Were you using cellular or WiFi? Just wondering how much cellular data broadcasting a 90 minute game would consume.

The customers of ours that are doing it use either Periscope from their cell phone or livestream with a GoPro. One guy actually built his own, but I don't have any details to offer on that yet. But yes, data usage is costly. Unless there is WiFi or you have unlimited data, it will cost you some change.

JAD- I have not tried to do it myself. However, I will catch some games live on www.yourgamecam.com. I have often wondered about contacting them to see what the cost is to set up some cameras on our LL fields for family across the country to watch.
