I’ve kept my mouth shut hoping it would get better but Nothing but problems on this end. Some nights it works some it don’t. I shouldn’t have to have Roku or this or that. My dirt on dirt for LMs work every time with no hitch regardless what I’m on. I sure hope usac cans them after this year or I won’t be back.

Not happy with Flo or USAC app

My only complaint with Flo is they seem to only follow the leader. They've gotten better for Eastern Storm so we'll see.

As far as the USAC app is concerned the audio seemed to never work for me.

FLO live or replay on ROKU for me has been great since the beginning. The production, camera work, and announcers have really improved over the past few months. I do not subscribe or watch LM or much wing online so I can't compare. FLO just got a $47 million infusion of venture capital so some people think this is the group to lead the way in streaming sports programming. I say hang with FLO like we did in 1979 with this cable outfit named Entertainment and Sports Programming Network that brought racing into our homes.

Yea but the EASP Net got too big for its britches and forgot who made them.
I'm curious to if a streaming ESPN essentially is the way to go, since you can have infinite channels; or if it's the really specialized we do racing, basketball, whatever one sport companies that will thrive. Flo model would seem to help ride out peaks and valleys in interest as they have more and varied content.. but will it be inferior since they don't understand every medium the same and can it all be serviced with care?!

I agree, It isn't getting better. Camera man is zooming in on single cars on the second lap. Showing the race for fifth or sixth. JEEZE. Catch the leader then move back to what you intend to show or nobody has a clue who's running where.
While no problem the past couple races, Way too many, Someone pulled a plug and miss racing.

Sorry. Just want things to get better.

I found when I purchased it for the Florida races that the commentary was like nil along with the poor camera shots . USAC must have got a real bargain and a big cut.

Tuned in 2:45am here in the UK. Perfect picture and sound. Best $30 I spent was getting the Roku stick.
We'll be watching the entire show tonight from a midnight onwards.
After a few opening week Gremlins it all seems a-ok for me now.
With the +6 hours here in the UK the playback option has been spot on.

UK USAC fan.
