Hi all,

What you guys think of ITTF ITTV video quality? It is poor as compared to others such as CCTV5, etc?

Well it is certainly not HD But what can you expect... It takes really professional equipment to deliver HD live coverage. This would be a very expensive investment for the ITTF, and they don't get any income back for it, since the livestream is free to watch. Considering the fact that the livestream barely ever lags, and even has a scoreboard or camera on the scoreboard as well most of the time, I think we don't have the right to complain about ITTV

Hmm..
In my opinion, watching it.. they definitely use HD equipment!
The second thing is - they do not stream HD...
At their place, I would do this:
1. Continue free streaming with this resolution.
2. Add VIP membership on their site, with some taxes, where you would be able to watch in HD. You would pay annually or every month some money to get HD.

I dont think that users wouldnt pay back what would be needed to do this.
Easy solution and they would have even money from it

And .. probably I would also stream more tables on VIP
