Help Streaming ADMC Sports....

[Richyrich]

thanks for the insights mate.

was the 1.5meg the HD channel or just normal SD? IIRC, i read somewhere that the HD streams will go as high as 4mbmps and the normal channels 2.4mbps.

my idea was to use my desktop and project it to my TV of the same size as yours. adding on, i am contemplating between AJS and PLP (but ajs has more channel and covers more league). aside from overplay, is there any better DNS service out there?

No probs mate. 1.5meg was ADMC last year, it may have even been higher, I can't really remember. I do know that JSC goes nowhere near it. JSC doesn't go over 500k on HD or SD but is still watchable on a smaller screen. Think you can rule out a 42" screen mate.

I have found Overplay good, it handled ADMC easily last year so can't see a reason to change. Hope this helps.

Just to add. Thanks AdamAVFC for your guides, made it all a breeze, cheers mate.

I bought the full package yesterday. These are my findings. Firstly, I use a 13" Macbook pro with smart dns from Overplay on a 30mb Virgin sub. I had ADMC last year.

The streams are not the same quality as ADMC. When streaming ADMC last year my wifi in would show over 1.5 meg while streaming, JSC doesn't go over 500k. The HD channels seem the same as the SD channels. I used to watch ADMC on a 42inch plasma sometimes last year and it was watchable, JSC is not really watchable on a 42" screen.

There is a option to choose between two audio streams and during the Bolton game you were able to swap between Arabic and English. Weather this will be for every prem game is anybodies guess? I got a feeling it might just be for games showing on Sky as well but I may be wrong!!

JSC is watchable on my 13" laptop and have had no stuttering problems at all. I'm Cardiff and due to personal reasons will not be able to make it to many games next year but will be able to see every game on JSC stutter free so for me it is well worth the money. Don't have a Ipad so can't help with that.

If I had fibre optic - would the ipad app using vpn be off a watchable nature? Also, are the HD channels just sd streams?

How much ppppeanut?

Im selling a sub for the full package with Al Jazeera including 6 HD channels and every premiership game

[southpaw]

Yes there is an option to change audio on my laptop, can't seem to find one on my iPad app at the moment, I'm sure there will be a new version of the app soon!

I'm more than happy to sell my subscription if your interested, going to view the games on my dish instead

Just for the sake of clarity, your selling a sub to the package that does not have the premier league games ?

[steveOooo]

Can anyone confirm if all matches have English commentary please? Like if there is an option to change the audio on a stream from Arabic to English or something?

If so I think I'll sign up, as $135 still works out a bargain for the full season. Also how is the HD quality? are the same matches on SD and HD like BBC1 and BBC1HD or will one match be on SD and one on HD?

Cheers

Championship game today had English commentary - the 'audio 1 / 2' option did nothing...

Why don't you try ?

As above - they suspend your account - what about if I log off, sign into my dads laptop - demo it (as he's not sure if his laptop is powerful enough) then sign out of his laptop? What's the worst that could happen?

Where does it state that you can only watch on one device? Seems ultra stingy! At least one laptop/ipad combo or 2 devices like sky go / now tv (4devices, max 2 concurrent streams at any one time)

[opsmonkey]

Has anyone watched on a laptop and ipad at the same time?

DO NOT do this, they suspend your account if you log in from multiple devices

Also wow.. The full package has rocketed to $135, I'm glad I took the plunge when I did

What do you mean? Football season started today! Watched the Notts County game on there! Subscription paid up until 27th July 2014

[cgscott]

I'm happy to sell my 12 months subscription to Al Jazeera for ?65? Drop me a pm if interested

Yeah now there is no footy on it its well worth that
