Hey Everyone,

It's that time again. Saskatoon is approaching and that means time for some VOD details.

1. If you are attending the event with a team, please follow this link and post your team info and logo. http://www.forum.progamingleague.ca/showthread.php?p=19945#post19945

2. We are going to start the live stream on Saturday June 27, 2009 at 1pm central time and cover all day Saturday and Sunday. We will be covering mostly Halo 3 2v2 and 4v4 matches. We will not be in attendance on Friday but the stream will be active as we will be testing out and implementing some new features, as well as replaying some of the best matches from PGL Toronto. We will try to get info from the event and update the live stream with details of the FFA and other games happening on Friday night. This is not a priority however as we will be testing video elements so keep an eye on the forums first for that info.

3. Crew. Again, on the video production side, the staff is 2 people. There are a bunch of cool things we would like to try with some acquired new gear... but it requires bodies. If you are going to be there in attendance on Saturday and Sunday and aren't playing and would like to help, please pm me. Camera people, graphics, announcers, stats people are all places we could use some extra help with. If you are playing but would like to help in the downtime, pm and let me know if it's something you are interested in. It would be greatly appreciated. The pay is that fuzzy feeling you get when you know you have contributed to the greater good of a final product. (and your name in a credit list if we have time)

4. At the risk of sounding like a broken record, please read this post instead. The same rules still apply. http://www.forum.progamingleague.ca/showthread.php?t=2759&page=2
We will be doing our best to provide a smooth viewing experience but internet, power and other such things are often beyond our control. We will do our best to update on details we are aware of that may cause the viewing experience to be less than desirable should that occur.

5. Chat moderators. If you jump on the chat and all of a sudden there is an @ logo next to your name, that means I like you... or I clicked the wrong button. We are using ustream again and that is the moderator logo. Please use your judgement but by all means kick first time and then ban at will for repeat offenders committing the following crimes.... racism, repeated use of foul language, sexual comments, flooding the chat with repeated multiple questions or random statements. eg. copy, paste, repeat, ban.

6. Quarter inch jack adapters are your friend. If you want to hear audio from the mixers when you are playing on the main stage or monitors, please have one for your headset if it is a mini connection. I brought 10 that people "borrowed" from me in Toronto... guess how many came back?

That's all for now. See you in Saskatoon!

That is the opposite of the connection you need. It needs to be smaller end you input that turns it into the larger connection.

Yes... That is it! If you have headphones with the small end on them, that is the connector you need so you can tap into the audio from the mixer.

I still don't get it..

Will my Sennheiser 555's work if they have the kind of plug-in that fits into any headphone jack?

Yeah can I just use my A40's and they will still work? I can just use my A40 mixamp correct?

What about a40's?

They're plugged right into the 360 if you have an optical cable.

Well, assuming PGL is using the VGA cables, which have an optical input, i guess you could plug the headphones into the cable, if they let you. I'm not sure of the mixers they use.

How do the Astro's connect to the astro mixer?

It's called a quick disconnect to 4-pole connector cable.

Ok, I have no idea what that is, but how would you use the Astro's without the mixamp?

okay wtf i can't use my sennheiser's at the event? if thats the case thats bullshit.

I'm still so confused like do you need that to have sound on every TV or just to get sound on the live stream?

edit: if anyone has one adapter thinger that i can borrow at the event i'll give them a hug.

Royal....Pull your small headphone hack off. Theres a big one that you need underneath of it. If you have Senheisser 555's then that solves your problem.

While Nervez, the site says its a 3.5mm jack (regular headphones) with a 1/4" adapter. so did it come with an adapter?

Nervez
06-26-2009, 12:40 PM
Yep.

Like I said though worst comes to worst theres a mall a block away where anyone can go to. Theres a circuit city, sony store, and many others so nobody should worry.

If your actually oblivious enough to not realize that there is another jack underneath the 3.5 mil jack then you obviously don't have the mental capacity to flag run. Have fun walking it.

Quite clear cut actually. Lets see how well you place at Saskatoon. As for you bringing up my sig on mlgpro just to make me unliked by the PGL community, hopefully it works and im booted from everyone custom i'm ever in with people that attend the events.

That is all.

Dude, I was just joking around with you about the sig. I wasn't trying to make anyone not like you. Sorry if it came off like that. :(
