Hi,

For people that have a subscription for motogp.com, has anyone noticed the bad quality since they introduced the multi view interface? I havent paid for the upgrade so im just using the single view.

But there is no way of selecting 720P HD so the video looks SD and clicks and pops all the time.

Its not my internet as I watch Hulu, Netflix and Vudu in HD all the time.

Cheers

I found last night that the sound of the bikes was so loud that I could hardly hear the commentary.

The video quality was really bad. I ended up switching to free to air tv to watch it.

Ive emailed them complaining and said I didnt pay lot on a subscription for SD quality

+1 don't mind some engine noise, but couldn't hear the comments ... they probably were raving on MM, as they have been for the last 2 years!

he is the next big thing but sometimes it seems they can't speak 2 sentences without mentioning him..

this said i'm a fan of his. but still like to keep some rational into it...

click on the mixer and you can control the volumns of both the ambient and commentary volumn

yep, noticed the bad vid quality - it comes and goes
yesterday's race was plagued with what look like internet freezes - the qatar race was smooth.
i will prob send in a complaint too.

Mine works fine, able to watch in 720p. No real issues. Could this be related to your Internet service provider?

I also notice that for multi view to work properly your interned needs to meet minimum speed criteria.

Exactly...People just need to play around with stuff and experiment. Although at first I was like wtf is this .......But yes the 'mixer' is what you need to look for located by the quality of video...I put the ambient all the way low and the commentary all the way up, once I leave the mixer I then turn the volume all the way up. Also some weeks the commentary sounds lower in volume but im sure that pertains to the track and how the equipment was set up/mic location to their mouths ect...And video quality is all up to your internet connectivity, when I was in the hotel it wasn't worth watching cause I could only see a few seconds at a time, now at my sisters place its perfectly fine!

Well its not my internet speed, I have 100Mbs plus Hulu/netflix steam with no issues, its just since the new multi screen interface started.
The last race was perfect.

They haven't replied to my email yet.

Sorry for starting this in the wrong thread.
