Very strange. We did have a problem with UStream initially. I had started streaming via a mobile device as a test, but it failed when I tried to switch to the computer. I think that once the mobile stream connection timed out, the streaming started to work from the other computer.
Therefore, for the first few minutes, streaming wasn't working. Did you try reloading once we were well into the seminar?
