DStv Stream - Latest Quality Issues
iOS

Poor
This app is a poor as they come on tv. I've just logged in my phone to watch the Man Utd match and it's clear, on tv it's blurry. I can't even see the players.

Poor Resolution
Hi I'd like to express an issue that I've seen to be only limited to DStv live streams across multiple devices .i.e my iPhone 15, LG NanoCell 55” and MacBook Pro 2019 13” Inch 16GB Ram My resolution has been consistently poor across multiple networks that I know for sure are solid networks for 4k streaming even. I've had to switch to using my mobile connection to stream whatever sports games I want to stream, even that actually seems to be a moot exercise after some time. All other streaming applications work fine and I'm just wondering what diagnostics I can run to help rule out whatever bottleneck is sucking the life out of my live stream resolution. I've opened a Live Chat and got told my issue will be escalated but got no communication on that. Currently my live streams are 240p at best and that is when the stream is not buffering I really would love to understand why the is the case. Please let me know if you need any more information on this. Thanks

Poor streaming
Streaming is pathetic all of a sudden. Keeps on freezing on tv or mobile

Expect to improve more, e.g. the option to record content instead of downloading. Improving up to this point is going to be great.

Poor streaming
I'm convinced that DSTV doesn't allocate enough bandwidth to support streaming. Hardly ever a seamless experience despite having 50mb internet speeds…

Limited streaming
I still find it bizarre that you limit streaming to 2 devices for a premium account holder.

Poor stream quality
Stream quality has been horrendous for over a week now. To make matters worse, the stream hangs every few minutes. Judging by how long it's been like this, we can be assured it's not going to be fixed any time soon. Do not waste your money on a DStv subscription.
