Anyone who can post here should be able too, speed dependant, get a Sky stream to watch games. Get Mobdro if you've an android tablet or phone. I think it'll work on an i-Pad or i-Phone but not certain. GreenandRed (Mayo) - Posts: 7360 - 05/08/2016 09:13:24 1896022 Link 0 |
Considering the coverage of GAA is so poor by RTE why would the GAA tie their hands and not renew with SKY? Sky coverage and punditry is much better and more positive than RTE. witnof (Dublin) - Posts: 1604 - 05/08/2016 09:17:58 1896024 Link 1 |
The speed is the issue though. I've used Mobdro at home before to watch Premier League games and it has been ok at best. Coverage will stall, or the stream will drop altogether at times. Now I wouldn't have been all that bothered at the time because it was just some soccer match I only had a passing interest in. But for the likes of a Donegal Dublin match if it was at the same craic it would drive me demented!

Yes they should but RTE didn't purchase them . Your quarrel is with RTE not The GAA or SKY.

Has anyone any experience with the GAA Go app? I know it's only available outside of Ireland but a bit of fiddling with IP settings should get around that. Lockjaw (Donegal) - Posts: 9155 - 05/08/2016 11:06:42 1896106 Link 0 |
50% of the country refuse to pay 30 euro a week for water and you want them to pay for GAA matches. Speed of broadband is a big issue for us rural folk. We can get the streaming alright but it ok for soccer when you might have a goal every hour - not really suitable for a Dubs match. wonit1time (Westmeath) - Posts: 450 - 05/08/2016 11:43:58 1896129 Link 0 |
True unfortunately. I'm using a Vodafone dongle which is grand posting here but slow and patchy on Mobdro. I'd stubbornly vex myself restarting it again to watch bits of a match rather than just listen on the radio.

I know rightly I'm gonna have the same problem tomorrow. At least I'll be able to road-test it a bit first with your match against Tyrone! And the mighty Newcastle's match against Fulham tonight! Lockjaw (Donegal) - Posts: 9155 - 05/08/2016 15:44:11 1896287 Link 0 |
I came upon Kodi recently which, with it's attendant add-ons should be able to provide a stream of Sky sports channel which is acceptable. I only have a Vodafone dongle add-on as well and it does fairly well on it. Midleton (Cork) - Posts: 643 - 05/08/2016 15:50:22 1896292 Link 0 |
The Sports Devil add-on for Kodi is one of the best and gives you a large choice. Midleton (Cork) - Posts: 643 - 05/08/2016 15:53:02 1896294 Link 0 |
Cheers! If Mobdro isn't doing the business then I'll check that out.
