Hi all.  Thanks for the new day hanneke.  Something sure made the wildie and zebras take off in a hurry.  I was busy on another project and didn't see what might have been going on before they took off.  Is NK cam buffering (spinning wheel) a lot?  every few seconds it seems now it is doing that for a couple seconds.

anyone else having problems with the stream at NK?  I get like 5-10 seconds of sound then it buffers for 5-10 seconds continuously even after closing other stuff I had up and with just the one cam running.

ok then not just me.  My isp speed is a bit low but well within range of getting good streams so wanted to know it wasn't just me before reporting it as a problem.  ty morris.

40 % signal  to me so our dish and everything is ok 

its the feed from vancouver  is why my signal  is so slow

so now thier gona give us $$$$ back for  time loss

would have been  nice if they had sent us a e-mail saying

and them telling us w were having no problem with our dish

pass the buck pass the buck

Hi Morris and T/Man - same with the buffering here also (NK)

What a beautiful moon showing through the top right of the NK picture, guess it will come down a little more. So bright, it almost makes it look like daylight!

Chris.

Edit: Keep feeding all the w/life Barry - good job!

Edit #2 - Sorry, didn't say Hi to everyone else: "HI".!!

well the NK cam feed problem has been reported anyway.  Figures it would be in the middle of the night when everyone probably sleeping but hope they get it sorted out soon.

Nice full moon look now at NK with the reflection on the water.

I noticed it amid the running.  I thought it was noticible with the dark water in the background with the white spinning wheel there.  It did seem to be a shorter period of buffering though I figured you must have edited out most of the dead space.  ty for posting that.  They sure did come a running out of the trees area fast.
