Satan Claws brought me a google chromecast for Festivus and I wanted to try it out by live streaming tonight's game - the video was supposed to start at 645pm eastern. The audio feed is working. No video. Does it usually work?

Now it's on but running in sort of a crappy stop-action way. Not really watchable like this. Any tips?

Depending on what device I use, I get this too. Seamless on my work laptop. Stop and go on my personal, newer laptop.

I had issues with buffering but rebooted and it worked fine afterwards.

Ive had stop and go action for the last two seasons. I thought it was my computer or wifi. I plugged directly to the modem recently for the first couple home games, and that seemed to help. I was recently upgraded to Time Warner Extreme Internet (yes, i complained that much) and had the least amount of issues ever. Makes me wonder where the real issue is and why this is the only video stream I have ever had issues with.

Have to be sure you are not clicking on the NIU game. Too bad I couldn't watch that second half. Maybe try the replay later from on-demand if it's offered.

I've had problems using a Microsoft Surface, but my phone, as well as our laptop are perfect.
