HenryW 1,178 Posted August 2, 2019 (edited) 1 hour ago, jenga said: so how are they going to know if you live within the 50 mile zone ? My best guess is that they are using an HTML5 geolocation service based on the text on the live stream page, which states the following: "You may buy access to the stream from any location however your internet browser will request your location before loading the stream player. If your location is unavailable, or your deny access to your location, you will not be able to view the stream." Those services are pretty accurate on many devices but not so much if you are using a device without wifi or gps capability, but I guess they are happy that's good enough. An example of the deficiency of this system is that when I am using my VDI at work in central Edinburgh, it would almost always show as being outside the 50 mile range due to the way we choose to route our network traffic. Normally our traffic exits from one of our datacentres in Southern England and IP geolocation is the only option available on that device...although, knowing my luck, if I was ever working a Friday night we'd be routing out our Edinburgh datacentre that day .

Cj69 333 Posted August 3, 2019 Surely a proxy server would get around it? There is the odd meeting I cannot attend but would happily pay to watch it from home. Was an OK meeting on a difficult track with several riders finding it hard at times. Auty and Allen never troubled scorers and despite reserves scoring well scunny never in with a shout. Pat on the back to Ayres tho great meet for him and had a good chat with before the meeting. Monarchs done what was needed. Masters, Wells, Heeps and Picko as expected Sarj looked very slow and apart from heat 2 Lawson was nowhere (altho his crash won't have helped). Another unlucky night for Coles who fell on the very last bend while leading heat 2. He will get there and worth persevering with. Track prep was all wrong today far to heavy and looked like watered to much, hopefully sorted for next week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shrimmy 143 Posted August 3, 2019 Haven’t looked at the mathematics but can our boys put everything into at least trying to get into the playoffs..I think they are under achieving with the quality they are capable of...so frustrating Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shrimmy 143 Posted August 3, 2019 Allen Barker auty as heat leaders then Ayres who can chuck in big scores and then lambert with his experience at reserve is chucking in the odd big scores and we are still losing...I’m erm Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Good to see some forward thinking from the Promotion though. Why would you have a 50 mile exclusion zone anyway ? Is it just to stop fake Glasgow fans watching them ?
