<baptista> not the audio servers - i can connect to the vieo
<DROBERTS> the agenda is at http://www.icann.org/losangeles99/losangeles-details.htm
<jdbnet> Thanks.
<baptista> audio feed on primary is still down
<jdbnet> I can hear via RealVideo.
<baptista> audio feed on secondary is still down
<baptista> yes - i know real video feeds are working - but i don't want to load down our gateway - its busy today
<jdbnet> My link is only 15Kbps
<baptista> ok - i'll see how it goes - we have a 10 mb pipe - and it's slow.
<tommyg> i have checked both audio streams and am having no problems with them.
<DROBERTS> can we get them to stop moving the camera
<baptista> ok thanks - will try too
*** rePete has joined #ICANN-LA
<baptista> they never moved the cameras this much before.
*** webstoresnw has joined #ICANN-LA
<DROBERTS> I'm getting sea sick there is so much movement
<webstoresnw> someone shouldv'
<webstoresnw> brought a tripod...LO
* webstoresnw gongs you.
<webstoresnw> anyone else getting a buzzing on the mics there?
<DROBERTS> yes
<webstoresnw> ok
<anonymous> Can't hear the questions!?
<webstoresnw> not really here either...

* baptista  (Auto-Away after 10 mins) [BX-MsgLog On]
<webstoresnw> geez, can't hear what questions are being asked!!
<anonymous> Please turn the microphones up so we can hear!
*** amf has joined #ICANN-LA
*** rePete has quit IRC (QUIT: )
<anonymous> You really must turn up the audience microphone.
<webstoresnw> Joe are you there?
<anonymous> Is any one working on the audience microphone?
<webstoresnw> I think they are ignoring us over here...

<anonymous> Is there anyone out there that can fix the volume on the audience microphone?
*** rePete has joined #ICANN-LA
*** clint has quit IRC (QUIT: )
<webstoresnw> no we can't hear you
*** jdbnet has quit IRC (QUIT: )
<anonymous> The internet won't collapse!
<webstoresnw> Nony Moose you need to change your name
<webstoresnw> =)
*** German-Perez has joined #ICANN-LA
<rePete> if only the mic inputs were equalized then the audio level out could be better controlled
* webstoresnw is going to be away from the channel.
<anonymous> Why isn't the 10:00 AM meeting being broadcasted?
<rePete> it is
<rePete> the IANA ccTLD Meeting is going on now.
<anonymous> In the other rooms (ie Famous Trademarks)
*** Edelman has joined #ICANN-LA
<Edelman> How is the audio for all of you?
<anonymous> Audience microphone needs adjusting!
<webstoresnw> audio is terrible
<Edelman> can you be more specific?
<webstoresnw> Cannot hear audience questions and have slight buzzing in audio
<rePete> I think it's better, I now have some level of granularity .  It's okay for me
<anonymous> The volume is low for the audience.
<webstoresnw> better
<Edelman> So audience mic is too quiet?
<Edelman> That's tough to fix...
<anonymous> Yes
<Edelman> ... because the room is succeptible to feeback if we turn up levels too much.
<Edelman> and the mic provided by the hotel is not of the highest quality (to be generous)
<webstoresnw> if you just did something, I can hear better now
<webstoresnw> =)
<Edelman> and the people wanting to talk at the audience microphone are of varying heights.
<webstoresnw> understandable, we just missed half of the earlier questions
*** juan has joined #ICANN-LA
*** juan has quit IRC (QUIT: )
<webstoresnw> can the mod maybe sum up the question so we can hear those that we can't hear 
  from the mic?
<webstoresnw> liike the last guy
<anonymous> What are the points?
<anonymous> Who's the guy in the way?
<webstoresnw> PLEASE ADJUST THE CAMERA OR THE GUY IN THE WAY
<webstoresnw> Thank you!  =)

*** Shoeless has joined #ICANN-LA
<webstoresnw> Much better
<Edelman> (re the suggestion from a few of you that comments be summarized before response...)
*** baptista has quit IRC (QUIT: baptista has no reason)
<Edelman> i don't think they want to do so in this informal meeting.
<webstoresnw> ok
<Edelman> but tomorrow and wednesday, when the meetings are bigger...
<Edelman> ... they'll do so.
<webstoresnw> ok, good
<Edelman> and we also hope to have somewhat better audio quality tomorrow and afterwards.
<Edelman> today i'm trying to do other work rather than "run" the webcast.
<Edelman> but tomorrow and henceforth you'll have 100% of my attention plus *three* other Berkman staff people.
<webstoresnw> =) doing good for a one person op..
<Shoeless> Kudos!
