One would think it should be up live soon enough

Good point, unless they have 3 wider cams all together? (Does seem to be only one slot on the case though)

Looking at the picture showing the camera design with a single aperture, I'd say it was a panoramic scanning one. It may even be a real-time rather than snapshot camera - now how cool would that be!

Waiting with baited breath...

Well that would be worth the wait, if it is real time!

Keep checking here and the BBC still no joy

Didn't someone living really close to the festival have one on in previous years?

Sorry to get peoples hopes up again with another post here but I just noticed that the old link to the webcam on BBC Glasto page has disappeared

Something's happening today, folks. The BBC have just disconnected their old feed, hopefully in preparation to change to the new webcam!!

[pauladam]

just posted this stupidly on another thread (I knew there was a webcam one too

Did a wee dig on the source code of the BBC Glasto Webcam page and can see that the frame in the middle of the page points at .....

http://glastocam.external.bbc.co.uk

For those in the know about all things interwebs - you might notice that the DNS name for this doesn't exist at present...

So its either the old DNS name has stopped working, or the new one hasn't been added yet....whatever...something is happening

This page should give us the IP address as a little bit faster once they've deployed:

Don't know what any of this means but I'm excited anyway.

[kalifire]

They've plugged it in!! They haven't switched it on yet but we can see what we're getting....

EDIT: I'm not actually sure that is what we're getting. The speaker stacks and ribbon tower aren't there so that's clearly not an up-to-date image. But - it's on its way!

Oh boy oh boy oh boy!!!

Bet they're waiting for the Health and Safety certificate, or electrical checks, or, or, or,

[JayBalls]

This does mean however there is now another page I will be relentlessly refreshing

[windy_miller]

I used to use the windows desktop gadget so I had the webcam visible on my desktop all year round. Going to need a new gadget if they are changing the feed.

Bad news (sort of) - I've had another look at the website source code (anyone can do this ) - and the web address that was showing there earlier (http://glastocam.external.bbc.co.uk) has been changed to a static image i.e. the one above....

Im thinking they just aren't quite ready though, the fact its changed at all means things are happing

As you were people........
