See between the arrows in my screenshot (removed) at midday today.
It was like this yesterday as well, but was not there a few days ago.

It's certainly more noticeable full screen.

I'm wondering whether there's also camera/feed issues in addition to the streaming problems. Thinking about it, the previous grainy picture appearance looked alot like a camera struggling with light/dark contrast(?).
EDIT - the picture was also glitching a bit as well at about 1:35pm today.

The player still seems stuck on a Medium quality setting as well, that's when the quality button hasn't disappeared once loaded.

I have just logged on to sexstation and i agree guys there is a problem with the horizontal bars and the problem is more pronounced on fullscreen.
Its quite hard to spot on the reduced screen and otherwise my picture quality is good with all three quality options available on my player.
I wonder if sexstation are aware of the picture quality issues? Im assuming that they regularly check the forum posts and so they probably do.I agree with the watcher that this has only recently become a problem.

I Agree with the previous posts regarding the Horizontal bars, also mine seems to be running at 3/4 of the speed it normally does, also the general picture Quality is not as good as it was a couple of weeks ago (when before it was crystal clear).

I have noticed the same issue it started yesterday 27_04_2010 for me.. (Well in my browser anyway and i expect we all see the same)!! Both IE8 and Firefox

Anyone having picture problems tonight? I notice that the horizontal bars are still present and if anything a little worse than yesterday.Ive also had some picture flickering early in Kiran Khans show but thankfully that seems to have resolved.Also had a few connection errors as well.

Hopefully when the Webshow Producer next visits he'll be kind enough to give us an insight into the problems they've been having.

It's very rarely the browser these days that causes issues, I checked it in Opera, Safari and Chrome as well (I had a few spare minutes), it's the same in all of them.

picture quality is awful tonight.

Well, they certainly seem to be having problems. It just took me over 5 Min's to get the stream to finally work, and then it seemed sluggish.

The horizontal bars scrolling up the screen, seem to be a similar problem that Elite's stream had a few weeks back, and that was a loose earth cable causing interference.

But the sluggish, and intermittent stream definitely seems to be a supplier issue, which was there problem last time.

What happened that day (tuesday) is we moved studios so we didn't get back online to after lunch. Took a bit longer than we expected but we got there eventully.

We now have a bigger studio and air condtioning!!

The feint horizontal bars are still visible in the display today.
