    Sounds good, would you rate the quality as better/worse/same as sopcast streams?

    About the same really, maybe slightly better as the player size is slightly bigger but sometimes it varies.

    Edit: This LiveOnlineFooty is sweet, pretty faultless stream. Looks like siz quid well spent.

    Have been using it for 3 months now and would recommend it. £6 for 2 months is great value.

    10/10 for liveonlinefooty, worked flawlessly tonight, on a 3mb eircom line. Even changed to the chelsea game at half time and had no problems. Well worth the £6 if the demo stream works.

    I logged into that and got my brother to log in on his laptop too and it worked on both happy days

    Beware - if they realize you are doing this they will cancel your subscription. Might be ok if you are doing it from the same internet connection as it would have the same IP address but dont give your password to mates.

    Right click, go to settings, and the first icon will display a tickbox for hardware acceleration. Untick it and reload the page, see if it works then.

    If it still doesnt go do the opposite thing and re-tick it.

    I've been using tvandsportstreams.tv for over 3 years now. I'd recommend it highly. Sometimes the streams will cut out and they will be down for 5-10 minutes, but that's maybe twice a season at most. They will have ever single United game in the entire season, including reserve team games. They have nearly every PL game every week, and have specific request threads if you want to push something unusual. Well worth the price I pay for it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,752 ✭✭✭markesmith


    I signed up to liveonlinefooty.com - €6 a month, paid through PayPal, what's to lose?

    Watched the Chelski-Sunderland game, have to say I was very impressed with the stream. However, I switched to the United game and it became a bit jumpy - advice would be to stick to the game you want to watch, don't channel hop. You need sufficient broadband for it as well.

    I channel hop all the time and never have a problem. I do have a 30mb connection though, may have something to do with it.

    Another good thing about Liveonlinefooty.com it works on the ps3

    Keys
    What's the quality like on the PS3 .

    I will be watching it in a '46 Samsung .
    Does it play in a smaller window and you have to zoom using the PS3 browser zoom ? If so I would say there is a massive loss in quality .


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,675 ✭✭✭s_carnage


    Was really impressed with liveonlinefooty.com last night. Thought the quality was actually better than the sky player. Hopefully they will keep the site up and running for a long time. Must be coming from Greece because it says at the start of each half "only for viewing in Greece".

    Was handy that they switched over at half time too to see a bit of the Chelsea game.

    Why are people paying for streams?

    If they're better quality and more reliable, what's the harm. I can usually find a decent stream that won't cut out, but not always and sometimes I have to settle for foreign language commentary. If this can deliver all that 100% of the time, then it's well worth £2 a month!

    Totally agree. Last week for Liverpool midweek game it was tough enough to find a stream that wasn't skipping or cutting out completely. Think it was nearly the 30th minute before I found one and that was in Spanish. £6 for 2 months of quality streams is well worth it I think and would mush rather it than paying €20 or €30 a month for sky and then not getting all the matches like last night.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,709 ✭✭✭✭Cantona's Collars


    I just use streams for Utd. games not on tv,would prefer watching them with a decent bitrate and they are a last resort,certainly wouldn't pay for any of them.

    Quality is near perfect it plays proper fullscreen too I was watchin on 32" tele . It's worth the 7euro for 2 months anyway
    I'll take a pic of it later of it and you can see yourself

    As 5starpool said, it's like having the red button on your sky remote.

    It's hosted in Sweden.

    Tried liveonlinefooty.com for the United game last night. The first 2 channels they were showing it on were pausing/stuttering every 20 seconds for me, the 3rd channel was perfect though. Will sign up for 60 days to see how I get on. really impressed with the quality.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,405 ✭✭✭Lukker-


    Anyone any idea what the average bitrate is for the games?

    Most games I can already get at 500+, but the odd game you do have to watch a dodgy russian stream.

    I paid for the 2 months subscription last night. The United game was fantastic quality. The only time I've seen better quality was on Veetle's HD streams, and they're usually only basketball & American Football anyway,

    Highly recommended.
