Fair enough. Well in that case, yes, they need to sort streaming capacity out, but a broken mic is something that can easily happen and easily be fixed.

Argh. Deleted my post.
We had the most subscribers for watchloi last season. If they didn't expect high demand for the first game of the season and the first real Cork Derby in 13 years then thats ridiculous.
It was unwatchable in the first half last night. I had to refresh because the stream froze or dropped entirely 12 times in the first half alone. Once it took over two minutes for the stream to come back up.
We had issues last year too on watchloi including the Sligo game at the Cross where the stream was down the entire game. One of the few games we won all year.
It may well have worked for other games but if they are unable to handle demand and thats what caused last nights issues then I doubt they will have them solved by next week. Shambolic stuff.

Pretty sure there were internet issues in Turner's Cross on more than one occasion last year. Perhaps was the reason for the issues last night too?

Possibly but that doesn't explain how much better it was in the second half when the club was streaming their own version and the audience was split across two systems.

Yes I’d love replays but if I go to a LOI game I don’t get replays. Just watch the game as if you’re at it.

Yes the coverage of the Cork v Waterford game last year had major problems and I think a refund was given to anyone who bought the one off game. It's ridiculous that these issues weren't sorted for the new season.

I take your point and for the hard-core fan thats probably ok. But for the floating fan or for trying to attract new fans then it isint even close to good enough at the minute.

Look at our game on RTE the other night. Two cracking goals and seeing them replay after replay from all kinds of angles only added to it. Its what people expect.

Shouting criticism at the referee hasn't got the same satisfaction in your living room.

Pretty sure the commentator for Bray/Treaty is calling them "Trinity United".

Edit: 11 minutes in he has acknowledged he was mis-labelled them.

I'm done with loi tv after this week. It'll probably get better when half the city audience follows ****.

I don't think the Pixellot is suited too well to Cobh. The lower angle seems to result in a lot more sudden jerking.

I'm going to watch Cobh v Utd on LOITV later so I tried to set a recording on RTÉ2 for the Drogs v Pats match. A message popped up on the TV saying "we're sorry, for legal reasons you cannot record this show". I've recorded loads of matches before so it's strange that I'm not allowed anymore. Anybody know if it will be on the RTÉPlayer later on?

Somebody put a euro in the Internet box in Finn Park, shocking stream. Nearly 4 minutes behind with all the buffering. Plenty on orielweb saying the same

That was actually the only upside of the terrible stream, not hearing him get all the players names wrong for a few minutes

The problem was with Sportsradar, the company that run LOITV.

I wasn't blaming Harps. Didn't hear of any problems with other streams though which is strange, wonder what their setup is?

https://abs-0.twimg.com/emoji/v2/svg/1f4bb.svg Last night's live stream output, and that of the other Premier Division game at Finn Harps, were affected by technical issues at the platform owner. This was reported at the time and is being pursued by league officials.

The first half stream was shockingly terrible. The 2nd half was fine but was 6 minutes behind.

The Harps Dundalk stream was beset with pauses and green transmission breaking down type flashes and picture distortion. Rovers game was pausing every few seconds in a stop-start-stop-start way that every sentence was buffered. I ended up finding the LOITV stream for the Harps-Dundalk game on another streaming site and it worked fine, interestingly. Hope it's better this week.

Skybet stream was brilliant and on time, was direct from LOITV with Con and GG commentating and giving analysis at half time. Not sure how that worked so well? Gartland is very good in this role, and it was funny when Con was correcting his McJarret handwriting.

Apologies in advance if the problematic streams were from LOITV directly, if not, never moan of poor league cover again!!

Well, I'd like to say a big thanks to LOI TV. It was great to watch any game (not just Drogheda's) which took my fancy. Not always slick or 100% professional, but I couldn't fault the enthusiasm of the commentators and co-commentators. Hope it returns back next year.

Fully agree - I remember waiting in aertel for scores at away games … loitv is light years away from those days :) I watched many other games too apart from Drogs - was great seeing the different teams.

Sure it’s not 100% perfect but it’s far better than nothing.

Aertel had it's moments all the same. I remember having it on screen at home waiting for the full time from Kilkenny, Harps 2-0 down and an hour after the game was it hasn't gone final to put us out of our misery.

Suddenly it updates and Harps have won 3-2.

F**king magic.

Oh and on LOI TV. Many clubs spending a grand a game or thereabouts on it (some more, some less). Need to find a way to reduce that as you are paying a lot to effectively discourage some from attending, and many watching do so on dodgy unpaid streams.

100% has to be kept but needs to be considered carefully, or else supported by the league / FAI.
