I apologize for being harsh, but there has not been one major justin.tv stream that I have seen that has been enjoyable to watch. Seriously. Last year's startup school, this year's startup school, the wolfram alpha launch. It's either the audio cutting out, the video freezing, or both. I appreciate that the service is free and that they're working hard to get it to work, but honestly, this has happened so many times to the point where I'd just rather read people's summaries of the talks than trying to tolerate the choppy videos anymore. It's gotten a bit ridiculous.<p>I get they're a YC company, cool, but in following years, you should give an alternative, like UStream, etc, if the quality there is better. I try to avoid justin.tv as much as possible in general now.
Will recordings of the talk be posted online, preferably with slides attached?
It would be wonderful if they were and i am sure that i'm not the only one that would appreciate it.<p>Watching inspiring talks like these are a real godsend for me, especially since i don't have the possibility to attend anything similar to this in real life. We don't have many web or startup related events here in Gothenburg (Sweden) and the availability of them online is as close as i come to meet these incredible people. :)
Why is there only one monolithic video clip which can't be scrubbed to skip ahead or go backwards? <a href="http://www.justin.tv/clip/2493eb6f993f6e24" rel="nofollow">http://www.justin.tv/clip/2493eb6f993f6e24</a><p>And why is it only 2 hours long?<p>Is there any place to watch the entirety of the day's talks?
Off-topic.<p>I love justin.tv, I have been following it since its early days of justin's stunt on lifecasting. I have seen the site morph over time. But the site in its current form is just very ugly UI. The chat widget is horrible and the bar on top is very out of place. They need to look at other live streaming site for decent UI design.
I see a lot of comments about the video being choppy. I did not have this problem on my end. The video was fine for me in the Austin area. I have a ton of bandwidth in with bursting and had no choppy video whatsoever. The choppy video might be a bandwidth problem caused by your ISP overloading the node with other residential customers. I know from experience that some do this, and on Saturdays it can really slow things down.<p>I did notice the audio cut out but it was coming in as static so it might have been physical mic problem onsite vs. the actual audio delivery from the server to the client.<p>By the way YCombinator--GREAT JOB with this live broadcast, I loved it, it was GREAT!<p>Launch early and iterate!
