Quote: REDWHITEANDBLUE "The only issues I have is that they're still not broadcasting in HD, which is a bit jarring when you're used to watching RL in that format. Also, because I record all the NRL games for later viewing, they reasonably regularly cock up the system so that Sky+ misses the end of coverage - one weekend that happened with every game, which was very frustrating.
Other than that, it's tremendous value for money.'"
They cannot be blamed fully for issues with the host broadcaster: CH9 do not show in HD - not even the Grand Final, there was a big fuss in Aus over this.
Regards the delays, a KO time is set and again CH9 disregard this, look at twitter feeds of people in Aus - its a running joke about the lottery of KO time. CH9 as major broadcaster play fast and loose with the game, way more interference than Sky have over here. They broadcast at a time that suits their program schedule and advertisers, often trying to create a clash with the delayed coverage of other games on Fox - to keep an audience for 60 Minutes/The Block or suchlike.
If recording a game now I generally record the program after to make sure I don't miss the end, altough Premier have wisened up a bit and extended some of the slots - which they then fill with old content if it finishes early.
Other content may be available in HD but why pay the extra hosting fees to Sky/Virgin when most content is only delivered to them in SD

Good post. I always wondered why some games ran over and I've also started recording the programme after to ensure I don't miss the end.

| I like the fact that they just play the Aussie programme, rather than having people over here in a studio.
I wish I'd recorded the Premier Sports version of the England game rather than opting for the HD BBC version. The commentary kept on getting ahead of the action, which was frustrating.

It will probably be replayed and I also think it will be available to view online through PremierPlayer.
I usually like to listen to their commentary - mainly to see what the Aussie perception is of our team and players.

best thing to do is go in to your sky planner settings, you can set to record programs by another X amount of minutes, I've got mine set to 5 mins more, i've not had any issues since

I've watched both the prem and BBC versions of the England Samoa match and for once I have to say i thought the BBC did a really good job
That said, the commentary on the Aussies n Kiwis was even better, mainly because it was the A team......Rabbits and sterlo the voice of RL!

| I've had Premier Sports for a couple of years and only started using their online streaming player this season due to moving away from Leeds. At the beginning of the season it worked really well and I had no problems streaming live games online. In the last 3 months their online streaming facility has plummeted. The final 3 weeks of the NRL season were horrendous. Stop/Start streaming and audio and visuals that were completely out of sync with each other. I've contacted them a number of times about this but never heard a response. On the basis of how badly it fell apart at the end of the year I cancelled my membership.

| NOooooo! Did anybody else have the last 5 mins of nz v Samoa cut off ? I don't know if this is a sky plus or premier sports issue but with 5 to go in arguably the best international I've seen in years, the box announced 'end of programme' - watching it 30 mins delayed means i couldn't catch up - have I got to adjust my clock and can you do this in the sky setup ?
I've since looked up the result but would have been nice to watch it live...

This is what Premier Sports say about recording their live programmes
Quote: Rumour13 "Only Sky are able to control record lengths of programs when the sport is live. We are working with SKY to find a fix but currently we ask you do one of the following to avoid missing the end of live games you record.
Record the program that follows to make sure you don’t miss the end.
Add the max 10 minutes to the record length of every program in Sky+ settings (this is not going to
guarantee you will see the end but will help)
Record the repeat which normally airs within 12 hours as this always fits into the time slot.
Complete a manual record by following the actions below

It did with me. This won't make you feel any better, but I looked for when it was being replayed, and as it turned out it was on at that moment. I tuned in and the game was a minute before the recording had ended. I felt like the luckiest man in rugbydom. Now I wonder whether the Ryan Hall decision was some kind of karma.
