JIO Cinema hot take.

Maybe they are not good and i am just delusional

I believe it's more so a company culture issue. If the management probably wants features to be delivered in a short deadline even if the quality suffers, that's what happens

Also their culture to me seems to be more oriented for cashgrab than user experience. It took Netflix many years before they went to the deliver ads bandwagon. Jiocinema implemented it right from the start.

Netflix has tech Blogs because they work on leading edge work for search engine, recommendation system, in house tools for development. Innovation brings about new inventions, not pure greed. Jiocinema strategy is same as Jio: play on initial low cost, buy out the dying or non existent competition and then make everyone used to Jio Platform. EU or American like regulatory would have warned them already of monopolistic practices but here we are

That 18+ popup is so annoying man and sometime it goes for a infinite reload in the android tv. I mean i absolutely don't care about 10 camera angles for a cricket match instead they should do the basic right.

As a person who has done work of working with webcams, screen recording and combined streams with WebRTC, they are making a stupid mistake of not delaying the actual stream playback before the 18+ window or returning a promise. That button probably changes a variable to be true which allows actual playback So when the stream arrives before the window, that variable is false which triggers the infinite loader

Agree. Even for IPL they overcame the initial hiccups super fast. Good streaming experience, but app still looks like a hot mess.

Not sure how true is their 4k because yesterday india vs Australia match quality was very pixalated although my internet was absolutely fine.
