Commentary is excellent. No replays during the stream? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't we all moan about the old FTV showing replays during games and then inevitably missing a quick counter last year? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm trying to convince Scott to come to a game with me and this pie might swing it. He has no interest in football at all but is a big fan of doner kebabs. They are good, so are the chicken curry ones. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Honeyman on loan at the Shire - No game at the weekend. Rhys Walker on loan at Camelon - Another goal and assist for him in a 3-2 defeat to Berwick. 16 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NavyBlueArmy1876 Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 The new commentary is far better on FTV but the camera work is still poor. I'm not sure if the in-game replays added much, as mentioned above they would be looped 6 or 7 times and you'd sometimes miss the next attack. Maybe doing them for goals only would be a good compromise? Also no idea why they film from the middle of the lower tier rather than the back of the upper tier like the Alloa highlights. Much better angle for seeing what's going on/ crowd reaction etc. Another thing FTV could improve easily would be a mic just for the crowd noise. Nearly 4.5k there on Saturday and barely any of that atmosphere was fed back on the highlights 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be much better than just a holding screen. Agree about the in play highlights as there were far too many times we were up the other end of the park by the time they'd finished the 9th showing of a shot on goal.

Much better angle for seeing what's going on/ crowd reaction etc. They film from the top of a scaffold tower behind the tannoy operators box. The stadium was designed for that to be the club TV position. There is no room for any other cameras on the platform, so I presume all visiting club cameras are in the back row of the main stand. The FFCTV tower has direct access to cabled broadband, power etc. I'm not so sure about the back row of the stand. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why the Falkirk analyst is up there. Power socket just behind the analyst table. You can see the analyst moving the camera while sitting next to it and it's not ideal for standing behind a camera which is why I control ours from a xbox controller. Got the flexibility to control it from about 10m away if needed which sometimes I need when I bring one of the veo large tripod masts (the only dounside is it's heavy af) to get extra height. Bainsford Bairns photo up there is old. Seats have been removed in that row. Boo. I take a seat on my toolbox with the laptop on my lap. Usually use it as a table next to my seat. You don't even need broadband these days with 5G coverage. We stream the same bitrate we do at home and we only dropped 300 frames - the equivalent of 6 seconds over the 2 hours odd streaming. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I chose it because it was was taken from a cherry picker when the PA system was being renewed so it gave a higher viewpoint than would normally be available. Was one of three I took that day which give an different perspective on the stadium. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would have thought sponsors would prefer that as well, looks like we're playing on a public park at times! 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrDust Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 9 hours ago, LeodhasXD said: No replays during the stream? There was no replays at the start of the season, they suddenly appeared and I think Saturday was the first they disappeared. I said from day one that the zoom of the football area isn't as it was with previous Falkirk TV, someone mentioned similar a few posts back. I generally sit very close to a 40inch TV screen now due to this. There is plus points with the new Falkirk TV but the one thing that lingers about the old team, they experienced everything over the years to know obstacles in their way that it was really only work commitments that seen no Falkirk TV. I hold my breath to see if we will have it at some away grounds and yes I know the line in the conditions re away games. So hopefully the new team will learn this year to improve, one thing at least it's not the automated cameras that were in place in some clubs 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
