Just putting this out there...but I have 0 issues with SMB. I know a lot of girls hate on it, but it's worked flawlessly for me from day 1. My placement has gone up from using SMB and I get great stats while using it. Also on page 1.

Oh and more 1 star ratings for not obliging guys who jump in pvt demanding to see your asshole and more guys trying to turn on their cams and show their dicks to you before they get charged.
I have an automated message for those guys who Hop in private with hopes of a free peeper window show that says something like "of course babe! I'm excited to get naughty for you. relax a little and let's enjoy our time together" ... they get the hint and either leave or they stop rushing me and stay for a full show.

I wait until 1 second left before I reject it. Then I say "Oh sorry baby. It froze try it one more time. I can't wait to see that dick" And right at the last second I reject it all over again. I feel so vindicated when I get their money.}:D

Is there a way to stop clients from sending cam in private? I don't want fights between private members, and they've gotten frustrated because someone else is already using the cam feature. I tell them only cam2cam in exclusive, but I'm scared of negative feedback.
Also, how do you guys stop the 40 second peepers?

If someone leaves you negative feedback for something you don't do (like cam2cam in private), then you can message support and have that removed. Just make sure it's clear on your profile.

Does anyone know why FPS stays stuck at 15? I'd message support but I feel I'd have better luck shooting a bullseye with my imaginary breast milk. Lol. Also, any of you experience this?
edit: it keeps going from 15 back up to normal back to 15 again.

Yes, everything here. Also, I'm one of those girls who prefers exclusive b/c private wasn't improving my hourly, so I charge way more for pvt than excl. That solved the peeper problem. Made this change in 2013 and I've never received negative feedback because of it.

I have a really great customer message me, asking if I had any sites that I'm on where he can buy my videos, etc. He said he wants to help me out ( outside of SM).
He must know about SM's low model payout .
I can't redirect him to my clips store, or even tell him to Google my name, without risking getting into trouble.
Damn it Streamate!! Grrr!

I always tell them straight up "I'm not allowed to mention any other sites I'm on, but I'm sure you'll be able to find them on your own. You can also join my personal site by using the link in my profile." (I have my modelcentro site linked to my SM account.) Technically that's not breaking any rules. And that's just a risk I'm willing to take...if they suspend me for that then fuck 'em. 5 years of doing that and so far so good. Most guys know the popular clip sites...and they are more than welcome to join my modelcentro site if they want my videos bad enough.

Just a heads up, I've been noticing lots of rooms with black screens and spinning blue circles. Stupid me did the SM shitcaster update and BOOM.. after 10 min no log ins or log outs so I check and I had the black screen with spinning blue circle. SM is laughable at this point

I should know the answer to this but can't find it anywhere - when a guy uses the phone feature on Streamate and he is in Europe, does it cost him anything to use the feature?
I tried to convince a guy from Europe and he said he was thinking it would charge him somehow but if it calls his phone I can't see how it would cost him to answer. It works in Europe, right?

My resolution keeps lowering to something like 640x360. Happening on all my computers and my internet tests fine.... My placement went all wacko for a bit and I ended up getting like 30 people in my room at once but my resolution lowered even more than that. Strange. My placement is back to good but now my res isn't...

You are right, it looks like the only charges he would incur is if he carrier charged him per min rates. Otherwise, it is the same as accepting a call from anyone. This is what I found

That's exactly what i wrote about in the SM Vent thread, after the update i had ins and outs but nobody talked so i looked up both from phone and browser and there was no picture but the spinning circle so nobody was able to see me. I reset my session and somehow i got my video to load to members (to some at least) but it was a quiet night except i had one of my regulars taking me exclusive 2 times in a row as he said my video froze. Crazy and resource eating this new version!
I unchecked auto adjust on my smsc and then adjusted my brightness and was able to get 24 fps yest. Today had it working this morning and now fuck me- logged out and back in and CHANGED NOTHING and it's back to 15 fps where I don't really make any $$. W.T.F. Can't catch a fucking break.

Didn't Streamate release this back in January of this year?
New Video Gallery Tool and Private Video Sharing
We're very excited to release a big update to your video gallery, including a redesign of your video manager! On your performer dashboard, click on "Videos" under the "Galleries" section to check it out.
Until now, your video gallery has let you upload non-explicit videos to your profile for your visitors to watch. With this update, we’re adding private videos that can only be watched by members you select! These videos can contain explicit content.
When you upload a new video, you’ll be able to mark it as “Explicit” or “Non-Explicit.” You’ll still have the option to add non-explicit videos to your profile page. You can share approved videos with members who have spent with you in the past two weeks. You’ll be able to select up to 100 members and can send 100 videos at a time, so it’s fast and easy to send videos to your top spenders, your favorite regulars, or everyone who was in a specific show. Members will get a mailbox message that you shared a video and can visit the "My Videos" section of their account to watch it.
We think you’ll like this new tool. It’s easy to use, so follow the on-screen steps and make sure your videos meet all requirements before you upload. You can read more about the new tool on the Photo and Video Galleries help page.
We talked about it. I wrote about it. I'm so confused?
^^^ I never till now had the option to upload videos on SM so if some of you had it, i did not so i assume it was available to certain models depending on who knows what criteria.

They're probably naming the files the same so they're overwrighting themselves when u download the new one.

Was going to say the same thing. When I was using the SMB I downloaded a new version and when I installed it, it overwrote the one I had installed as well as the copy I had in the download folder. When you guys download newer versions you could try naming the old version to something different, put it in a different file, rename it and put it in a different file or save it to a memory card/usb stick/external hard drive. Its still possible for it to be overwritten even if you rename it or put it in a separate folder so I personally would save it to a separate unit and just copy it onto your computer when you need to install it that way there's no possibly way for SM to overwrite it.

Im trying to do this. Been recording my shows,especially gold shows, to try it out before I start offering them to clients but I cannot get the files to open and play for me using windows media player. Can I ask what your using? I really want to be able to edit them down as well.
Also I am wondering what to charge. I was thinking like for a guy to have say a goldshow recording I could offer it to anyone who tips like $25 or I could offer it one guy who tips $100 or something like that.
I see a lot of potential with this though. I really like it. Have you upsold anything yet?

If I remember correctly, files recorded using SMB save in a weird format. If you convert them first to something like mp4 you should then be able to play/edit them in whatever software you usually use.

anyone know why my fps keeps going all over the place? I have plenty of lighting (recessed lighting, big 40 inch tv behind my laptop, light from ceiling fan behind me) gaming laptop with 16 ram and my cam is a logitech 920c. I'm using the smbroadcaster. My fps keeps going up and down...all over the place. One minute it will be 30, then 15, or 24. When I 1st started using the smbroadcaster tho, I would see it go to 99 but I havent seen it at 99 in a very long time:(
It's affecting my rankings tho because I use to be in the middle of the 1st page too but now I am always at the bottom of the 1st page and sometime on the second page:(
Also, I don't know if this has anything to do with what's going on but my bitrate will not go over 1940? It was above 2000 at one time but then it fell back down and now stays right around 1940?
