Typical! After struggling for well over an hour
managed to access iFollow just as we conceded the penalty. Feel like a jinx now!

Managed to view match after downloading google chrome and using that browser. Didn’t work with Safari. Good picture. Disappointing result

Top Tip seems to be have multiple browsers downloaded as back up incase one doesn't work.

Other than actually being present at Holker st i found it a good alternative. Worked great for me, i enjoyed having the commentary (thanks to AJ and Goody)

I downloaded the app and then went into the club website. Did it yesterday so maybe the system doesn't like so many trying to get on at once towards or after kick off. A great picture and good commentary. Impressed.

WORKED! Don't use Internet Explorer...
That is good advice at any time.

I used Firefox and had no problems. Really pleased to be able to watch this and the coverage was excellent. Good commentary from Adam and Goody, I guess it was the usual radio commentary but I see no need to adapt it for TV coverage. Well done to all concerned.

Worked fine for me, bit if ghosting and paused a couple of times. Overall, worth the tenner. Good commentary as always!

Thank you
Yes we send our feed to the studio as normal who then direct it to the iFollow feed so all you are seeing is our usual radio coverage

Just one small thing though - they are no longer called Stevenage Borough!

The postion appears to be as follows.

Smart tv browsers (certainly the LG browser) does not support the ifollow live video feed (but the audio is fine and pre-recorded video is fine)
Use the ifollow app to view on a phone/tablet.
Use Chrome or other compatible browser to watch on a PC or Laptop
For some reason it is not possible to cast live video from the ifollow app to a smart tv. Next time I'll log in to ifollow on my phone using Chrome on my phone and see if I can cast that
