RPI & BU (Friday 12/4) & UNH (Saturday 12/5)

Re: RPI & BU (Friday 12/4) & UNH (Saturday 12/5)

I thought the BU PPV feed was pretty good....until I watched a bit of RPI-Sacred Heart. Wow! Because BU uses the scoreboard feed, you end up watching all the promos resulting in frequently missed faceoffs. The $10/month fee is for all BU sports on Terrier TV, including women's hockey (terrible quality) and men's and women's hoops.

So we should expect a bunch of flashing on the screen with text of "MAKE NOISE"? :D

Thankfully they don't do that, they do; however, avoid showing any replays of the away team's goals/big plays, so you better not look away from the screen :p

Not surprising. At SCSU, the same thing happened.

http://www.uscho.com/tv/ if you click on the FCS next to the game listing I think it lists the DirTV channels.

According to my guide in the capital region it will be on TWC 670 which is FSATL.

For the record on DIRECTV 608 is FCS Atlantic, 623 is FCS Central and 626 is FCS Pacific. And their contract with FCS is such that they only have broadcast rights to live games. My guess is that the RPI vs UNH is not listed on 608 because something in the system doesn't think it is a live game.

If you are DIRECTV customer you could try contacting them to get it sorted out, but my guess is that a phone call from either of the schools atheletic departments to FCS would have a better chance of getting it resolved before Sat. Just not sure how to tip them off to the issue.

Certainly a scam / illegal / malware driven "service". Even if you ran it on a sandbox computer, it won't have any non-televised game, and further, chances are slim that it would have any college hockey. There are many sites where it's possible to find illegal streams of popular sporting events. Issue is, interest is quite low for regular season College Hockey, and legals risks are an issue for US-based streams (most illegal streaming sites use foregin top-level domains, foreign servers, and often foreign TV sources). You won't find a "regular" originator of US-based streams as they get DMCA'd often. Further, most illegal streams seek to monetize their 'effort' by creating ad-ridden pages (or toolbars like this). Odds are that whoever is behind this toolbar simply looks for free streams and aggregates them. If you do go looking for illegal streaming sites, don't download or install anything, and know that they're not being provided altruistically. But like I said before, you'll almost certainly be unable to find the BU game.

In the past, I've illegally streamed RPI TV (during the 09-10 season), Time Warner, and other school's B2/PPV broadcasts for friends (and for a time, USCHO!); all it takes it someone with a capture card or screencapture software, a free/add supported video streaming site, a decent encoding computer, and an internet connection with decent upload speeds.



Side note: on that site, if you replace the text after 'seed=' part of the URL, you can make it stream anything!

Thanks. It is listed on ch. 608 DirecTV. Unfortunately for me, I don't have that package..... then again, I'll be at the TUC, hopefully watching Allen York in goal for Springfield.

Thank you, that's what I thought.
Does anyone know how to get the single game on the BU site?

Tough Sledding for Yorkies so far -- McEllhinney has been on fire for Springfield...though Yorkie made good on a rare start the other night, beating Norfolk 4-1.

Some thoughts from Coach Appert on the series:

not really. Since being back w/Springfield he has started 3 of the 7 games. BTW, Yorkie lost the shutout to Norfolk by giving up a SHG in the 3rd.
 
Re: RPI & BU (Friday 12/4) & UNH (Saturday 12/5)

I had trouble editing my post. I wanted to go back and put a ? mark but had a problem and had to change a diaper (really). He may be healthy because he was not mentioned in injury report that our great coach gave to Ed.
