jellydog Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 My friend in the states just confirmed that her only option for watching the CL is Univision, a Spanish TV station, with Spanish commentary. Boggles the mind ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
larry70dj Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 Why blame True? They lost the CL to Bein but Bein used True as a distributor for their product. It’s hardly their fault that Bein lost out to Dazn. The CL rights are virtually worthless in Thailand as the time difference means the games are always in the middle of the night and have few viewers. Goal.com which is being used as a distributor for the Dazn rights had a lot of streaming issues for the first two days matches. A lot was to do with Flash being blocked by some Internet browsers. They haven’t even listed this weeks games in their website yet and may not even show them if they can’t guarantee a stream. Facebook will do better with the EPL but interested to see how they will monetize their asset. I can’t see them giving it away for free, so expect some games to be shown as a subscription.

As far as I know, they don't charge anyone for anything anywhere at the moment, although there has been talk of an ad-free version. But the money they've paid, 200 million sterling I think, isn't even loose change to a company worth billions. I'm guessing they are using the Thailand/Laos/Cambodia/Vietnam deal as a test for making a larger bid for other territories later. Meanwhile, I believe that Amazon has the rights to one week of the EPL matches in December, plus some of the Christmas/New Year period, and I wonder how that will impact seeing matches in Thailand. Not long to wait to find out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you think about it, not everyone has a TV, or a laptop, but the number of people that have access to Facebook in some form is massive = huge advertising potential.

I have a basic TrueVisions package that came free with my True Fibre Optic internet subscription. It only includes one of the beIN Sports channels but for an extra 199 Baht a month you can get all of them. As others have said, the quality (full HD) and reliability (no buffering, no loss of quality, no worry about availability) are great. It also came with a box with time-shift and programmable recording features - you have to provide your own USB storage device to take advantage of this but that's no biggie. I was a bit annoyed to lose the UEFA games but my main interests are the Premier League and Spanish La Liga so for a cost of 199 Baht a month I don't think there's a better deal around.

If it’s Premier League and La Liga should have bought a Chromecast and just subscribed to Bein Sports Connect which has both, perfect legal streams.

I have a Chromecast and used to have beIN Sports Connect. It's the same price, but doesn't give you time-shift (where you can pause or rewind live TV) or programmable recording. Having used both, I would say beIN Sports Connect doesn't give the same value for money as the True Visions subscription. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

damole Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 I navigated my Firefox to the two English Champions Leage games on goal.com yesterday and left them with the countdown displaying hoping to wakeup to watch the games this morning but when I clicked play just now I got the following message, I don't know if this is just because the live stream has ended. Yesterday it was impossible to find the streams of the previous night's games without seeing the scores so I watched on footballorigin. Last season I was impressed by BeinConnect just because there was a reasonbly priced legal way to watch football, now CL is gone and the quality hasn't improved I'm still happy but a little less so.

Bangkok Barry Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 Someone I know was able to watch the match using an IPTV box that someone set up for after he posted that he had had enough of HDPrime and their constant excuses for poor service. He not only set up the box (2500 baht) but then added a Kodi app which allows football catch-ups. The PL catch-up doesn't work at present but CL does. He uses the Kodi as back-up when, for example, the BT Sport catch-up developed problems at the end of the first half. The service costs 1500 for three months and in the five weeks he's had it it's brilliant. All the UK channels you can shake a stick at plus many back-ups and hundreds of other tv channels and movies. He's happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also tried PL Debate on Full Matches and, ignoring numerous diversions to dating and game websites, the quality was brilliant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to agree to this or it will go no further, I am guessing it knows where I am and says "not available in your country" Is there a way to navigate around this?
