MLB.TV is really sucking

[WeatherWonk]

I have been moving around from game to game today and throughout the spring and I am finding that virtually every game I go to is sputtering, freezing, audio cutting out, etc. I seem to recall that being a problem last spring, but it cleared up once the  reg season started.

Right now, my download speed is 95 mg/s, so I dont think that's the problem.

Anyone else having trouble?

I am in Boise, ID. Premium subscriber for several years. Just moved here this week. Looks like MLB is blacking out the Rockies-Brewers game for some reason. MLBs own look-up has me only blacked out for the Mariners ( a mere 500 miles and 8 hours away by car!). Is there something special about that Rockies-Brewers game?

Nobody actually wants to watch it?

Mine is working great up here in Seattle. 

The HD quality is amazing.

Went to the Premium support forum and mentioned the incorrect blackout. They fixed it immediately. Many instances of people being incorrectly blacked out.

But the stuttering video continues...............

Well, I read that Bandy is starting, so I thought I would tune in. He has a hit, a run scored, a throwing error, a PO at home and a great backhand stop of a fastball in the dirt, about six inches outside the plate. It saved the tying run from scoring, at least for the moment.

You may be the only person in the history of the world...without the last name Bandy...who turned on a game just to watch Jett Bandy play!

It doesn't work well on dial up.

95 mg is a pretty high dosage, make sure to consult your physician.

no problems with the radio feed on AT BAT app..........I prefer to listen to the games anyway -- don't have the time to sit and watch.

Use it on my phone all day, I've had no problems

Keep refreshing it a few times and it fixes mine.

fuck mlb.tv and their blackouts

reddit.com/r/mlbstreams has streams that are just as good. Full HD 60 FPS

yeah, the funny thing is that it plays perfectly on my phone and tablet. No bueno on the laptop.

I have now discovered that if I just let the feed go through it's problems, it resolves itself in about 5 minutes. Reloading wasnt doing anything.
