Probably this is connected with the mobile roulette table in the Playtech studio, dealers are already working at the table ...
Unclefester, does anything happen on that Playtech floor that you don't notice! :D

After a few months testing with dealers working at the table :-
Mobile roulette is on the verge of going live (if not already open) for bet365 players on their phones and tablets.
Eventually more mobile casinos will offer the table also.
My Android tablet doesn't support the site :( - even though it has not been updated and Flash Player still works ... read here
bet365 are now promoting the Live Casino app available to download from the App Store to play on iPhone or iPad.

Big start to the year for bet365!
Dedicated room, App in App Store...what's next?
This is the further details page / pop-up on selecting "more details" button ... more like a rewording than more details :confused:

You're not wrong there...
I suspect that the App is will only be available to UK residents. When I search the App Store I get...
If anyone outside the UK (and who can access their normal online casino) has any luck with the App, pls shareQuote:

Attachment 1038 ... This is the bet365 App description in the App Store
Compatible with - iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, iPhone 4S, iPhone 5, iPod touch (3rd-5th generation) and iPad. Optimized for iPhone 5.
Requires iOS 4.3 or later.
The mobile roulette table is available from bet365's mobile casino site - mobile.bet365.com/casino
Whereas the bet365 App provides the opportunity to play on the 2 main roulette tables at Playtech Euro - Aphrodite & Vesta.
But not the mobile table.

Can't say I was as impressed with the bet365 App as playing on the mobile roulette table
With my slow broadband often the App wouldn't let me join the tables due to "video streaming timeout" compared with playing normally at the tables on a laptop where the video would just freeze briefly.
Attachment 1075 ... this timeout screen is as far as I get with the App sometimes
The dedicated mobile roulette table always seems to open and looks much better video quality.

Wonder why they don't use the same tables for App and mobile casino site? Guess there's some technical reason.
Just from your pics above, the video looks much clearer on the mobile site version.
Possibly the video feed from the mobile roulette is encoded in a suitable formatcodec enhanced for mobile devices. Whereas the regular tables video are in another format suitable for pc's that the App then has to convert to make playable for mobile devices:confused:
Such a conversion may explain the loss of quality for the regular tables.
Another thought that occurs to me about playing on mobile devices .... perhaps the Playtech standard 30 second game rounds are a bit too fast for players, especially on phones. I imagine it could be tricky to place complex bets within time on small screens, without mistakes and time for corrections ?
Could be right Fester. Although the speed I see people texting these days, some mobile players will be faster on the phone than they are on the PC!
Be interested to see how popular these games become on mobile phones. For me...iPad is about as small as I'd want to go. In fact...prefer to go the other way and play on a 50" tv (of course you lose a little portability with this option)
I know what you mean LD about the speed with which people text. Also, with auto correct, .. and small mistakes don't really matter anyway.
Just I'm not sure about placing several split, street or corner bets on such a small screen when sums of money are involved in the 30 seconds.
I'm still having a very poor success rate of getting the App to open the tables. Always getting "video streaming timeout" and told to try again.
Just gone back to the App store to see by any chance if there was already a new version of the App ... not yet !
I did notice some reviews (not many yet as it is so new), other people were saying they were having similar difficulties on strong Wifi , and also about playing on iPhone.
