Congrats on your interncast. I see that you are pioneering webcasting on linux. I really liked your tutorial. Great show concept. Audio quality was ok. I wonder if your specifications had any effect on the audio quality. The recommended specifications are Sample Rate: 44KHz and Bit Rate: 64Kpbs. Did you record a back-up copy on audacity? I wasn't live on your show, I just listened to the audio on webcastacademy. I'm assuming that you were streaming both sides of the conversation in skype via ustream. Keep up the good work.

Thanks a lot for the link and info, plato. :-) I'm glad to know that it wasn't just me! I noticed the last time I was on that it happened again when I first logged in but then when we teleported to another location, all of the avatars appeared and the white blobs disappeared. Maybe it's getting worked out. I appreciate your response.

Thanks a lot for your reply, James. It's very reassuring to know it's not something I'm doing wrong. I don't have much confidence in SL yet.

SL only changed the process mode of how avatars materialize, I think.
There is no operator or computer error on your part.

Thanks for hte comment. I did download Yugma, but it seemed to be saying that I will only have it free for a trial period of time. Do you know a way to get it permanently free?

Saw something reported about this in the Linden Labs Status page at:
http://status.secondlifegrid.net/page/2/

Many residents have reported that their clothing are not loading and they are seeing others as white clouds. There are also some other issues such as some regions down, inventory not loading and search not working. We are aware of these problems and are working to fix these issues as soon as possible.

So I guess the answer is there's a glitch in SL that is supposedly fixed, but apparently not.

Hello Everyone,
I am excited to be here. I am late responding to my email,
therefore not sure if I have to wait until next time to participate.
Either way I am excited for this opportunity.
I am a technology coach at a k-8 special education school
emotionally disturbed self contained classrooms.
the middle school section of my school is participating in a 1:1 initiative program
that gives each teacher and student a laptop. And the teachers receive PD to learn
how to integrate technology into the curricululm. I am exploring other leadership areas of
education, currently I am enrolled in an Administration program at Columbia University.
I am looking to learn more ways to keep our students engaged in the classroom environment as
well as find other resources and opportunities for my teachers.

Hi Minhaaj, Not sure that you are recording from your sound card. It sounds like microphone is picking up sound from speakers. What your configuration is on linux... Is it like mac? I use soundflower like windows uses Virtual Audio Cables. Congrats on joining webcast academy. Jose Rodriguez, Co-Facilitator Webcast Academy Session 2.3; It's Elementary Webcast

I'm getting a bit dissapointed...
Got the USB sound adapter... In Lisbon, in the biggest store I could only find a Usb Sound adaptor from conceptronics , then I installed it, connected the mic to it and the headspeakers to the regular entry and ... nothing... I changed most of the options and I don't seem to get it right.... Is there anything else I should do?

What I don't know how to do is to get this thing to display properly in my Studio Section. I need to recheck the tutorials on how to work on Studio Space layout.

Still, it feels like step by step, I'm getting a little bit closer to being there.

Hi Jeff,

I tried to use the same kind of answer but I don't know if I succeded...
You were certainly right about the first question: thew sound came probably from the speakers I kept using (Creative - SBS vivid 60), because everytime I unplugged the speakers and just used the Audio 310 from Plantronics the Skype lady was heard but in a very low tone that I have never managed to amplify. By the time I uploaded the audio file I was not aware of this.

This afternoon I tried for some hours to record audacity + Skype lady without the creative speakers but I always got the same result with my headset. So I don't send you any new recording as I didin´t manage to get any new results.

Ah! I went to Plantronics.com to see if there was some software to down load and found nothing, so I started usind the headset with what I had. It's a two separate inputs system and as I work in a laptop there are no special entries: you just plug in each input in the right whole....

I'll be in tomorrow for the meeting...

I've explained all of this in case you don't manage to see the video.

Thanks

In case you can't - Congrats on making progress. Skype lady sounded like she was on speaker being recorded by your microphone (as opposed to be captured via your soundcard). Was that the case?

Hi Jeff, Mind my ignorance. Only when I read your message yesterday, I realised that the problem was the mic. I didn't have one and I kept using the mic in the PC. Well, this morning I bought a new one and part of the echo is gone. I'm going to redo the activity just after this message and upload it for the 3rd time and see if the problem is solved. Thanks for all your attention
