BT Sport and Sceenic brought to live a revolutionary way to watch sports inside the new BT Sport app. ´Match Day Experience´ the UK’s most immersive sports experience, rolls out Watch Together for all EE 5G and iPhone 12 users.
BT Sport's exciting new innovation will allow customers using the award-winning BT Sport app on mobile devices to watch, see and chat with friends in a split-screen view while streaming BT Sport channels.
Amazon is the latest service to add a feature to allow viewers to watch together. It essentially allows users to engage in text chats while watching videos in synchronisation but is currently limited to viewing in a desktop browser. Meanwhile, BT Sport has brought forward the release of its Watch Together feature, which allows audio and visual chat, while viewing live sport in an app.
Episode #4 of the Broadcast Tech Talks podcast series is with BBC sports and news presenter Gavin Ramjaun.
Up until a month or so ago, being a sports presenter was a fairly predictable role, reporting on the day’s live sports. Like everything else in life right now, coronavirus has turned the role of sports presenter and journalist on its head. Coronavirus has become the subject matter, and in particular how it’s devastated the sporting calendar of 2020.
