Lots of discussion on how/where/when to best watch matches in amongst each match thread. Thought I'd start a specific thread.

So what was people's experience watching the Cheetahs' game?

How was the broadcast? I saw people complaining about it on the match thread.

Trying to decide whether to subscribe or not.

My only issue is Mark Bloody Robson.

That and I had to reload the app a couple of times as the stream randomly froze.

So it was just the streaming that was bad? The TV broadcast was ok?

Subscribed to Premier via Sky, today to watch :red: . All good. Have to say I pigged out on the Pro 14 for the rest of the day. I'm over it now.

BR, I'm just on 10Mb internet here, was on 76Mb (allegedly) back in Bangor, I am using the app on my laptop, then HDMI cable to TV, and it sometimes comes up "medium" quality but just manually changing to "high" works fine with a good HD picture. No complaints whatsoever, though I do miss Gusher.

So relatively modest internet giving me good HD and I've had no interrupted streaming.

1F has really improved his punditry. He no longer sounds like a fan having a rant.

Couldn't chrome cast the Cheetahs game because it was on channel 2. Android app. Any ideas? IPhone app any better?

You could screen mirror your device with the chromecast or alternatively purchase a hdmi lead that fits your device's output port.

I did screen mirror but the quality drops off significantly. Ended up just watching on surface pro, left hdmi connector for it in work

That's the problem with mirroring.
