How to watch

Resolution depends on the screen: HD is plenty on a phone or laptop, and 4K is worth it only on a 4K monitor or TV. Fast action cut together from several cameras and venues is the real test, and a 60fps feed handles it. If it doesn't suit you, the 7-day money-back guarantee applies, and because plans are prepaid there's nothing to cancel later.

Dial in the MacBook for PBA

On a computer, use the player's full-screen mode and plug in to Ethernet if you can. If fast action cut together from several cameras and venues tears or stutters, turn on hardware decoding in the player settings.

If the stream stutters

  • Move to Ethernet or 5 GHz Wi-Fi before the next one.
  • Pause other downloads and video calls in the house during the broadcast.
  • Drop from the 4K to the HD version of the channel; it needs less than half the bandwidth.
