Speedway should not be messing about with streaming - be it individual clubs or the sport in general.  It's a stupid idea

I can't tell whether this is sarcasm or not?! Speedway should be doing much much more streaming, you'd have to be on another planet to think otherwise.

How do they stream? Is there the bandwidth to stream BSN and Edinburgh?

I don’t know. If they are sensible, they will use a 4G load balancer that can connect to multiple operators. Would be dangerous to rely on host stadium WiFi for a product you charge for. You always want these things in your own control.

Why wouldn't they just share the EMTV feed? Seems mad.

That would require coordination, not something Brits are known for. My response was more about the general setup across the different racetracks to be honest. There would be practical considerations to sharing a feed, but not insurmountable if planned and both sides thought it was in their interests.

What's going on is it the track? I know I make light of it on occasion but it's still usually well prepared and tend to see pretty few incidents

Very strange isnt it?

Both going for exactly the same market... (?)...

As Edinburgh stream anyway it doesnt seem to make much sense to show exactly the same meeting...

Neither wins surely?

Updates are saying Shanes has withdrawn from the meeting due to not having a helmet left after he damaged 2. Surely someone has one that fits him?:blink:

Don't worry about the bandwidth, with the 3 withdrawn riders, only 2 riders in Heat 8 and 4 of the remaining races only featuring 3 riders, I'm sure it will cope. :-o 

Ironic that it's at Edinburgh, isn't it? Home of the great Train Robber who, in his role as BSPA Chairman, instructed the Birmingham Brummies web site to be closed down, apparently because it was too bandwidth hungry, and made the BSPA servers struggle, back in 2013. :rofl:

Reading the updates, Blair sounds like he shouldn't be near a bike with no brakes.. Has wiped out most of the other riders so far!
