Oh fiddleysticks! Back to the drawing board then, although I suppose nowadays drawing boards are out and it''s all fancy electronic whiteboards and computer pencils. Bit of a blow, as I've just spent a productive day at work writing the pilot episode of my chess soap.
I don't quite understand the bandwidth malarky but I'm gathering that to produce a livestream broadcast would mean that the coach or whoever was producing the event to be screened would break some sort of limit placed on most normal internet users when producing the broadcast and would incur some sort of financial penalty with their broadband provider.
Two other options for training have been mentioned on the junior pages - playchess with skype and webex and the way I understand webex is that you'd also need skype or a phoneline for this. Apart from the monthly cost for both are there call charge costs involved in these for the coach or the participants?
Are there any alternatives that haven't been mentioned so far, that I could look into?
