I had it stop on me for a very brief period of time but, other than that, it has been working fine for me this afternoon. Overall, it has been working great since they worked out the early-season glitches.
Help. I can't find any links for the Toronto game that will open and play. I just get "can't find server" or a black window that says done with nothing. Any suggestions? Anyone? Anyone? Bueller?
If the TFC game is one carried by the CBC in Canada (today's was, Wednesday will not be), you can watch the stream from the CBC site: http://www.cbc.ca/sports/soccer/streams/ If you are not in Canada you may need to use: http://www.freepoxy.ca/ (paste the CBC URL into the textbox). The CBC site also has all the previous TFC games they have covered archived on the site, so you can go back and watch any of them. Cheers!
All week long, the LA-DC game was listed to be shown. Then sometime during the day today, the information changed. But not before I had already made my plans. I turned to my computer at 10:30 - no game. Screwed.
you really can't trust the website. I know that sounds retarded, but I got burned just like you did earlier this season. Just go by what channel it is on to determine if it will be on mlslive. As far as the quality of the product, it has been much better the last few weeks for me. I have been pleased to see them activate the channels early for the matches. The channel for the cRapids-TFC match was live at least 15 minutes before the match coverage even came on.
Here's a thought: not everyone is in the US and therefore can't get DK and are reliant upon MLStv for coverage. Though I am disappointed in my ability to be as dismissive and condescending as you are.
Direct Kick for me means I would have to upgrade my cable package; not just buy the DK package. The whole point may be moot soon, however. I am mulling the latest bundling option from Comcast that will enable me to get DK and not cost a bunch extra every month.
What bitstream speed are you guys/gals getting? They promised 450K but it looks to be around 300K at best. OK for a small window but gets too pixilated when I enlarge.
It still can be much better, I think it is quite better than last year. I can usually watch it on full screen this season.
I watch it on the middle size. It's not bad. What gets me, are the freeze ups. I find myself closing it down and rejoining. My other beef is the lack of DC United.
I haven't had any freeze-up syet this year. I do agree that it seems like certain teams are on there all the time and others are rarely on there. FCD hasn't had many matches on mlslive this year either.
Maybe I'm spoiled since I'm an MLB PREMIUM member (700K, MUCH better quality, can watch up to 6 games simultaneously), but this was a waste of $20.
Mine usually hovers around 400k during the game. I have no complaints with the service, except for the blacked-out games, especially the Telefutura matches, which still makes no sense to me whatsover.
They black out all "network" games - FSC, Telefutura, ESPN2 and HDNet. Of course, the pity is that they don't even archive them for an on-demand viewing at a later date.
Telefutura doesn't make sense to me, either. Without satellite national feeds, I don't stand a chance as there isn't a Telefutura outlet in the entire state of Michigan. This, however, is even more stupid. How many people outside of diehard MLS fans actually get all these channels? I don't, but that's because I can't afford it (that's another story). At the very least, they should archive it. I know they have the capability as I have watched an MLB game on FOX archived that couldn't have been watched online live, as it was a national broadcast.
DISH Network carries Telefutura nation wide. DirecTV carries it nation wide with a spanish package. I hate it as much as anybody else, but there are ways to see it.
i recently just bought this mlslivetv and actually have found it to be worth my money even if the quality isnt great. since i only get basic cable and have just recently bought Fox Soccer Channel. i find that this 20 dollars i spent to be the best money i spent in awhile and to keep me informed and kept up in this league which i was not a believer in, until this year. and while i may be a new fan this year and only a LFC fan before this, i see the MLS growing in skill and popularity here and it has defiently gotten my attention this year especially the suprisingly exciting play from New York which i would see getting many fans across the US and would hope all the millions of youth soccer players here in the US would watch them and get hooked and move this league even more.
I bought it for the first time, this year. I would have to say it has bee worth every cent. My only problem is that you can't watch two games at the same time. other then that. I will continue to purchase every year that I can afford it.
