JFS179 3,772 Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 I usually stream through the blu-ray, but I've been watching on the laptop tonight with the Final Four on the TV. Managed to make the bottom thing disappear (shows a line of the game, play, ff, rewind, etc.) I don't have their stupid plug in that allows the DVR functionality, but I assume there's a way to get that back if I want it?

I don't think MLB.TV ever gets to 1080p. Seems like it caps at 720 and if I'm streaming a few games and downloading something I'll get bumped to 480. Link to post Share on other sites
JFS179 3,772 Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 It's been OK through the blu-ray, but I probably won't do that too often. I do try to make sure I'm not streaming something else or going nuts with other devices though... Picture's much sharper on the computer though. Link to post Share on other sites
holyBrowns 483 Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 My 360 says it's always getting HD, i've got an 8 meg/s plan. I think you need 3-5 at least for HD streaming. The Xbox doesn't tell you what it's streaming in (720 or 1080), just has an HD symbol that's lit up when it's streaming in HD. Link to post Share on other sites
HR Pufnstuf 7 Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 Anyone having trouble getting games to load? I downloaded the plugin and deleted it by mistake. I'm not sure if thats why it has stopped working. Real annoying. Was going smoothly too until recently. Link to post Share on other sites
Stickfig13 1,337 Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 Streaming on my PS3 is brutal. I hate not being able to check the box of other games without stopping the game you are watching. Last year you could see who was up too. Constant freezing and buffering. They'd need to get it together Link to post Share on other sites

I do couple it up with the stat tracker on yahoo so i know when the players on my team are up. Unless the indians are playing then i just leave that game on. Link to post Share on other sites
gallandro 37 Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 NexDef does allow you to watch the game using ballpark sounds only (which is a huge relief if you want to watch a game with annoying announcers on both feeds). Or, as I'm doing now for the Braves games, watching the game using the radio team's feed. So it's worth it, if you can get it to work. I was finally able to get it to work by downloading the file running firefox in safe mode, then watching the games on internet exploder. Link to post Share on other sites
msuna 18 Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 Anyone know why we can't see before the game starts. Why do I have to wait for the game to start to play the game on xbox/ps3? Link to post Share on other sites

Smallball 479 Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 It looks like all of mlb's services went out including the iphone app, and the mobile website, but all is back up as far as I can tell. Link to post Share on other sites

Howd you make the bottom thing disappear? I can get it off for about a second, and then I'll put the controller down and it returns. It's been extremely frustrating so far.

posty 1,373 Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 RIP Reuben... http://blog.zap2it.com/pop2it/2013/05/mlb-tv-worker-dies-after-suffering-a-heart-attack-at-turner-field.html Reuben Porras, an MLB TV worker, died on May 1 after suffering a heart attack in on off-field media room at Atlanta, Ga.'s Turner Field. He was 61. The local cameraman collapsed before the Washington Nationals played against the Atlanta Braves. He was setting up for MLB Network, which is slated to broadcast the last game between the two teams on May 2, the Associated Press reports. Lee Kuntz, Washington's head athletic trainer, and his assistant John Hsu were able to stabilize and initially were able to revive Porras. He was brought to a hospital where he died from the heart attack. The team learned about the death after the May 1 game started. Link to post Share on other sites

96mnc 6,747 Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 (edited) Is it possible to download games from MLB.TV to watch when you don't have an internet connection (like on a plane)? I'm flying cross country tomorrow and would love to download the Harvey-Santiago matchup and the Kazmir game from today to watch while flying.
