As SD said, its not through the club website, its a dedicated site for handling registrations, logging and payment (although most of the payment is done on Paypals site). You will view the stream on the same site, too, but the actual stream will come from a separate site which is a specialist video streaming platform 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fae_the_'briggs Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 (edited) MOTD Wannabe or Mr X, Will our streaming coversge be from just one camera position or can it be switched to include the " behind goal cameras" we also use. I suppose the footage from those is probably edited in later. Edited October 8, 2020 by Fae_the_'briggs 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TOPFITTER Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 Statement from Morton, STATEMENT FROM THE CHAIRMAN 1 min ago Streaming – Greenock Morton v Queen of the South Everyone at the club was devastated at the failure of our match streaming service on Tuesday night which was a major let down for our loyal fans and a huge blow both reputational and financial to the club. On behalf of the board, I would like to take the opportunity to apologise unreservedly to all affected fans. None of the board have any expertise in the technologies required to stream matches and have employed professionals to advise and set this up for us. Whilst we are in their hands, we equally recognise that the buck stops here! We convened an emergency meeting of our board yesterday attended by the developers of our system and representation from MCT. I should like to share with you the actions that are to be taken consequent upon that meeting. Firstly, we are going to refund in full everyone who paid to stream the match. This a major administrative task for our finance people but we will get this done as soon as humanly possible, starting Thursday, 8th October. Secondly, the developers believe they have identified the issues that caused the problem and steps needed to correct them. In simple terms, there are two elements to streaming a match – the ticketing/paywall system and the actual match stream. The actual stream is a separate system operated by Amazon but access to that depends on the streaming ticketing system on our own website and it was that which failed. That there was a potential problem with this was recognised in advance of Tuesday but steps taken to mitigate the increased volumes through it failed. To cure the problem, we are splitting the streaming ticketing system into a separate website, optimised to handle large volumes. In addition, instead of after purchase logging on to view the match via our website, we intend to instead issue purchasers with an email containing a link directly to the stream, thereby bypassing our website altogether. This will ensure that anyone purchasing a stream will be able to view it irrespective of whether our website is up or down. Finally, we need your help! We expect to be able to run another test of the revised system details of which will be circulated as widely as possible with a view to encouraging as many fans as possible to ‘buy’ a free stream via the new ticketing site and watch the team training, probably this weekend. Regrettably, as this is a new ticketing website, you will require to re-register which involves supplying your email address and choosing a password. This is unavoidable and I hope you will bear with us in this regard. We also expect to issue season ticket holders shortly with their personal access code for league matches. I fully accept that this episode was unacceptable for our fans – and very expensive for the club – and once again apologise to all and hope that you will stick with us!

Fae_the_'briggs Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 No specific recognition there of the Queen of the South fans or others who also stumped up the cash. It reads as if it's only the Morton fans who were affected. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad they have admitted more culpability and sorted refunds. Still no acknowledgement of the second issue, the camera work, and agree that it is poor show not to referent the QOS fans who got an even worse deal from it all what with missing the goals and all. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, it wouldn't have been difficult to issue an earlier, better thought out apology than they originally did. SD and those with a better idea of what's involved are saying the actual cameraman was not at fault, it was something to do with the magic behind the scenes that transmits it. Actually filming from the main stand was the wrong decision anyway but there may be reasons for that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tbf that's plenty for me. We aren't any more important than the Morton supporters who forked out as well and even though we missed our own teams goals, they also missed two goals. The statement is fine with me and providing I get my refund then I'll be drawing a line in the sand and purchasing a ticket for the next Morton - QoS if the problems are fixed. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JK_Queens Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 Anybody know what’s to happen with the refunds in terms of giving Queens their share of the income? I’d be inclined to let Morton keep my tenner if I knew half was going to queens - doesn’t seem fair we dont get half of the income that’d have been due just because Morton made an arse of their steaming service. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one suggested we were more important than the Morton fans but the statement was very slanted to cover Morton fans especially when it concludes by saying "we hope you stick with us." Courtesy at least should have seen him mention opposition fans. I'll be buying a ticket for the next game at Morton irrespective of being refunded or not. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's the full amount refunded take it and donate all or part of it to Queens, Morton get nothing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
