if I'm honest, the camera does struggle especially with the light on the Main Stand side of the ground.

It's not the only one.

Maybe when Macc are selling off the family silver we could buy their floodlights.

If you are watching on a tv with internet browser the logo is present unless you maximise the screen bottom right. 
My thoughts are:-
I was really pleased with the portal to see the game, at half time i changed devices and this was seamless.
The picture was good with odd pauses etc, felt like there was only just enough bandwidth at the game so did buffer a little
Sound was good and commentary worked with the pictures
I was disappointed that the chromecast bid doesnt work (the companys fault), it had been my preference to stream from my phone to a large TV.  What happens is that the company logo and a blank screen only is cast not the game that sits within, its an issue with the streaming provider, as i said earlier other ways to do it.
I'd be interested to know those with proper android tv's or apple tvs found it?

Streaming improved second half but the quality on a 50 inch tv did substantially drop. Stability over quality

First half was annoyingly glitchy - we suspect some wifi issues between the camera dongle and streaming laptop. Second half we reduced the bitrate slightly which, as you say, made for a more stable stream but dropped the quality a bit. Looking into ways to solve this for Saturday - best that we pick these things up in 'rehearsal' though.

Thanks for the response, much appreciated. I know everyone is working really hard to make this work. You'll get there I am sure.

Is the live streaming compatible with an Ipad, or does it have to be a laptop? I know sometimes these things don't work on Apple products for some reason.

Hi. We watched it on an apple IPad and it was fine matey.

Will we be getting the usual highlights ? Apart from the fourth goal that we all missed, I would appreciate seeing them slightly enlarged and without a quarter of the screen obscured by the streaming company's banner. This is an important issue for those of use who can only watch on a phone !

Watching on my laptop there is a little sign at the bottom right of the screen to go full screen if that helps.

Apple TV had a dark stripe covering a third of the screen throughout the broadcast. No such problem on the iPad. The quality was as stated above, pretty good, but with a few pauses.

I had the dark stripe on my tv watching through a fire stick. When you clicked the subtitles icon the dark stripe disappeared

The second half started late,missed our 5th goal
Other than that it was ok for your 1st attempt

I'm probably missing something very obvious, but I can't see how to buy a ticket for the stream of the Weymouth game. On the official club website I can find a link to buy tickets for the friendly against Salford, but nothing for Weymouth. Can anyone help?

Also, is it possible to watch the game on demand after the final whistle? I live in Australia so I'd prefer to watch it on Sunday morning which will be around 10pm Saturday night in the UK.

Agreed. It also makes practical sense to not put the details out too far in advance in case of games being postponed for any reason.
