Youtube having garbage bitrate for the stream. Ustream NASA TV mirror better quality, but 30s delayed.
I concur. Benjamin has been grousing about the youtube quality recently, likely he'll be grousing about it even more next Saturday on TMRO. Really too bad, youtube should have this type of thing on lockdown.
My views are clear on SpaceX, Livestream, and SFN (Although the latter two are now paused.)
How are you determining the lag?
SpaceX.com is ahead of the others, and adding the countdown time to the time on the computer clock puts liftoff close to 2:49:.... (They just took off the countdown clock. Again)
edit: summing to 2:49:04
24 second lag between NASA TV and youtube stream, based on countdown clock.

Why would SpaceX's connection to youtube servers be worse than in the past? Very inexplicable. I hope the footage gets re-uploaded later on in reasonable quality.

That curved event list is a cool design. Not the most practical maybe, but it looks cool.

Gonna have to disagree in the very strongest possible terms.

It's an orbital display?

No, it's just a very Silicon Valley type of idea. Zero functionality.

It's quite functional, by having a rotating display they can show more information in closer density than they could otherwise, especially over an hour stream. The previous display would not have worked. Not sure what your beef here is. What is not functional?

It's one of the worst displays I've ever seen, and I see a lot of really bad ideas that hide information in web development, but we're getting off-topic.

Went outside at T-0:30 and watched it liftoff from Clearwater, FL. Bright red and moving fast north/north east quite fast.
Witnessed first stage cutoff and 2nd start up. No binoculars or camera but great view nonetheless.

Finally the camera didn't cut out right at landing.

Why barge and not land landing for the first stage?
I thought it would have enough performance for coming back to cape canaveral on this kind of payload.

What's the exact number of hours it'll take to arrival at ISS? This was probably mentioned somewhere already but I didn't immediately see it.

I liked the webcast. Must have been a lot of work to get it running so smoothly. Great done! Would have loved to see more of Ripley and the the little earth, see how they are shaking during the launch vibrations.
Also, I like the new timeline. Allows a much more readable spacing of events than a linear display.

A guess only but it's possible that they didn't want the spacecraft in close proximity to the plume of a boost-back burn.

As F9 neared MECO the expansion was quite pretty. S2 Jellyfish was simply stunning!

Don't guess (edit: bad guess)
