Channel 4 watch live - crap or just me?

Pete-MK (Elite Donator) posted this on Wednesday, 29th August 2012, 19:18

Tried watching the Para opening ceremony via the website. Got the `insufficient bandwidth` message. Ran a speedtest.net and got 6.5mb. Not great, but it`s what I;m used to. Check the iPlayer feeds and they`re just dandy, as is BBC live. So are Channel 4  just bandwidth greedy, or are they just crap?

4od can be a bit hit and miss via web page as well, 5 mins later programme can work fine.

Now that the adverts are on (during the Opening Ceremony) I can comment,...... They have been dubbing the wrong music but the issue with their live webstream will be  unexpected levels of web viewers for the upstream they have supplied.

Hey, what the hell?

I didn`t bother recording the opening ceremony, because I intended to watch it on 4OD, and it isn`t there!!!

Why haven`t they put it on there? That`s disgusting! And it`s not on Sky Anytime either. I`ve missed it. God, how annoying. What`s that all about? It ought to be the most available programme they have.

To be completely blunt and honest, it`s not worth the bandwidth. A couple of interesting moments. but nothing as amazing or awe-inspiring as the other games` opening.

For me the highlight was Orbital, Stephen Hawkings (with Orbital light specs) and the "Blockheads" bit.

calm down, it was only on last night, sometimes it takes a couple of days for them make their stuff available.
