on line as soon as we can run the cable. WFFC is not sucking and DZ.com is REPRESENTING! We were the only tent that still had lights on and people moving (although not too well ) at 3:15 last night. Otters are flying hard, Casa's are taking lots of bigways, the Skyvan is cruising and Mullins has been going from 7am every morning. DC3 and the Beech 18 did a nice slow flyby the other night and they are manifesting for more C130 loads as I'm typing.Yesterday is history And tomorrow is a mystery Parachutemanuals.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BobB 0 #3 August 2, 2003 I'm doped up on NyQuil, so forgive me if this is a stupid question: Where are the webcam links? I'd like to see if Chuck and the rest of the Raeford gang are enjoying it. Yes, I know it is snowing. No, we are not putting the top up. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PhreeZone 20 #6 August 2, 2003 You will need Version 9 of Windows Media Player www.microsoft.com/windowsmediaYesterday is history And tomorrow is a mystery Parachutemanuals.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BobB 0 #7 August 2, 2003 Thanks for the link. It buffers, then downloads a codec...then says "Error downloading codec" I get the same error when trying to watch: http://www.freefall.com/images/webcam/videos/cajun_chickens/cajun_chickens_big.wmv But, the other videos on that page (http://www.freefall.com/other_video.htm) play fine. (note: xp pro, athlon 850, windows mp ver 8.00.blah.blah) Good old Micro$oft...maybe I should just boot into Slackware . Yes, I know it is snowing. No, we are not putting the top up.

PhreeZone 20 #8 August 2, 2003 Windows MP should be version 9.00.00 at a min. Install the newest version and try again. The CC video was encoded on the same encoder as the stream. Get one to work and the second one is going to work also. Oh boy...

PhreeZone 20 #21 August 3, 2003 Once the rain showers move on we have rotating webcams that will be showing the loading area, landing area and tent city. Should have looked earlier, all 3 were going.
