Live TV LMS? - Page 6

isynge · 5 Apr 2009, 11:31 (Ref:2433996)

No objections at all re the Eurosport stream - okay there's no commentary, but combine with live timing, what's being said on the forum, and DSC's text coverage it's all looking pretty good.

The stream works well in VLC - which means you don't have to put up with all the Eurosport garnish cluttering up the screen real estate.

jc_nl · 5 Apr 2009, 11:31 (Ref:2433997)

From what I have seen so far, you can hear the interviews during the race (like the one right now with Biaggi)

Have you got a direct link to the stream isynge?

Tom87 · 5 Apr 2009, 11:48 (Ref:2434030)

Pretty satisfied with the stream, worth the few quid although commentary wouldn't go amiss. Four pounds will be nothing if this is availible for Le Mans.

deggis · 5 Apr 2009, 11:51 (Ref:2434036)

Bitrate and resolution? What kind of video format/codec? A screenshot would be even better.

Planning to use it for Le Mans again, and interested to hear how much it has changed from last year.

Rodger Davies · 5 Apr 2009, 11:57 (Ref:2434049)

739kbps apparently, 400x300 res using WMP codec.

anybody else got problems with picture freezing/jumping? or is it just me?

isynge · 5 Apr 2009, 12:03 (Ref:2434059)

@jc_nl To get the link for the stream right click on the video box in the browser and open it in your media player of choice. As I say, it works very well in VLC.

jc_nl · 5 Apr 2009, 12:04 (Ref:2434060)

No problems at all here, stream works fine. I do miss Hindy though!!

We have the first turbo that has become victim of the bad fuell it seems, badly smoking RML car!

Dead-Eye · 5 Apr 2009, 12:05 (Ref:2434062)

I think I'll pass for now and reconsider for the races where RLM coverage is available...maybe if we asked nicely they could work together?

rustycrankshaft · 5 Apr 2009, 12:17 (Ref:2434079)

Was working fine at the start, now unwatchable bacause of the pic freezing

tramker · 5 Apr 2009, 12:21 (Ref:2434084)

Can anyone PM me the stream URL (as taken from Media Player properties), I've paid 8 euros ad still can't get it work :-(

Is that even possible?

Rodger Davies · 5 Apr 2009, 13:04 (Ref:2434134)

I really don't get the British motorsport watching puiblic sometimes. F1, yes I don't get it but I accept it's quick and glamourous so people are going to watch it.

What I really don't understand is that ITV are showing the entire support bill for the BTCC. So more people want to watch this than would prefer to watch Chevrolets, Astons, Lamborghinis, Ferrari's and Porsches racing rather than these kids bashing Renault Clios up?

Thats the uneducated public for you.

Anybody that has problems with eurosport player jumping/frezzing like me, download VLC, its works sooooo much better! Quick before its too late!

Lipp · 5 Apr 2009, 14:17 (Ref:2434208)

VCL?
the stream works fine for me... the only thing is that I cannot resize (yes, to the max but I do not want that) the window because the player is embedded in the site...

rustycrankshaft · 5 Apr 2009, 14:20 (Ref:2434209)

For me the normal player was unwatchable but VLC works good. Can resize too so you can fit the live timing on desktop at same time. I'm happy again now!

Emillian Stoyko · 5 Apr 2009, 14:21 (Ref:2434211)

With me, when I click two times on the window it goes to full size eventhough it's embeded.

Can't wait for Spa. The stream plus Radio Le Mans will be mega.

EDIT: Oops, sorry. Now I realised you want to make the window bigger without it being ful screen. Then I guess you do have to use VLC.

dj choc ice · 5 Apr 2009, 14:52 (Ref:2434239)

Right click on the video embedded in the Eurosport player
Select properties
Copy the MMS address
Logout of the Eurosport player
Open VLC
Under Media select Open Network
Paste the MMS into the address bar
And you're done

Dani Filth · 5 Apr 2009, 15:01 (Ref:2434257)

Stefvh · 5 Apr 2009, 15:03 (Ref:2434265)

Will someone put the Highlights in some p2p network ?

dj choc ice · 5 Apr 2009, 15:08 (Ref:2434271)

Im having something weird happen, i copy the address but when i go to paste it it says error, seems something is wrong with my computer maybe?

Dani Filth · 5 Apr 2009, 15:16 (Ref:2434287)

I doubt it. As no TV station has actually covered the race in its entirety its unlikely they will produce a highlights show. Hope I'm mistaken though...
