Capital OTB TV Streaming Problems
 
Wondering if anyone else is having problems watching the morning programming stream from Capital OTB's site or app? Since the Saratoga meet started, when I log on to the page with their video player, the space on the page where it should be is blank. When I try viewing via stream.capitalotb.com, I usually get an error message that media player cannot play the file or I can see the video and don't get audio with it. When I try from their app, it is hit and miss, with an error loading media message or frequent freezes when the video does play. Between computers, tablets and phones, I have 5 devices and can't reliably watch their programming on any of them. I have no other issues with video or audio of any kind from any sources.

We have another post from a week or two ago that gives some addresses for streams from Capitol OTB. It is hit or miss. Sometimes if one doesn't work, another will. No rhyme or reason.

Yes, I have used those links successfully in the past. These problems just started when the Saratoga meet began. No settings have been changed on any of my devices that would result in these problems. Just wondering if others are having issues?

Yes, I'm flaky. It's not just you.

I am having the same problem. I used to enjoy the morning shows during the Saratoga meet.

I've found my tablet works better than computer.

I started a thread earlier as the show is great. I'd pay for them to get it right just for the content.

If you're not there it is the best!

On your tablet, are you accessing it from the page on their site with the video player or via the stream.capitalotb.com URL?

I was able to watch the programing this morning on my laptop. Steve and Seth on loose on the lead.OTB TV Video player was working.

They have a JW Adobe Flash player on the site but the volume is about 40% of any other stuff. Also, it's not that quick unless you have a good connection.

I think they're trying. I'm sure they have many times the traffic during Saratoga then at other times.

FWIW, I've been able to watch the stream from the site's player in Firefox the last two days. That's the only browser working for me, but it has been good with no freezing issues.
