If you right click on the video you can changew the settings. Change the local storage to unlimited and it gives much better picture with less breaks

It's been working smoothly although the picture quality is iffy. I can hardly tell which team is which on the more distant shots. Thanks to Flyers for trying with this.

One thing here. If they can sort the quality out and charge a reasonable fee, could be a money spinner surely. Unprecedented demand? Most say they can't cover costs, sounds like we could and more. Terrible quality tonight though, even after it was "fixed"

It would have been unprecedented demands because it was free. Charge £7/8/9 and that demand will automatically drop 80-90%

Unprecedented demand? Hmmmm ... reeks of PR spin. No commentary after P1 as ''Simmsy'' sat texting and tweeting instead. Way to go Dave! What was the point of doing anything? And why did the players sod off as well? Feedback online was very negative so maybe it's best they go back to the drawing board and come up with a decent product. And why no no Fife commentator -do we really need the Sheffield mouthpiece? I hear one was lined up and in the building ...

Pretty poor to be honest, stuck it out but picture and sound was really pretty much jnwatchable. Just needs more bandwidth I suspect, shame really, was looking forward to watching

According to Twitter, there were over 10,000 viewers. It's never going to get anywhere near that when it's a paid for product.

Yeah but try charging £2 or an amount for a season pass. As long as costs are covered then extra cash for the club. Massive improvement in quality needed though

I would have thought that demand would have been very high and should have been expected given the opposition who have arguably the largest support in the league. Great to see the club trying these things but the issues need to be sorted.

Offering it free is brilliant but results in oversubscription. It might be better testing a reasonable number of viewers (whatever that number is) and seeing if it works. People could sign up in advance as part of a test. Once the quality is established I'd subscribe. Perhaps if the initial test was free with an email feedback arrangement it might be a more realistic test. Just a garbled thought.
