tried watching the wozzeck but encountered prohibiting transmission difficulties. able to connect without a problem but after a few minutes video would become incredibly "jerky." i never have problems with arte or medici. actually had some difficulties with the glyndbourne broadcasts this summer - so who knows?/it could be just me.
