Just got this email off plp
We’ve been testing an HD, 4500kbps stream for the last few weeks and it’s looking really good so it’s time to roll it out on some live games. We’re going to start it this weekend on the web and iPad players, so if you notice things looking a little different then that’s likely what you’re seeing. If you have any problems with the new stream, please let us know on 0800 PL PASS so we can make any necessary adjustments.
You can jump back down to your normal stream at any time using the video quality drop box next to the Volume control on the web player, while it looks to us like the adaptive streaming feature should work to keep things smooth on the iPad.
If you’re concerned about your data caps, a full game at 4500 should be about 3GB, so if that’s a problem manually drop your stream or talk to our friends at Telecom about upping your limit.
Thanks,
PLP
