Over 29 years of fanhood Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 I have it as well. I am worried my 2.5 Mbps connection will be an issue. We'll see… anyone else that slow? User interface seems nifty... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

User interface seems nifty... I think your speed will be fine. I am concerned that they won't be able to figure out the jumping from segment to segment and interspersing (sp?) the audio from commercials and all around choppiness. Its a great thought but i honestly think that people relying on this to watch the games today are going to be disappointed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gibran Chandan Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 I can't find a clear answer on this - is there a free preview this weekend on PS3 for customers who can't get DTV? We're thinking about buying Sunday Ticket for the console, but I'm not going to spend $350 on a service sight unseen. I know that there's supposedly a preview for people who DO have DTV and are thinking of adding the service to their console, but what about those of us who can't get satellite? If it is possible, how do you do it? We downloaded the app, but it's asking us to subscribe. Help? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

disco Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 Just a note for anyone considering this. Originally they offered this to PS3 only customers. Buying through the PS3 is $339. Starting today you can now order Sunday Ticket-To-Go as a non-directv customer through DTV for $350: http://www.directv.com/DTVAPP/content/nflstonline/overview It's a bit of a scam. Based on the FAQs, you can can use your Sunday Ticket-To-Go login on your PS3 to watch. You can not, however, use your PS3 login on other devices. So in other words for $350 you can watch the games on your computer, ipad, iphone, ps3, etc. For $340 you can only watch on PS3. I'd imagine many people would prefer to spend the extra $10 for the additional devices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heitz Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 The stream is on - looks good (maybe not HD, but it looks crisp right now) and doesn't seem to be lagging or choppy. I had to pick up a PS3 this weekend to make it happen, but totally worth it. So nice to be able to watch in the comfort of my own living room! Plus Madden seems pretty cool... Let's Go Buffalo!!

Rico Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 Since I don't think my favorite HD streamer is going to be doing it this year, I'm in. Just turned in on, CBS pre-game doesn't look bad at all. OT but Suzy Kolber in the ESPN studio, good God! YUM, glad she's inside this year!

Peace Posted September 11, 2011 Author Share Posted September 11, 2011 Make sure you call and complain. It was not this bad using the dr online feed in the last two years. Never thought I'd be so annoyed to see three firefighters...that's one of the things I keep cycling to. Listening to the game on radio...struggling with vid and volume down.

ReturnoftheBuffaloBeast23 Posted September 11, 2011 Share Posted September 11, 2011 This is as bad as it gets. Im pretty sure its directTV fault, I have netflix, ran VuDu and hulu plus with no real problems like this. Its like watching bills as legos and the freezing was jus as bad till it just crapped out now no games work...Maybe its first week bugs, I sure hope so...

Peace Posted September 11, 2011 Author Share Posted September 11, 2011 Btw, having slightly better luck pausing it and letting it buffer for a while, then as it catches up, pausing again.
