Re: sky sports red button
 

off topic Dave but what is your opinion (honest) of Jordan Henderson?

Re: sky sports red button
 

Thanks. Does the red button take you directly to whatever it is or do you get a menu screen showing everything that's on red button?

Re: sky sports red button
 

sorry trying not to get of topic as for JH he ok but he never ever tackles mate his big fault back to topic hope we get red button on football first but we see when season starts not long now

Re: sky sports red button
 

with regards to the golf you press the red button and you get 3 x small live screens and you then just select the one you want to watch,this is really useful when watching multiple champions league matches etc because you can watch all the matches simultainiosly then if there is a goal etc you just select that match.... hope this answers your question.

Re: sky sports red button
 

Menu screen , with three different feeds on golf , feeds are SD I've just checked although its decent PQ .

Re: sky sports red button
 

your right muppetman,I initially thought the feeds were HD but closer look they are SD,and as you say good quality.

Re: sky sports red button
 

I'd love to know if spider plant knows this, but is it possible to provide red button HD feeds as these would be the icing on the cake for the Sky Sports red button.

I wonder if Sirius watched the Rugby League red button , I know how much he likes the Warriors.

Re: sky sports red button
 

There's no technical reason why not (on cable at least, and I can't imagine satellite would be any different).

But commercially I'd guess it's not viable. 14 HD streams wouldn't come cheap. They'd still have to carry SD versions for the majority of users who don't have HD-capable boxes.

(I wonder if Sky have redeployed their old SD production kit on the red button feeds? Would make sense)

Re: sky sports red button
 

Nope because i have Tivo now. Good game tonight.

Re: sky sports red button
 

Would it be possible to say have a mix , so maybe two red button games on match choice in HD with the remainder in SD , at least people would then be able to see the game on the channel in HD plus two more , just wondering my tech knowledge of these things is limited :D

Re: sky sports red button
 

Red Button Tomorrow

Sat 30 July Airtricty XI v Man City (press red button or view online)

Re: sky sports red button
 

! Seems quite high profile for red button, should be interesting to see how City does though.
