DGT Board on "Live" vs. "Play"

Hi,

I've been using my "new" DGT board to play rapid games on chess.com.  It seems to work well when I start a game using the "Live" interface, to include the voice commentary extension for Chrome.  But, the board doesn't stay connected and the voice module doesn't work if  I use the newer "Play" interface on chess.com.

Is anyone else having similar issues?  It's fine for now, but I expect they will retire the "Live" interface at some point.

Thanks

Hi,

Here's an update on my chess.com DGT experience.

- The voice commentary plug in for chrome has been updated and works for "Play" now, but stopped working for "Live"

- I'm still having issues with the game hanging and board losing synch on "Play", but it works well on "Live"

Does anyone have a DGT board that is working with the chess.com "Play" interface?

How do you access the live play mode, when I go to play a game it naturally defaults to live anyway but I don’t get the DGT voice commentary, which works fine on lichess. I have the voice commentary app downloaded…..

That does exist anymore. Play is the live interface.
