    I finally got it working but I am running out of computers. What you will see is a live feed from our place from a camera mounted on the hydro pole in front of the house. I have about 14 songs sequence to music running on 48 channels. The show runs from 5:30 pm to 12:30 am Eastern time.After the show I have Christmas Music being broadcast over a low powered FM radio station. The details for the station, 5 watt multiplexed FM transmitter on the frequency of 90.1. being feed into a home made J-pole antenna with about 5db gain. This gives me a coverage about 5 miles radius.

    Here is the link for the Vid feed, It also has a chat built in so feel free to say hi. You don't have to be log in to chat.

    Can't seem to get it to work for me (it's my computer). I don't celebrate Christmas, but was intrigued when you mentioned something about 4000 lights. Seriously?? Wow that must take so much effort and time to put up!! I can't even imagine!

    Not really. They are LED's. Draw less current than 4 flood lights.

    also, just minimize the screen if you don't want to watch, and you can just listen to the music.

    wow-it is so beautiful! You have given me ideas for next year for our house! We always forget to set up the lights before it gets cold tho so we usually have minimal stuff set up. But next year I should do more. The strands along the roof for us stay up all year now because it is so much work to take down and put up. lol Well great job!!!! Enjoyed it a whole lot and thank you so much for sharing with us!!

    I'm still working on more sequences, Takes awhile about 30 hours per song. Keep checking back to see what I have done.
    And thanks for all the kind words, If we make 1 person happy then it is all worth while.
