Does anyone know why the live feed on the Sky News website has become so rubbish in recent weeks?

The problems started for me when they replaced the international feed which had the skynews.com overlay with the UK feed. The picture is constantly pixelating and going blurry which makes the ticker and graphics impossible to read and randomly it will stop all together and buffer. I never had these problems before they made this change.

I have started to watch Sky News on YouTube now but then of course you have the joy of an advert kicking in randomly during a press conference or report but at least its of watchable and readable quality on there

I never see an advert on the Sky News YouTube feed and it runs in our office (via a Raspberry Pi) all day.

They replaced the YouTube feed in January (the link changed, I had to reprogramme the internal website we use to view it) and it now doesn't carry any subtitles, which is a shame.
