Short description: Unable to attend 28C3? Watch the 28C3 streams from our hackerspace

Attending:

  1. Vicarious


Challenges:

  • There are 3 streams, but we only have 1 large room, 1 projector (beamer), 2 TV's (and plenty monitors), 1 or 2 hi-fi stereos in our hackerspace.
  • The lectures take place from 11:30 until 02:15, but the building where our hackerspace is located closes at 22:00.

How are we going to solve this?


Proposal 1:

Decide per lecture which lecture we are going to watch and show it on the projector with audio via the hi-fi stereo.

Watch the other streams on the two tv's but with muted audio.

Cons:

  • It's a hassle to switch streams between the devices.
  • We'll only listen to one stream at a time. Otherwise it will be too hard to follow the lectures, still be able to read/follow the slides from the other lectures.


Proposal 2:

Always show the stream from lecture hall (Saal) 1 on the beamer, lecture hall 2 on the LCD TV and lecture hall 3 on the CRT TV. Decide per lecture which stream we are going to watch and mute the other two streams or devices.

Cons:

  • We'll only listen to one stream at a time. Otherwise it will be too hard to follow the lectures, still be able to read/follow the slides from the other lectures.


Proposal 3:

Find 2 more rooms, place a computer and a TV in each room to watch the other streams with audio.

Cons:

  • We would have to keep an eye on two more rooms.


Does anyone have any better ideas how we can fix this? Please add your proposals and suggestions
