It was shaky in places but on the plus side on Channel 7 you could get widescreen and to be fair the commentary was excellent today and Trevor Francis was in good form (probably hates the Albion)

I have subscribed to live online for a couple of years and never once had a problem. I did however suss a couple of weeks ago that watching it through my ps3 increases the quality ten fold. For some reason connection seems better, little buffering and the clarity on 4:9 on 32 inch is fantastic. Well worth £6 every couple months.

Just for info sake.
I am running my second Lolf subscription and since sunday everything worked fine. I tend to watch city through them only for UEL's games as since now SKY Italia only missed 2 EPL games and no one FA Cup's.

Well, the news is: after the lacklustre game vs. Fulham - suddenly and without any previous notice - "my account has been disabled. please contact the web_fucklin_master"...
I obviously tried to apply either to the online support web chat and to the webmaster [scott@liveonlinefooty.com] but , since now [i.e. for the last 4 full days!] nobody get bothered even to reply me a fuck off!

so, while I am always keen to understand a possible technical error, I though it would have been worth an advise.
Ok I am talking of only 6 miserable quids, but, as it stands, I have to rely on bloody soapcast/veetle to watch the Kiev A & H games, as in Italy UEL is an exclusive of Mediaset DVB, and I will never pay a penny to a company owned by the fucking criminal of mr. Berluskoni.

1. "unintelligible language"
2. "ACID QUEEN"
3. "never once fails to turn a football thread into a himseelf thread"
4. "thumbs stalker often resulting in repetitive thumb strain"
5. ignore the cunt. he's on permantent wum mission. only TIDs may know City

You'd need to make a very good psychiatrist in order to guess what next in a eight yrs long line of hatred...

So what you are saying is that if you ever go skint you are going to sell your arse to sailors to make ends meet?

Glad we cleared that up.

Is it just me or has the quality of their streams gone worse since last season or are my memories of last season just too rosy?
I'm just watching the Stoke-Chelsea game from the "High BW" channel and I'd say it's only as good as the normal streams were last season. The same applied to the community shield match too.

Avoid freelivefooty.com or something like that. I once mixed that up with LOF and that was a horrible site.

I run a Mac Mini as a HTPC and subscribe to LOF. No need to download anything, just select the channel and use the browsers flash player (I use Firefox). As with YouTube there is a little button to click in the bottom of the window which makes it full size :)

I was very impressed with the quality of the Arsenal game as it was streamed via the ESPN HD channel. The Dippers game was ok, very watchable but obviously not as good as normal TV viewing.

All in all for the £6 it is really worth getting for the 3pm games alone!

thanks gilford.. i've got the same set up with a mini serving a big lcd screen ( that i also use for my main computing screen for work and everything - it is a good set up). Anyways good to know it is flash based video, easy peasy.
Out of interest i have switched to Chrome as i have found it faster than Firefox in general - i doubt there is a difference in the flash playback quality/speed though tbh.

I'm guessing it will work fine on all browsers, I just stick to Firefox because of the handy plug-ins :-)

If only they could release an in-app browser for Plex....................

i use the flash player on Chrome just fine. LOF is tops. i've rarely ever had an issue. i think this is like the 3rd or 4th year i've just signed up for the season pass straight away since i usually end up watching the few, and believe me you there are very few, City matches that aren't televised here in the US...but it's also good in case i need a footy fix without having the main TV blaring football all day and the trouble yelling at me for watching the football all day long.

ended up watching the last half of the filth on it this weekend and it was a great stream..except they needed to do something about the result. I'm guessing if it were Italian football we could pay a premium rate to get the results we wanted as well, right? Progress.

cheers

Yeah ^^^

Exactly the same as Doom. Fourth year now. Can't recommend it highly enough, though it has been a little shit this pre-season for me, but I think that's because they've made a new website and there has been a few teething problems. I'll let them off though as even sports streaming sites can be rusty pre-season and they seem to be getting their act back together now :)

I watch it on mac too. No problems. Same as watching any video online. No software needed.

i actually just also got a new Samsung Galaxy android tablet from work running Verizon's 4G network which is blazingly fast, and watching LOF on a tablet is actually really fantastic stuff. i also watched a City match in a cab on my HTC android phone using Verizon's 4G network and LOF and it was really, for a phone, amazing.

the world is getting so small...my cab driver, who happened to be Cameroonian and a huge footy fan was kind of losing his mind that i was able to do that and follow the action. Bear in mind that the HTC phone has a pretty big screen of course.

:o

Jealous. Very. I normally run to a starbucks as I always tend to have my macbook with me. I actually have a HTC HD7, but as its a window's phone its not flash compatible at the moment, which is fucking frustrating as it technically does have the biggest screen on the smart phone market so it'd be great. Grrr. Though standard phone internet speed wouldn't be fast enough anyway I guess.
