fsubone Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 Mine froze right in the middle of Crown, and opened back up right before the long run in Obsession. Sucked to miss so much of the show. Wrote them a pretty considerate e-mail to see what made this happen, and if they were offering any kind of refund to those of us who had constant problems during the show. I had pixelation and stuttering issues all of the way through awards. Even missed a caption award because the stream jumped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grumpy Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 I didn't purchase this, primarily because at the late date this was announced I had already been scheduled to work last night...but I found pretty much the same problems with ALL FN feeds this whole week. The TOC show in Buffalo was doing the same things on Monday; quarters on Thursday I had a lot of these same issues with the early corps. I was using a tablet and a wifi hotspot though, so I just chalked it up to that. I was happy to see that after shelling out $20 each for the theater, that seemed to be free of any problems. Friday night during the semis, the same thing was happening although not as frequently as Thursday. At that point I was thinking to myself that they had better get their #### together before the Saturday broadcast. I was not able to watch any of the other live feeds this year, but were these problems going on all summer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You do know that you can go back and watch the whole thing up to midnight tonight right? Just go back to the dcifinals.com site, log in and it is still there.

Shadowtron Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 Have they posted the awards and encore stream that worked for NO ONE? Just put the #### thing on YouTube! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was able to see the awards last night. Just checked and they are there on the Multi-Cam. I don't think they are on the High Cam. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kamarag Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 Have they posted the awards and encore stream that worked for NO ONE? Just put the #### thing on YouTube! The awards stream was just fine for me. They stopped the stream before the encore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hrnguy500 Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 I sent an email to Drum Corps asking for a refund or a discount. I am hoping maybe I can gain access to the finals videos on the FN even though I only have the basic FN subscription. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flammaster Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 Well besides a freeze during my Son's corps performance the semi stream was superb. However, it has been a WEEK and still no Open Class VOD. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScoutMello Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 I really like how the high-cam feed stops in the middle of BD's show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JKT90 Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 (edited) The remedy for this is to roll back the progress bar. I rolled back 15 minutes and had no issues streaming...it's a buffering issue with too much data being streamed. What DCI should do for their live streams is to not actually stream it live but rather add in a delay to allow the data to load, but if they don't figure it out, roll it back next year...when the show starts hit the pause button and come a few minutes later and you're all set.
