So on Friday (re: tomorrow), The Adelaide Club is hosting a boxing match at 6pm. I even got to design a tattoo for Blair Lyon’s back.
As part of the Cambridge Cares for Kids program, a portion of the proceeds will be donated to both Urban Squash Toronto and Variety Village.
I cannot wait to try out the YouTube live events feature this Friday. See you there!
Hello. This is a great article. What settings do I choose once I import the xml to the tricaster? Specifically to the left area of the window where I need to choose my “Streaming Profile”. Thanks!!!
Hi Victor! Thanks for you comment. I click the gear next to stream, then on the interface that pops up I press “import settings” and select the XML, then press OK! Hope that helps!
