    Further to discussions that were on here about RTÉ using Saorview for extra broadcasts, I was pleased to see that both semi-finals of the Irish Greyhound Derby were shown on RTÉ News Now on Saturday night. As the final will be on RTÉ 2 next Saturday night I thought this was an excellent use of News Now and hopefully there will be more broadcasts like this in the future.

    Were they shown full screen or within the existing video frame?

    I wonder if it to restrict bit-rate?

    Watched some of it but got bored. They lost the video a good few time and the audio level was all over the place. A bit in-house self congratulating going on there. Would like to see an edited version of it though.
