I have been entering the names into the search button and its interesting what comes up. For instance I put in Terry Gordy and they have 19 different matches for him, most of them from WCCW from early 83 from what i can tell by the screen caps. But the matches won't load. I think it means they will be loaded in the very near future.

 

If you use the search almost every wrestler name pops up like its ready when they have a match eventually loaded on the VOD. I mean everyone. Even jobbers like AJ Petruzzi and Raul Mata. Except for a couple that I tried…..Randy Savage and Lanny Poffo are nowhere in the search. I didn't try Chris Benoit because I don't care.

The only complaint I have so far is say you are watching an old PPV like Wrestlemania 3 which is the first thing I picked. I watched a little stopped and went back to browsing. It does not pick up from where you stopped. You have to start it back over from the beginning.

 

Can you simply fast forward / drag the scroll bar back to where you were? It would suck to watch 2 hours of a PPV, have to run out to do something else, comeback later (or the next day) and sit through the same dame 2 hours again.

 

FWIW, I think some of the Olympics replay streaming was like that - no obvious scroll bar to drag / skip forward.

 

You can scroll forward and back but the problem is there is no image when you are doing this like say when you are using the HBO GO app. Its kind of frustrating. I was watching WM 3 and scrolling forward and just guessing when to stop. This was while using Apple. But when I put it on Barely Legal on my PS3 it had chapters and everything. It was perfect. Each bookmark was a match and you could just use the controller to go to right to the particular matches you want to see. Then I put on Starrcade 86 on PS3 and it had no bookmarks. So I think its only on some and not all. My PS3 will barely do anything. Its been awful. Apple has been great loading and very minor buffering issues so far.

On Demand is not working well on anything but Computers right now. iPhone, iPad, and Apple TV is very hit and miss with On Demand stuff.

 

Live stream worked perfectly on Apple TV.

 

Everything working great on computer. This stuff will resolve itself over the next week. The big thing is the live stream is doing well everywhere, which is what is needed for PPV success. On Demand fixes seem like they are easy fixes.

Several of the WCW and ECW PPVs wouldn't load for me on PS3. Some will, some won't, it's very hit and miss

 

It took me about an hour just to sign up earlier today. Beyond trying to sign up and actually getting the ap working on my PS3 took up an hour of my time and I haven't done too much exploring of the acutal content yet. I know it was brought up here and many other places in the months prior to this launch, but setting it up where everyone was signing up and downloading the app at roughly the same exact time was just asking for trouble. When I went to wwe.com to sign up the lead headline was "TECHNICAL DIFFICULTIES". Apparently their entire web site crashed due to the traffic early on, which is kind of crazy because they are generally a high traffic website. I'm sure they had their reasons for doing it that way, but from what I've been reading today people have had major problems signing up, and to your less decicated or less computer saavy wrestling fan I'm guessing a lot of people just said "f this" and gave up

I have no clue what how to buy this thing. I'm trying through WWE.com right now and it's terribly confusing.

 

Apparently, we have the free trial, but the videos aren't working. I can't actually figure out how to buy it though.

 

EDIT: Problem fixed. Just had to figure out where to buy it. Working fine.

Sat at work all day reading about the issues people were having, only to come home and get totally signed up on the first attempt!!

 

Then I logged onto 360, and found out that it's not working on there yet. Keeps telling me the user name or password are incorrect. This is apparently happening to most X-Box users. :(

 

Oh well, it is working on my computer until they get it fixed. For some reason I decided to start with Bash 88 and the Triple Tower of Doom!!

I can't get anything to play for longer than a few minutes on the Roku 2. If I get lucky enough for to even play in the first place. It states an error occurred try again in a few minutes.

 

I also notice ppvs missing. For example WCW 99 and 93 only have two listed. Very strange. Hopefully it will be better in the next few days as I don't have anymore time to mess around with it tonight.

Have you or anybody else on here actually been able to watch something that is on the future schedule or from the searches that come up and that is not in the vault? I have attempted to watch the "upcoming" WCCW and ECW shows and to no avail. I searched Ric Flair matches and the Kerry Von Erich cage match is there in the results but it doesn't play. I am wondering if its just a first day issue or do they have to play on the network stream before being dumped into the vault to watch. Sorry if this sounds confusing. Just wondering if anybody else is running into the same thing.
