thanks for that Tony Im only using a Canon consumer camera and HD isn't needed just an ordinary SD picture is all they need (MPEG2) as their sports tagging and review programme will only accept that, £10K is far too rich for me and I somehow diont think Michael will authorise £10K I don't like going down the rental route TBH but thanks
there is clear line of sight between the two points, we are investigating transmitting through the Stadium LAN if thats a non goer we will probably investigate the cheaper 5.8 Mhz unit they are around £40

Boxx.tv is the company Fred. My man says it is a lot cheaper for other formats. Get in touch with them. A good British company.

My knowledge on Technology is very limited , ive just got used to using the TV remote .

Once again, I find myself fully in agreement with you!

P.S. And I'm not on the BOM either!

Which camera do you have? Do you have a laptop at the camera end you could use? Capture it there (can you not see the feed directly on the laptop via USB, e.g. no need for video capture?) then have the stream available via stadium or other wifi (use a mifi gadget?) You can use VLC player or Mplayer to broadcast it via wifi. Might need to re-encode it if it is HD so it will 'fit' over wifi.

Good job we 're still not on 33.6 kp dial up... oh how we've improved with tinternet in this country over the last 15 yrs or so..

Did the laptop attached straight via firewire (when cams and laptops had them) and used a programme called LONGOMATCH to do the tagging and playback - great for any amateur football/rugby club for video analysis by the way, but the coaching team are reluctant to come across to the East side and LSV wont let me film from the west (though we did it for a full season a couple of years back ???) a regular box on the half way line is not possible due to them being taken by paying 'punters'.
Also unless one buys a high end prosumer camera modern cams dont direct stream from USB, we are doing it on a tight budget so costs will have to be kept to a minimum so mifi is out, not being negative folks just saying it as it is.
I agree the easiest way round is for the coaching staff to be near the camera but at the end of the day I can't force that issue only advice and come up with alternatives.
Thanks everyone for their comments and tips, having a site meeting today with a couple of possible solutions, if money wasn't an issue the Boxx system looks great, Im sure SKY (Telegenic) use it for the roaming camera on Rugby 'shoots' black box on rear of camera with aerials on it.
Ohh to be rich and have no worries about budgets .

Pete has suggested a (cheap) way of doing this so if you don't get it sorted today have a chat with him on Saturday.

Thanks all, think we (well Chris Platt - thanks Chris) for both home (using LSV LAN) and for away going with a good 5.8Mhz video sender, seems the best solutions for us without breaking the bank, would love to do what Tony suggested but too expensive for my miserly pocket .

I thought 10k would be loose change to you fred

That loose I've already lost it

yes thanks I did get what you wrote we are going to trial several methods and then decide which is best for home then away games it may well be that due to constrictions on most grounds in the Championship a direct wire link will have to be done, again thanks to everyone for suggestions advice and tips.
