I hadn't double checked beforehand and was not aware that we definitely have video for Saturday. I can confirm now that we DO have video on Saturday though! Based on tonight is that good or bad news though...? ? Thanks Laurie.... ye maybe make me more depressed than tonight’s performance.. we true jambos always come back for more punishment though ?

JamboJen Posted March 9, 2019 Share Posted March 9, 2019 Mine doesn't even buffer, just stops completely as though the feed has ended and takes a couple of minutes of refreshing to get it back without the "file could not be played" message.

DesertDawg Posted March 9, 2019 Share Posted March 9, 2019 Absolutely no problems with the stream here. Leads me to believe that there was signal loss and possibly browser compatibility issues in the transfer from Dee TV that caused problems for others. The problems do need to be addressed by Hearts TV though well before the game. Once more it seems that no testing was done until 5 minutes before. K.O.

That’s unfortunate— I though the international subscription covered all home games. Will a full video get posted on the website following the game that I could watch that night if I avoided learning about the result? I’ve seen this happen lately, and hoping that is an option, especially since I’d be at work during the match anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DesertDawg Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 Something wrong there. Rangers TV showing this. Rangers v Aberdeen Live Audio commentary available for fans worldwide. Kick Off 19:45:00 £1.99 / US $2.59 Red TV also showing "Live Commentary" only. But, the real question is, "What imbecile at UEFA thinks that by blocking live video of a Scottish Cup tie replay in North America interferes with the viewing figures of Manchester City v Schalke or Juventus V Atletico Madrid?"

Sharky999 Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 How can Uefa influence what i watch in Australia? As far as i knew it only applied to games being shown in the country they were played in and if it involved one of the home nation teams. there is absolutey zero reason showing the game on Hearts world for me to view in Australia will have an adverse impact on the professional money grabbers. ludicrous Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laurie Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 There is a fine for screening live games during the Champions League, which the English clubs can afford due to the size of their TV deal. Unfortunately Scottish clubs cannot, which is why Hearts TV, Rangers TV and Red TV are all providing audio only coverage tonight. There are solidarity payments given from UEFA for now showing games when the UCL is on live, which I believe are then reduced or removed if a country breaks that agreement. I don't know the exact figures but basically the Scottish clubs can't afford to take the financial hit from UEFA when it comes to the Champions League restrictions, whereas the English clubs can. Very frustrating, I know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fraggle Rock Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 Update on the Hearts website and posted on another thread. Following more discussions with the relevant parties, the club can issue a further update with regards to when footage from tonight's William Hill Scottish Cup QF replay between Hearts and Partick Thistle can be broadcast online. Because the match takes place during an UEFA restricted period, it cannot be be broadcast live on HeartsTV. However, it has been agreed that from 10.15pm this evening the full match replay can be made available to international subscribers. The club will endeavour to post the full match replay as quickly as possible from 10.15pm. Highlights and goals will be available to international subscribers from 10am tomorrow, Wednesday 13th. All footage available inside the UK & Ireland, be it on HeartsTV or social media, will be online 24-hours after tonight's full time whistle. Live audio commentary from Tynecastle with Laurie Dunsire and Jimmy Sandison will be available for all HeartsTV subscribers tonight from 7.30pm.

DesertDawg Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 Thanks Laurie. I guess it is what it is but it's still frustrating. I guess the solution is to make sure that the SFA / SPFL check the Champions League schedules BEFORE scheduling any fixtures? On the (mildly) positive side, the announcement on the club's WEBsite https://www.heartsfc.co.uk/news/article/updated-scottish-cup-live-coverage-1 is welcome. Maybe we could get something like this prior to EVERY game? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worth noting as well, Hearts (and the other Scottish clubs) receive a directive from the SFA which instructs them not to show any live games during the scheduling of Champions League or Europa League matches. So the governing body issue the guidelines to be followed to each member club. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
