Instead of all the click-bait Multichoice rubbish we are treated to perhaps we can have an article on why the streaming is utterly useless and what they are going to do about it.

Don't be sillily Dave. There is no income incentive for such an article.

So frustrating :mad:

Absolutely diabolical. Can't go a few minutes without having to refresh the dam page.

Had a stop start thing earlier. Restarted the router. Fine again.

The rugby was fine when streamed through the Supersport app on my phone (Samsung A5) but stuttered horribly when trying to watch through my pc. Either it's a resolution thing, or they've allocated more upstream bandwidth to the people connecting through mobile than Windows platforms.

Ive always had better performance through the App. The website never works consistently.

Can anyone perhaps give advice. Why does the SuperSport Windows 10 app intermittently freeze.

Well, credit where credit's due. I've moaned a lot about Supersports rubbish streaming service in the past, but having just watched the Australian F1 GP from 5:30 am till 10, at 1200 kbps (almost full HD) without a single buffer or stutter, I can see Multichoice have obviously lifted their game in the streaming department since last year. And it was the full sky F1 show too. And I didn't have to endure that idiot sacha martinengo for a second. F1 this year is looking up!

DSTV streaming is the most piss-poor service I have ever encountered and that includes Telkom.

I had the same experience yesterday. I was too lazy to get up to watch the GP yesterday, so I streamed on my ipad. No issues at all.

It great to get the skyF1 coverage. I hated listening to martinengo and co talk crap. Plus martin Brundle gives a more balanced view of the race than BBC's Ben Edwards. Ben is Lewis Hamilton's greatest fan and it all about how good he is.
