KStateHD
« on: September 03, 2011, 10:55:17 AM »
Yes I know there's a 16 page thread on this but I don't give a crap, I'm trying to make this easy.  I haven't bought a subscription yet, but just the intro video is all starty stoppy, if the game is like that, I'm gonna go apeshit.  I have timewarner roadrunner wireless (54mbps)...anybody know what to expect?  tia

I have 12mbps on a good day and I have no problem watching. Granted I watch through my wired htpc, not over wifi.

As was pointed out in the other thread, any issues will be on their end with bandwidth. Hopefully they have worked out the problems from the live vb game the other night. Watching the on demand replay looked good on my screen.  Not quite crisp, but was pretty much hd and no problems with stutter or buffering.

The quality of streaming video is about on par with Playstation 1 video games...

I just subscribed and Im watching the Volleyball game from yesterday to test the connection and it is starty stoppy too. WTF! The Classic game plays fine but that isn't in HD. The HD volleyball game sucks. Its watchable but it will really piss me off if the game is like this.

I saw that you could do it but I have no idea how you go about doing it. Its probably only a couple dollars.

you will be fine. i read on the press release there is 3 levels of quality to the stream and you will get the one that best works with your connection. note you usually get the low quality one when you first connect but then it improves if your connection can handle it

Well I've subscribed, bought a puter to tv hdmi cable and will report back tonight.
i think you will be disappointed with the results watching it on a big tv. i watched a live volleyball game on my 27" imac yesterday on full screen and it wasnt as good as i had hoped.

that game from 2000 wasnt originally in HD so there is nothing they can do about that

Just got it. why doesn't the video bar and facebook/twitter/email links not go away in full screen mode? I moved my mouse around and left it still but it didn't go away.   :curse:

other than that, its pretty good quality, except some KSTATEO audio glitches

Quick question. Will the Game be linked with the radio audio? I'd rather have radio audio then no audio. If not will they have their own announcers?

i just checked that out because i didnt remember that in the volleyball game yesterday. when i click full screen they go away but if i then move the mouse while in full screen they pop up and dont seem to go away but if i take it off full screen then put it back they are gone until i move the mouse. its prob best to email them im sure its an easy fix they could deal with next week

not sure. they did make a deal about hiring ex kstaters to cover the games but it might be for pregame and halftime stuff

HA! To get the facebook/twitter/pause/etc. to go away, move your mouse up into the grey part of the screen.  :pbj:

Tested on multiple videos.

It's the radio feed for the game. Simoneau is just for pre game show

You can get a free month trial using the coupon code FREEMONTH10.  That's what I did and I'm just gonna cancel my subscription after the game.

Well, I'm trying to launch into the volleyball game to try and get this thing tested out, and it just sits there at loading.

I assume the game may be over or something?

I bought a month at 9.95 to test it out...will come in very handy during bball if the games not on tv or if I'm way out of town.

Key here for everyone who bought it, you MUST cancel before the end of the 30 days or it will automatically renew.

I attached to my tv and it's not a very good picture...probably going to watch it on the puter.

I hooked my laptop to my HDTV via HDMI cable, but how do i get rid of the twitter & facebook buttons when I am in fullscreen mode? (I try to place the mouse over the button & they still won't go away).

Pregame just started, it looks solid so far. I am more than happy... so far.
