HockeyTV

Like an expensive version of LiveBarn but with fewer options and less reliability! Can’t zoom in so only way to find players by number is to watch it in landscape. If watching on landscape, recording controls disappear. Makes getting highlight clips virtually impossible. It does let you “mark” a segment that you’d like to find to record but the above and below issues prevent it. Can’t advance in increments, only option is a slide bar. When advancing with the slide bar, the video doesn’t advance so you don’t know where you are until you stop. No panoramic view option. Only way to watch is with camera following action. Needless to say any action ahead or or behind the pack can be out of camera view. Unfortunately anywhere they use this, they lock out LiveBarn users. I guess if this is the only option to watch your kid play, open your wallet and prepare to be annoyed/disappointed.

I made the mistake of subscribing for a year, thinking I’d save some cash. I blame myself for not reading the reviews before starting a subscription. Trying to watch the games I actually wanted to watch was difficult. I thought I was watching what I wanted and later found out it was actually a year old game (and I used ‘today’ as my filter. The sound, and at times, the video, cut out on me, and then the whole feed froze on me. I cancelled my subscription and was told that I could not receive a refund-the beat they could offer me was to turn off auto renewal.
