Streaming Issues

Is the stream really blurry for anyone else or do I just have terrible internet?

Just had a quick chat with Pete Waggoner up here...the issue is apparently somewhere along the transmission of the feed from the X back to the studio. They're working on it.

Thanks for the update, Karl. Hopefully they can get that fixed sooner rather than later, especially since they're charging people this year. Let us know if you hear anything else.

They could always bring down the pay wall while they're working on that issue

That's what I was thinking. I don't think I'll pay again tomorrow if they're still having issues.

I'm working...A little fuzzy in Phiily.

Hi Pete!

Hi Pete!

At least you get it fuzzy, mine has been circling for 10 minutes.

Any advice?

Opened another tab and it worked.

It's back, just in time for some commercials.

the game was down locally here as well. assume you are talking about late in the first period if memory serves me correct. Felt like there was about 2 minutes left in the period and we were not back up until after the period was over. That was locally on Comcast.

Webt down on DirecTV too so it may have been an issue from 45.

Been seriously choppy today.

The action continues after it freezes, then it resets and I lose a minute or two of game play.

Cleared all cookies...Works super now.

It is less blurry now, but I'm still incredibly disappointed in KSTC and prep45.

Last week I watched the 8A final on WDAZ's (Grand Forks TV station) website. It was like what KSTC does for the tournament where they just take the TV feed and put it online, and it was in perfect HD. Last Friday, prep45 streamed one of the sections finals from the coliseum in HD. Neither feed stuttered, fast forwarded minutes at a time, or had any major problems.

Point is, clearly smooth HD streaming can be done. I feel like until prep45 can figure out how to do it, they shouldn't charge people to watch.

Yeah, It's stuttering and fast forwarding for me again.

I also remember the free feed didn't have commercials either.

Ogie · Post by **Ogie** » Fri Mar 07, 2014 10:45 pm

Not a single stutter during the commercials!

Done being tolerant.

The stream SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
