Problem with broadcasting games via ftp

scubasteve889 · 06-28-2005, 10:05 AM

Hi I have a online league and noticed that OOTP had a live broadcast feature. I talked to a commisioner who used this feature in his league and he told me how to set it up. The webpage comes up with the game but it doesnt refresh with the new info. It says broadcasting to server in the game . . . then hit another key or click the mouse. But nothing until I manually do it myself. The commisioner said that you normally do not have to do this. Also it comes up in a black box and you cannot read it. here is one of the game links, the player links do not work because I created another league but it is doing the same in both my league and the made up league. http://sfbsl.ccibl.com/game4.html
and I had to manually update that to get those stats up there. . . can you please help me fix this . . . this feature would make my league 100 times better.

Thanks

Re the auto refresh, there are two different issues. The person running the game in OOTP (i.e. the commish) does have to click the mouse between each batter to continue.

Anyone watching the game on the webpage doesn't need to do anything -- their browser will automatically refresh.

Can't help you with the illegibility, though.

Thanks for you help Viva Los Expos . . . does anyone else know why the webpage is illegible and maybe another person's input on why the refresh doesn't work ?

Ok I tried it again . . . and i clicked and it went on to the next play every time in the game then after the play it said broadcasting to server. . . then on the webpage it didn't refresh with the current play . . it just goes to refresh and comes up with the same page. . . I really don't know what to do and I'm hoping you guys do . . . thanks

I'm trying to mess around with it myself and can't even get the broadcasted web page to load. IE comes up with file not found. Not only that, but the end of the game crashes OOTP rather than bring up the final boxscore.
