Upgrade a few HD/FHD Sports channels from 25fps to 50fps

[ThaFella]

Hey guys,

Sport is unwatchable in 25 fps, everyone knows that. Could we get a few major Sports channels that are HD or FHD in 50 fps instead of 25?

I watch a lot of dutch tv, most of the makor channels are 50fps anyway, but some arent.

Like:
Netherlands:
- ESPN 2 FHD NL, Espn switched most major matches to ESPN 2, because most people own ESPN 1 in a free package.

ESPN 4 is somehow in FHD 50fps but these arent...

- Ziggo Sport Voetbal FHD, only has the SD version as alternative and cmon man a football channel in 25fps...

- RTL Z, hast the most interesting Documentairies, but is only available in SD.

Also in the UK channel list, there are a few PL or Football Channels in 25fps or alternatively SD/50FPS cmon man.

Also maybe EPG for all ESPN NL channels, there is no EPG for them at all

The same problem exists on sky sport 1 FHD DE sky sport 1 HD DE sky Bundesliga 1 FHD de Sky Bundesliga 1 HD DE sky Bundesliga 2 FHD and on all SuperSport Albania FHD / HD channels which are all in 25 FPS and not 50 FPS 25 fps are too little for sport

Ye, I think the 25fps sport streams are wasted bandwith. Nobody watches them as they are unwatchable for sports. If somebody who can fix this would take the time and sift out all duplicates with 25fps sportstreams and upgrade the 50fps to HD/FhD or the HD/FHD to 50fps, it could save a lot of bandwith and extremely upgrade the quality of the service. Im sure some people need the HD or lower because of their own limited bandwith limits, but you can take the m3u link that automatically adapts to your speed anyway right?

yes sky Bundesliga 1 FHD DE and sky Bundesliga 2 FHD DE sky Sport 1 FHD DE are still in 25 FPS although there are sources in 50fps

and did someone fix it?

Doesn't look like it, I haven't seen any sports channels with more than 25fps

Sky Sport 1 fHD DE and Sky Bundesliga 1 FHD DE are still 25 FPS. Sometimes the source changes from 50 FPS to 25 FPS, but from Sky Bundesliga 2 FHD to Sky Bundesliga 9 FHD is 99% in 25 FPS

I take that back, sky sports f1 fhd is indeed at 50fps, I take it some of the others are as well, I wasn't aware that was the difference between hd and fhd

 

[Brauwer]

BT Sport 1,2,3 are FHD at 50 FPS afaik

I agree with this. SKY SPORTS UK channels need to be upgraded to 60 fps or even 4K at 50fps if possible. Some of us only watch the sports and a high frame rate is essential.
