Maybe last year haha! I was listening to BMIR earlier. It's always nice to listen to, close my eyes and pretend I'm in line for the gate.Traveller in Time wrote: ↑Thu Aug 23, 2018 4:51 amCamp Envy

Re: Live cam?
Back in 2013 ( when I was learning about BM and preparing to go to the event in 2014) I was able to watch the live stream of the event on my computer.
I attended the event in 2014, 2015, 2016, and 2017.
Since my advanced level of decay will not allow me to comfortably make the 5 day solo drive to the playa any more, I thought that this year I would sit back and watch you guys on the live steam.
Nope. That is not going to happen. It appears that in the last five years that method that is used to record and send the live steam has changed and my ol' Windows XP system will no longer allow me to view the live steam.
All is not lost. A neighbor out here is the woods has offered to let me come over and view the event on their 'somewhat-newer' computer for a few hours a day.

Re: Live cam?
An iPhone will do it.
Windows computers are cheap, a whole lot cheaper than even the fuel to drive to Black Rock.
Second hand couple-year-old ones can be had dirt cheap, sometimes free. Check around.
Some 30 year old probably has one lying in his closet he doesn’t even want, that is new enough to do what you need it to. I was given my first several Windows computers.
(Then I gave them away myself because I found I was happier on the other kind).

Re: Live cam?
Captain,
Thank you.
Unfortunately, I do not have a smart phone and it will be another 1-2 weeks before leave the woods and drive into town.
Best,
Meat Hunter

Sorry to hear, have borrowed equipment myself.
Progress seems to involve dumping last year model and getting the latest

Re: Live cam?
Yeah, but you’re in the woods man!
That is way better than some crazy party in the desert.
So much better that I moved into the woods 5 years ago for good.
Now when I have Hog or Goat rodeo there’s actual hogs and goats.
You’re not missing much on the webcast. It’s all zoomed out, the tower shakes, and gets all fuzzy and dusty.
Best times to watch is at night when the fires roar.

Laptops haven’t gotten much better in the past 5 years.
Less power usage for the same features/performance, longer battery charges.
I have 3 and 5 year old laptops I got for cheap second hand and they still rock it just fine.
The upgrade loop died when Moore’s Law broke at Intel.

Camera is behind Everywhere and the Artery, which in previous years was between 6 and 6:30 on the esplanade.... And that's where Media Mecca would be. but i expect to see the man?

It’s the main comm tower that has the microwave link to Gerlach, airport and the DPW Depot, amongst other things.
HEAT manages access so any dust cleaning and stuff requires a boom lift. No climbers.
Camera is the little dark half dome gizmo on the right side.

Re: Live cam?
A self-cleaning a camera hood similar to used in racecars should be incorporated.
With all the creative genius running around the Burn, there should be some kind of remotely operated air/water cleaning system that certainly could be devised.
During dusty conditions an occasional blast of air. Post-dusty conditions a blast of water followed by a blast of air to dry. Not that it probably wouldn't dryfast anyway,
Just brainstorming.
