An option I want is 'pure sound' with no commentary, just the car noise or OB co-drivers notes. Surely that wouldn't cost anything or be difficult to do ?
(You get this on Sky F1 when you watch a driver OB).

I wish I could tell You that somebody cares about this, but....
You can watch all onboards with pure sounds as much as You like, until Your head falls off.

Pretty good Preview Magazine this time around. It was actually enjoyable to spend a few minutes recapping the previous rally.
One issue, however: the deaf guy is back in charge of the sound mix again. The commentator's audio track is way quieter than the rest of the video.
Great to see Kiri back; she’s brilliant.
Anyone having trouble to get the livestream to work? It’s useless on an iPhone, only ever worked a couple of times with chromecast, and now it won’t even stream on my PC. I regularly chromecast ice hockey in HD from the NHL with no problems, but WRC+ very rarely works
I tell you something that bugs me is when the driver comes to the end of the stage for interviews, the cameraman always going straight to focus on their name on the side window. I mean, as if we dont know who it is already !!
Why dont they focus on the car, looking for any damage, or the condition of the tyres...
The perfect onboard camera position in Paddon's car:

Logistically, you carry a camera around stage end, stand still and film. It's all about timing and being LIVE. But a good thought - image the camera man going around the car every time and finding noting, tripping on a cable or a dumwit walking into the camera man... waste of time
The problem with onboard cameras is that there is a very thin line between perfect and useless.
Breen this weekend was shaking on full throttle so much it was like watching under water.
Lappi "slightly" from side, meant that it always looked he was massively sideways on every left corner.
If you want to know why they show the rear side window with the names, then it's the smoothest way to move from the front of the car past the driver's door, which would be opened behind the cameraman, while he is showing the names.
By going around the car from left to right you'd most likely end up having quite many of the photographers, reporters and whoever else in the shot once they get to the driver's side.
Quote from commentator Desborough during Finland power stage... "Just listen to that engine, sounds fantastic !"... then proceeds to continue to talk all over it... :(
This Pierre Budar interview is TV magic.
Missed it, what was said?
Image quality during the live power stage was really awful.

Sat transmission in trees might not be as strong as out in the open... You've got to comprimise with either a digital signal, an analogue (576i/p or less) or none what so ever.
Get a life dude

At times like this, I love Julian Porter.
What a bunch of muppets.
When can we expect them to show all splits they have on the website on AllLive?
With countdown for both the car we see, and others on other splits, cant be that hard!
And good drivers as expert commentators, that knows what is going on woild be nice.
And an alternative stram showing live timing, and stats, or mayne split screen as an option.
Why not use info that is awailable to make it exiting?
Right now I would be happy if the stream even worked. Was anyone in the world actually able to see the coverage of first stage?
Bought a months subscription for this rally as I'm off work and able to watch it all weekend and find this...., stream not working. What is wrong with these people?! You'd think they'd have solved issues like this by now. It's the last time I'll pay for AllLive until I hear for sure that they've got it working properly and consistently
I am having no problems - well, since the stage started.
For Turkey, with everything happening, I feel like they missed out with the breaks, they could also have shown more cars while doing interviews i a smaller window on-screen.
Most people are interested in the driving, then the actual servicing of the cars. Interviews are nice to hear, but doesn't need to take the whole screen.
Just re-watched coverage from SS11 where all kinds of things were happening and sadly alllive wasn't really able to follow, sticking to the rigid programme they set up.
50% of the stage coverage is watching inside of Breen's cockpit with smoke (while he was in 6th place), well it's good cause that was deviation from the "preplanned" programme. But then first Mikkelsen (from first split) and then Ogier (half way trough) get into trouble and they just keep the same schedule of following every car trough last few kms instead of switching to the rally leader or the 5time world champion.
Bit more flexibility would be nice.
It's a technical limitation that they cannot show absolutely everything they want. They have the transmitter receiver aeroplane flying above the cars, but on a 34 km stage in the mountains they have to choose the portion of the stage they're showing. If they had known that Ogier is going to crash at a certain corner, I bet they would have chosen that portion of the stage to show live. But they were expecting everything to go well and show the seaside corners at the end of the stage.
My issue in Turkey was too much of the onboards and nowhere near enough stage-side camera's or heli shots.
Watching so much of the driver's or the road ahead was quite boring. The cars look great so let's see them in action !
My personal problem is the cancelation of rally radio.
I know they were not perfect but for those like me who work in office with the computer it was very comfortable to work with the radio on the earphones and stay up to date on what was happening.
The same on saturday-sunday, if you were at home doing other stuff you could swith on the radio and follow everything.
I don't want to buy all live, the product is not good for me and I don't have the time to watch all the stages.
Any other on the same situation?
There i still radio link on website. You don't have to buy all live.

It's no longer 'radio' as such, just an audio feed of the All Live video stream.
But they really need more stage cameras and/or drones to give a better show on the live stream to make it watchable for hours.
