Mind if I ask what you paid for the year?

Anyone know what resolution GAAGO streams at? I am watching the Armagh game and although the stream is consistent, no buffering so far, it does not look like very high resolution.

If it's a proper service the stream resolution will respond to your bandwidth. As it sends stuff you way, a small signal is sent back to let the streamer, which measures your speed and dictates whether SD/HD/FHD is the right one.

it's fine for me me today, but gaago is generally all over the place. You never know what you're going to get in terms of quality.  But there's nowhere else to go, is there?

[Jell 0 Biafra]

I stream live sports at HD all the time. I don't have cable.  But gaago is the only weak link.

Adaptive streaming. I don't think it uses that.

The stream for the Kerry Dublin game yesterday was good but so far the Armagh Tyrone game is very poor. It is breaking up a lot

It improved as the half wore on, it's (there or thereabouts) HD quality now.

I missed Armaghs first goal with the glitches but as you say getting better as the game goes on.

That's some crowd at the game.

[Baile an tuaigh]

Every time something exciting happens computer goes out. This is the worst experience I had with gaago.

[An Watcher]

Trying to watch it back here now but no good

[Hound]

Deferred coverage just started on tg4.

[An Watcher]

Aye but have to wait for an hour for the kimsy

I was trying the 2 week free trial but after the awful stream for the Armagh Tyrone game I decided not to go ahead with the annual pass. For those of you have used GAAGO in the past, was the quality of that game unusual/a one off or is that what I should expect if I subscribe for the year?
