I've been waiting for this to happen for quite some time now, the first 24h race in LFS history!! (correct me if I'm wrong)

Good luck to all who participate!

I hope so too. Wouldn't look fine if one's doing a crash when he is on video

A shame that there will be no ZT team this time, so we cant say we won them all :/

Well, actually we won only one in the overally ranking, but we always won in the GTI

Looks good, count me in for sucking your stream bandwidth

I hope there's a place left for me when I join the stream...

I think there will be plenty of places, but it might be a good idea to be there in time

You are also able to follow the race using LFS Specator. You can download that here (get the file 22: LfS_Spectator_2_02.zip).


Connect to the server Masters of Endurance.

According to Mika, the organizer for the stream, they will have 500 slots with an option for more.

I think that should be enough, or not? Well Hoellsen you surely know how many poeple look at such a stream, cause you where involved in the moderation of the ESL finals. Can you tell us any numbers from there?

If just half of the community is interested in watching... Nah, sounds enough...

I will definitely be watching this stream as well. The Endurance League races are always well organized and have great racing. Can't wait to see how this one turns out.

Kudos to you guys for pushing the limits and really making a virtual league that has the class and drama of a real league.

Sorry, Aly, no I can't. And even if I could I probably wouldn't be allowed to.

Ok. See you tonight (well actually we don't see us but you know what I mean )

Edit: Will there be any downloadable Video of the Stream after the Race?

The stream for the second qualification is running now.

Ooh, in german.

Technical difficulties here .
From Winamp: sound ok, but scrambled/blurry video; from Zuschauen mit ActiveX-Plugin (Nur Microsoft Internet Explorer) no LFS, only a music show or something...

Edit: Messed with options, now ok; Removed Allow hardware video overlay from Video options

I have a technical question ...

I want to watch the race, with winamp, but it isnt shows the video. I can hear, the voice (but its german ... :S).
Winamp can recognize the video's data (NSV:445kpbs, VP62 384x256@25fps ~ 384 kpbs), but nothing.
As I know, NSV is a special nullsoft codec, so can't be the codec miss.

Please help me

I think this fixed it:

Edit: Messed with options, now ok; Removed Allow hardware video overlay from Video options

The starting grid for tomorrow.

Nothing changed. I tried every hardware settings, but nothing.
(Only I can see a Nullsoft icon, under this, a progressbar. The bar, is full, so its not buffering... So i don't have purple window, and others like this ... )

Other fact. I tried some Online TV from winamp's homepage, and its correct.
(I asked one of my friend, and he have same problem)
Maybe some problem with the broadcast?
