4:27pm........For the past few days at Delta 2 we have found it takes several minutes to load each of the cams. We had a fledge this morning and another one about to happen. This problem was not here before.......anything changed?
Good question, Jean - I haven't noticed that at Surrey (though I also have not been in on the cams as much as you and the other Delta zoomers are) - and I'll ask Ken. I'd also suggest having those affected do a speed test (https://fast.com/ is one that's out there, and if you're a zoomer click the "more info" link to check your upload speed, which is how fast your instructions get to the cam) - it's possible that with the demands on the grid from the current high temperatures across North America, something other than us has slowed down.

Added - I just tried logging into three cams - Delta East took over a minute; White Rock CU and Surrey North took about 6 seconds each. I closed out of each cam immediately, and hope I didn't disrupt what the zoomers were doing - but it does show that there seems to be an issue at Delta.

Thanks, Bev -

Good Afternoon! We seem to have lost the sound on the Delta 2 W Embedded cam. I didn't realize it as I was zooming because I use the sound on the zoomer screen. We have no sound on the E Embedded Cam but that has been like that all season.

Thanks, Sue - I'll ask Ken to check the sound on the West embedded cam. We had to turn off the sound on the East embedded cam because the microphone is aimed towards the house and was picking up radio or television audio, and streaming that would lead to our channel being taken down by YouTube, even though it's not intentional on our part. The mic for the West cam is pointed in a different direction, so it should have sound.

PS to the Delta team - when we start making our list for maintenance day, please help me remember to include adjusting the mic for the East cam so it's focused differently, if that's at all possible. Thanks!

Cam check -

Still no sound at Delta West
French Creek is frozen at 23:47 last night

I logged into the Delta cams quickly, one at a time, and both opened in 6-8 seconds, which makes me think it's an internet issue and/or the incredible heat at the site that makes them so slow to open during the day.

I'll send a message to Ken, but it may be a while before he sees it.

4:59 am at Delta both embedded cams went offline. Also noticed the west embedded cam has been pixelating.

All embedded cams down - likely either power outage at Ken's or a YouTube issue.

Sending text to Ken.

I just heard back from Ken - his server rebooted itself, which stopped all the streams. He's in the process of restarting them, so all the cams should be back up soon.

6:31 am
Delta and French Creek cams are back

(It takes a couple of minutes for each cam to refresh or re-enter the data for each cam in the software that translates the data from the format the cam sends to the format YouTube needs, and then refresh the link from that software to YouTube.)

6:35 am
Surrey Cams are back
White Rock CU is back


6:44 am
Ken just reported that all cams are back (except Harrison South, which is waiting for a miracle or a site visit, whichever comes first).

The sound should also be back on Delta West.

Thanks, Ken!
