Is it possible for a PPV streamer to show a free test one can watch before the PPV starts? This way you get to see the quality of the stream you want to purchase. Johnnyt
 
What the hell is a PPV Steamer test. Did someone name a new STD exam after me?
You can't be using peoples name without permission you know.

Time to get into that business, Tramp...
TRAMP STREAMER....it's a miracle if it aint froze.
 
Not sure they want to give a test ride for a stream that costs a whopping fifteen bucks.
 
If fifteen dollars is breaking the bank, there isn't time to watch a stream because that means they are working two jobs...

So many wealthy people on here...until their PPV freezes. Then it's not cheap anymore. Then you hear the sound of stuck pigs. Most on here don't even buy PPV. Johnnyt

I do. Often. And appreciate their hard work for what has to be a meager profit. Never cried once that I can remember and always make sure I thank the guys who put on the free stream. Crying about it seems like a waste of time. I'm lucky that the pool hall I frequent gets all of the major streams. When it freezes one of us gets off our ass and fixes it. Pretty simple.
 
I guess I'm lucky. I've never had problems really to speak of except one of the overseas 10 ball tourneys.

You can't fix something that's not on your end. I suppose all 7 days of the U.S Open 9 Ball came in loud and clear for you. Johnnyt
 
Far from an expert with these streams but it seems to me though a test may be pointless??? I guess if it is being streamed I'd HD maybe u could check out the quality of that but as far as all of the freezing issues the test wouldn't prove anything one way or the other right? Can't the " freeze happen at any point during the event, and a " test " would only prove the stream is not frozen at that very second, not gonna be any type of guarantee what will happen 20 seconds later though ? ??

Something like that could probably be worked out, but at the same time that's no guarantee that the stream is going to stay that way.

There's two folks who have it figured it out:

1. Big Truck

2. TVmike

everyone else is hoping for the best or taping from their iphone. I trust these two guys,

Good for you. I vote POV as better. Anyone that advertises a help line for issues with their stream has too many issues for me to consider their stream. It lends one to believe there will be problems
 
I don't care if it costs $3 or $3000, if I buy something from you, it better work or I expect my money back. Especially, if everybody who is subscribing is having the same difficulties.

I am a communications guy. I have talked to airplanes 10,000 miles from me during all sorts of weather conditions and propagation. I have operated radios located on the other side of the world through phone lines, microwaves, underwater cables, radio circuits and satellites. It may have taken some adjustments to my equipment and antennas, but I usually got it to work. If it didn't work, I could tell with great confidence and accuracy whether it was MY problem or YOURS.

Excuses are for people who can't reliably provide a product to their customers. You can't expect the reliability of a Rolls Royce if your equipment and setup is that of a Ford Pinto. When you go into an establishment to run a PPV, you can't rely solely on them to provide adequate bandwidth. You have to test it first. If they don't have it, you have to provide your own and pay for it. If you can't make a profit and provide the service, then don't offer your stream.

Believe it or not I have to spread some around before giving you green.
