NFL Sunday Ticket streaming service
Does anyone here use their PS4 or Xbox One to stream NFL Sunday Ticket?
Last season I had it on my PS4, and the video & audio quality was terrible. The video was clear, for the most part, but you could tell that you were watching internet streaming video in that the "frame rate" was not smooth once things moved across the screen or the camera panned across. Sometimes there was an issue with the stream jumping back like 10 seconds, and it constantly doing this for a few minutes or so. In terms of audio, it was like it was set to 'mono' or something (it was not). The whole experience was ridiculous.
>> I was wondering if anyone else had success streaming the Sunday Ticket to their console?
Also I am wondering if it is better on Xbox One. On my PS4, many people have claimed there is a download speed cap for the console -- I seem to experience that myself. On my laptop over Wi-Fi I can pull down ~90 Mbps; but on my PS4, consistently only in the range of 25-33 Mbps (but not uncommonly less than that). I never once had a problem, not even any kind of serious buffering, while watching full HD content on Netflix. Not to mention Sony made the stupid decision to go with 2.4 GHz band Wi-Fi and not 5 GHz, SMH.
(And I didn't get to try it with NFL ST, but on my laptop using ethernet cable, I consistently get a whopping 180 Mbps; but on my PS4, only 37-43 Mbps.)
>> Anyone on Xbox One have a full-HD TV-like viewing experience with the Sunday Ticket? Wonder if the NFL's partnership with MS gives Xbox users the hookup on better service, like how EA's partnership gives Xbox users slightly better looking EA Sports games...

). Since speedtests on my laptop are a good 3-4x faster than my PS4, I think I'll start out with the cheaper laptop streaming first and just connect via HDMI. If I hear of improvements on console streaming have been made, I will upgrade to that later.
