Betfair have about the fastest pictures for UK races so its unlikely you'll find RSA pictures any faster than they provide

4-5 second delay is probably as short as you'll get.

If there was we'd all be using them and not Betfairs (or bet365's), it would also save the faffing about of placing small bets early on every race to access them.

I'm surprised they've never offered unlimited access for a subscription or done a free audio only. Suspect the RUK and ATR deals don't permit it.

Placing these trades, not early, but late, has taught me more than almost anything else about trading price movements. I now deliberately use them as trading education for a huge variety of race types and conditions, such that the market now pays me to watch betfair live video.

I don't think that's going to win you the surprise gift. ;)

Dont be putting ideas in there head :lol:

For me the easiest solution is just to have some sort of rolling credit where every 5 bets placed on a racing market you get a video credit to access another.

Hello, thanks for all help/advice.
Can annyone please look what is the difference between the live stream for South African racing via Satelite from ATR and the live stream from betfair, so i can decide if it is worth it to install the satelite.Thank you so much!

Bookies streams will always beat bookie funded ATR.

BF is about 2s delay and ATR streamed is about 16s. No idea what the satelite version is because BF is the fastest and 2 or 3s is fine for what I do. Bookies platforms will always be faster because that's where they want you to watch it.
