Absolutely dire, poor camera work no crowd effects two commentators who love the sound of their own voice, replays in break periods but with no sound either crowd effects or chit chat. Need to take a good hard look at their mates down the road, because this is so poor it’s untrue feel a refund coming on, would prefer to put sharp sticks in my eyes that to watch this lot again. Think what you like about Sqeelers you can’t hold a candle to them when it comes to webcasts.

Do you win trophies for the best webcast? Do you gain extra league points? If it has a rep for being crap don't buy it.. I don't buy any webcast .. to me the lot of them are average !

I think that's the usual refrain whenever any of the rest of us question the VFM of these things. |

But it only costs ‘just £15” surely you don’t expect sound effects and decent commentators for that lowly price ! 🤣🤣🙄 |

The Sheffield one is definitely the benchmark. The company that did that also did the Elite Series, so I can understand why you might chance buying the Panthers one, only to find it's not good.
The highlights are abysmal too, crashing in halfway through sentences, not showing enough or sometimes any build-up to goals.
I understand if there are technical constraints that make the live webcast difficult, broadcasting is expensive and not easy, but the highlights edits just feel shoddy and having seen them on YouTube there's no chance I'd pay for a live stream. I did watch a few of the Elite Series games, so I'm not against paying for something if the quality is there.

As much as we don’t like them Sheffield is the benchmark across the league compared to everyone else. Webcast, entrance video, match night experience. Incomparable to everyone else because they are determined to do it right. Not quite sure how they train our camera guys and they are nowhere near as bad as Coventry or Manchester but basics like exposure and white balance are a requirement for the job. Best thing the other teams could do is go to Sheffield and see how it’s done properly. |

Sheffield have the advantage of putting their cameras on the inner concourse so the position is always good. Panthers put there's in the exec boxes .. it's literally impossible from up there.. they need to find a way of lowering them somewhere. That's why I refuse to watch any of their webcasts on top of the awful commentary..!

Why is this topic in the Rumours section. Having never bought a Panthers webcast I can't offer any comment as to the quality.

The EIHL/clubs thought that a comparable price was worthy, but obviously if these were sold at a shop the Panthers version would still be on the shelves and Sheffield signed 'sold out'.

Any chance of a mod moving this to the main forum, where it belongs?

Just watched the highlights from Wednesday. Much better presentation, build up to goals shown, nut just the puck entering the net !

Dunno, bet I can guess what it'll cost if they do though.

Still find it strange that after all the stick Panthers took over the years for not doing webcasts that they never actually announced they were starting to with a big splash and great fanfare.
It just sort of appeared the day before one game and stayed there.

It just sort of appeared the day before one game and stayed there. I think it could be because they don’t plan on making it a permanent thing. Neil Black has said in the past that we would do it when the arena was full and we did used to run the odd webcast when we were sold out. The club obviously understands the situation that we find ourselves in now though, people are unable to get to games for a variety of reasons. I think that we’ll run it for this season but if Covid is treat in the same way as the flu by the start of the 22/23 season, then I think we’ll revert back to how we used to do it. |

I imagine the big thing they will check, is do they get enough away fans watching to counteract any potential loss of home fans and cover costs. If they don't get enough away fans watching to pay for it when things return to normal, I reckon we could see the webcasts cancelled or more selectively shown. |

I would imagine that some of the Panthers fans who no longer come to the arena watch the webcasts too Which I think Panthers will accept in the current climate as there will be plenty who won't go right now because of Covid, but as things eventually become more normal, they'll want to maximise revenue. If that means more bums on seats and less webcasts, that's what they will do. |
