right now there being edited to just when something is on cam. To do that takes time. If we just went with, play the 8 hours you sleepy heads are sleeping, you would see what ya missed. I will ask about being able to fast forward however.

Whoops I am slow, missed what you were really talking about.  I have yet to use that feature, but I plan on it and think it is a great thing.

Yes, I use it a lot, especially when I get on and it's night in Africa when it's day in the States.  Today I didn't use it as much because I enjoy listening to the rain and watching the African thunderstorms.   It's really nice to see the things I missed and I appreciate having them there.Smile

MS.C - what would really be cool is if we could fast-forward/pause/rewind through it. I think a lot more people would use it! Like when the cam operater has stepped away and we are looking at something not-so-interesting, it would be cool to be able to skip through those parts.

Just my 2 cents worth - the technology probably isn;t there but thought I'd throw that out there anyhoo......Eye-wink

Actually the technology is there but to do all of this cost a lot of money. So just having the time shift button is a big deal for us. Wasn't sure how many used it. If we just stream what we have missed and not worry about editing it, we can see this every day. So need to know whatcha think of that..? A lot just missed those Lions, and this is the perfect way to see them later...Smiling IMHO

Question on that, Ms.C..What time of the day does the recording start? Sunrise? Or thereabouts? Does that mean that one has to watch for some12 hours before getting to the lions (since they arrived just after sunset)?? That part has always confuzzled me..

I hope you get more feedback from other cammers!

QUESTION TO MEMBERS:

Are any of you aware of the time shift button on the front of the web site...and are you using it....?

 

yup all my times come up in my timezone and yes I missed the lovely ladies walking on through.  Hopefully maybe there will be more to come!

I'm just trying to find out now, how many are aware of it, and do you guys want it. If so, I'm working on it now.
