My guests will be @Armelline and @Hopscotch and this will be one hell of a show! It's not going to be warm and fuzzy. We will be discussing how to build solid logic and dissecting the tall tales of what exactly leads to good code performance.

Sunday 1:00pm est.

    Thanks to my guests! We had a good time. The recorded broadcast will be ready once YouTube processes it.

    Thank you for inviting us @Lost_Oasis_Games. I enjoyed our talk, thanks to a great host!

    Great podcast! Excellent talk with some great presenters: @Hopscotch & @Armelline! Thanks for taking time out your day to do these!

    By the way, really liking the way the table previewer is turning out, @Armelline ! Great stuff!

    Very nice job fellas! I enjoyed the video very much. One thing that might make sense to show people the difference between clean code and unoptimized code is to do a video of a small but messy project that gets cleaned up. I am sure there are lots of people out here with messy mini-prototypes that can be excellent candidates for a clean up video.

    I made a project ready to do that but have yet to find the time to make the video! One day, hopefully soon!

    Thanks for taking the time to make this video - all of the information on optimisations, etc. was an unexpected bonus! :)

    Great show! Loved it (especially because I got a mention !! Yeeeaaah!! :p :) ), it was actually very professional, a lot of these hook ups are a bit 56kb + bad $£€ 8 mics + wildly varying levels, but great job on the sound quality on all three of you (Hopscotch with the pop shield = show off :D :p ) I could watch you three share your thoughts on GS every week, really good stuff ! Please get together again !

    @Hopscotch . . . "socks cheats" . . . - I've sent this comment to my legal team (my mum's friend who works in the local supermarket) expect some men in cheap suits and dark glasses to 'visit' you.

    :D Socks

    The only one in black at my door lately was Tony, asking for a bowl of milk, adoption papers in hand.

    Damn ! I knew they'd send the wrong people, I told them to keep Tony in his cage . . . . give me a couple more weeks and I will sort things out.

    Hey I use a pop shield too ;) I am not happy with the opening transitions. I think wire cast has an auto dissolve feature. I want to look into that this week so I can smooth out the opening. The feed delay kinda throws me off. Plus they way wire cast handles audio doesn't allow me to use usb out for monitoring the audio feed, only input or it causes audio pitch issues. Which is disappointing for a $500 software package. I have to send the audio from the skype to my headphone jack and into my mixer and mix it with my mic from my da converter since I don't use a sub mic. I set everything by meter so I know it is balanced.

    @Lost_Oasis_Games The first broadcast and the Sneak Peek play just fine on my Retina iPad but this broadcast won't? Alert says, "Playback Error Tap to Retry", but it still refuses to work.

    I'm using the latest YouTube app and iOS 9.2.1? Any ideas?

    It's a quality show you are hosting after all!

    Too late, you only get points for having the pop shield in frame, next episode points will be awarded for compression and reverb.

    I just use my browser and watch it there. I never use the YouTube app. YouTube does the processing on their end and I used the same stream protocols as before.

    Not to worry @Lost_Oasis_Games , now that I have Tony the spider under exclusive contract you can hire him for comic interludes, or invite him for a talk on the woes of being a model for game art.

    Whatever you are doing it's good, a broadcast where everyone can be clearly heard, a surprisingly rare thing.

    If it was truely a quality show, you would have had canapés and those little plastic glasses of wine you get at launch parties that you don't want to go to.

    Also @Hopscotch and @Armelline I finally watched the video on my iMac.

    Great discussion gentlemen. 5 :star:

    I went back to my iPad to try what Dave suggested and I discovered that if you have the YouTube app installed, even if you try to use Safari to go to YouTube, the YouTube app takes over and some videos just won't play?
