We recently upgraded equipment and it will allow us to stream in 1280x720. I also worked out the iPad and iPhon issue and have tested and confirmed the PPV streams works on both platforms with no work arounds. No need for Skyfire or anything else just access it like on any other computer.
This will be the first stream in the higher quality format and I am working on the easiest way for people to use it. The way TAR 32 will work is that there will be two streams available for purchase.
The HD Stream: This is 1280 x 720 at 1.5 Mbps. You need about 2 Mbps download speed to run it smoothly and as always more is usually better.
The SD Stream: This stream is 640x360 at 650 Kbps. You need about 800Kbps to 1Mbps to run this smoothly. This is the same stream we have always run on our PPV's.
To help make things smoother with people watching from different locations over the weekend anyone who buys the HD stream will also have access to the SD stream. This way if someone is watching on their phone somewhere with a lower quality connection they can use the SD stream and then use the HD at home or wherever.
We pay for our bandwidth and the HD stream uses more therefore the price is slightly higher for the HD option. Pricing is below:
Full Match in HD: $40
Full Match in SD: $35
Single day in HD: $18
Single day in SD: $15
We also added a fourth camera to the set up. Below is a shot of the new angle. Top photo is the SD resolution of 640x 360 and the bottom one is the HD resolution of 1280x720. The pictures are grabs from the streams. I am still working on the scoreboard placement and dialing in that camera so the PPV should be a little sharper and the graphic smaller.
SD 640x360
HD 1280x720
We will have a podcast with both guys tomorrow at 9PM Eastern on www.theactionreport.com. The PPV links will be up early tomorrow. If anyone has any questions about the PPV please post them up. I hope everyone will join us this weekend for a great match.
