We will change the Kukupo system as follows.

・Ended giving Kukupo when viewing kukuluLIVE FLV version in high quality mode (from 2016/09/26)
High quality mode is no longer needed as the system continues to improve so that all viewings can be processed in high speed high quality mode.
The function itself will remain as a replacement in case of system failure, but the granting of Kukupo will be discontinued.

・Set an expiration date for Kukupo (from 2016/10/01)
If you have not logged in to your kukulu ID once in the past year, your Kukupo will be 0.

・Improved the Kukupo and gift exchange function (from 2016/10/01)
We have added attractive new gifts and reduced the prices of conventional items.

・Added a function that allows you to search for and view past recordings of the broadcaster you are watching.
You can view a list of broadcasters' timeshifts in the app while watching live/timeshift.



・You can now add the broadcast you are watching to your My List. (Only while logged in)
Streaming can be added to My List from the setting screen while watching Live/Timeshift.

・Distributors who have registered for new broadcast notifications are now added to favorite distributors at the same time. (Only while logged in)
In the "Favorite Distributor" list when displaying the time shift, those registered in the new broadcast notification will also be displayed.

・Added a function to adjust the size of characters and images.
Scaling is automatically adjusted according to the DPI of the device, but manual adjustment is now possible if you want to make the characters larger or smaller.
You can change it from the setting screen while watching Live/Timeshift. It is necessary to reopen the screen for the changes to be reflected.


-Fixed an issue where time-shifting of recently finished WMV distributions could not be viewed only when high quality was set.

Known defects:
・In the iOS version, the initial buffer charge of Time Shift rarely ends <br>You can watch it by reopening the viewing screen. It will be fixed in the next update.

These features are supported from version "1.8.4" onwards.

・Problem where drawing comments cannot be made <br>There was a problem where the image was not displayed even if drawing comments were made, but this was fixed around 21:00 on 03/28.
Posts that could not be displayed due to an error have been repaired and can be viewed or reposted by following the steps below.


・An issue where voice comments could not be made <br>The issue where server-side encoding failed was fixed around 03/25 00:00.

・Problem that distribution list of My Page is not displayed properly.
Fixed around 21:40 on 03/27.

The following specifications have been changed.

・The viewing function on the smartphone web version has been abolished. <br>It is not used much, and it is difficult to use high-speed, high-quality images and cluster servers, which increases the maintenance burden.
It was decided that it was unnecessary and abolished recently that the high functionality of the application has been completed.
From now on, please use the app version.

In order to improve the convenience of viewers, all distributions and time shifts can be viewed as FLV versions.
The following viewing, which previously required the WMV version or was not available, is now possible in the same way as the FLV version.

・ Viewing old WMV version time shift with smartphone app (server side re-encoding)
Compatible with app version 1.8.1 or later.

・Watching old WMV version time shift (server side re-encoding)
IE requires a WMP plug-in, and it was not possible to view it on Chrome, etc., but now it can be viewed in all environments.

・Watching WMV version live broadcast on IE (server side real-time encoding)
IE required a WMP plug-in, but now you can view it with Flash.
Chrome etc. have been able to be viewed with Flash for a long time.

Streamers can still use the WMV version with encoders such as WME, and there will be no impact whatsoever.
Streamers can continue to use legacy tools and systems;
It is a system that allows viewers to watch in a new and highly convenient environment, making everyone happy.

・High-speed high-definition mode is now available <br>In addition to mobile mode, high-speed high-definition mode is now available.
Open the setting screen while watching and turn on "High speed high quality mode".

Please turn on "high quality mode" from the setting screen in time shift.

Mobile mode is about 500Kbps, but (high-speed) high-definition mode requires a downlink bandwidth of 1-2Mbps.



- Support for posting voice comments
You can post a voice comment from the icon in the comment section only when you are logged in with your kukuluID.
You can record up to 30 seconds from your smartphone's microphone, so you can post other than voice.



・Improved behavior when posting SS comments (image comments) .

・Improved mobile mode <br>It will automatically connect to a free mirror server,
You can now use it comfortably even when the main server is busy.

・Improved the specifications of high-speed high-quality mode (during demonstration experiment)
We have clustered the high-speed, high-resolution mode server systems, which previously were fixedly mirrored, and introduced a mechanism for automatic control.
By clustering and moving resources (costs) in unit time, we prevent shortages during busy times.
Furthermore, by sharing data within a cluster, the burden on the distribution source remains the same even when resources are significantly increased.
Similar to P2P high-quality mode, viewing can be done by virtually any number of people.

By recording and predicting the number of connections, the cluster increases server resources before they become full, and decreases them when they are overloaded.



This mechanism greatly reduces the chance of the high-speed, high-quality mode becoming full (except when there is a sudden increase).
A low-latency, high-quality mode is always available for most viewers.

・High-speed high-quality mode is now available in the Android app version. <br>With the latest version 1.7.0, high-speed high-quality mode is now available in addition to mobile mode.
While watching, open the settings screen and turn on "High speed high quality mode". (Only available for live viewing)

Mobile mode is about 500Kbps, but high-speed high-quality mode requires a download bandwidth of 1 to 2Mbps.

If some push connection destinations are assigned in the FLV version,
There was a problem that the push connection could not be made normally (data transfer could not be performed).

This issue is due to a software bug on the server side and is now fixed.
We apologize for the inconvenience.

2016, 03/05 00:30 (3244day) Posted | 3244day Updated

In the following viewing modes, viewing was becoming difficult due to a lack of bandwidth, but this was resolved around midnight today.

・Mobile viewing mode ・Low image quality mode (Delivery was buffered even when distributed from Tokyo DC due to lack of bandwidth at the import source.)
・Time shift viewing (all modes)
・Time-shift recording of live broadcasts (time-shift recording during busy hours from 2016/03/01 to 03/04 may not be recorded properly)


You can use it comfortably now.
We apologize for the inconvenience.

・About the issue where comments are not updated on the smartphone app version
From February 2, 2016, there was an issue where comment updates were not displayed on the smartphone app version.
Fixed this. No app updates required.

・Problem where you cannot watch the WMV version
It was corrected on 2016/02/18.

2016, 02/13 23:56 (3264day) Posted | 3264day Updated

kukuluLIVE's low image quality mode has been improved, and a server within Tokyo IDC is now in charge of processing, similar to the high speed high image quality mode.
Because it can be viewed without going through the main network, which is extremely congested during busy hours, it is as stable as high-speed, high-quality and high-quality video.

The same is true for the forced low image quality mode of the WMV version.
The smartphone version will have the same specifications as before.
