Minifig's Gaming Channel, where Minifig plays World of Warcraft, and on occasion, perhaps other games too.

Information about the Stream:

Computer: Custom built Intel Core i7 920 @ 2.67 Ghz, 6.00 Gig of Ram running Windows 7 64 Bit Ultimate edition. 2 nVidia 250s. Dual Monitors, Monitor #1 : Acer H233H, 1920x1080. Monitor #2 Dell 2405 FPW 1920x1280. Both LCD screens. Monitor #1 is used for the gaming stream, Monitor #2 has the UStream chat and usually information about the game I am currently playing (such as WoW Wiki) and AIM/MSN/YIM up on it 24/7.


The WoW User Interface I run is entirely custom, and is made up of sixty-one different add ons all found on WoW-Interface and Curse Gaming. If you would like it, ask me (Mini) enough, and I may publish it on WoW-Interface.




As far as how I stream, I use Adobe Flash Media Encoder 3 (just like UStream recommends) and another client which is a driver. The other client, which is only used to do the picture in picture, I still don't fully understand very well, so I don't tell people which one it is for fear that they will get frustrated at it, and eventually at me. It's a very confusing application/driver to use.

I'm on a business class ADSL line, and yes, I do get heavy lag when streaming, I've just gotten used to it while I am streaming, though, because of this lag, I strongly, do not recommend anyone attempt this type of streaming. It's not exactly worth it.
