Watching on my computer and AirPlaying to my large screen smart TV. First 5 minutes got buffering and invalid content messages on both. Then they disappeared and it's been perfect to intermission.. Wonderful.
I missed most of the 1st act because of work. Sure this has been covered, but the thread is long. Do I have to wait until the live stream is over to watch from the start? It allowed me to go back quite a bit for a while but now stuck at intermission.

Such a quiet but stunning act one finale. Truly a gem. I am so grateful that this has been captured.

That commercial for upcoming broadwayhd shows was hilarious.
I love it. I didn't get to see Laura Benanti when I went in April. So I am happy to be able to see her.
Broadway HD was so busy basking in their great positive publicity that they forgot to do their basic QA (testing) of what would actually happen when the switch was pulled on Thursday night.
Someone figured out the problem just in time to avert a disaster.
The. First few minutes were tough with buffering and error messages, but it's been clear sailing since.
And, yes, the camera work and sound have been great!
Had to refresh a few times just before it started, but once the show began, it's been smooth.
The show is marvelous. This is such a great thing. I'd definitely pay to watch more shows more often.
I am beyond impressed with everything. OVERJOYED that this jewel of a production is being preserved.

Oh, I forgot JCS was in there too. Hilariously repetitive.
Holy cow, this is SO good! I've always loved this show, but somehow I didn't get the best impression of this production from the Tonys, I guess because the numbers were so chopped up. But it's glorious. I'm really glad I watched!
The camera work is much more intricate than I expected. Great job. They need to have whoever is producing this do the Tonys and teach them how to use a camera properly.

Well that's an abrupt ending (I've never seen the show before).
ETA: that was a great broadcast, and I really hope they do more. Honestly I felt myself wishing they had done this with Gentleman's Guide.
