Well if you can’t make event live then you’ll more than likely buy stream.
Just buy the stream and don’t have too high expectations. This is like the Toyota Corolla of streaming, where as the pits are like the Mercedes Benz of streaming.
I just wish they would start the stream minimum an hour before the parade so they can get people to join and then get a stable stream, oh and sort out the usual volume issues they always have, imagine spending time beforehand getting that ready, not during the first 3 races 😂.
I’ve already bought both nights

heard we are getting 6 cameras this year . I think the challenge with multiple cameras is it often leads to directions who arnt speedway fans So they professionally are looking for a clean shot, and when multiple cars enter the frame they shift to a cleaner shot Hence missing all the action. I miss the legend Mark Walsh who was a single camera on top of the referees box who always seemed to get all the action in PN. Unfortunately he hasn’t been involved for a number of years. Fingers crossed they keep wide angles on the corners and and stick with blockers rather than leaders, and follow the two cars from opposite teams chasing each other into the corners. And I think kering Hercules analysis a couple of posts up is on the money

yes i hear wot u saying, i have been streaming this event for the last 5 years, agree a lot of action has not been picked up in the last couple of years, i use to travel to palmy quite often, & that guy standing up there on the home straight with 1 camera was/is an absolute legend . p.s loved his replays .

I’ve already bought both nights Toyota Corolla with Mercedes pricing! Glad I’m going to be there!

Doesn't matter how many cameras you have or how flash your gear is, the BASIC film making rules still apply. eg ...

Crazy how they cut away everytime there's about to be a hit. It's like they want to keep us from seeing the actual action...

I’ll need a motion sickness bag soon as this is even more terrible than I thought they could get. They Wildly swing cameras all over the place, and switch between camera like 3 times a second.
Just a shame they are the ONLY streaming service and this is the best meeting in Nz, means we sorta have to pay if we wanna watch.

The hope is that it would get better each year and they'd maybe learn from feedback. This year is horrific, it's like they have never done it before!

Quality is worse than 2 years ago. Amazing that costs go up and quality goes down. This will be the last time I’ll ever order this. Embarrassing

Seems this is the thread where the Moaners Group has taken up residence. Get a grip guys. Its not the greatest camera work but from where I sit it's a darn sight better than nothing.

Technically the stream is ok, at least not the sound issues etc of other years and quality has been fine but the camera cuts are frustrating

Fair call if your just trying to make peace. I’ve order and paid for the last 5 years through vidhub and this is by far the worst. The last time I attended teams tickets were $25 per night. Here I am paying $60 for a woeful coverage. I’m on unlimited 1 gigabit fibre and I’ve already had to restart the coverage 4 times. Get off your high horse and realise when people complain it really is terrible.

Would be nice to have clear and defined rolls ... There is a huge difference between ...
Commentator / Announcers / Presenters
Which adds to the wholes presentation of the show ... Otherwise its just a bunch of ego's
