Barry the Badger Posted 3 November, 2013 Share Posted 3 November, 2013 Mine was juddery yesterday, gave up and used firstrowsports. Might give up on Al Jazeera, great when it works but too many problems to be worth 12 quid a month Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

radders82 Posted 3 November, 2013 Share Posted 3 November, 2013 For only 4.95 per month you can get offside streams which has all the sky sports channels, all ajs channels plus loads of american sports channels which shows the football as well. It is standard def but the streams are stable plus there is an add on for xbmc if you use that Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hypochondriac Posted 3 November, 2013 Share Posted 3 November, 2013 One of the best things I have found is if I'm watching on my mobile then u log in using my wifi then if I turn off wifi it continues over 3g and I can go out with it still playing games as long as I don't go off it again.

norwaysaint Posted 3 November, 2013 Share Posted 3 November, 2013 I considered getting this at the start of the season, but thought I'd wait and see how it went. To be honest I've been so happy with the free streams that I haven't even considered paying for it. seems a mixed bag reading through this. Must be annoying if it juddered, my stream yesterday was smooth throughout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plumstead_Saint Posted 3 November, 2013 Share Posted 3 November, 2013 Hypo - are you using the Android app or IOS app? Cos apart from using them everybody has been reporting the same low frame rate = jerky picture, and I'm still seeing that today. IF you are using Smart DNS and the flash streams and still getting a good stream you are a very lucky man.

Pat from Poole Posted 4 November, 2013 Share Posted 4 November, 2013 I use the android app for my nexus and my s4. I use unotelly dns settings on both devices. It's odd. I also have Virgin Media broadband at the top speed (100mb), and have Al Jazeera Sport on a laptop using Unotelly DNS, but it was rubbish for me on Saturday. Kept stuttering, and I had to keep switching between HD4 and non-HD channel 5 every 3 or 4 minutes to be able to view it without it freezing. Was really annoying. I wonder how Kelly's Bar in London Road manage to show it OK, do they have one of these mega-size satellite dishes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bartosz Bialkowski Posted 5 November, 2013 Author Share Posted 5 November, 2013 As the thread initiator I've obviously been using this service from the beginning, based on that experience I can relay some useful tips which may help others: 1. If you want to watch TV from a foreign country, whilst in the UK and dont know what DNS servers are - stop here 2. Overplay, whilst stable, is NOT the fastest solution. I have found unotelly to be faster, less to no lagg, but others may have alternates? 3. Make sure you log out after every time you use the service 4. If you get locked out they will reactivate your account happily the first time, but after that will ask questions in relation to your location 5. Even if you get locked out, it auto-resets in 24 hours 6. So dont try to login, and fail at 2:55pm Lastly, if you are tech-savvy dont let any other posts put you off. Ive used it every away game, laptop hooked to my TV and its well worth the effort/cash Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattyg Posted 5 November, 2013 Share Posted 5 November, 2013 I have signed up to starsports after using ajs for a month. How does starsports compare. To ajs? +cheap as chips, £5 for a season! +You can pause and rewind like ajs, but it also includes a time line to allow you to jump to highlights. +The full game and highlights appear to be available for a week. +English commentary only, I know ajs mainly has ajs but some formats didn't. +Has ios, Android and mobile website streaming. -The quality is not as good as ajs. It shows you the bitrate which varies over time. Max 1386 which is HD but normal only hits 836 and sometimes drops to less. It better than most free streams which have English commentary. For me it is worth £5 compared to free streams, I would still pay for ajs if it worked flawlessly for £12 a month. I have also gone across to unotelly after using overplay for a month.

Crouchie Crouchie Posted 5 November, 2013 Share Posted 5 November, 2013 AJS is working perfectly now. They seemed to have changed the flash player they use. The picture is even better than before there were problems with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hutch Posted 6 November, 2013 Share Posted 6 November, 2013 just a point to make. I don't use Al Jazeera (we get the games on satellite here anyway), but I do use Overplay. Using the VPN in my experience is definitely faster and more stable than using the SmartDNS, although it's a bit more expensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
