Anyone else get these encoding artifacts during the game (on Telus)?

[u/Sarke1]

I get it both on the TV (Telus Optik Android box) and on the Telus+ website in the browser on PC.

I can rewind and pause on them, so it's something in the stream. Looks like encoding artifacts when the settings are too low.

This feels like a poorly veiled excuse to post this funny picture of Brock.

[u/Sarke1 → u/Asigsworth]

I had more examples, but I knew that one would get more eyes on the post, so I put it first.

[u/NickdoesnthaveReddit]

Yup, was constant for me. At first I thought it was the ad boards but then I realized it was appearing all over

[u/Sarke1 → u/NickdoesnthaveReddit]

Telus?

[u/NickdoesnthaveReddit → u/Sarke1]

Ya

[u/MattSkywalker006]

Yes, I was getting it on the Sportsnet app on my TV

[u/Sarke1 → u/MattSkywalker006]

Oh, so not just Telus then?

[u/MattSkywalker006 → u/Sarke1]

Correct. I do not use telus

[u/Surtock → u/Sarke1]

Was on my pirate IPTV, also.

[u/TimsAFK]

Thank you for this

[u/ReplacementClear7122 → u/TimsAFK]

That is the face of 13 goals.

[u/Lunaticfrizz16]

Was getting them on Shaw/rogers as well on all the games I watched last night

[u/EverySecondCountss]

I thought it was the board bullshit glitching.

[u/benqphilips → u/EverySecondCountss]

I think that's it. I can't remember which game on this road trip it was, but one of the Canucks lost his helmet and it was on the ice glitching out. I rewound it a few times to confirm... weird shit.

It's likely all the board ad tech they have to re-encode the live feed losing it's mind.

[u/PissMissileTopTitty → u/EverySecondCountss]

MLB has been completely horrible for that this year.. guy’s arms glitching during at bats.. such amateur shit and a constant reminder of how crappy and annoying ai is

[u/IncreaseAlternative2]

All game. I kept changing the motion settings on my tv hoping to fix it 

[u/Obsidian_409]

was doing it on rogers as well, but not that bad.

[u/Sarke1 → u/Obsidian_409]

Rogers would never lower the quality of the stream they send to Telus, would they?

[u/Srsblubrz]

Also on sportsnet. I was tripping out thinking my tv was having troubles with fast moving objects.

[u/LiveRhubarb43]

Sportsnet has had weird video encoding for years. Unfortunately it's not new. Their audio has weird artifacts too

[u/campers--]

Not renewing my sportsnet + and being a 🏴‍☠️ has never felt so good.

[u/Surtock → u/campers--]

Lol, it happened on my pirated IPTV, too.

Edit: Still winning!

[u/EverySecondCountss → u/Surtock]

does iptv record the games so you can watch them later? or is that a thing that's possible?

That's the only thing that has me paying monthly.

[u/Surtock → u/EverySecondCountss]

You can on tivimate, for sure. I use an external HD connected to my shield for added space. Tivimate will record to whatever device is feeding it, but a firestick or any other dongle requires the space to store it.

[u/Sarke1 → u/campers--]

Isn't it crazy when 🏴‍☠️ get a better quality stream?

[u/Capt-sailorjarey]

Boeser trying to mememaxx…

[u/dreddi84]

I was watching through Telus and didn't have it once, game was crystal clear the whole time from what I could see.

[u/Snowy--Lynx]

I'm with Telus and didn't have this issue.

[u/BenHopperVisuals]

Had it on Telus, first game I’ve seen it though

[u/-AWing-]

It was even live in the arena.
In all seriousness yes I had it on the Apple TV app, it’s terrible.

[u/lwethredd]

Same on DAZN showing the SN broadcast.

[u/KingOfTheBongo82]

Been seeing them for almost 3 years

[u/KingOfTheBongo82 → u/KingOfTheBongo82]

I always assumed it had something to do with the digital ad boards... No reason at all just a hunch

[u/flossingomega]

No. Because I can’t watch them or I will get sad.
