MyShowroom.TV

Embed player function updated to support chat

We had embed functionality before both for live and recorded shows. But we did not had an embed function where you could embed your channel with a chat and your recorded shows.

We've updated MyShowroom.TV embed function. Now you can embed the standalone live player to your site or embed a player which plays your live shows, has a chat functionality and able to playback pre-recorded shows. We've tweaked on it a little. As you can see on the screenshot below you have many color schemes to use now. So if your page is clean white or darker or just colorful you can pick a color scheme which fits the best and the embed player will appear in that color.

Once you picked a color scheme click on the "preview" link to see how your embed player will look like. And as before when you're ok with it, just copy the code and add it to your page. From that time the player with all the great function will work. If you record a show that will appear on the recorded shows tab in the embed player.

Also the embed player now uses multi-languages!

Same embed player used by JustMusic.FM. Check out JustMusic Live. Give it a shot and check out this new function. If you have any feedback do not hesitate to share it with us.

Broadcast Quality

In many cases the default broadcast quality could be too much for your bandwidth. For example if you're on the road with a mobile Internet where the signal strength is not the best you will run out of it and the broadcast will stop. There's an opposite side when you're on a cable and you have more bandwidth you could do a higher quality stream too.

MyShowroom.TV launched a new function where you can change the quality of your broadcast anytime. To do this just go to your profile settings page on the website. There's the Broadcast Quality menu where you can change these settings. Make sure you restart MyShowroom.TV Studio after the change as the tool need to sync up again with the server.

For those who need only a tool to broadcast their desktop (presentation) in a better quality we have an option now. This quality setting works only with the desktop broadcast, but there provide much better quality for readability.

We Hope more of you will use this exciting new function. Send us any comment you have.

Statistics, statistics...

A few weeks ago we've updated the statistical functions on MyShowroom.TV. Since we've had many request from our broadcasters to show more data on usage and viewer numbers. We've heard that and the statistical functions are there now for everyone. Where you find them?

If you go to the profile settings page there's a statistics menu on the right hand side. On this page you will find a historical overview on your past activity. You can sort them by date of course. You will get a great overview how much live and recorded views you had on every shows.

 

There's a detailed view on each shows. If you click on the "statistics" link next to any of your shows name you will get a popup (see below). The popup will gives you a detailed statistical overview on a specific show.

We hope you will like this new statistical function and will help you to make more exciting programs in the future based on the feedback of your viewers.

MyShowroom.TV uses Silverlight 2!

Just one day passed and MyShowroom.TV already uses the latest Silverlight 2 technology. Microsoft officially announced the new Silverlight 2 final release to the World on October 14th. We're very excited about this announcement, as we waited so long to have Silverlight 2 out. We've built MyShowroom.TV when Silverlight was just a concept really (missed so many functions at that time) and gone through all the versions from alpha to betas and final releases.

Silverlight 2 is a huge improvement compare to the first release and this become a much more serious competitor to the flash platform around this time. At MyShowroom.TV we're using the latest advantages what Silverlight offers and we hope all of our users will benefit from this part.

This also means that when you come back to visit the site you will see a Silverlight Install image at the place of the player. Just click on that and update Silverlight on your machine. You will have to follow Microsoft's installation steps and from that time you're ready to use Silverlight 2! It really takes just a few seconds, no worry.

Read more about the release on Scott Guthrie's blog (Scott is the Corporate Vice President in the Microsoft Developer Division). http://weblogs.asp.net/scottgu/archive/2008/10/14/silverlight-2-released.aspx
