They are probably getting hammered and maybe don't know what kind of demand to expect. I'd cut them some slack.

Quite a bit of buffering. If you are going to charge $35 dollars you better have the equipment.

Not bad for heats but getting worse through features. The A is terrible. Go figure.

Not one issue all night with it.  Could possibly be your internet?  No issues since it's started for me.

No buffering issues here, but for the $$$ the quality is terrible. Compared to Xsan.tv (HD), Circle Track, and other streaming racing sites...etc.... it's like I'm watching stock footage from VHS in the 1980s. would think they could have improved the quality for this one event. I can understand it looking like this during the other Dirtvision/Turn2 races, but not the Nationals!

Did anyone else randomly skip to the end of the A feature? We went from Kraig Kinser blowing up to Gravel riding 3/4 to the checkered in a 10-second period. Quality is pretty ugly, I agree, but it's what we have right now. I guess it's better than nothing.

I found the apple iPod stream much crisper.  Buffering started for me in the B but I switched seamlessly to the iPad and finished like that.  Disappointing to have to do that but I ll be prepared tommorow.   It be better if they built in a buffer I don't care if I'm ten minutes behind just make the stream crisp.

I used it last Saturday night.  At first I used it in Internet Explorer 8 on a WinXP Pro laptop. Buffering became a nightmare.  Emailed tech support and they suggested using Firefox or Google Chrome. I re-opened it in Chrome and had no more problems.....

Seems the promoters or tracks should screen such video providers to insure quality overall. There are good ones out there, I never have an issue with the Perris videos and USAC live is pretty good. For an event this big and for the price charged to video subscribers, the product should be high quality. I am sure you could experience load issues, but its not up to the subscribers to "test" the system on race day.

Agree with all the thoughts, but there must have problems there for everyone tonight, Started out listening to KNIA, it dropped and I could never get it back so switched to Dirtvision audio feed. Was better,not great though
