Probably been discussed before, but can I watch the streams online with my iPhone? I know Safari doesn't support flash, so that Is a problem. Does Skyfire work?

If you click on the full version of ohiobobcats.com on the iPhone and click on the same link you use on the desktop, Stretch should detect that you're on a mobile device and deliver MP4 video to you that the iPhone can handle natively.  You can try it now by trying to watch one of the replays in the on demand section of the page.

I don't know what I am doing wrong. I get a "you need to download Flash to view this content." That, of course, goes to Adobe where they tell you Flash is not supported by Apple.

Might just be looking in the wrong spots.

It works great on an IPad, so I just assumed it worked on IPhone.

Just checked my iPod Touch and everything seems in order.  Ohiobobcats.com -> Standard Site -> Bypass Bowl Splash Screen -> Audio/Video tab -> Live Events.

This should open a popup (new tab) that goes to a mobile version of the Stretch portal, where you should be able to select events and watch or listen links.  Try the On-Demand link for Marietta (or any home game) to try it out.

I trust you haven't done anything to modify the user-agent string Safari mobile is sending out?

Cool, got it now. Somehow I was on that page before, but dismissed it since I only saw the upcoming schedule at first glance. Nice, it's not bookmarked.
