Anyone have an idea what this manager mode is all about, just appeared this morning on the BT Sport app on Samsund Smart TV?

Whereabouts? it's not there on mine.

I'm guessing it will be Manage Devices?

A couple of observations from my own viewing experience.

tonight watching second half of the ManU Southampton game ,

when invoking the manager mode the stream has a further time lag of about 90 seconds to the stream when manager mode is not selected.

the ball motion seems also to be affected when the manager mode is invoked.

Manager mode is a little behind the live feed - it takes a fair amount of AI processing to add the overlays. We're working on bringing it down significantly though - to just a few seconds.

Will it go 50fps too? Currently, only getting 25fps

It's currently restricted to the same profile as BT Sport Extra channels, so yes - currently just at 25fps. It's a popular feature though, and will definitely be seeing more improvement and investment.
