Cameras Down 5/2/2018?

Late this afternoon I stopped getting camera feeds; the last image captures are at 16:39 and now I get an "error loading media file" message for the North and Depot cameras. I've tried a couple of times over the last few hours.
Anyone else having this issue? (I'm running Safari on a Mac.)

Same here using Chrome on a PC. I also saw the same thing happen a few days ago, but it did not last as long as this time.

Took this snapshot of the Chama depot about 4:30 PM while on Chrome. Now, all video feed seems to be down from Chama, but the graphics seen on each of the camera video players remain and are hosted by BrownRice in Taos. The M3U8 notice now seen, appeared last year when Friends cut the electricity to one of the cameras, because they needed more bandwidth. The cameras will once again be "live" when BrownRice receives feed from each camera. Since Friends has a "dashboard" to control and analyze video broadcast activity, I imagine that we will hear from Jason soon. I'll put $100 in the Camera Jar when the full site is up and running again to help offset repair or replacement costs.

I'll do some investigating in a bit.

The cameras and network are up and running. Something is amiss with the stream. I've opened a ticket on the issue and BrownRice is usually very quick to respond.

BrownRice confirmed it's an issue on their end. Resolution will be forth-coming.

FWIW, I took a look at the cameras directly and it's snowing there.

Thanks Jason!! Hopefully mother nature will make up her mind and have all the snow over with by the time I arrive there towards the end of June. I would welcome cooler temps, just no more snow for a while.

Thanks for the response Jason. Better for all that the problem is with BrownRice, this is indicative that the video system you installed is sound and a special trip by you in not immediate. Confident that if it is within Jason's influence that the South camera will be available and viewed by opening day.

Snowfall on Cumbres Pass being reported by SNOTEL as increased precipitation, which is positive since the total is only about 60 percent of normal. Farming and ranching folks downstream need the water.
