RUSH: We built the glitches in for version 1.0 so we could show improvement real fast. Yeah, it\u2019s smart marketing. You put glitches in there and fix \u2019em, and then you go to version 1.1. He-he-he-he-he. <\/p>\n

<\/a>Hey, folks, it\u2019s Rush Limbaugh, and this the Excellence in Broadcasting Network, and this is our last program — well, mine — of the year. And so we\u2019re gonna do Open Line Friday on Tuesday today. Snerdley is doing two hours and you\u2019re gonna catch a plane? Yeah. Snerdley\u2019s gonna go up to New York, is gonna screen for Steyn tomorrow up in New York. H.R. will be doing the last hour of screening today, but it\u2019s Open Line Friday on Tuesday. Telephone number is 800-282-2882. And the e-mail address, ElRushbo@eibnet.com. <\/p>\n

I\u2019ve been wanting to tell you about this for the last couple of weeks, but we weren\u2019t ready to release it because it was perfect and you never want to release anything perfect so we had to build in a couple glitches, but our iPhone app is now up and running and free for all of you who are subscribers at Rush 24\/7. It\u2019s in the Apple app store, the iPhone app store under Rush Limbaugh, and right now you can live stream today\u2019s Dittocam, any live stream during the program, stream it right to your iPhone or your iPad. Now, here\u2019s the glitch. Right now it\u2019s just an iPhone app but we have built in retina code so if you use it on your iPad hit the 2X button after the video starts and it will expand to fill the iPad screen without any loss of resolution on the video that\u2019s streamed. There will be some loss of resolution on the graphics, but you\u2019re not getting this for the graphics, you\u2019re getting this for the audio and the video. And the 2X button, this is the glitch, the 2X button — we built this in — the 2X button will not work until after you start the video. <\/p>\n

This is on your iPad. If you sit there and punch that 2X button and nothing happens like I did, they said, ‘Yeah, well, we built that in so we have something we can improve pretty quick, version 1.1.\u2019 So it\u2019s not 24\/7, it\u2019s not Dittocam, it\u2019s just listed at Rush Limbaugh in the app store. It\u2019s up and running and it\u2019s our first version. It is designed exclusively for the Rush 24\/7 subscriber. It is free to everybody, but if you\u2019re not a subscriber it won\u2019t do you any good. You won\u2019t be able to get any content on it. You have to be a subscriber. Those who already are subscribers or those waiting for this compelling reason to become one, here\u2019s what the app features. You can watch the program live on the Dittocam from your iPhone or iPad. Remember, if you do it on the iPad, hit the 2X button after the video stream starts and it will expand. You\u2019ll be able to see the Morning Update every day that it is provided in the morning. Actually, the Morning Update goes up 30 minutes, 45 minutes after the program. It\u2019s the morning radio commentary that airs on all of our radio stations, but we do it in video as well, and that will be viewable on the app.<\/p>\n

You\u2019ll be able to see a transcript of each program so that the words will live on not in ether, but you\u2019ll be able to actually read the wisdom that you have heard on this program. You will be able to see the program on a delayed and archived basis in a video feed available, meaning all the past Morning Updates, all of the past radio programs. There are a lot of other video features, such as we got a couple of Haney Project promos that are up, some of my TV show audio from back in the nineties, my appearance with Tim Russert and Tom Brokaw on election night coverage in 2002, and this also has a list of all of our stations, all of our affiliates constantly updated, so if you\u2019re traveling from home and looking for a different EIB affiliate, the app will have that for you, and you can also e-mail me with the special Rush 24\/7 e-mail access. Every listener can download the app now, become a member of Rush 24\/7 once the app is downloaded, become a member from the app, or you can do it at Rush 24\/7 on our website on the computer. <\/p>\n

It looks good. We put it through its paces last night. That\u2019s how I discovered the built-in glitch, basically the 2X glitch. There also are a couple of times, depending on what video source you hit, you\u2019ll get a dialogue box message saying that the network is busy or some such thing. That is also a glitch that we\u2019re working on. We monitor this thing constantly. We\u2019ll be taking care of these little things, like I say version 1.0, and we\u2019ve been hustling. We wanted to get this thing out before the election, and we\u2019ve never had any problem streaming the video, we haven\u2019t had any problem with the mechanics of it, the challenge for us was to have the app properly recognize subscribers and we have a bunch different kinds, we\u2019ve got monthly, we have yearly, we have multi-yearly, and so forth and to have the app be able to properly identify every subscriber was a lot of code, and that\u2019s what took the time. The actual code to distribute the video was challenging because you can\u2019t use Flash. But it\u2019s done. <\/p>\n

So it\u2019s available for one and all, and I\u2019ve been excited about this because people have been e-mailing me ever since the iPad came out, ‘When can I get the Dittocam on the iPad?\u2019 Well, the answer\u2019s today. And Snerdley\u2019s in there watching the program, what is it, about a 30-second delay would you guess? He\u2019s watching the program stream live on his iPhone and it does look good, it\u2019s high definition. It\u2019s optimized for the iPhone retina display, we make sure that when you go 2X on the iPad that the video quality doesn\u2019t lose a thing. It\u2019s high definition all the way around. So now you\u2019re not tied to your computer, and you\u2019re not tied to your iPod. You can take your iPhone, your iPad wherever you are, listen to the program live, listen to it or watch it, what have you. So I guess I\u2019m kind of committing now to using the Dittocam every day since we\u2019ve done this. Well, there\u2019s a price to pay for virtually everything. Now, the app is free, folks. It\u2019s a Christmas present. You\u2019ll be able to do everything on your iPhone and iPad that you can do on the computer right there in the palm of your hand. We\u2019re very excited to have it. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
