Stay away from microwave ovens and other potential interference sources too. Cheers Desert. Should be all good to go with the Chromecast. I know that some streaming services (mainly SKY) do not function with Chromecast. Thought id check that the HeartsPPV provider doesn't block it too.

DesertDawg Posted January 13, 2023 Share Posted January 13, 2023 Not a great game but the constantly depressing commentary and criticism of the Hearts' players was dreadful. It was endless. I enjoyed the game better once I switched the sound off. We're paying for pictures guys.......we don't need a running commentary of every kick with an analysis of what went wrong. The basics are enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The basics are enough. The feed also goes to UK subscribers which is audio only, that's why they need to provide so much description. I love Hearts TV and I think Laurie does a fantastic job. I'm not a fan of Fowler though if I'm being honest. Edited January 13, 2023 by andrew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DesertDawg Posted January 13, 2023 Share Posted January 13, 2023 If I'd had audio only then I'd probably have felt that it was one of the worst displays ever at Tynecastle. It wasn't good but it wasn't that bad either with a clean sheet, an excellent goal and another three points on the board. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I prefer Sandison to Fowler ("hit, hit, hit" 😄) but I don't think the commentary was overly negative. Fowler's issue is the thing that probably makes him work on the terrace/etc, he's got that media-trained happy vibe. Even when he's moaning he kinda sounds like he's smiling. He's not done the commentary much to grow into it tbf. Laurie does a great job. If he's had media training he hides it well, and if he's never had media training he hides it well. A fine balance between a radge in a pub and a man delighted by the presence of air. God knows how you can read a lot of what gets posted on here if you found that commentary negative.

I'll make a point of checking that out on the presentation, which will probably be the Rangers game. If it is a problem, it should be a simple fix to a change of mic that has a wider receiving pattern. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's live on Viaplay. I subscribed for a month as an Amazon Prime channel add-on @ £14.99 rather than faffing about with a separate sub. A one-month sub will get you up to the fifth round games, assuming they're on Viaplay. I think you can subscribe directly on their website too.
