Paulco Posted August 1, 2009 Report Share Posted August 1, 2009 He was making mistakes all night-he called Sayfutdinov as last in the semi when he was clearly 3rd. All we need now is Archie smashy to come on and say how brilliant Millard was !! Millard actually wasn't too bad . Him and Johnno were ok . Ok Millard repeats himself a lot , but there was no screaming or cries of WOW . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colincooke Posted August 1, 2009 Report Share Posted August 1, 2009 Why do they continue with this track in the GP, it's crap. Well done Herbie. Brits, oh dear, bottom 2 again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seb the Snail Posted August 1, 2009 Report Share Posted August 1, 2009 Another awful GP track, another lesson in tired cliches and stats that we've heard a thousand times before from Dullard, another set of comments from Louis and Sudden Sam that were about as incisive as a plastic spoon. On nights like tonight I just don't know why I bother. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racers and royals Posted August 1, 2009 Report Share Posted August 1, 2009 If it wasn't for the fact that, i think i am correct in saying, you don't have a problem with the high quality swedish feeds, i would have said this would be an indication of bandwidth problems with the tomcio feed being too high. Not a reflection on your computer but more likely than not an ISP route blockage or traffic cap/throttle going on. Apart from the usual emptying the cache, i've often found when having a problem with any web link (not necessarily video) that doing a simple speedy 'flushdns' can work wonders. Also, fairly easy to do is ipconfig release and renew. At the moment i would be inclined to think it's possibly just the path of the route being taken? It's not really possible for me to hazard many more gueses without knowing more info. Obviously, it would help if next time it happens if you check whether you can receive other high quality feeds from the web whilst the Tomcio one is freezing. At least then we can narrow down the possible causes significantly. Sopcast is never a problem-on Tuesday there was two Tomcio feeds both were freezing the same-i`m pretty sure other people are getting the same problems as me.

On nights like tonight I just don't know why I bother. The racing was a bit of a yawnfest right enough . That usually happens when two gates are crap . The only chance any rider had of winning from gates 2 or 3 was when either Nicholls or Harris was in red or yellow . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manchesterpaul Posted August 1, 2009 Report Share Posted August 1, 2009 Sopcast is never a problem-on Tuesday there was two Tomcio feeds both were freezing the same-i`m pretty sure other people are getting the same problems as me. The Sopcast stream was absolutely fine at my end tonight as well. I only opted for the Tomcio stream because of the high quality in full screen. Maybe it's a bandwidth problem at Tomcio's end if it's ok on a Tuesday but not on the busier Saturday?. However, the snag with that scenario is the fact that where i am in England - or the area of England i'm in (Manchester) it ran superbly. We really need people to state where they are etc. when reporting problems with streams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brummie Kev Posted August 1, 2009 Report Share Posted August 1, 2009 Thought it was a rubbish meeting but im glad Greg Hancock won it. Usual performance from the Brits but all in all a very disapointing GP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bradford Ace Posted August 1, 2009 Report Share Posted August 1, 2009 Sopcast is never a problem-on Tuesday there was two Tomcio feeds both were freezing the same-i`m pretty sure other people are getting the same problems as me. I'm having same probs as u mate. The sopcast feeds from Poland are awesome. Sat last sunday & watched the meeting from Gdansk followed by the one from Bydgoszcz and i think in 4 hrs it froze ever so slightly during one race but nothing to spoil it. The last 2 weeks meetings from Sweden have been impossible to watch. Especially this week when i couldnt get it to run for literally more than 2 seconds before it froze and just wouldnt start again. I live in Bradford by the way!! Hope its Sopcast coverage 2moro for 2 more cracking Polish meetings...esp after 2nite's snoozefest...why they bother with this garbage track i'll never know??

Stevie b Posted August 1, 2009 Report Share Posted August 1, 2009 Manchester-Paul, I am in Devon. The stream I usually watch was not available, so watched the Tomcio stream which was excellent quality but kept freezing to the extent that I gave up. The stream I usally watch has poore quality but rarely freezes. I can only assume that it is to do with the high quality nature of the stream.

Where was Kelv tonight? Where was Nigel Pearson ? -if he`s doing premier league football for Talksport we`ve got Millard for the remaining 5 GP`s-doesn`t bear thinking about !!

youngy105 Posted August 1, 2009 Report Share Posted August 1, 2009 I was watching via sopcast tonight and it was excellent from start to finish. Not sure why Tomcio's feed is ok for some and not for the others. It is streamed in HD though so I guess internet speed will have something to do with it and however many people viewing at the time.

Millard is usually found reporting on a match for the Sky sports centre programme on a Saturday afternoon during the footy season . So i think it could still be Pearson , who is probably just having a wee holiday . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
