Highest Quality for Live Sports? (Currently on Ace-TV)

by Chris1712

Hi everyone, I know this question gets asked a lot but no one seems to post a definitive answer.

What is the highest bitrate provider for Sports, specifically EPL? Bonus if they still work without VPN (Ace-TV had problems last time, not sure if they've had a workaround?). I've heard anecdotally that Vader Streams is very good and has got around the recent EPL/ISP shenanigans but can't find any info on bitrate/res/framerate?

I'd really like objective info not subjective if possible.

Ace-TV for reference on their 'FHD' channels is 1080p25, between 3000-5000kbps, is there anything better?

SmoothStreams is the way to go.

Ace announced on Twitter this morning about the epl. They claim to have got around it.

Am using Ace with VPN and everything is working fine.

Thing is, streams change, some have has 1080p 60fps on Sly Sports in past, then 2 weeks later they change or what not.

Most will be similar, Vaders is good, but best bet is take some trials, test all features on whatever providers you try and see what you prefer.

I mean cant be to picky in reality, stability and uptime is more key imo.

as for EPL, if watching on USA channels, or CAN, they normally at 720p at 50 or 60 fps and picture is good.

On a side-note...is there anyway of paying for Ace via PayPal and not credit/debit card and their substitute for Bitcoin?

720p and the bitrate ranges from 4 to 6 mb.

Vader has really nice 60fps US Sports channels, but his UK HD Sports channels aren't as good as Ace/Flawless' FHD ones. It's pretty annoying. Watching Chiefs @ Patriots was a better experience watching on Flawless SSMainEvent than on Vader NBC.
