The study estimates that nearly 15 million people (28%) have had goals spoiled because the broadcast they were watching was lagging behind the live action.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>The issue typically causes streamed content to display a few seconds behind the action itself, which in some cases can even stretch into the tens of seconds. As a result, somebody listening via the radio or watching the live action via a terrestrial digital TV channel will often see the event take place before those viewing a stream on broadband connected devices.<\/p>\n<p>The problem itself is nothing new, as all internet-connected networks suffer delays to video streams for various different reasons. In some cases, this could simply be down to a slow broadband ISP or mobile connection, as well as the need for a video stream to buffer and cache itself for a few moments before it starts playing. The latency times of your home network and broadband ISP can also have a tiny impact, but nothing too significant.<\/p>\n<p>However, one of the biggest sources for such delays will occur because the content has to be converted into digital video data for streaming and then decoded at the customers end. The amount of delay that such issues cause can vary between platforms and broadcast types, but even a handful of seconds is often enough to create some irritation. Likewise, even digital terrestrial TV will have some extra delay vs the now discontinued analogue signals.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #339966;\"><strong>Delay compared to live action for various broadcast types (Uswitch)<br \/>\n<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<table width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"2\" cellpadding=\"2\" border=\"0\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"bq3\"><strong>Rank<\/strong><\/td>\n<td class=\"bq3\"><strong>Broadcast type<\/strong><\/td>\n<td class=\"bq3\"><strong>Average delay (seconds)<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>1<\/td>\n<td>Analogue Radio<\/td>\n<td>Near instantaneous<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>2<\/td>\n<td>Digital Radio<\/td>\n<td>Between 1 and 2 seconds<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>3<\/td>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ispreview.co.uk\/index.php\/link\/satellite\">Satellite<\/a> television<\/td>\n<td>Between 0.9 seconds and 2.2 seconds<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>4<\/td>\n<td>Digital terrestrial TV<\/td>\n<td>More than 1 second<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>5<\/td>\n<td>Cable television<\/td>\n<td>About 5 seconds<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>6<\/td>\n<td>Streaming<\/td>\n<td>Between 10 and 45 seconds<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>The survey then asked football fans whether they have had a goal spoiled due to the broadcast they were watching having a delay over the live action, which resulted in 9% saying &#8220;<em>Yes<\/em>&#8221; because they had received a goal alert on their phone before they saw the goal go in on the stream.
