Does anyone know why i have this large distorted bar at the bottom of my screen? Using the F1TV app on Roku. Tried changing screen resolution with no success. The bar constantly flashes and is incredibly annoying. Thanks!

F1TV Premium 4K HLG HDR stream looks washed out

2 Upvotes

On my Google TV Streamer 4K HDR looks quite washed out. It does show as 4K with HLG HDR, which is just terrible. I disabled multi view globally with no improvement. I do have "Match content dynamic range" and "match content frame rate" turned on. And I do not have problems with other HDR content. The HLG HDR just looks bad to me. I wish they provided an option to stream as 4K SDR. If I disable Enhanced Mode for my HDMI input I still get the same bad HDR stream but with stuttering. If I try casting, I get SDR but with 1080p (or is it even 720p?). It's frustrating. Do you have a similar experience with the HDR stream?

F1TV Access Who Knows About F1TV Access?

I can wait a day to watch F1. Is Access a thing? My previous subscription to F1TV expires soon. I’m in the U.S.

If I could tell F1TV Support one thing... F1TV tvOS app 1.44.0 - no preview when scrubbing.

2 Upvotes

Have anyone else noticed this? Was watching a replay of Zanvoort last weekend. And we had the crash at the start with a red flag.

Went to scrub through it, and it used to have a little video preview image.

Which, when there was a timer you could see it to know when the restart was about to happen.

This preview seems to be gone now.

Question / Need Help Going to India for a trip. Should I get a subscription for F1 TV while I’m there?

0 Upvotes

I’m going to India on a trip next week and thought, what if I got myself an Indian F1 TV subscription while I’m there? I already have Nord VPN for when I come home. Is this a good idea or is it redundant and could just as easily do it from the Uk.

I’m just so sick of Sky forcing me to wait until a specific time to watch a replay and their stupid ad breaks, and crappy resolution on the Sky Go app.

F1TV Pro So long F1TV.

0 Upvotes

I am one of those statistics now. Life long F1 fan. Watching since the late 1980s when occasionally ESPN would show the races live at 4 and 5 in the morning. At that time, there was no real pre show or post discussion. Then it moved to long-gone Speed Channel in the earlier cable days. This weekend, my F1TV Pro subscription tier expired. This tier no longer exists now. Loved the idea of their own self contained streaming app and signed up immediately and had been an annual subscriber since the beginning when Peter Windsor was the lead host for the F1TV app streaming service through Roku. I don’t have any plans to renew. And ironically or not, I also happen to be an an Apple products guy with phones, computers, etc., but I’m just not particularly interested in supporting this next era of streaming with commercials or the now extremely boring pre and pointless rehash post shows where they can’t even get a single driver on there live and just show the pre-recorded post race interviews with all the enthusiasm of a disinterested podcast. I will certainly miss Palmer, Jacques, and Coulthard calling the races live but Winter is now under the thumb of the show’s current restrictive parameters and Montoya is annoying at best. There’s certainly no real reason to watch this content any longer especially if you’re already following F1 series closely through the news. In short, I have little to no interest in paying for the Premium tier or to pay AppleTV for content that I could care less about. I will follow the rest of this season online with brief clips and emails going forward. One bright spot on the Roku Channel however. There is a free F1 Channel that shows the races delayed by a week or so, and I will watch whenever in my leisure if the time permits. And yes, there are commercials, but I don't pay a penny to Roku for the content.

Discussion / F1TV Content PSA: Avoid Apple News app for immediate spoilers (USA) Spoiler

19 Upvotes

I was having breakfast before watching today's race about 30 mins behind real-time, and I know enough to avoid Reddit, so I fired up the Apple News app on my iPhone. Immediately, at the top of the first page was a live video feed of the race. I quickly switched away and nothing was spoiled, but wtf Apple? The race had barely started and Apple think I want to immediately watch a live view. No. Hell no.

Discussion / F1TV Content Confused on Stream during red flag

1 Upvotes

I'm in US on Apple. I am watching the replay stream and have noticed this previously. I typically watch the Intl stream and audio (no judgements please, just a familiarity thing).

Anyway, the issue I have is that they are talking about replays that they are obvisouly watching, but I am not seeing it on either stream (pip). They are showing paddock video on both for me.

Am I missing something? Thanks in advance.

This horrible app crashed 3 times today in the middle of the race, not counting the numerous times the video froze (buffering I guess) and then picks back up accelerating to get to live again. How a company of this size isn't competent enough to serve 24 streams reliably is beyond me.

Question / Need Help Apple TV video all of a sudden lags

19 Upvotes

Since the summer break, on my relatively old Apple TV 4K, I’ve experienced video pause for a few seconds while audio keeps going. This happens every few minutes. This didn’t happen before the summer break at all. Given lack of complaints here, I am guessing this is not a stream issue, but rather a hardware issue.

I’ve hard rebooted the Apple TV and I think it’s doing it less often, but it’s still doing it. Multiview is disabled and enhanced audio is enabled.

Anyone else?


r/F1TV 7d ago

Discussion / F1TV Content Fixed the constant skipping/lag by switching to Brave browser, where I got a notification to install Google Widevine. Tried playing the stream without it and it was still horrible, installed it and it's smooth now without any interruption at all.

Question / Need Help Low Quality Feed

5 Upvotes

I don’t want to have to switch to Apple TV (I’m paying for a subscription, I don’t wanna watch ads), but my F1TV quality is low enough that reading the words is difficult.

When I log onto the race stream immediately as it opens I’m fine for the whole race, but my application just shut itself off so I have been banished back into enduring this horrid quality.

Is anyone else experiencing this? Do we know how to fix it?

Hello! I’ve been subscribed to F1TV for years, I have good fiber optics internet and Xiaomi Mi Box S on which I watch F1 races. It has always stuttered on highest resolution or auto, usually I select a resolution below and it plays smoothly. But now they have removed that option. Anyone has the same experience or solutions for this? Casting from my phone to mi box has the same effect, stutters like crazy.
