The quality is AWESOME!!!! NASN can go jump. It perfect TV picture on my 22" monitor...:D

Fantastic quality.. And the great value of the dollar makes the premium package very reasonable at around 80 euro..

zuutroy

I was in awe looking at the demo....pity about the subject matter

Kinda32

oh i thought it was excellent!!! Oh the memories!!! Lets hope for more of the same this year!!! You will be able to enjoy the Jays opener against the yanks in glorious quality now though

MrJoeSoap

NHL.com take note. That is awesome.

Hockey isn't even worth watching on anything less than that. Still looks class on a 42" monitor!

Haven't followed for a year or two but i'll give it a shot, sure. Whens the deadline?

zuutroy

Draft in a few weeks..check the thread for info

That really is impressive. In fact, I'm going to MLB.com right now to buy this year's subscription!

zuutroy - can you tell me again how I connect my laptop to my tv? I've bought the connector cable but I can't get it working.

zuutroy

Its been a while now so I could be very rusty...firstly your video card has to have an s-video output which I guess it does, then its just a matter of connecting up the two and going into the menu of your video card and sending the output to the TV. Should be as simple as that.

zuutroy

OK, I'm going to fcking kill someone...I can see nothing, no games load, nothing comes up the popup window....What a joke...

Kinda32

Is your Gameday working??

Kinda32

ok reason i asked is mine wasn't last night and i upgraded my mozilla firefox to the latest version. Both Gameday and Mlbtv working well now at the moment.. fingers crossed..

zuutroy

Well I finally got it working after finding out that I had to download another piece of software which they never told me about. The picture quality with Silverlight is atrocious, and really choppy..TV quality...pfft...what a laugh.....Sickening setup.

What was the additional software you had to download? The stream on my laptop has been intermittent so far, sounds like the same problem you've had.

I've downloaded that already, hmmm. Well, I'm going to put in a few late nights this weekend to watch the Jays home opening series against the Red Sox, hopefully the technical glitches will have been ironed out then. If not, I'll have to get on to them to complain.

zuutroy

I'd encourage everyone here to send them an email about the condensed games going missing. There's absolute uproar on the MLB board, and on the MLB Mosaic support forum. I really hope they listen, but my gut feeling is they won't.

WATPOAE

I'm happy to report that my mlb.tv feed is working very well now thank god. Quality at 1.2mb is excellent.

I am disappointed with the removal of the condensed game feature too. That was always a great feature especially for watching games you have missed from the night before. Hopefully they will add it back in.

zuutroy

Finally got a reply from someone who seems to know whats going on:


Robert – Thank you very much for your note regarding your inability to get the Condensed Games. We apologize for the delay in providing you this content, but the product is not gone forever. Its launch this year was slightly delayed due to the several unforeseen factors around Opening Day. That being said, we fully expect the product to be available in May. In the interim, I would recommend you use our new video search page and watch the Rewind Recaps. We have them for every game, every day. Thanks for your patience and we look forward to providing you with the Condensed Games as soon as possible.


Best regards,
