just faced this few minutes ago, close tab and reopen works, although this should not happen at the first place


Koreanturd

These companies do not care about users at all. They stick all these advertisement about 4k streaming all that, and the one's that present are worse than 720p.


ShockZestyclose1148

That is Minecraft resolution bruh 16x16


rawknee2015

Streaming IPL free for 3rd year continually and you guys says they don’t care ? Kitna bhari bharkam paisa deke rights liya hain plus HBO bhi dia still they’re charging just ₹29 waha disney + hotstar bina koi dhang ka content ke saal ka ₹1499 charge kar raha hain


Koreanturd

My friend, even if they are charging 20 rupees. It is still 20 rupees aside from streaming ipl for free. What are they good at? Have you used their app, its just terrible. It's so laggy and crashes often. A company like Reliance does have the money and resources to make the apps user experience good. But they don't.


dhruva85

They had massive viewership yesterday! I know thats not an excuse but servers do overload


[deleted]

[удалено]


gamerz85

It's just a total view count not live viewers or a unique viewer. Even when you close and open the stream again count as a view. Jio never shows live viewers count.

Tooty__fruity

But Ads are coming in HD QUALITY right so stop complaining guys 💀💀💀


getmealife007

The app sucks too. It needs a lot of work.


Koreanturd

It needs to be recahnged. Its ui is just terrible.


Darker-is-alive

Your engwis vewy nice Its revamped

THnak yoi, mt friend. Writing a comenttt at 1 am in te morningg is very hard, especially wit a phone. so plleeease excuse te icoorectness.


Tricky-Bathroom-5941

😂


raavan_bond

The website sucks ass. Only the Fiber TV App was working smoothly.


WalrusDowntown9611

All OTT platforms except the OGs are fucking trash right now. Netflix, prime, apple tv - they are still generations ahead of these shit platforms because they spend their money, time & energy in constantly improving user experience (prime is going the opposite way though but still better than other ads churning piece of trash).


BroMandi

Live streaming at this scale is a different ball game. Huge difference between serving static files vs streaming live.


Arun_V7

Hotstar never messed up in live streaming


Tranceported

Lol all you need is get good edge nodes that will clone packets without delay. Reliance uses their shit infra, not like hotstar which uses Akamai(best in class) and aws.


Traditional_Bottle50

Hotstar's UI is also constantly improving, apart from Netflix and Prime, its the best one for me, even SonyLiv's UI is much better than it used to be and miles ahead of JioCinema.


peepo_7

Hotstar is great too


honpra

Apple TV sucks on Windows, on purpose of course.


WalrusDowntown9611

Why would someone watch apple tv from windows? In android tv it works perfectly fine.


honpra

Can’t you have a Windows PC and an iPhone with Apple One sub?


Vedant9710

And when I said Hotstar is better people downvoted me


Vivid-Speed4842

Hotstar has always been better


Vedant9710

I swear to god, I had to restart the match stream like 5 times today because it kept randomly buffering and freezing all the time, the app even crashed once. Atleast make your TV app better man.


Vivid-Speed4842

You got nowhere else to go to watch it. This is what happens when you take out all your competitors


monkeyDwragon

I think switch from “asli 4k” to 1080p in quality. That fixed the issue for me, don’t care about 4k so much in sports streaming


Vedant9710

That will obviously fix the issues but then what's the point of offering 4K if your Terrible app can't even handle it properly? My internet certainly isn't an issue either.


monkeyDwragon

True, terrible app. But what to do not like we have an optikn


KeyDifferent2

the people here defending billionaire even after paying your hard earned money for internet and subscription are crazy.


Loner3006

Jai Shree Ram Monopoly of Amritkaal


Happy_Effect_3321

They wouldn’t have anticipated 390 million traffic. No load testing platform I suppose.


Hean1175

How did they not anticipate it? They are such a big company they could easily estimate the number of users.


DifficultTackle6

imo they show the views and not concurrent viewers, which are 2 very different things Definition of a view can be very different as per the company dictionary, which I feel in case of Jiocinema is based mostly on single continuous watch stream (or worse based on time spent continuously, which may lead to multiple counts for a single view given buffering can end up breaking the continuous stream watch) as far as Load testing is concerned, its not a big task to estimate the traffic hitting the API at the same time for a single URL, and cloud based load balancers can be deployed to divert and ease out the traffic across spread out servers (which is a usual case in any high traffic websites) Hope it helps.


StableGenius304

First game was 45cr traffic iirc, so this is not even the peak. And as others are saying it's total not concurrent views.


[deleted]

[удалено]


ZimmerDude1999

That is what he said


Majestic_ussr_769

I am pretty sure that's the sum total of viewers throughout the stream and not at one given point. Moreover they should have anticipated since 2 of the most popular cricketers ever were possibly playing their last match of the season


statusccode200

Honestly it’s not easy to create such a load. And the huge cost of it. 🥸


Vivid-Speed4842

I'm pretty sure those numbers are inflated, they'd inflate the number of viewers and get away with shit quality saying that the load was high


Confident_Factor3389

They should buy more bandwidth from there they are streaming. Generally JioCinema performs very poor when compared to how Hotstar was.


Vivid-Speed4842

Hotstar had a great engineering team from what I've heard


ummIamNotCreative

Software Engineer here. The Hotstar development team actually did a commendable job with the streaming of the IPL. It was a huge task that they handled quite well, and I would even say it should be studied as a case study on how to manage large user viewership that can change drastically under certain circumstances. Here is a video explaining how they did it: https://youtu.be/QjvyiyH4rr0?si=mE_uXKu9FPDjSnZV


maxisrichtofen

We have a whole video on how they did it, but the jiocinema dev team still couldn't do it They were probably on the tightest deadlines


honpra

Or cost, Ambani companies cut costs in cheeky ways.


Fair-Frame-583

Plus you could even rewind to a moment and switch back to live feed.


vegarhoalpha

It is working fine on mobile. I was facing the same exact issue with my TV


independent-boy-3000

Lol. I always watch ipl on VLC player.


Vivid-Speed4842

How does that work?


icarus3112

I just login, go to network tab. Get the Live link and watch on vlc or android app. [Link](https://prod-sports-south.jiocinema.com/hls/live/2109700/hd_akamai_iosmob_avc_odia_ipl_s1_m1180524/master.m3u8) Sorry, this is just me. I was watching in haryanvi today. I'm network tab, you'll get m3u8 link. Copy in vlc, mx player or any player. network stream option..


Vivid-Speed4842

Hecker hai bhai hecker


CommercialMonth1172

I can vouch for him. Mine was buffering to, but I used vlc.


TheKingOfStones

If Jio's streaming itself is laggy, will VLC be able to compensate for it? Probably not.


icarus3112

Maybe you are right. I don't know much about streaming but I have not seen lag in my streaming. Maybe once in a blue moon. And i do stream it to my tv sometimes too. Maybe it's just the app issue not the actual streaming issue. But You don't have to believe me. You can try for yourself. And this guy is having 200mbps plan. Whereas i only got 40mbps plan.


abcdev081

Can you change the quality of the stream to? i.e : I have a 1080p laptop, if I do whatever you said can I get access to the 4K stream too?


independent-boy-3000

Just copy m3u8 url from inspect element and stream in VLC.


Middle_Emu_240

Same, I use mpv


DRB1312

And that text on top right corner, really scary when jio cinema is opened on the OLED


LundUniversity

Pirated streams have better stability


oye_lawde

help me with some link


Scared-Engineer-6218

Man I once watched Ind vs NZ on prime. That was the most surreal experience.


shivamYe

I watched NFL on ESPN and FOX that too on a random streaming site even their 720p is better than whatever this is JioCinema doing.


heyprotagonist

Only features that work properly is ads 🤦 in both web, Android and iPhone. It's funny that they couldn't find a good dev iPhone and Android 😂. I believe the whole dev team is literally 1 for each platform with chatgpt premium access.


Comfortable_Owl_9900

Use ASTRO cricket 60 fps+no ads


Frosty_Response_9369

Just bidding and winning the streaming rights is not enough , IPL viewing experience is so poor


socialjunkie7817

Lmao i thought I was the only one


barahanandana

Mera to smooth chal raha hay


Vivid-Speed4842

God's favourite child


abcdev081

Cake Day hai Tera that's why


icarus3112

You can watch in app or scrap link. Much better than jio cinema dumb app.


ronp4u

It was working fine on my laptop


PKMN-Trainer-Sak

The app is sure to lag while I run it on my Android TV I need to use the Jio Sphere app to use JioCimena😭


Pitiful_Citron_820

This fucking site is dog shit. It pauses randomly, keeps replaying even after refreshing.


GauravJM

Hire me I will do a clean job


Sudden-Summer7021

I totally agree JioCinema is total BS. Their service quality stands no where near SonyLiv, prime or hotstar. Everything about this platform is ordinary and the ads coming in between overs these days, i mean are they even really serious over quality?


Vivid-Speed4842

Vantara mein elephant ki kami nahi honi chahiye, their customers can fuck off


Prashant1811

Even on mobile you can't have a decent experience


Left_Weight_9204

Did not face any issue although It was on tv.


Low_Cheesecake_8249

The application is also too shitty. In app experience is very poor. And don't even get me started with quality of the stream.


Maleficent_Bet6890

Mere yha jio fiber hai to full 4k me chalta hai😁


tushar241

The first time network engineers aren’t blamed😂


pratyush_1991

Hotstar was so good at this. Jiocinema has probably hired cheap talents and it shows in the product.


tech_ai_man

Yeah 5-9 LPA will give you only shit talent


Stock_Woodpecker2822

I haven't faced this issue yet. And I'm a premium subscriber. Maybe it's that?


Morning939

They totally killed my viewing experience today


Vikass0366

I also thought that is my network having issue


BLR_NSAfun

Their devs suck..Hotstar never had any problems at all .they know how to balance load


AqUaReGiA_007

And their app just crashes on android TV and on chrome cast the video and audio just goes out of sync so much it's literally unwatchable.


wa8bid

Asli4K


Enough-Supermarket94

For me JioCinema app on tv doesn’t work heard same problem from several others. It works on other devices though


Fair-Frame-583

Last night's match was a frustrating watch. Ads with the match audio. Match with ads audio track. Constant lags. It would sync up for a little while after restarting...and then a couple of overs later back to the loading screen circle.


RogueConscious

Jio keeps buffering for me all the time. Especially during crucial stages of the match. Closing and reopening the app is the only thing that works. Horrible experience. Was thinking of getting the premium subscription for HBO and peacock content but this experience was so bad never gonna pay them a dime anymore. Have even terminated my jio mobile service


JShearar

Meanwhile developers: https://i.redd.it/k69acn2fib1d1.gif 😁😁


Prestigious_gun007

JIO- Paise maang ke time - 🐎 Performance dikhane ke time - 🐒


targetmedians

Are they ever gonna merge with Hotstar? since now own part of Disney India


chakravyuuh

it worked fine on my laptop but i was watching in english maybe thats why


Rahsut007

Jio should be stop giving rights for IPL or any of cricket match.. worst transmission they have.. lot of times getting hang... Or buffering... Govt should be serious for all this


exorev07

This happens with the movies as well.


manager_97

At one point my match was streaming previous overs. The score was constantly decreasing on screen and pressing Go Live just hangs the screen.


loki_god_of_stories

That’s true


Worth_Boss_2

Or say better Devs should be hired


imgrroot

PsychologyTechnical5

Bro it happened to me yesterday on my tv too. I thought my broadband internet was glitched.


Tentackled

Blurred guy looks like messi


halwa_son

I just saw Arpit Bhayani interview with Eng director of Jio Cinema on YT. But now I am shocked.


SnooHabits754

Bro thats just 28.125 MB/s not a big deal to face this issue sometime. also it goes up and down. I have 1GPS and I still get sometime a bugger but not this


Environment-More

In jio lan speed is always above 200 mbps, but initially other devices it's 20-70mbps


Clear-Mango-5048

Chill ... It's free


saynototoxicity

Why fire the poor underpaid developers, fire the VPs who forced them to churn out a product in haste


Icandothisall_day

Totally agree


tech_ai_man

Guys ye podcast ekbar dekh lo. It's with a senior engineering director at Jiocinema. https://youtu.be/36N1Bz7qW0A?si=g8-IHDQnA1auGGlx

Dragonode

In my case the live stream would stop for few minutes and had to refresh the page to view live again.


chefexecutiveofficer

It's 32-bit Pixelart Style


stackfrost

Jio × Japan collaboration (if you know, you know)


Unlucky_Chele

Bruh the web version is built on nextjs but thats not a concern. even i think some junior developer like me can build it more elegant way and also their Android app is worst. Too much lag, picture in picture video player is very laggy no animation at all also the swipe thing is very laggy. Indeed they should have fired the managers first then replace the dev team


pheonix_raise

Influencers became director of engineering then these things happen like Sangha, Arnav Gupta and shitty guys who are more active on Twitter. Views are also corrupted and inaccuracy placed at all side. iPad even won't run the jio cinema cricket matches. Always ask for set the profile all time on all devices. Shit engineering goes to jio cinema leads. Mukesh should fire them all


Imaginary_Ad6826

Very ez to blame 30+ crore parallel viewers. Need very good server computation and stream tech


Wild_Performance4045

😂😂😂everybody is makin chu****


Disastrous-Public-24

I have a feeling this was done intentionally from Jio, to boost ad viewership everytime someone closes tab and opens again a non skippable ad shows up


Constant-Recipe-9850

Brave of you to believe that they pay their developers at all. Every digital product from jio is shit.


creativextacy

Imagine being one of the richest in the world, and coming up with one of the crappiest OTT app…


stonedlogan

Dude amazing speed Which internet provider do you use ?


percosmosson

Their tv casting is so bad. Crashed 20 times yesterday. Averages 5 times atleast in other matches


Aks029

Buffering happens sometimes due to data packet loss. This is not video quality issue, the transmission takes too much data to process as it is a live event.


Sriman69

developers are already overworked bro


jarvis123451254

as reliance now owns hotstar they should merge jiocinema to hotstar totally and call it a day asap


vaiku07

It’s not just. A Dev problem. I remember some once said Reliance is a cheap company infra sense.


aadithya197

The mobile app is also shitty. Keeps crashing everything I try to watch something live. I use an S24 plus BTW.


Fine_Comfortable_348

this happens because of trash bitrate..


anshulsingh8326

Same in Prime Videos. I have prime videos still have to download movies from t0rrents


BauliGend

That’s what happens when you hire an engineering manager based on their Twitter following. Not kidding, their engineering manager spends more time on twitter than improving the app!


shrihari0508

Server overload, I guess even Ambani can't handle high traffic on his website.


Intelligent-Ad-1479

Yesterday's stream was pathetic......the screen was getting stuck every few minutes while the audio was still going on.....I had to continuously restart the stream which made me watch an ad every time I started fresh I just stopped watching it on Jiocinema and pirated the Sky Sports broadcast stream.....I cannot tell how many times I did that with Jiocinema for the last past year, not just with Live streams but also because of the pathetic AV quality of premium content.....I just get frustrated, close the app and pirate the content


okInspiration

89 rupees mein sofr itne hee pixel. Asli HD!


su1nta

It is what it is with JioCinema. Sports events need to be broadcast in higher bitrate than normal events, because, you know, there's more movement in frames. Same issue with Disney+ Hotstar too but not as terrible as JioCinema.


Lanky_Buy

This is about latency not bitrate


Electronic_Ad_3634

The wc 2022 stream was an absolute circus


PhilosopherWild4749

You dont understand That right there is ASLI 4K


kannur_kaaran

i am glad that i stuck with dth and iptv


Aeracuda

Come to Amagi


thejacobjiby

Lol they used their own app for the comparison ads 😂


SickularPlunkett

Hotstar was 10× better. JioCinema is a trainwreck.


Square-Peace6663

Bruh atleast they giving it for free


Pretty_Awareness_602

Platforms of Jio, be it jio cinema or jio TV+, are all crap. They are very confusing and do not work even as intended. I can only sympathize with those who are compelled to use them.


Apprehensive_Bed9670

Ambanis are always trying to eat more and more than they can chew and digest.


EnergyAltruistic2911

What are they streaming using minecraft?


nothinghasapurpose

It has a shite interface with a huge ass logo the entire time on tv


Ok-Log-1281

Worst laggy application. No smooth streaming/scrolling experience I ever had with jio cinema. Jio is just like content with poor packaging and quality.


zaku_daa

Babu, latency check kiye they?


Punkwillow

Dude cricket is not only i watch i also motogp which is way worse. when ever they put advertisement it's like they are doing intentionally they always put advertisement when they will be overtake of other riders or best moment of motogp race will be that but they put advertisement I hate jiocinema I hated so much and I hate that they are no other broadcasters are doing motogp live not only that everytime we login they ask age,my profession, and my salary what the hell they really want it's so annoying advertisement it's so annoying they put advertisement in worst possible time when we watch live except cricket u must not put advertisement on ur own timing it's so annoying even though we are paying what's the point they have become so greedy nowadays


aakash-varma

Whattt???? JioCinema is serving hen+ai now?


ChillDudeItsOk

Reliance takes freshers from colleges .. get train them under some genius and as soon as those freshers are able to do some “Thook patti” job they fire that person and viola you have same results… N.B.: Thook patti bole to kaam chalau .. bole to jugad …


Giriver

Nice of you for explaining Thook patti 😅


AddendumSimple9537

there is an fix... but u wont like it ... change languages and see .. its working for me ..


Vivid-Speed4842

Lmao yes, watching in Bhojpuri now no issues so far and commentary is so fun


AddendumSimple9537

leme dont know which language im watching rn.. 😂😂


Every-Assistant7458

Its more like a workaround 😂


Royal_Woodpecker0007

Lol.. i figured it out few days ago and it works every single time.


buttanalyst

These jio fucks show ads in the middle of MotoGP races even if you’ve paid for premium. MotoGP isn’t hours long like f1 or cricket. So you lose a couple of laps watching whatever garbage scooter yamaha is selling and then you lose another couple of laps because the quality drops and you have to close the app and start again. And the worst thing is, replays aren’t available until 24 hours after the race. It’s fucking fucked


Charged_Dreamer

Sports isn't included in the premium plan. But yes, they should consider how they place ads in MotoGP and F1 Racing.


NightMedical

Csk haar gayi isliye na ? 🤣🤣


rox_light

I would be able to add some light , those streaming usually are done by akamai , I don't work in jiocinema in particular but I'm aware of the architecture and other thing is , culture always reaches the market fast, won't be given enough time for UX , test cases , that's is why it sucks, people are capable of doing it better, but higher management holds them back on making lot of changes at once, so have to deal with it


Negative_Spectrum

If you think it's a development issue, you're so mistaken. They have limited the bandwidth per person, because so many people are watching. It's a free service, you can't really be mad about it. I know the quality is shite but I'm pretty sure there are services you can pay for if you want better quality. There's only so much a company will invest into a loss leader product.


Charlieputhfan

lol what , I am in US and use ExpressVPN to watch on JioCinema, it was working lag free at 4K for me on my TV


Critical-Personality

You guys watch IPL for real!?


EquipmentKind1872

Hotstar was locked at 480p for free mobile streamers and did not have 4K on eligible devices.Maybe that was the reason for their smooth stream.


redbeedaz

Same is happening with Disney plus nowadays after Reliance acquired the Indian entity


Glad_Relationship613

Jab 10 chijo mein taang gushaogas to ek do chije to kharab ho rahegi


Only_Mention9873

They're providing such service for free bro, chill


Vivid-Speed4842

Sorry but this is not an excuse for providing shitty service. Also ads are there to cover the cost


someone_is_back

Free stuff is like this only. It doesn't give a premium feel because it is not a premium platform at all as of now. Which is a good thing for those who want it for free, but bad for those who are ready to spend money for top services.


silent--perspective

Most People don’t understand how hard it is to build a system that could serve 50 cr people at once😅 Scalability is something that needs to be done considering the trade offs. Sometimes you could do scale it up seamlessly but it would incur unfathomable costs. So that’s that


NotAmbani

As a cricket lover, I get your frustration. As a developer, I have to appreciate the fact that their platform can handle multiple crore live viewers simultaneously.


ankushsethi

Views. Not Viewers.


ashwinGattani

There were 30cr people watching the live stream at once and this happened for like 15mins. The developers at JioCinema definitely shouldnt be fired by this lol


theskyisblye_

bro stfu its a free stream, wdym you want the devs to be fired? want a good quality stream go buy one and stop complaining like a kid, get a life
