Peter,

Thanks for letting us know. There is indeed a problem with the streaming
links on the website. The URLs displayed on the page are correct, but they
are linking to the wrong address. This should be fixed by the time the
streamed sessions start tomorrow. Note that today's preconference sessions
are not being streamed.
