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.

icons077e_files/4864-863FALH-msnicons.jpg How is education supposed to make me feel smarter? Besides, every time I learn something new, it pushes some old stuff out of my brain. Remember when I took that home winemaking course, and I forgot how to drive?:icons077e_files/4864-863FALH-msnicons.jpg |

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 Alan - you have saved from me going for Counselling.
Some may think we should share the Counselling appointment.
Also delighted to hear you are not on the BOM either.

| 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 think you misunderstood. Basically you are using the mifi gadget as a router, to provide Wireless Lan to you on the gantry and whoever has a laptop at the other end, so you both connect to the same wireless network. This way you can use it at away games as you are using a battery powered device, you could use a standard router if you have a power socket available, which I assume you do?. MiFi gadgets are cheap as chips on ebay, could probably get one for a tenner! How small is the budget! It does mean you need a laptop at both ends, although you could possibly use something like a Raspberry Pi at your end, cost 25 quid, plug the video capture USB stick into it, depending on if re-encoding is required. I know people have been using Rasp Pi for security cameras so it can be done.

| 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.
