Working really well on my ATV. 7mbit stream consistent and very clear.

 

Also the Play from start worked fine for me. Tested it at half time.

Looks good on my Samsung TV

 

Looks "insert bad word here" on the Sony TV using the app (Looks 720p ish at 30 fps to me)

 

Looks ok on same Sony TV using built in Chromecast.

Flawless stream again on ATV. Better than the 1440x1080i that Sky pushes.

Just switched to Kodi (Matt Huisman's add-on) for the last 16 minutes. Quite a bit of jankiness and occasional buffering (running on ODroid C2). Glad it's only my backup option.

I have both versions of Apple TV 4. The 4k version watch from start goes to the live stream. But the non 4k version plays from the start.

Full time and the stream was flawless. Good work to SS. Few people on the local FB page complaining, looks like at least a few of them may have device issues which they're blaming on SS. Looking forward to seeing how the AB's game goes tomorrow night.

Sound quality very poor it's like watching with mono. Not clear and detailed compared to sky sports and Amazon prime/Netflix. I won't mention blu-ray.

How can you tell it’s a 7mbit stream on the ATV? There are no diagnostics on ATV are there.

Also which ATV4? 4k or non 4k?

Worked really nicely on my shield. The picture looks better to me on Kodi rather than through the app. Thought the sound was ok, just the commentary was below average.

Had family around so was distracted through most of the opening ceremony, so was perfect being able to go back and check it out during the wait for the game to kick off.

Tomorrow's going to be a solid day on the couch/burning mobile data!

I might cast to the shield tomorrow instead of using the atv4k as I don't want to "watch from the start" and end up live for the AB's game

@dfnt

I can’t watch the JPN v RUS game on demand either - get same message as you.




Sometimes I just sit and think. Other times I just sit.
