Folks,
Been watching the video stream from the launch of STS-128 and now the
approach to docking.
One thing I have noticed, it takes for ever to get video, and it is not exactly
on time, appearing (depending on what I am using to view it ) to be from 3
seconds to a couple of minutes delayed.
I notice that the video shown in Firefox is the fastest, but when I open the
page it takes several minutes to get a video and audio stream.
If i use VLC it gets worse, anywhere from 3 to a tens of seconds behind
Firefox. I used to be able to see these things almost as soon as I clicked
on them, it seems it has gotten slower and slower.
Is this just the nature of the thing or is it something I need to tweak??
My incoming data rate is 7.5MB at slowest rate. The data rate of the video
stream is much slower than that.
I am seeing the same thing on both Ubuntu 9.04 and SuSE 11.1
I no longer have a windows box so I can not compare to one of those
things.
