Watching this now, am most impressed by the live in-match interviews with Martin Guptil (fielding) just now!
What next? Premier League interviews with idle goalkeepers or centre halves during matches? Now that really would be game-changing! |

Sky did it on T20 cricket years ago - it's nothing new.

Why? Someone please explain to me why a scorebar at the bottom is so much worse than a scorebar at the top. Both types of scorebar might interfere with action in football, depending which side of the pitch the ball is on. As far as I can tell, other sports like cricket use a scorebar at the bottom too.
As far as I can tell, the only reason for annoyance is not being used to it. On the other hand, I can understand people wanting the DOG to be translucent because this is clearly preferable and a lot of channels, including Sky Sports, do this. But the fact its solid black, and the background being green (The pitch) you can't help but see it and because alot of the action is in the bottom half of the screen, it gets your attention. It needs moving and quickly. I don't care how different BT want to be, trying to play around with something that is a standard for sport broadcasting around the world, just no.. |

Shame the AFL is not in HD. I assume it's a lack of HD world feed as virtually everything else shown is now HD.

Have just been watching the cricket on the internet stream in Firefox, for the first time. I've been unable to connect to it in Windows 8 so decided to reboot into Windows XP and bingo! Success! No idea what the W8 problem is though, the error number isn't mentioned in the BT Help FAQs.
Anyway, I am impressed. The average bitrate is 3.7 Mbps in full screen mode (2.5 in a window) and the picture quality is excellent for a unicast stream - very much better than SD quality and definitely some kind of HD. Well done on that, BT. Curiously, the windowed bitrate has been dropping as low as 500kbps during the ad breaks! |

I noticed this morning for the cricket the BT Sport 1 logo had moved to the top of the screen, so at least we know they'll move it depending on the event once they realise it's in the wrong place / get enough feedback.

Watching BT sport panel its good. My only niggle I wish the cameras would stop moving though it's doing my head in. Also BT sport 1HD is still much quieter than 2 which is annoying hope they sort that.

Having huge problems with the BT Sports App.
Cannot log in - not recognising username - fails to resend new password. Must have been on the phone for about 2 hours today - and still not had any satisfactory help. Thinking of unsubscribing - very unimpressed. |

From what i can see you cannot get BT Sport in HD on the Sky platform if you stick with Sky Fibre and don't move to BT Infinity? Can anyone confirm this?
