Anyone else watching the live streams over the next few days? Burnley v Man City and Palace v B’mth on tonight. Picture quality is pretty poor, I’m on 40mb fibre! It’s definitely not 1080p that’s for sure, somewhere between SD and 720 with a poor frame rate.

I’ve actually had better quality illegal streams of games recently, to be honest the only thing going for it so far is you can choose whoever you want to see, so it’s the mighty AFCB tonight and Banter FC Thursday.

I've had this fuss before with Prime, if you click the cog icon at the top it will tell you there's a reason it isn't in HD.

DRM needs to be enabled in your browser, everything needs to be HDCP compliant and you need an up to date browser. Wasn't working for me just now as my monitor/cable are HDCP compliant but it wasn't showing up as such in the Nvidia console - it is after reboot - as for the browser, I use something else that's based on Firefox which it wasn't working in, so I'm using regular Firefox instead. Working perfectly now, liking the stats.

Not sure if there's anything in this, but you get the quality options when you play something non-live on Prime, may be worth playing something to make sure it is set to Best (6.84GB per hour)

I’m not watching on a browser, I’m using a Firestick, the original small HD one.

Also watching the Utd Spuds game, quality appears better than last nights Palace Cherries game but still nowhere near Sky HD quality. And as above Jim Rosenthal! he’s a bit rusty me thinks.

Picture quality seems better today but still not up with Sky HD.

Yep it’s ste, and despite having fibre BB and at least 50mb it falls over at least once in every game I’ve watched. Picture is nowhere near Sky HD either.

I think the picture quality issue in the game is whatever Amazon are using to compress their signal as it’s fine when it’s just the discussion at the end with nothing moving,
