GAME NIGHT: Saturday, April 13th, 2013: The Day After a Dark Night

Below are streaming instructions, with individual game stream links in separate replies. Please reply to your specific game if you are experiencing issues!

High Quality HD Streams using QuickTime (File -> Open URL/Location), VLC player v2.0.6 (VLC works best if launched from the command line and MUST be the latest version, see below!), or iPhone/iPad and WiiU (just click the link or enter the URL into the browser):

• Find your team matchup in the replies below, right click on the link and copy-paste it into VLC/QuickTime as instructed!

• You can increase/decrease the quality by changing "3000" in the URL to either 400, 800, 1200, 1600, 3000, or 4500. Also works on Android devices using BS Player, Dice Player, WonderShare, etc.

• Streams do not go active until 30 minutes prior to scheduled tip-off.

• (Be warned, this stream/loophole might cause ISP copyright infringement warnings, but chances are remote. If worried, use a VPN proxy such as HotSpot Shield to anonymize your IP address, although this will cause lag and impact your bandwidth. Please be responsible with the links and try not to post the full address text. The more they are posted on the internet, the quicker this loophole may be closed.)

VLC Command Line Instructions: You can just open VLC v2.0.6, go to File -> Open Network, and paste the URL from the replies below; however, many people have a problem with the stream stopping every 30 seconds. If this happens to you, use the following Command Line option to solve the issue:

• For Windows: Go to Run (WindowsKey-R) and enter the following, replacing the URL in the command with the link from your game stream:

    C:\Program Files (x86)\VideoLan\VLC\vlc.exe http://copy.url.here.m3u8 --http-continuous 
  

This assumes that VLC is installed into the default directory on your C drive. This may vary depending on your specific installation configuration.

• For Mac: Open Terminal and enter the following, replacing the URL in the command with the link from your game stream:

    /Applications/VLC.app/Contents/MacOS/VLC "http://copy.url.here.m3u8" --http-continuous
  

• For Linux: Enter the following and replace the URL in the command with the link from your game stream:

    vlc http://copy.url.here.m3u8 --http-continuous
  

If that doesn't work, try the following:

• BE ABSOLUTELY SURE YOU HAVE THE LATEST VERSION OF VLC (2.0.6)!!

• Adjust the URL to 400 or 800 and increase your cache.

• Try searching for other players that support m3u8 live video playlists and see if another application works better. Users have reported that QuickTime and WonderShare work well.

• "Error 47: Invalid URL" in QuickTime is a known bug when using URLs. I don't know a solution yet so you need to use another player if this occurs.

• Try the stream on alternate computers/devices. (iPhones and iPads work flawlessly, as well as the WiiU)

If you find a solution or player that works for you, please share it for others!
