BBM thread

[BillionthUKFan]

Hi folks, I have put together a few live streaming links for Big Blue Madness. Note that there is an hour and a half pre-game show that airs locally, starting at 5:30 PM (ET). BWO will be streaming it, although his channel is in SD. You can also watch it on UK Athletic's website, and WACB will be trying to do a restream of the UK Athletics stream if you want to try his out. Once 7:00 PM hits, both BWO and WACB will be streaming the main event in HD.

I also plan on doing a "quick" 720p replay with the commercials in tact, which should be available about 5-10 minutes after BBM ends. I will be doing a commercial free replay as well, but it probably won't be ready until sometime on Saturday. There's not a radio broadcast for BBM, so there won't be a Leach & Pratt sync.

Friendly reminder... never download/install any plugins or software from any of the streaming sites. If it prompts you to do so, move on to the next link.

Great, sounds good buddy. Looking forward to it.

Great, sounds good buddy. Looking forward to it.

I'll probably do both a Full and Men's Portion Only version of the show via download... Do You think its possible to merge the SD and HD portions of the events without causing conflicts?

It should be possible, yes, but you will need to encode the pre-show at an upscaled resolution of 1280x720 to be able to merge/mux both videos together.

After looking at the video player UK Athletics is using, I believe I'll be able to do a 1:1 digital rip of their live stream at 720p. We'll see though, sometimes ripping live streams on the fly can get a bit tricky so I might run into some issues with it.

 

[BlueWorldOrder]

Thanks buddy, I may give it a shot combine it all together for a full show

 

[BillionthUKFan]

BUMP. 40 minutes to go until you get to hear Buzz Baker screaming at you for an hour and a half about heaven knows what!

 

[catdoug]

Thanks for the links.

@BillionthUKFan

Are you thinking maybe around 9:30ish you will have the 720 replay up? Assuming BBM goes til about 9ish?

Also, can you bump this thread when you do put it up? Please. As always, thanks so much.

The "quick" replay should be ready at about 9:05 - 9:10ish. There will be a new thread once it's ready.

 

[BlueWorldOrder]

I'll be starting my stream about 5:25.. letting this strange show go off before I start it

 

[Ky-troutbum]

Thanks BillionthUKFan and BlueWorldOrder, y'all are All Americans in my book!

 

[BlueWorldOrder]

Im Live Now two channels going

Thanks bud. Looks great!

Awesome. Won't be able to catch it live. Thanks again bud. You and BWO are the bees knees.

 

[BlueWorldOrder]

Thanks bud. Looks great!

Youre welcome! Thanks for the feedback! Will be interested in seeing the pre-show is all about.

 

[jrpross]

You da best Billionth!

 

[CatFanInIlliniLand]

This Out-of-State fan wants you to know I'm always thankful for your service.

 

[catillac32]

Thanks from North Dakota!

 

[Fawrules]

What time are the Men expected to be introduced? No disrespect to the ladies, of course. Just waiting for my father to get in, and I didn't want him to miss it.

 

[TBCat]

Dear lord please tell me these idiots aren't going to talk over the entire event. Someone needs to make it clear that this event is for the players to shine. It isn't for ESPN's commentators to talk.

 

[SaguaroCat]

Couple threads talking about it, but I feel like there should be one titled for it.

Good dance by Mitchell.

Big fan of that ivana girl on the women's team.

 

[SaguaroCat]

Figured they would turn on the lights for a scrimmage. The baskets are in the dark. You can see reflection of the video board on the court.

 

[crawfords corner]

I like watching the women's team play real games. This on the other hand could be held on a separate night. Not my cup of tea.

 

[Dakota25]

Will you all also live stream the first exhibition game and the NJIT game? I'm in Cincinnati so those are the two games I don't get.

 

[kentucky_wildcat_#1]

I agree. I can watch UK women hoops and actually enjoy it just fine if its a real game, but this, I really don't know what you would call this display going on. I guess I just don't enjoy women's basketball practice. It's not fun to watch. I didn't catch if all. Did our women look talented? I kind of gave up on it.

 

[Fawrules]

Still ludicrous of ESPN to not even include Murray in the rankings when he's ranked Top-15 by every other service.

 

[SaguaroCat]

I was actually enjoying the cheerleaders routine until they cut into it to show still pictures of players from south Carolina. Some of those guys were doing some impressive stuff.

I was just telling my wife they only do this so they can claim Duke has the top class. If you notice, Humphries is ranked and he reclassified after Murray.

I was as well. My daughter is a cheerleader and I was going to show her the whole routine. She is in a peewee league and they are getting to cheer at a local high school football game tonight. I wanted to show her the best cheerleading team in the country.

 

[Dreklie]

We give no f**ks about what your awful broadcasters have to say, I would much rather watch the half court shots.

Humphries played high school basketball in America. I think that's the issue. That is their rankings of high school Americans

This. I Freaking hate ESPN production.

 

[BlueRupp]

Announcers talking too much, IMO.

 

[YankeeCpt]

these announcers need to stfu

 

[NavyCatFan2012]

WILL THESE ANNOUNCES SHUT UP? I CANT HEAR ANYTHING. Thanks for ruining the experience SEC Network.

 

[FlCATFan]

Announcers talking too much, IMO.

Exactly! It would be infinitely more enjoyable if they'd just shut up.

 

[KY_Kid]

Didn't he play in the same program as Thon Maker? They rank him.

 

[SaguaroCat]

You are all correct. These fckers need to shut up. They are talking too much for a radio show, let let alone a telecast of a sports/entertainment event.

 

[Dreklie]

These broadcasters are just awful, not to mention the goober behind the broadcasters spitting into an Ale-8 bottle -.- smdh
