Revisiting the whole live video thing due to stumbling across veetle.com. It
seems a little too good to be true, free high quality live streaming at SD
or HD with no ads and no bandwidth limits. Anyone used it? Experiences?
Anything?

David,Richard,
Thanks for all the advice.
Yes, it's only me doing all the filming and sound. And yes, I do have a
wireless mic system (German brand). It's omnidirectional so I don't think
it's suitable for filming outside. That's why I need a boom pole to
somehow
solve the outside filming situations.
Is the wind screen (fluffy one) needed any time during filming outside or
more when it's really windy? My mic has a black standard one that came
with
it so wonder if it's not going to be enough. It's usually not windy where
I
live :)
Thanks again.

Can anybody please recommend a good quality (not too pricey please)
boom
pole for a one person team?
I don't understand what a one person team is. A team, by definition
seems to be a minimum of two.
I have an Audio-Technica AT875R shot gun mic which I'll be using for
my
videofilmings and would like a boom pole to go with it. Holding a
pole
myself is not an option.
A boom pole holder may work.

but only for a subject that is not moving about.
Please give me some guidance what features to look for in a pole,
where
and what best to purchase, etc.
Some poles have the mic cable built-in, and of course the length
varies.
You can always go with the Home Depot / Lowes extendable paint pole.
But
you
will need to purchase an attachment to convert the end to hold the mic.

and, of course, this also requires you to run the mic cable the length
of
the pole.
If you are shooting outdoors you will definitely need a windscreen. The
foam
type may work well enough, or it may not. Better is the furry or
dead
cat type of windscreen. Even better is a blimp type with a furry
cover.
If you have a person to hold the mic/boom pole be sure that they have
headphones and can actually *hear* the audio from the mic. Otherwise
they
won't know if they are holding the mic / pole properly. This may be a
long
cable running out of the camcorder to the person, or .. you can do
double
system sound and record to a high quality digital recorder. In that
case
the recorder can be carried by the boom pole operator and and there is
less
chance of someone tripping on a long cable from the camera. You will
need
to
sync-up the sound in editing, but it's not as hard as you might think.
