They're definitely making improvements. I couldn't get anything more than "Video Error" yesterday other than a few times and then it froze. Today it loads up fast and then freezes.. Step by step. I will say this though... I'm getting pretty god damn tired of beta test releases becoming the accepted norm these days. It's less than 2 days after the release but for as long as they've been shilling this thing it should have been top notch. They should have just outsourced the project to Netflix or Amazon.

Has anybody figured out the xbox 360 thing yet? I'm still having problems with it I tried to watch WrestleMania 19 on my laptop last night but it kept sorta buffering. I'm guess I'm going to have to try on my laptop again.

Is anyone having trouble watching on their ps3 or ipad? On both it doesn't load at all for me. Yesterday it wasn't loading completely and the on demand stuff I would try to watch, would just exit itself, and of back to the homepage. Today it loads but than it just freezes for a minute, plays again, and then 3 seconds later it freezes.

It's completely unwatchable for me on PS3. I tried about 4 different pay-per-views earlier. The only success I had was about 10 minutes of constant streaming on Survivor Series 1991, and then it froze.
The most success I've had thus far is with Firefox on my PC.

I havnt tried it on my PC yet. I'll try that. And my brother told me it might just be the internet connection, but everything else works on ps3 and iPad. Netflix all that doesn't have a problem, so it's the network. Hopefully they get this fixed or I won't be renewing after the free trial. I was just going to buy it instead of the free trial first, but thank god I did.

Almost everybody is having problems with the On Demand service right now even though WWE is only claiming 20% are having issues. I would say it's more like 20% of the users are able to use the service as it's supposed to be provided, while the other 80% get a middle finger and "be patient", and the 20% who do get to watch it are running around white-knighting for WWE.
It's frustrating as shit because I can download a file at good speeds, stream Netflix, and still play a video game with no lag... and yet I can't stream an ARCHIVED pay-per-view.

Honestly, I'm not surprised they are experiencing all these technical difficulties. Even though they worked closely with MLBTV in developing the WWE Network, I figured they would underestimate the purchases during day 1/week 1. Even still, I figured the large amount of volume and demand would pose problems. The WWE statement said they expected issues to be resolved by 6PM today. INCORRECT! It will probably take them 2-3 weeks to get this think up and running perfectly in my opinion. But I think it will be fine by Wrestlemania.

The network has worked pretty much fine for me since it launched apart from taking a while to initially sign up. I tried at about 6:15 am pacific time and it was a locked up. I tried again around 11 and it was slow and froze like twice but then I got in. I haven't had any problems playing anything really. I've been using my phone ipad and Apple TV. On my phone it was a little choppy but that was cause of my reception. Same with my ipad when I was in the garage but that's my router causing that issue. Seems like I'm one of the only ones without any issues. I was hoping for more attitude era raw but they never did say thee would be a certain amount so I can't complain. Hopefully they'll add more. But there's just so much stuff on here I'll never be bored again. I do wish if you quit watching something it would pick up where you left off like netflix but they'll probably add that feature later.

Just popped in WCW Battlebowl 1993. Was able to chapter skip to where I left off with no issues. No buffering either. Fingers crossed

I can use the VoD just fine so long as I don't skip ahead, but considering I'm really in the mood for a Lesnar beatdown and I'm an impatient motherfucker this poses a problem. To inform Tech Support!

Occasional Pre-Show
I'm watching the Live stream on my tablet fine but still not playing on my desktop computer. Any archived stuff still isn't loading for me.
Right now on the Live Stream is an old Monday Night Raw. Man I miss hearing Vince and Macho Man on commentary as well as Lord Michael Hayes. Really bringing me back!

the 2 main PPVs I wanna watch is WrestleMania 6 and the King of the Ring which Owen Hart won.
NO! NO! NO! Finally froze at 50:00
At least it appears to be getting better.
I was able to watch about 20 minutes last night on my PS4 before it froze. It's making progress.

I was able to watch about 15 minutes of Heatwave '98 last night. Got past the part where Francine shoves Joey Styles' face into her tits, and a little bit into the Credible vs. Jerry Lynn match and it froze, and sent me back to the main menu.
Tried Battle Bowl '93 this morning thinking MAYBE... just MAYBE it might be operational. Nope. Got almost to the end of Norris/Stevie Ray vs. Vader/Cactus Jack and it hard froze. All of this on the PS3.
They're definitely working on it but if they don't have it operational by the end of the first week in march then they should really consider refunding peoples money and calling it a fucking open beta test, and worry about charging people money later. I don't care if it's $9.99/mo or $0.99/mo, service should be rendered as its advertised.. and they certainly didn't say "SHILL SHILL SHILL.. GET THE WWE NETWORK AND WATCH WHAT WE WANT YOU TO ON THE LOOPED LIVE STREAM... and get the chance to see a little bit of our on demand library before it freezes."
I'm already pissed because there's no Legends House, or Monday Night War at launch. That was a big selling point for me to get it immediately. I would have just saved myself the frustration and waited to make the purchase until right before Mania.

I'm going to attempt to do something crazy. Every PPV on there in sequential order. I'm insane. However, I feel it will be awesome to relive all of these moments and history inside of their context.

Was working for a little but for me on my iPad. Tried watching summerslam loaded fine, then tried to skip to the punk Lesnar match worked for a bit then froze out.

Yeah, skipping ahead seems to be causing the VoD to crash at the moment, it's a constant problem with me too.
The_Reptile_
Pre-Show Stalwart
Alright, VoD's working fine for Mania 17. I'll watch Austin/Rock then check out Extreme Rules 2012.
The_Reptile_
Pre-Show Stalwart
After doing some testing around, I think the Extreme Rules 2012 video might be bad. Whenever I skip to a certain part of the show the video skips ahead a few seconds and then freezes. I've tried different timestamps and it's fairly consistent. I haven't run into this problem with any other show on VoD. Can anyone confirm?
