It's just like slot cars, Johnny. You keep trying stuff until something works... LOL!

Steve,

Yeah, I know. Unfortunately relocating the camera is not an option for this trip.

I'm brainstorming on putting together a broadcasting "kit" to bring to these big races, with a potent computer, a broadcast console, and multiple wireless cameras to allow for the kind of video feeds I'd really like to be able to do. The raceway would still have to have a decent high-speed connection unless I can finance a fast 4G wireless connection.

Maybe someday...

More tweaks... increased the frame rate to the max and enabled "high resolution" in the Ustream CP. Should look even better now; please let me know.

It's up and running for me but there is no sound.

Thanks, Dom. That's what I was worried about but as I have said, I don't have enough processing power here to check it from my end.

I'm going to let it run until this race is complete then will restart it to see if I can get the sound back.
