Not too bad on mine, but I'm glad I don't have to watch it in SD. Otherwise I thought the coverage was very good. Next week I'll be watching on BTTV so I'm looking forward to checking out the different camera angles etc.

Just had a look at the Valencia v Monaco game on the red button, the quality of the picture is pretty bad, reminds me of Eurosport years ago.

Luckily I'm in HD but just tried the match you refer to in SD and the picture is terrible. Are you getting a kind of strobing effect on the lines ?

Can't even get the red button to work - just got that circle thing in the middle of the screen, been there for a good couple of minutes now.

EDIT: Decided to work after pressing TB a couple of times and then red button. PQ is ordinary at best.

Agreed. Interestingly, beIN have acquired La Liga rights for Poland, a country where they don't run any channels yet. So Poland could be their next outpost but I doubt they can set the channel up in two days, which is when La Liga begins! http://www.broadbandtvnews.com/2015/...ts-blow-to-nc/

Re: ESPN, BT, Euro, Premier and Sky Sports news

For the first time, Sky Sports will show every La Liga match throughout the 2015/16 season, including more than 300 live games, with a comprehensive Spanish football offering across its platforms.

Viewers can watch all matches outside 3pm Saturday blocked hours every week via Sky Sports TV channels, the red button and Sky's digital TV channel, Sky Sports Xtra, which is available to customers through skysports.com and the Sky Sports iPad app.
