ohlol; for some reason my computer refuses to install livestream again
it keeps telling me that "another installation is taking place, finish that one first"
but there's absolutely nothing.

so I thought I'd try ustream but I can't figure out how to get it to broadcast just my screen instead of my stupid webcam like you can in livestream. HRMG
help?

BTW TODAY IS A SNOW DAY YESS

It is annoying when the procaster starts every time you turn the computer on, but it's possible to turn that off.

Anyway, =Critical-Error mentioned ManyCam, and that's what I would use to broadcast my screen while using Ustream. You just have to select ManyCam as your webcam in the Ustream broadcast menu, and then have ManyCam open while broadcasting, and select your desktop as your source...XD. That kinda sounds confusing but it worked good enough for me!

hm... I can't seem to open manycam after I install it? XD;
Nothing pops up and when I select it for ustream it just shows my regular webcam 8I
what version of manycam did you have?

XD That sounds strange. I have ManyCam 2.4. Though when I first open the program, it just puts an icon in the tray, which I then have to double click to open. Maybe see if that's what's happening? I think manycam has to be open and running for Ustream to see it. I forget D:

I used ManyCam, an online webcam, to do livestreamin'.. I dunno how that would help but yeah XD

well, you have to instal procester for it to feed your screen XD
thats what I used before but I uninstalled it when people weren't interested anymore and it was annoying because it would start up every time I opened my computer and it took foreverrr to start up and go away
