Theoretically, yes, i imagine there would be a program out there able to capture any video streamed onto your computer. There is no such feature on livestream though, sorry.

Background sound is very faint now. But it never really bothered me before.

Congratulations to 5D =)

Can't stop watching those videos. They explain how to play Go in a very plain, clear and understandable way and at the same time those live games are very entertaining.

One of the best teaching materials I've seen. Thanks, Josh!!

I agree with the enthusiasm for your "train-of-thought" game videos. It's very informative to us weaker players. For me, it helps on a couple levels. First, it's interesting to see how a 5D player can see tactical situations quickly and accurately, where I would be hesitant and often wrong. Second, I really like hearing the general thinking in the fuseki. You did this in the latest game -- talking about going for influence, what you care about and don't care about, etc. This is all stuff that I know about, but it's very hard for me to put into practice. And, of course, as the game unfolds, I am comparing my own thinking to yours -- what's good/bad, what's important and not, etc.

Anyway, thanks for the game videos. Any that you do, I will appreciate.

Thanks, I'll try and get it up to my normal 7d rating but i doubt I'll be able to. I get a bit distracted while I'm discussing the game.

Good to know! I'll try and go into detail with this when i begin the 5dan series.

Well then, don't hesitate to let me know what you think, especially if you feel there's something missing that you liked from Henrik's videos. Aside from the chess~



Finally got around to watching a few of your videos (the first two against 4D opponents) and I think they're great! I'll definitely be watching a lot more of your past videos and looking for new ones in the near future. Keep up the good work... this is a great service to the Go community!

Glad you're enjoying them. Speaking of the future... I think after the 'mygames' series makes its way up to 6dan on worldbaduk (again, i'll try for 7 but the distraction might be a bit much since I'm not 8d there), then I may start again on tygem, then kgs, and maybe igs. Not sure igs though, games there tend to be a bit long.

I figure it might be a fun way to keep it going since you guys seem to enjoy them, as well as get a bit of a comparison going between servers.

I watched a couple of the games so far and it has been very helpful, even to a goban larva like me. I do get more than I thought I would out of your comments and a lot of things that I've been reading are beginning to make a little sense now. Seeing a game in action and hearing your comments as to the why you are thinking about a particular move or series helps bring a lot of the problem solving and reading together.

Thanks for this. Can't wait to check out one of your lectures.

As pointed out here , I have begun my dan series on tygem. Now, this doesn't mean I'm finished with wbaduk. I am still going to play the 6dans and, hopefully, 7dans to finish out the series on that server. I am just beginning the tygem series as those low dans make for easier and more relaxed games when I'm in that particular mood.

Another change I'm soon going to have to implement is an archive of older games. Livestream gives me 10GB of free storage. I'm at 8.8 at the time of this post. Some alternatives for older games/lectures are ustream (a livestream like site that, as far as i can tell, does not have such a limit) and vimeo (youtube like site that doesnt limit video to 10:59). I'll keep you updated on which option i decide to run with.

Hope you guys continue to enjoy the videos and, if you have any requests, don't hesitate to speak up!

What about Google Video. It seems there are more longer videos there; although maybe since Google == YouTube, it's no longer the case? Anyway, just a thought. Don't mind me.

And again -- I'm greatly enjoying your videos. Almost makes me want to be a dan player! :)

I'm fairly certain google video is now just a search engine for video around the web.

I think you'd violate vimeo's no video games policy but I'm not sure about that. So if you want to use vimeo you should contact them first.

Hi there,

Not sure if you caught my message on KGS or not, but if archiving is still a problem I would be happy to offer some webstorage/ftp space on my Go website (in sig), but it sounds like you might have an alternative already.

Anyway, thanks again for making the videos, they are very helpful.

Thanks for the offer but, yes, i think i found a solution to my problem.


Update: Vimeo is indeed not an option as they classify such activities as video games which are not allowed.

At the risk of shamelessly bumping my own thread, I thought I'd make mention that the 6dan series on wbaduk has begun.

/I should really just create a twitter account for updates.

It's as shameless as helping a kitten from a tree.
Since so many people enjoy your lectures, it's A-OK!

Due to storage limitations on livestream, as well as those who cannot stream livestream due to bandwith problems, i've gone ahead and uploaded one of my lectures here http://www.megaupload.com/?d=HXKLYB18 for download. In the future i plan on creating a website to archive all past lectures in a similar fashion...just as soon as i learn how to do that.
