Have you tried getting the feed from Glen Research Centre, I get much
better download and picture quality from there than on NASA TV from the
UK but today I cannot get Glen at all, maybe overloaded ;-)


Un saludo

Yeah so am I and they are ok, but I get about 150kbps from NASA
TV but about 400kbps from Glen which gives a crystal clear picture But
of all days I can't seem to get a feed from Glen today so using NASA TV.
I also only get about 100kbps from Kennedy space centre.

Do you have an url on that Glenn webcast? Is it in real media or windows
media format? What I've found on NASAs list of sources lists Glenn as a real
video stream with a pretty crappy picture...

Just tried Glen now and got it just fine, maybe a lot of people just
logged off since the broadcast finished.
