If you’re here to watch the Paolo and Caroline Wedding you’ve come to the right place. The event of the year is finally here. The webcast will begin today at 3:45pm Hawaii Time. Stay tuned!
TECHNICAL NOTES REGARDING THE WEBCAST:
During the course of this evenings broadcast I’ll be switching between 2 different cameras depending on how i feel which camera captures the moment the best. I may do this several times tonight and when I do, you may notice your picture has frozen. Just expect the webcast to be down 1 or 2 minutes and either wait for the page to automatically update itself or hit the refresh button after a couple of minutes.
Also, I’m trying to work out the fact that the hotel does not have wireless high-speed internet access that can reach the beach. I have put a request in with the wedding coordinator to see if they could boost their signal, but I’m not too optimistic about it ever happening. In the meantime, Paolo’s cousin/groomsman, Sherwin, has saved the broadcast by installing MS active sync into my computer so I will be able to broadcast using his phone’s 3G network. It’s not as fast as DSL or even EVDO, but at least I will be able to get the webcast out and over to you. Should I end up having to use this method, I will also re-broadcast the wedding with footage shot with my mini-DV cam on a date to be announced this Monday.
UPDATE:
As of 10:45am Hawaii time, I might be able to use the EVDO from Louie’s phone. Hoping it works the same as an EVDO air card. I won’t know for sure until close to airtime.
