Matthew Le Tissier Posted 29 April, 2012 Posted 29 April, 2012 Just subscribed , but tried to play on my iPad and doesnt work. Waste of money me thinks?
Stu Man Do Posted 29 April, 2012 Posted 29 April, 2012 Download Iswifter for a couple of quid and you can run Saints Player fine then.
saintscottofthenortham Posted 29 April, 2012 Posted 29 April, 2012 Saints Player requires Flash Player.
ChudSaint Posted 29 April, 2012 Posted 29 April, 2012 Needs flash player which iPad doesn't have... Find an app called Iswifter and use that as your Internet Browser, bit fiddly and not as reliable as Safari but allows flash and hey presto Saints Player works with it.. That's my workaround/fix anyway...
Matthew Le Tissier Posted 29 April, 2012 Author Posted 29 April, 2012 Cheers guys!! It works which is ok Just looks like it has been filmed on a 20 year old mobile phone!! Very poor photo. Better than nothing I guess. Waste of £35 Only wanted to see jaidi dancing. Mugged
saintoaks Posted 29 April, 2012 Posted 29 April, 2012 Just subscribed , but tried to play on my iPad and doesnt work. Waste of money me thinks? Not at all mate, Player cant view flash video, need to buy iswifter app and all will be fine !!
Matthew Le Tissier Posted 30 April, 2012 Author Posted 30 April, 2012 Hi again Managed to play it now which is cool However the video quality is so poor? Does anyone else have this poor picture Specialy if I adjust to fit complete screen it's pretty much unwatchable was hoping to mirror through apple tv onto my tv but with a picture like that it's ****e!? Any advise? Does yours have a ****eee picture to If that's as good as it gets can you cancel or is it just cancel the direct debit!? Cheers any help appriciated
St Chalet Posted 30 April, 2012 Posted 30 April, 2012 Picture quality is normally much better using IE on an PC. Iswifter not great, but good enough as a workaround for the commentary.
saintscottofthenortham Posted 30 April, 2012 Posted 30 April, 2012 There are 3 quality selections on Saints Player.
Mattio Posted 30 April, 2012 Posted 30 April, 2012 Is there any point in having saints player over the summer?
trousers Posted 30 April, 2012 Posted 30 April, 2012 Radical thought alert..... how about Saints Player itself was upgraded to offer a variety of video formats? This is Trousers; 21st Century; Computerland
Matthew Le Tissier Posted 30 April, 2012 Author Posted 30 April, 2012 I only registered yesterday and signed up for the year at £35 direct debit Then I realised it was ****e on the iPad They won't cancel the registration I thought there would be a 7 day cooling off period but they said **** off its to late basically lol
Hopkins Posted 30 April, 2012 Posted 30 April, 2012 Very much doubt we'll be using Saints player next season either. Unlucky.
Matthew Le Tissier Posted 30 April, 2012 Author Posted 30 April, 2012 Yea I think your right! My fault for not reading the small print Oh well Not the end of the world
Doctoroncall Posted 1 May, 2012 Posted 1 May, 2012 I think your issue actually lies with Apple... Most are moving away from the cumbersome flash format. Hence Trouser's post. About time others caught up.

Saintandy666 Posted 1 May, 2012 Posted 1 May, 2012 Don't know whether to cancel my saints player subscription now we are in the Premier League...
Thedelldays Posted 1 May, 2012 Posted 1 May, 2012 Don't know whether to cancel my saints player subscription now we are in the Premier League... was thinking that. but I do like to look back at the all angles covered stuff with solent commentary.....
Colinjb Posted 1 May, 2012 Posted 1 May, 2012 On my iPhone and using an Internet explorer app who's name escapes me the quality is shocking. On my Blackberry Playbook and PC it works perfectly. Just have to be careful about the device you try to access it from.
mancsaint Posted 1 May, 2012 Posted 1 May, 2012 I had a run-in with the webmaster who claimed the quality, before the start of last season, had been raised to "near" HD. I reckon it's much closer to SD than HD and I try viewing it on a high end laptop. Mancsaint
Batman Posted 5 October, 2015 Posted 5 October, 2015 I get this monthly using my bank card to pay. anyone know how to stop the subscription..???
Saint_John Posted 5 October, 2015 Posted 5 October, 2015 I only registered yesterday and signed up for the year at £35 direct debit Then I realised it was ****e on the iPad They won't cancel the registration I thought there would be a 7 day cooling off period but they said **** off its to late basically lol Interesting !!!! I was on a annual subscription which came to an end last week (25th Sept). When I logon on to see the Swansea highlights it said my subscription had not been renewed. I checked my Bank Account and there was a DD setup but NO money had been taken. I sent an email to player.services@Football-League.co.uk and received the following reply Unfortunately Southampton will not allow us to sell 12 month subscriptions anymore. I then sent an email to Customer Services at Saints and received the following reply (the bold bits are mine) We are sorry to see that you did not receive a full explanation from FLI regarding the changes. Saints Player is provided and administrated by FLI Interactive, and not by us at Southampton Football Club. I believe their contract is due to end in under a year, hence why they are no longer offering a 12 month subscription. We don’t know how they have or intend to communicate changes to fans, and we do not have access to their database. Our apologies for any disappointment and inconvenience. We would urge you to keep an eye on our website for updates on what we can offer moving forward. My guess is that Saints are going to bring video highlights "In House" at the end of the season ?? but I might be wrong.
Hamilton Saint Posted 5 October, 2015 Posted 5 October, 2015 What I don't understand is why Saints Player starts so late for many away games. For Saturday's game against Chelsea, for example, it didn't begin until 5 minutes before kick-off. Why?

I logged on 30 mins before KO as usual, but got no commentary. I then found a Sky Sports stream and watched that instead.

Saints have continually pushed things out on 'free-view' media such as YouTube, because, simply put, they don't like the club website or the 'player' set-up. That's all handled by a group called 'Perform', but they've been made largely redundant because Saints just whack their content out across their social media channels. I believe there are (and have been for a while) plans for a bespoke official website which will be made as Saints want it. It was always a case of waiting to end the current contract.

There must be a hefty cancellation clause in the existing contract otherwise, surely, the club would have just paid up the contract in order to accelerate the process?

I can't say for sure but from what I heard it was a pretty difficult contract to get out of. I don't know if that means financially, or otherwise.
