RaceControl VS issue-tracker

If you're using older 3rdparty clients like Race Control or f1viewer, then the stream has double the bitrate than with /r/F1MultiViewer or the official app (both show the video bitrate through debug menu). You can also easily verify this for archived races by downloading the stream segments with your preferred browser and decrypting the non widevine protected video with the key from the m8u3 file.

My dude change the name RC has already been an F1 program https://github.com/robvdpol/RaceControl

Iirc RaceControl allows you to download older races where DRM has been removed.

Or watch on a PC. Some helpful redditor made and shared RaceControl, it's great if you have a large screen or multiple screens. I usually have the broadcast running on my primary screen and telemetry+some driver cams on secondary. It can also sync streams (or at least tries its best).

makes me miss RaceControl, i would fit 6 feeds on my 21:9 screen and perfectly sync them live and for replays too.

Race Control is one of the previously popular 3rdparty clients for f1tv, but like f1viewer, they rely on external players that don't support streaming with widevine DRM.

This ia one of the reasons many people on /r/F1TV suggest /r/F1MultiViewer and previously other 3rdparty viewers like Race Control and F1Viewer, before they introduced DRM to the live streams this year in April.

At some races I feel like things might get interesting I simply use F1 Race Control anyway with F1 TV and just put up the world feed with a bunch of other feeds right next to it. Couple of onboards for example to keep track of some fighting going on.

Multivewer is great app if you are watching F1 on your computer, as it intentionally skips using any thumbnail images just this exact reason to avoid spoilers.

Since pictures are worth a thousand words, allow me to refer you to their web site at https://multiviewer.app/

yeah. The live coverage is pretty good, having the ability to pick driver cams, rewind etc makes for a better experience IMHO. And with multiviewer and multiple monitors you can pretend you're race control :D. And the archive is a godsend during breaks. It contains most of the races since like 1981.

Download MultiViewer here - https://multiviewer.app/

Sure, I can try to answer as much as I can! Multivewer is a computer only app (PC, Mac, Linux) that you can download here.
