AJS actually put in a serious bid in the UK for the Premier League highlights recently (would mean no more BBC MOTD!)

This is all speculation at the moment. Why do people assume this is a problem caused by AJS. To me it looks like an issue at the Overplay end.

I tried premierleague pass due to the problems we all had yesterday and I must say the picture quality was the best I've seen so far. I'm considering making the jump, only thing is they don't have a monthly payment method

The Premier League are selling sole rights to live games for a lot of money.
If I was going to pay them £1.78 billion for the UK rights to a shedload of Premier League games I would want some cast iron guarantees that I really did have sole rights. I might even have a clause in there saying I got a refund from the Premiership should anyone else's transmission be freely available in the UK. I might even provide technical help to AJS to help them cut off their feed. There is a lot of money involved so I imagine they will be employing some very clever people to stop AJS's online Premiership feed to the UK.. I think it will go on all season. |

It's not purely down to that though. They can't be seen to be doing nothing when they're aware that 3pm fixtures are being beamed into pubs. They've got to actively pursue it. I have a feeling that the Premier League will be tweaking the agreements to follow suit with NBCUniversal - i.e. that access can only be granted to streaming services with an active subscription / viewing card number. They're not afraid to make changes midway through a tender as we all know from the last time they blocked all but one 3pm kickoff and banned English comms from European satellite distribution. |

AJS has been working fine with overplay.net since halfway through the first half of Madrid & Villareal last night. I've told Overplay's support that I'll test it during the next two EPL games and see how I get on. The iOS app on my iPhone 5 would only play about 5-10 minutes of a game before having to reload the stream/channel.
I hope Overplay can crack this, couldn't go back to no 3pm's and the ludicrous prices for Sky & BT Sports. |

Rewinding the stream 1-2 minutes seems to do the trick, no problems with quality after trying that.

Where did you hear that? As far as I'm aware, they didn't place a bid on any live rights package and the highlights package is designated free-to-air, meaning only BBC, ITV, C4 or C5 could bid and win. AJ wouldn't have been able to submit a bid for the highlights.
Then again i could be completely wrong Either way.... Good to have OverPlay working with AJS again so we can watch on iOS |

I don't think so, the stream would just stop dead. A pity because the quality (even on SD +3) is excellent.

Help!!!!!!!!
I accidentally updated the iOS app on my iPad and lost airplay.
![]() If anyone here has the iOS app v2.2, would be greatly appreciated, if you could backup the app on iTunes, and upload the AJS .ipa file to somewhere so I could download it and restore the old version to my iPad, anyone, please?!?

Have you tried my tips i posted earlier? [top tip] Using CCleaner to clean the browser properly (make sure the browser you use is selected) Increasing the storage AJS can hold Playing around with Hardware Acceleration on the flash players settings ![]() I've tried the other suggestions for the web version though they haven't usually made much difference for me. The default settings I use in Ubuntu and Chromium have been almost like Sky HD up to this weekend.! |

Working for me again on both Windows and iOS.
Would be nice to know if it was a genuine issue at OverPlay or an attempt by AJS to block non Middle East users. |
