I'll have to refresh, the video wasn't loading. Thanks.

App works, but the website has problems. To me just asks to login again and for others there's been a blank video player.

Same thing every time. Amateurs.

Website working for me (on laptop) streaming the 1st practice session. But it won't load on my iPad app. Bummer. I purchased the pack on the website. Did the same last year and had no problems with getting the stream on either the website or the app.

The fiawec website live video is now working for me in both Firefox and Chrome. I had to update Chrome to the latest update for it to want to work, so make sure your browsers are on the latest version.

For those syncing RLM and a video source, RLM is around 30 seconds behind Eurosport, but crucially has added the circuit sounds to the RLM feed. Race control and team radio are also on RLM. It means you can mute the video source and still have circuit sounds through the RLM feed. I hope they keep that all week as it's perfect.

And there's this video feed with the timer:

I'll swap to that for qualifying. Thank you very much!

Only downside is they are accidentally talking over team radio as they don't have a visual of when it's going to appear. Not a big deal though.

Anybody by chance find a VLC link?

for some reason the webstreaming works on firefox but not on chrome, that just gives me a blank player

Mine was doing same thing. Updated to newer version of Chrome and it started working FYI.

Found a stream on youtube. Won't give the link as I think it's frowned upon now.

I watched the stream via the app while at work, listened to Radio Le Mans on the way home and checked out Eurosport on telly. All good.

I'm weird and I like to turn the ambient sounds up on Eurosport player and RLM slightly down to replicate what it's like trackside, ie, not being able to hear what's going on for quite a bit of the time...

[Adam43]

In recent years I'd taken to giving myself a break from RLM during parts of the race. I wonder if I'll do that when not there?

[HR186S]

Does anyone have the webstream working on fiawec.com?

Subscribed, for the first time to not watch ads on eurosport but the stream won't load in any browser.
Tried Chrome, Firefox, Opera

[seanyb505]

Official stream working on Android here. Trying to access timing via laptop is a no go.

I had a lot of trouble too. Finally working on my laptop with Safari.

They're working on it.

These frequent issues makes you wonder if they'd _save_ some money by putting the feed on Youtube for free. That likely outsourced customer support and other infrastructrure must have its cost. I think I no longer believe that paid service is mandatory because clearly they're not putting the money back into developing it. It is just a cheapskate money grab.

This year I've had nothing but problems with the season pack. Now both the app and website has lost track of my subscription (ongoing support ticket). And even if that was fixed then I'd might run to the same blank video player issue that many seem to have.

No. I'll have to take breaks for the fact I have young(er) kids and it's the weekend. Otherwise. Full on and in the ears!

[Adam43]

I meant while at the race, sorry wasn't clear. Still watching the rafe, just not always listening to RLM.

This year I'm not at Le Mans the race will be on all the time. I'm just wondering about who to listen to.

[fieldodreams79]

I understood but I guess I didn't make it clear. I've listened to RLM exclusively, with the occasional break for some American commentary. Can't speak for the other "isles" commentary

I never got the video to work on my browser, but it worked on my phone through the app. Hope they get it sorted by race day.
