When I try to live stream from the meerkat app on my S3 the quality is horrible. Why?

AC Question

Is it simply a case of the S3 being too old to handle live streaming? That sucks if it's the case, I want to use this technology without needlessly upgrading my phone.

I've tried on network (Fido) and wifi, both with the same result: on my phone, the video looks like and I even get viewers. But when I watch the stream live on my computer the quality is blurred and choppy to the point that you can't make anything out.
