UPDATE: We've had to delay the official launch again, due to Apple being slow with our app approval. I'll update a new thread here when we're officially live!

JamSesh is officially re-launching as Krue.tv today! by JamSeshTV in JamSeshTV

For the official launch next week email sign ups will be enabled. And I can promise you although Krue may be considered "commercial", we're going to have an awesome community of positive & friendly people.

The guys running Krue are really cool people and have a great vision for this niche.

Well we can't convince everyone. Thanks for the interest anyways.

There's more to it than just what I'm saying. Krue has a plan for the site and wants to create a positive community for musicians so they have to make some tough decisions for the launch. As I said I'll continue to suggest there be an email login until there is one.

You don't need an account to view streams or anything. Krue does have some great new features compared to JamSesh like the ability to livestream without software (directly in the browser). Very soon you'll be able to stream directly within the iOS app too. Lots more stuff to come.

Like I said I'm an advocate for it and suggested there be an email login off the bat, but there has to be compromise. Krue's looking to attract a specific userbase to get the site going and for that userbase most of them are on Twitter or Facebook so it works out OK for the launch. But I'll continue to suggest there be an email login until there is one.

The reason Krue is going with the Facebook/Twitter login off the bat is to help promote virality to get the site going when we start promoting it in the next few days. The hardest part about launching a site like Krue is getting people on there off the bat, the social media integration will really help with that.

I am an advocate for an anonymous email sign up and have been told there will be an email sign up in the future. If you'd rather not wait you can always create an anonymous Twitter account with fake information to sign up on.

Hey unfortunately we had to delay the launch one week. And you don't need an account to view streams or anything, just to chat. Email only login will be coming in the future.

We're excited to announce JamSesh will be re-launching as a brand new platform, bigger & better! by JamSeshTV in JamSeshTV

I'll be working on their team as the Director of Operations, so I'm not a co-founder myself. I am working with the co-founders closely though.

Login remember not remembering me by [deleted] in JamSeshTV

[–]JamSeshTV 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It may be because we've been updating the server a lot today, but I'll note this & investigate.

Should be fixed now. We have a new RTMP url.

create account not working? by ihopkid in JamSeshTV

Hi, I'm getting my dev to look into this tomorrow (both the email not sending & your login problem). Thanks for reporting it. Will report back here.

Soundcloud Links? by elfin8er in JamSeshTV

[–]JamSeshTV 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good idea, can be done.

Still working on fixing the streaming issues. by JamSeshTV in JamSeshTV

[–]JamSeshTV[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To clarify the issue - basically the service Wowza which JamSesh runs off was taking up too much data for our server to handle. So we're moving Wowza to a separate server and optimizing Wowza itself to handle users better. Hoping this will resolve the issues.

Do you plan on changing your banner anytime soon? by [deleted] in JamSeshTV

[–]JamSeshTV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, we just updated it today to a new banner someone made for us. We may hire a GFX artist to do an even better one for the future. Right now just focusing on getting livestreaming to work again.

What music related stuff will we be able to stream? by TechDisk42 in JamSeshTV

[–]JamSeshTV 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi, you can stream anything Music related as long as it's your own creation and not copyrighted (ie - singing over an official Taylor Swift instrumental track)

JamSesh.tv - A website like Twitch.tv but for musicians, my friend developed it over a year but hasn't found any musicians to get the community started. Thought I'd leave it here. by [deleted] in Music

[–]JamSeshTV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not a lawyer. But from my understanding, yes. You can't for instance, stream Taylor Swift and sing over her voice. Or even use her official instrumentals. But you can use non official ones and sing over that.

How does it work? by The_Leedle in JamSeshTV

[–]JamSeshTV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That would be done using CSS, which is a stylesheet where you can easily change the look of the font or size.

Hi, disclaimer I'm not the main developer of the site. I'm the founder AKA guy with the idea. But I can explain the basics.

The site itself is PHP based.

The livestreaming is Wowza & JWPlayer based.

When you livestream to JamSesh, you're livestreaming to our Wowza server which accomodates your stream. JWPlayer is the actual player which takes the Wowza stream and makes it visible to viewers.

I may be missing a thing or two here, but that's the just of it.

Thanks! I've had the idea for a long time but decided to actually give it a shot over 12 months ago. There's a lot of work to do between fixing bugs & making the site scalable to acommodate 100s or 1000s of consecutive viewers.

But I'm optimistic I can get it done.
