Freezing of a Webcast session after some period of time
Posted: Wed Jan 12, 2011 7:15 am
Brethren, please assist with finding of a source of the problem. I fluently searched through the forum items but didn’t find the answer.
I get the signal for webcast from a TV set outputs. There is a cable TV network installed in the building and it was easier to send the modulated RF video and audio for Webcast from 1st floor to the 2nd floor where the District clerk computer is located than to install the new video cable. For capturing of the signal I used PCI TV tuner card first but later replaced it with the external capture device due to incompatibility of the first. This onehttp://www.pinnaclesys.com/PublicSite/us/Products/Consumer+Products/Dazzle/Dazzle+Video+Archiving/Dazzle+DVD+Recorder+Plus.htm
During the first test it looked well but, unfortunately, when the real event has taken place the session has frozen after about 20 min. Since that I tried to restart the application many times, reboot the system, change setting but with no effect. System stops after uncertain period of time. At that the internet was working well. That my experience was with Webcast 2.0 version. Then we decided to upgrade it up to 3.0. We did it with required upgrading of Microsoft expression Encoder, Framework….But , unfortunately…… we have the same result. It looks like the time period before the stop a little bit extended. Now I have installed the software on my office computer and am testing the same device with the same software (with other camera). It looks better but still unstable. The process still interrupts but with different character . It sends messages like “ An error occured while streaming the webcast ……”
Dear experienced users, what may be the cause of this issue? I am sure that the capture device is OK. Today it worked more than 4 hours without interruptions. That means that it works properly. The cause is other but what?
Please help.
I noticed one more trouble on my “newly tested system” . When I change settings before the session start would it be on the main panel board or local settings for the external device I must restart the session from the beginning. I can’t after set up at once. The blank picture freezes and nothing can make it alive. Log out is also useless. Only restart the application.
I will appreciate any comment on this issue. Thanks in advance.
