    Guys,

    Looking for a little help here. I'm over in Europe visiting a friend and therefore will be missing the game on Saturday. I've never used the video feed on mlsnet.com to watch a game live, only viewed it after the fact. How is it during the game? Does it even work or will i be plagued by the buffer demon?

    it works pretty good. the resolution isn't that great so if you make it full screen, you will see that block stuff. you may have to buffer a few times but that only happens if there's something exciting going on in the game :p

    would we be better off using the audio feed if they have one?

    no, the video is very good. when i use it, it's the only hting on my computer that's connected to the internet. i find that it buffers less.

    SOmeone informed me last year that in order for europeans to watch the feed they have to do something to the address. Don't remember what or if you still need to.

    Just to get my 2 pence in...I live in England and watch every Metro game online (except for the ESPN game...that i watch on Channel Five the following week at 4:25 am!!)

    Ive never had any problem with the quality of video, as long as u have broadband.

    THey better fix this stupid crap soon....

    At first I thought it was just my computer... Are the Metroz playing at home? It might be because of the weather?

    I don't get why MSG is showing canadian football, I thought they were dedicated to local sports.
