"All about VidBlaster" is the theme for That VidBlaster Guy! which premiers this Tuesday, July 10th at 2 pm CDT (7 UTC) at www.ThatVidBlasterGuy.com (http://www.ThatVidBlasterGuy.com).
The show format includes interviews with new-media professionals who use VidBlaster to stream a variety of events. Amnon Nissan (www.NissanCommunications.com (http://www.NissanCommunications.com)) will be my guest for this first show. His company streams several different talk shows including the very popular Computers 2K Now on Sunday morning (www.computers2know.com (http://www.computers2know.com)). Many thanks to Amnon for hosting my website and providing the chatroom.
Each show will focus on a different theme starting with talk shows, sporting events, and church services. The show guests will come from those fields. The first few shows will be "alphas" to a limited audience, then a few "betas" to a wider audience, then... the big time! ;)
The Tips & Tricks segments will include... choosing the best capture card for your broadcast; no cost ways to optimize your PC for broadcasting; CDNs - free or paid; and using a SSD or a RAMDisk to enhance your streaming, and more.
VidBlaster tutorials will include... using VVD for return video with Skype, using chromakey, using instant replay for sports, PowerPoint integration, and more.
While the show will be specifically about VidBlaster, my main goal is to prove that you can do a good broadcast using just one PC. Since many of the concepts shared in the show apply to other software/hardware products, too, I think everyone will have some good "take-aways" from the show.
Hope you'll tune in and chime in, too. Pre-show will start about 1:30.
