Hi Jaume,

We have some talks on 31.8 / 1.9.
http://metalab.at/wiki/WirNennenEs30

one is by me on topic "semantic desktop", others by Grenzfurthner and Magnus Wurzer, perhaps more.
two ideas, independent of each other:

A:
are you interested in recording one of them, to test the equipment?

record them, store, host them longer (or upload on google|youtube video)

B:
I have some friends in Kaiserslautern, who may want to follow the event  via video-stream,
but we had only mediocre results so far using Skype or other video-conferencing tools to connect parties,
is icecast a solution here?

this would mean live-streaming, a different issue that recording, but also interesting in this setup.

(connecting events could look like this, example from roböxotica):

Better? mmm, in my opinion is radically not better.
The webcam streams is that kind of streams that nobody see because of 
the bad quality. From my experience, perople don't follow to much video 
streams coz molst of them are very bad video quality, bad lights in the 
stage and impossible to understand the audio.
What I'm porposing is not  to do stream, this is technically, really 
easy. What I propose i to do a channel, and that requires audience.
People folow streams if they are sexy en off, in quality of contents, 
and in quality of the emission (this is just my experience last years)

cheaper and
needs  less energergy than a PC ;)

Hi all,
about the idea to do regular video transmissions
from metalab
http://metalab.at/wiki/MetalabTV

To start it is needed a computer, let's call it,
streambox.
I asked some people if there is any computer
available in metalab for this.
The main work that the computer should do is live
encoding using 
ffmpeg2theora or Puredata patches. I'm not sure at
this moment about 
minimal requeriments for the streambox, but maybe
could be a  2,4 Ghz 
CPU / 512 RAM

That's all by the moment
