Does the camera work for the Penn at Cornell lacrosse game seem especially a) jerky, as if the camera isn't on a tripod even though it is (press box swaying in the wind?) or Cornell/CSTV have found even cheaper encoding software, b) too zoomed-in and/or the pan head is sticking, so you miss the guy catching the pass, and c) lacking in replays?
If there's constant in our lives, it's the quality of CSTV's webcasts.

The only truly bad part so far has been the lack of ability to actually cover play on the right side of cornell's offensive end. The cameraman also is getting confused who has the ball sometimes.

As usual, way too zoomed in. I wish the camera men had some idea that their job is to cover the field, not the player with the ball. But its been that way for a good couple years now (for hockey and lax), and I've basically given up hope that it'll change.

I'm impressed that there is video. I dropped my subscription at the end of hockey season because I wasn't even sure they'd get their act together for lax (which is actually at a reasonable time for my time zone).

Henry Bartlett with goal No. 6 made an awesome shot, to hear the announcers erupt, and he was off camera as it happened. Sheesh.
Ditto for goal #19, the first goal for a freshman from Delbarton School, Max Dorne (sp?). Another awesome shot we didn't see. Sheesh.

Absolutely not possible, according to some posters here. Every broadcast has been pristinely wonderful on every attempt by All-Access!!!!!oneoneoneelven!!!

I'm rather annoyed that more than 48-hours after the game, neither video nor audio are available on the archives
