Making the Streamer Work in the Chrome Browser

If you get a image of white noise when you try to browse a stream, you need to tell the Chrome browser that the new BATC site is safe for the use of Flash. To do this:

1. Right click on the green “Secure” in the address bar.
2. Select Site Settings
3. Go down to Flash, and select allow.

Your browser will remember this setting and you should not have to do it again for the BATC Site.

Streaming from the Portsdown to the new Streamer

The Portsdown is already set up to stream to the new streamer. All you need to do is enter the Stream details and

1. Log on into Console mode and from the Menu select "3 Output"
2. In the Output Parameters Menu select "3 Output Mode"
3. In the Output Type menu use the down arrow to highlight "Streamer" and press the space bar and then enter.
4. The correct stream URL of rtmp://rtmp.batc.org.uk/live should already be entered.
5. Press enter to bring up the stream key page
6. Enter your stream name (callsign) in lower case, followed by a hyphen and then the 6 character stream key. For example g8gkq-xYzaBC
7. Press enter to get back to the main menu.

Now, every time that you select "Streamer" either from the console menu or the touchscreen (or autostart into the streamer) you will stream to the new BATC Streamer.
