Just wondering what you all prefer?
As its kinda related to what im doing for CoD4 atm and trying to push our streams as much as possible. Someone is currently developing CoDTV but i think its going to hurt CoD4 more than help it.
Now with TosspoT streaming tonight

Do you prefer to watch the video stream or ETTV?
Side note, make sure you tune in tonight, the more viewers on a stream the better and i do mean it... chuck it in your xfire status, put it on twitter should be going live in like...30mins? Deserves a hell of alot of viewers.

however streams are good for non-ETplayers
Point being, big streams > big following > better commercial value > more interest etcetc.
So lets say in this game TosspoT somehow got 500 viewers, showed a couple of ads itd look good for ET to still say we can get this many viewers watching your adverts two times a hour etc...for x amount of dorra.
SOOOOOO
if CoDTV takes away lets say 30% of our viewers , we lose money and it hurts the sport in general as its value becomes less to sponsorship etc.
SIDE NOTE look how much someone like TSM Dyrus makes off streaming all day ;D the guy turns down lans because itd be against his financial interests to not stream for a whole weekend even if he won the event.
Sadly, none of the streamers atm (even tosspot) can offer that for ET.
But having the stream open for the shoutcast+watching ETTV yourself is how I would do it, considering I wanted to listen to a shoutcast :p
I would watch streams just for the support, or even have it open for the numbers.
But it really depends... sometimes I'm too lazy to turn up ET to just watch a match and usually I do other stuffs during that so stream is quite handy in that way. And ofcourse non-ET players can watch it. On other hand my internet is shitty and streams are always lagging for me :<. It has its pros and cons I suppose.
get that link spammed about, tweet it, put it in your xfire, facebook WHO KNOWS EVERYWHERE
But ETTV allows you to use better / prefered graphic settings.
why?
ETTV has ~30 sec delay
Tosspots Video Stream has ~1:30 delay
and the 60s delay is not a matter of opinion, its a fact :p
def connect(self, server, pass1, pass2, chainLeader = False):
if self.stype == 'tv':
self.protocol.setDelay(60)
Coz today ive watched ET stream with some friends they dont even know ET that much but they liked it coz of the quali+caster! :)
Thanks Toss!
