Question about IPTV/streaming

[simmy]

Hi, I’ve been using an android box for my IPTV for the past several months but I’ve always noticed it’s quite delayed, when I’m watching a football game for example, it will be around 1 min 30 seconds behind

Is there any alternative to what I use to remove that delay or be much closer to real time?

Are you really that daft honestly. 🙈

If you were watching a boxing event from the usa to the uk how quick do you think it can get from the usa to the uk via internet.

Even the quickest speeds in the world will have a delay on them

Only way to get real time is via satellite

Simple reason behind this delay. IPTV is never live the stream is cached to storage media and is then seleted for playing from it when you select a channel. Thats part of it. Then where the stream is originating from may not be local so there there is a delay there.

You find some severs delay is shorter than others because they are more local to you.

Even satellite has a delay.
Traditional antenna has the lowest delay.
Online streaming will always have the largest delay due to the fact that the live video has to be chopped up into small data packets and sent via the internet.
The only way not to have any delay is physically be there lol.
