Im pretty sure it can be done by calling in instead of doing it over the net. But the HD looks great compared to last years.

I'll join you in your room Rog.

I think BBC are doing even more on the interactive red button too. They were starting to do more towards the end of last season when they started covering qualifying and doing features (such as Steve Parish test riding the Suzuki GSR-V and (I believe) The Kawasaki too.

They also did a great feature last year when an MCN journo got to swing his leg over an 'old' RCV 990.

Man I remember the days when coverage was non existent, apart from the home GP of course.

About time too!

that sounds great ! do you remember the Jurgen van den Goorbergh tech bit they used to do, that may have been when channel 5 showed the gp,not sure. julian does a bit sometimes . i would like to see a regular slot for the tech bits
 
the commentators on BBC are so boring though!

"oh look. . .Randy De Puniet just tried to overtake Toni Elias. . ."

Yeah, you're right. But Eurosport is where it's at for the race (apart from the ad breaks when a 2 minute hop over to the Beeb is in order).

The Steve Parrish articles were good last year - on a par with Julian. In fact, weren't they the original E/Sport duo before Toby came along?

Just by the high def up front.

I bought it a couple of days ago. I watched Mugello 2007 again--I never knew Stoner was wearing two different boots for that race.

That's the power of high def.

what internet connection speed do you need to stream hi-def ?
 
Can anyone tell me how live feeds are when everyone is trying to watch the race...even more so in high def? They have to have a pipe out of there that would have De Angelis salivating
<
. I don't know how they are going to do it. Surfing broadcast their competitions with a live feed on the internet and during the peak broadcast times it is very laggy. Annoying as hell.

I've called in a few times about 2 years ago cause i was having problems signing in after purchasing the package.. They were not returning my emails during race weekend so i did some research and found the number for dorna in Spain. i'll see if i could find it.. and i'll post it up.


try this site here.
I made a few phone calls so i don't know which one of these was it.

They recommend a minimum of 1100kbps down.

I have fiber optic (window dressing, it's not much better than the T of your preference), but its not working right now.

Somebody at Verizon is getting a call. At least they refund days of service for business customers. Still a pain even if they reduce your bill.
 
Yea wats the deal can somone fill me in on this

? i wanna watch the season this year but i live in the states. do i have any other option other than motogp.com for live feeds..Thanx guys and gals
 
MotoGP in HiDef. Wow. .i am tempted. does anyone know if the races are broadcast in HiDef anywhere in thw world on TV?

About the internet download, once purchased, can it be shared? i.e. What if more than one person had knowledge of the login and pasword? Does dorna check to see if there are 2 simultaneous signons? Or that 3 different IP addresses have accessed the same account?

TIA

Not hi definition. I don't know where that came from.
It's just hi res. 720 x 576 in widescreen format. instead of the cheaper 380 x 284
Big difference.

BTW crvlvr - I access my account on motogp from home and at work and have never had any drama's. I'm picking as long as you are not on under the same account all at the same time, you will have no probs signing on from various locations. I can log in on my missus computer whilst I'm logged in already, but we would have the same ip address I think.
