Drew Peacock Posted September 16, 2019 Report Share Posted September 16, 2019 Has anyone used this when on an aeroplane? I would be interested to know how you got on? Also, do you know how many MB a game takes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christ! At £15 for 150mb I think I will be relying on texts from my boys! Thanks for the info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, Virgin Atlantic. But I have now found out different planes in the fleet have different pricing structures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Robin Posted September 16, 2019 Report Share Posted September 16, 2019 Talking about RobinsTV....there are two aspects that maybe someone here can clarify to me: - the midweek matches are broadcasted by Sky (red button) and also by RobinsTV, but I can't watch a match that is sold to a channel of my country, right? - the OS says that the monthly subscription can be cancelled from the user's account: is it possible to ''reactivate'' the subscription some months later from the account, or is it necessary to send an e-mail, register again or use other methods?

Video can be a little more spotty but that can be similar watching us on your phone while driving. Someone else behind the wheel of course!!

JackofromSanJavier Posted September 16, 2019 Report Share Posted September 16, 2019 I've just run with auto renewal for my overseas subscription. I can't find any audio coverage on the site for those days when the Murcian wifi isn't running strongly enough to stream live video feed. Also, if I'm out and about and having to jump onto the village bars wifi (not a very strong service) I used to be able to listen live and accept the fact that I couldn't watch the game live. Is this because they've done away with the audio stream altogether on BCTV? If so, I missed that snippet of information.

Norn Iron Posted September 17, 2019 Report Share Posted September 17, 2019 And the only way I can find the audio channel on the main site via laptop is to go into the FAQs and find the audio button there. Anyone else have problems finding it? Also, who decided to make the dog digital on screen graphic) is Robins TV that big in top right hand corner? No wonder it's now free to watch if that is the quality of the video. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have successfully streamed from an internal US flights where the picture wasn’t great but not bad for 30,000ft. They are pretty well equipped for inflight WiFi on those type of flights. Tried a few times on Virgin Atlantic to catch the end of matches after streaming on mobile data and it’s hopeless and expensive - in fact I wouldn’t bother with their WiFi at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I quite liked the commentary myself. It was a bit like the Old Grey Whistle Test from the 70s. Whispering Bob Harris, with Annie Nightingale adding a few thoughts a few feet away from the mike. Quite soothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
