Is working great Bonnie and will be a real bonus that people can go and see older ones on Youtube! Welldone for all they work sorting it :-)
ReplyDeleteYou showed up crisp and the sound is clear. Hope this works out! Do so love Quilt cam!
ReplyDeleteYAY!!!! IT WORKED!!!
ReplyDeleteHooray! Have a good night's rest!
DeleteIt works!
ReplyDeleteIt works!
ReplyDeleteAND it can be played later!! WHoowhooooo!
ReplyDeleteLooks great Bonnie!! I was hoping this would be a good solution for you. Getting them recorded for free is awesome too! Hope the next broadcast works well too.
ReplyDeleteLooks and sounds fantastic!!!
ReplyDeletelooks good to me too! YAY!
ReplyDeleteLooks nice and crisp Bonnie,
ReplyDeleteand it will be GREAT if it is saved on Youtube, so those of us on different time zones can catch it when it suits us.
A good move, I'd say. Google stuff is often great- and free!
Wow ! that was great, will be so nice to not miss out on Quiltcam because of work etc.
ReplyDeleteSound great and picture slightly blurred but that's not a problem really. So much better than tonight's experience.
ReplyDeleteEven though you were a little blurry from your trip last week, I still enjoyed quiltcam. This one seems to be coming in good and I can replay for later, yeah!!!
ReplyDelete15 minutes after you recorded, Im seeing it, on your website....Awesome! This might do the trick! Good luck!
ReplyDeleteWonder if it will be "live time" when you record and share the link? I really like watching you at the same time you are on camera :)
Robin
I love that it can be played later....I may never have to miss Quiltcam again...whoo hoo!!!
ReplyDeleteGreat picture and clear sound! Love, love, love that it will record quiltcam! I really hope this works better for you than ustream since it even gets rid of the ads!
ReplyDeletetwo thumbs up Bonnie!
ReplyDeleteIt's great, clear as can be. It just may be your answer. Gale/OK
ReplyDeleteIt works! I think you have solved the problem.
ReplyDeleteworking great in New Brunswick Canada
ReplyDeleteI can see it and it's 11:20 EST 8:20 PST
ReplyDeleteI'm sure you were tucked in bed by the time I viewed this. Worked great!!
ReplyDeleteworks in google but not IE--surprise surprise...NOT
ReplyDeleteThank you Bonnie this came through perfect. Viewed it from your web page.
ReplyDeleteDon't know how it will work live, but it is crystal clear at 11:24 eastern from YouTube. You ROCK Bonnie Hunter !!!!
ReplyDeleteJust a FYI, watched on my iPad from the imbedded link on your site. Thanks again, Deb
DeleteIt's working and even replaying after you've gone away. Good for you!
ReplyDeleteIT works :)
ReplyDeletePopped in at 11:35 ish Eastern and apparently saw the replay.
ReplyDeleteIt worked for me Bonnie, Good seeing you again :) Take Care, Bj in Arizona from the Prescott Class :)
ReplyDeleteReplay at 11:45 was great. See you on Friday.
ReplyDeleteALL THE WAY TO BRISBANE! YEAH!
ReplyDeleteWorked great! I replayed it at 10PM Mountain time.
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like the perfect solution!! See you Friday.
ReplyDeleteI just watched it at 9:07 pm, in California. Might be the answer.
ReplyDeletethis is great! i missed quilt cam as i was at work but i came home and voila! there is bonnie, recorded previously.....a fantastic idea...better than sliced bread i'd say....
ReplyDeleteLooks like you got it. :)
ReplyDeleteAh Bonnie, what a happy surprise to come home to find your tape, I do hope that this works out for you. I was sorry to have missed your quiltcam tonight as my sil and I went out to an Irish performance, so I was doubly happy to see you now. Looking forward to Friday night.
ReplyDeleteYay it worked very well, I look forward t0 being able to see you on QuiltCam again and watching episodes that I could watch live. Thanks Bonnie you are amazing!!
ReplyDeleteNice, clear picture ---but the audio was out of sync w/pic. Wonder if others had the problem??? Hope this works out for you. It is fun watching your show.
ReplyDeleteI had to leave for quilt guild and missed seeing most of the Quilt Cam. Showed off my Easy "BUSY" Street and got to Brag that I'll be seeing you next week! So FUN I can hardly wait!
ReplyDeleteThis will be amazing!!! Love all you do for us....you.'re the best!
ReplyDeleteI lov
ReplyDeleteJane the new hangout. Was great on my kindle. I love the fact you can go back to the video also.
Jan
Fantastic!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteStill working fine at 12:30 AM
ReplyDeleteChecking in at 9:33 pm PST and that is great. I seldom get to watch Quiltcam so love that we can watch later. It was very clear.
ReplyDeleteThanks for all you do.
Sooo Cool!! Now if we miss you, we can catch up later. Thank you so much for all you do for us. We do appreciate it so much.
ReplyDeleteI missed Quilt-Cam tonight as I have been under the weather the last couple of days and was asleep when you came on tonight. Imagine my surprise when I was treated with a very nice and clear recording of you testing out Google+ where I normally found nothing! I'm sorry Quilt-Cam itself didn't go well tonight, but VERY happy you have found a workable solution. We'll have an added bonus of being able to see Quilt-Cam after work (or after we wake up) instead of completely missing it. You really ROCK!!! Thanks for all you do for us Bonnie! We really appreciate it! Sleep well. :-)
ReplyDeleteOn your blog the picture is blurry for me and the sound is not with your lips. On You Tube the picture is a bit better. A couple of times you moved closer to the camera and it was closer to being in focus. The same thing happened on webcam when you moved the camera. Things up close were very clear. The sound on You Tube matches your lips as long as you aren't moving, which seems to cause memory overload. Viewing directly from UStream wasn't too bad for me. Some of the same problems as above, but not bad. Might I suggest trying to use some sort of light to brighten the area being recorded to see if that helps the picture quality? Maybe the computer would not need to process so much information to try to brighten the picture and keep it in focus at the same time. Only a guess. The camera I use for Skype is an external camera with LED lighting. The subject is relatively close and is always in focus with proper sound timing. Just a simple suggestion to try.
ReplyDeleteIt's perfect Bonnie - well done!!!
ReplyDeleteBonnie, It is 1 a.m. on Wed. morning and I am checking my emails and some of the blogs I follow. Your's is one of my favorites and there you were, saying you were running a test. It worked great from your blog. I love this idea because I sometimes have a conflict with the quilt cam time and I am so disappointed when I cannot watch it. Thanks for all your effort to connect with us.
ReplyDeleteWOW! YIPPPEE!!! It was so nice to come to your page and find out I missed a broadcast, but I didn't miss it, I was able to watch it. I am liking this Google Plus and I sure hope it works out so all the folks all over the world can watch (and not in the middle of their night, lol) whenever they log on. Thanks again Bonnie for a great night of QuiltCam!
ReplyDeleteYes, I agree too. It is 11:17 pm. California time and I watched your test! Yippee! I hope it will be a good fit for you because it is nice to be able to tune in and see what you did even if I can't be there in person. Thanks for making all the effort to do this! It is really above and beyond and we appreciate all the time and money you have spent to get this working for all of us. Thanks again- We do love your work and your freely given love through quilting is a blessing to us all. K-
ReplyDeleteI was asleep last-night when QuiltCam was on. This morning I saw your test. Looks good!
ReplyDeleteYou are so tenacious and it seems to have paid off!~ GO, BONNIE, GO!!!!~
ReplyDelete:)
It works even here in australia too. I will tune in live sat midday our time riday evening yours.
ReplyDeleteHi Bonnie. I have just watched this at 06:50 in the uk and it is clear picture and the sound is clear. This would be great for me living in the UK because I very rarely get to watch quiltcam. I hope you got a good nights sleep in the end

ReplyDeleteIt was perfect! I'm watching on an Android tablet...I can take you with me everywhere :-)
ReplyDeleteThanks for finding a way to do it, this is so great. I'm very glad that it's go8ing to be available later. I always missed it when you were doing it before.
ReplyDeleteYea! It worked! And I replayed it here on the west coast, past midnight!
ReplyDeleteYAAAYYYYY!!!!! Now I can watch in my time, from the Deep South of Australia in Beautiful Tasmania. Thanks for all of your effort, hugz,
ReplyDeleteWoo Hoo!
ReplyDeleteWorks perfectly here in North Dakota at 2:30am central time!
ReplyDeleteYeah! Working great here in uk :-)
ReplyDeletehi bonnie, just watched your test broadcast embedded from your post this morning, 9am GMT (UK) and it worked fine, good image & clear sound!Have a great week :)
ReplyDeleteGood morning Bonnie. I watched the video at 0500. It's working, but there does seem to be a small disconnect between voice/mouth sync at time. Want to say, much improved from last night. Nice to have it available to watch later!!!!! I give it a thumbs up.
ReplyDeleteAJ
Really good - glad you've overcome the problems
ReplyDeleteThis test worked so well here in the UK. If you go with this system it means I can watch Quilt Cam over breakfast, and also throughout the day when I am actually quilting. That would be so good. It's a win-win situation for me!
ReplyDeleteGood Morning. Google Hangout looks great and sounds great. Your voice and your lips match with no delay. Clear crisp picture. Two thumbs up!!
ReplyDeleteThis is great!!!!! I love the fact that I can watch it whenever!!!
ReplyDeleteBonnie, I am looking at this on Wednesday morning. Yeah! This is a great solution. I'm looking forward to being with you on the Ireland trip.
ReplyDelete9.15pm Wednesday 13 March - all good, but then I (somehow) have never had problems :)
ReplyDeleteI'm so excited that this worked. Now I will get to see the Quilt Cam more often. Great Job Bonnie!!!!!
ReplyDeleteWow! This is great. I missed quilt cam last night because I had a quilt group meeting to attend. Imagine my surprise when I woke up this morning and checked your blog. There you were, telling me that you were testing something new. And I could see and hear you just fine. I love it! Thank you for all the work you do to reach out to us. You are an amazing person!
ReplyDeletehey cool, I just started watching when I could and that was not always possible, now with recording stuff I can !!!!!! remember that utube now has ads...before every session...seems you cant get away from ads anymore and they are really annoying! good luck and I think recording your shows is the way to go!
ReplyDeleteYES YES YES I can see you very clear in northern NY and you sound great! Way to go!
ReplyDeleteBlessings,
Cindy P.
It looks perfect!! And I love the idea of being able to watch anytime. Can't wait. I wasn't able to watch the ustream on my ipad, but I bet I'll be able to watch this youtube!! So excited!
ReplyDeleteIt's 6:30 am central time on March 13 and it is still working great. I am thrilled I will be able to watch the ones I miss.
ReplyDeleteIt´s working for me in Sweden too, great!
ReplyDeleteThis looks great! It was so disappointing not to be able to get quilt cam last night. If this works we can watch even when you're traveling! Hooray!
ReplyDeleteIt's Wednesday morning and I can hear and see you clearly! Hope you find one that works! Best of luck!
ReplyDeleteIt is 6 am here in South Dakota and I just watched the test. It worked great. I love the idea that it is on youtube and I can play back the feed. That way if you are not there and I need something to sew by I can just watch a repeat. I do that with Pat Sloans radio broadcasts.
ReplyDeleteHi Bonnie, it's 8 am the 13th and I was able to watch your video on your blog! How wonderful to be able to embed them. It looked fine...Julierose
ReplyDeleteYeah! It's working at 8a.m. I just can't remember the evening ones so I'm so glad to finally be able to see these. Great job, Bonnie!
ReplyDeleteLooks grea this morning in Virginia Bonnie. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart for all your teaching and sharing!
ReplyDeleteLori
Wow, this looks great! The sound is SO much better. Your mouth moves at the same time as the audio and is much smoother than Ustream, plus the video is good, too.
ReplyDeleteI watched it and the sound and picture were great. Yay, you did it
ReplyDeletef
ReplyDeleteabulous here in UK I can now watch all your "quilt cam " episodes
This seems to work much better than last night's quilt cam. When I made it full screen, you looked a little fuzzy, but the ironing board and other items in the background were very clear.
ReplyDeleteHow exciting! A recorded Quilt Cam! You work so hard to benefit all of us. Thanks for all you do. Looks great! Have a quilty day! Enjoy!!!
ReplyDeleteTest coming in loud and clear in Manassas, VA. Also just watched the video from the Friday before your trip, also loud and clear. It was up last night after your session and when I went back this morning it was still there and I watched the whole hour and a half. Nice recording still had ads but nice anyway because it's one that I missed.
ReplyDeleteI am usually working during Quiltcam, and even if I have a minute to watch, I get interrupted. Fabulous idea!!!!

ReplyDeleteIt sure looks a good to me; and what a fabulous fabulous bonus it would be if there is possibility of watching quilt cam, even if we had another commitment during the live time. Wouldn't that be a huge help to those in far away time zones too?
ReplyDeleteWorks for me! I went to YouTube and was able to watch it there also. Thank you so much for always going above and beyond for your devoted followers!
ReplyDeleteAND.... It's STILL working at 12Noon. Wed. March 13.........
ReplyDeleteI think this is the answer Bonnie!!!
ReplyDeleteIt works great this morning Bonnie. Now I'll have to try it on my kindle or I will be fight hubby for the computer friday night! LOLLL!
ReplyDeleteWatching this little clip on Wednesday morning...the background is very clear but you are a bit fuzzy. I think this is your camera not the carrier, but since I've done neither, how would I know??! Love quilt cam but the time difference between the east coast and west coast puts you here when I am usually cooking dinner or eating with my DH! I'll take you with me when I cook, but I feel it is so rude to have you at the dinner table and not feed you!!! Thank you so much for all you do for all of us - you are the best!!!
ReplyDeleteFuzzy here in BC, Canada as well. I love the idea of it being available after broadcast, as I just started back to work full time and don't want to miss anything!
DeleteIt is now almost 1:30 on Wednesday afternoon. I often can watch in the evenings, so it was great to be able to see it the next day. Nancy: rangerer@sbcglobal.net
ReplyDeleteI'm watching it in Australia 10.30am 14 March my time and it will be lovely to see you and hear you preferably live! But afterwards is better than missing out due to work and time differences! Thank you so much! Eddie
ReplyDeleteThe picture and audio are just great on your Google test. I think you are right--they blackballed you! I have always had success with quiltcam until last night.
ReplyDeleteIt was almost perfect here in Athens, Greece!
ReplyDeleteThank you Bonnie!
