That's where the problem is Terry. They'll no doubt claim it's due to substandard facilities at Championship grounds but the problem was evident during many games in the Premiership with buffering, loss of feed etc.
Couldn't watch the Partick match but I'm hearing there was no pictures. The Dunfermline match was a joke, they used the DAFC tv feed. And lots of other matches with buffering and picture loss.
It's very unprofessional.
The £6.99 also includes the live audio stream, which keeps switching off regularly and showing the holding screen error page. Very frustrating. Usually blamed on opponents WiFi etc.
Surely we should be using our own cellular collections? So, creating our own WiFi connection and not relying on others?
I go to the speedway in Glasgow and watch their races online. There is way less money in their sport, the stadiums are hardly a technical hub but they can stream fast paced sport in HD with no issues. The fact that ours is so unreliable, means that more and more people are likely to switch off from it. It really needs investment and an overhaul! I wonder what the estimated costs would be to run a decent service.
Someone is getting money from this. Maybe not making a profit , I've no idea. But............ The fact,a lot of good Arabs are paying in regularly for a really poor product is not acceptable.
I'm wondering if the Foundations interest, might be to help upgrade, as opposed to skelpin' erses???
Hope so. We have paid a lot of money for a lot of good things. This might be worth a decent donation.
Maybe, the guys involved are just as annoyed as we are (hopefully)
PS: are they doing it for free? Or just a half-time peh???
Hope the club can sort this out
Not right for a fan to tune in after a hard week and find the stream doesn’t work
Seem to remember people donating money for better equipment a good few years ago yet here we are again discussing something that’s been going on since around 2005? There was some Dunfermline guy that started doing his own online streaming site around 2005 that included PPV (5 quid a game) and it was trouble free. I first used United’s service for a 2-2 derby game in 2005–buffering, loss of audio etc etc. Still the same things 18 years later ffs.
