IRL Streaming Data Costs Revealed

[@AddWinterSlowly]

Can you provide a link to the cloud server service you use? Also, can you talk more about setting it up with the "be right back" screen, etc.?

[@DavidFosterVlog]

It's SuperStreamingSystems

[@EXOOfficial]

I ran into the data cap issue and found the same data you did. This should be more wll known.

[@DianaGladney]

Wow! Quality costs, that's for sure.

[@DavidFosterVlog]

Diana Gladney - EntreWoman TV it sure does lol.

[@OREBROO]

I pay 20€/month in Finland for truly unlimited 4G, no data or speed cap.

*Jealousy intensifies*

[@eventhori3on]

Yeah I’m in the UK.. £20 (22euros) ($26) for 80gb full speed 4G per month!

[@DavidFosterVlog]

Damn. Fuck America. 😂

[@txforger]

Bro here in India i use fibernet i get like 200 mbps unlimited data @ $20/month

[@prolinnovaist4239]

@@DavidFosterVlog data limits on 4g is as assbackwards as data limits back on adsl and fibre internet were 20 years ago. It's just a scam by isps to gouge customers this is not a limited resource at all.

It's 2020 and i'm just seeing this. How do you guys feel about signal boosters from our carriers? I'm starting off and I'm an IRL virgin and i'm going to have to work my way up but I'd at least like to have close to good quality streams to start off with. I'm thinking of getting a signal booster from Verizon.

[@DavidFosterVlog]

A signal booster isn't going to help if you're walking around, unfortunately. It's just an expensive game to play, so you just have to be prepared.

[@THE.MICHAEL.ANGELO]

@@DavidFosterVlog got it. Makes sense! One more question, do you think Hotspot transmitters will be enough to keep a good signal? Verizon has a hotspot box that they sell that provides Internet fast enough (supposedly), for being on the road.

[@DavidFosterVlog]

M1CHA3L ANG3LO the only way you could possibly do that with a chance of a good stream is to find a place with great signal, and don't move. You'd not want to walk around with that.

[@THE.MICHAEL.ANGELO]

@@DavidFosterVlog THANK YOU AGAIN! In other words. Save up! LOLOL!

[@binburr]

You actually explained it very well .. any twitch addict viewer will understand all what you said ..

[@Gintokikreuz1]

How does the cloud server keep up the stream?

[@DavidFosterVlog]

GintokiKreuz1 I'm not quite sure what you mean. Can you elaborate?

[@Gintokikreuz1]

@@DavidFosterVlog 5:30 Yeah u said that if ur internet slows down that it cuts to a "Be right back" also when u turn off the camera. That the Cloud server keeps the stream up. So my question is How does the Cloud server keep up the stream?

[@DavidFosterVlog]

GintokiKreuz1 because the cloud server is at our home running off of our 100/100 internet. We're sending a signal from our backpack to our home. If the mobile signal drops below 800kbps the server kicks on the brb screen/video.

[@DJCryonic]

Not bad. I expected a rented V-server or worse a dedicated server with beefy hardware to do the encoding :-)

[@RichDanby]

@@DavidFosterVlog Could you give some more details of the software you are using to monitor and maintain the stream on the server? Thanks.

[@kinemasteredits8444]

Thanks for the help guys

[@Ohm10-8]

Great job. Just one question. I just got a Samsung A50. Can I do a IRL stream using Twitch with just the phone itself? I know the audio and video quality wont be the best i'm just getting started. Thank's!!!! ")

[@xlite4999]

The A50 overheats :(

[@Ohm10-8]

@@xlite4999 thank you. Could you tell me what all I need to do the simplest stream? I have searched everywhere and I cant find all what I need to just do a single, or double phone stream. If that makes any sense? Or have a link that has any info or videos? Thanks again!!!!

[@xlite4999]

Ohm my friends use a S10e or Pixel 3. One phone should be fine. I don’t understand the rest.

[@Ohm10-8]

@@xlite4999 "thanks for the reply. Besides the phone I think you need a bigger battery pack, iv'e seen something that looks like a portable router..?..something that picks up the internet?? Thanks for the help!!! ")

[@xlite4999]

Ohm those portable routers are known as MiFi devices and you don’t need it. Streaming with just a phone doesn’t require a large power bank and the only time I’ve needed a large power bank is when I did a 32hr stream at LTX19. One 20,000mah powerbank will last you awhile doing IRL.

[@GameOverFiles]

Unlimited IRL vanished. Any alternatives?

[@DavidFosterVlog]

Yeah, it seems they did. I can't get any good info or find other providers. It sucks!

[@GameOverFiles]

@@DavidFosterVlog I went with Live U Solo Connect

[@randomuserame]

@@GameOverFiles also kind of expensive

[@D_S_Y_C]

@@DavidFosterVlog what did you end up going with instead?

[@trondlarsgard6867]

on my service, there is something called a boost. it's about 4$ to use unlimited data for 3 hours. 11$ for 12 hours. it's like made for this

[@bob_kat7160]

Tron Dee What carrier do you use because I need it

[@kyelanthony2011]

@@bob_kat7160 lol @ no answer....

[@DavidFosterVlog]

No...that would not work. You would be broke. At least I don't think. I would be curious to know. But you also aren't going to get priority data...meaning in a congested area, you get priority over other sims in the area...

[@MarcRitzMD]

At what price point will you just be running around with an ethernet cable from your home....Might as well hire some poor blob to carry the miles of cable around.

[@DavidFosterVlog]

Marc Ritz that's what we do when we're in Vegas. We have a 35,000 foot Ethernet cable that 12 people carry for us. It's hard when you go from casino to casino because it keeps all the doors from closing. 😬

[@MarcRitzMD]

@@DavidFosterVlog That would around 1200 lbs which makes for convenient math. Around 100 lbs to carry for each of your helpers. Seems reasonable

[@SteveVickAK]

Hope you are getting your moneys worth. That is ridiculous.

[@GypsyFly]

You should also purchase good quality tooth paste.

[@DavidFosterVlog]

I did...I used your Moms on the way out.
