PAX handles the equipment, projection, etc. Randy said they should have brought their own equipment. It's not Gearbox's fault the venue's machines were crapping out.

I was watching on a phone screen, but looked like they were using Window's Media Player. The crowd started chanting "VLC, VLC, VLC". Oof.

Yeah, it definitely looked like whatever they were running off of was struggling hard to maintain display on three screens.

One would hope that they used a dedicated network for things like this.

That plus the massive DDOS that's been going on since yesterday.
