lag∞n, Sunday, 9 November 2014 20:40 (eleven years ago)

why is life so hard

lag∞n, Sunday, 9 November 2014 20:40 (eleven years ago)

u can def stream from device using airplay or chromecast depending on yr set up but itd be cool if one of these devices had an app

lag∞n, Sunday, 9 November 2014 20:45 (eleven years ago)

might sign up for a month of ballstreams and just see whats up

Haven't been able to convince my wife to let me get league pass yet ever. Understand the annoyances with the blackouts. Which honestly is a major reason I haven't pushed the issue. There should be no blackouts that's the lamest thing why do these providers insist on screwing the consumer idgi

I GET it when it's TNT and ABC/ESPN (tho the NBA should push harder to lift these blackouts as well, given the leverage they obviously have as evidenced by the massive new TV deal), but what i don't get is why i can't watch an NBATV game on my computer or phone. it's the league's own network, and i am trying to watch it on their own website. there is no conflict there

yeah thats some serious bullshit, tho might have something to do with cable carriage fees

lag∞n, Sunday, 9 November 2014 21:01 (eleven years ago)

like theres a third party in there which is the cable companies

lag∞n, Sunday, 9 November 2014 21:01 (eleven years ago)

League Pass tv streaming works about as well as hulu so it isn't worth it unless you watch on your phone often.

looks like roku might actually be the best tv device to use ballstreams with http://www5.ballstreams.com/devices#roku

Ding ding ding

The intersection of the various contracts between leagues, networks, and cable/sat cos is a real knotty thing

I know waaaay more about this than I should

Just got my invite but I used it w/ my OKC burner email address hope it's not a problem

, Monday, 10 November 2014 01:49 (eleven years ago)

ive got it airplaying to the apple tv now and its def not super sharp on the big screen but it looks good on the lappy

lag∞n, Monday, 10 November 2014 01:50 (eleven years ago)

idk it look okay on the big screen id say, tho airplay totally drops frames

lag∞n, Monday, 10 November 2014 01:51 (eleven years ago)

does it work on yr iphone? i get better quality airstreaming from my iphone to appletv than i do w/ my laptop.

Smarf (Clay), Monday, 10 November 2014 01:51 (eleven years ago)

Why are they asking for my fav team I'm scared of putting the Sixers in case they only let me watch Sixers games I'm gonna put down the dubs

, Monday, 10 November 2014 01:52 (eleven years ago)

but my laptop is ancient and i'm using a hacky workaround to airstream so that is probably more the issue xp

Smarf (Clay), Monday, 10 November 2014 01:52 (eleven years ago)

I have a HTPC I'm gonna stream it on that https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/9627011/photos/davecool.gif

Lotta gear for dudes who can't afford cable

Thing is once you sign up for cable you literally cannot cancel unless u leave the country or die and then they just bill your estate

, Monday, 10 November 2014 01:58 (eleven years ago)

That's the kids problem

z-time champion (agent hibachi), Monday, 10 November 2014 01:58 (eleven years ago)

lag∞n, Monday, 10 November 2014 01:59 (eleven years ago)

z-time champion (agent hibachi), Monday, 10 November 2014 02:00 (eleven years ago)

Also all the good cable shows are on premium cable channels not basic also you can just torrent them

ya looks p good, hav not tried the airplay yet tho

Goons thought experiment re MVP is interesting to me I think there's lots of time for bron to most likely reclaim the throne but let's just say he doesn't and durant misses too much time

So probably the brow, Steph curry, maybe Blake?

Unless brow goes totally thermonuclear either Steph or Blake is gonna be on the first or second team in the west so one of them probably gets it

I'd bet Steph

z-time champion (agent hibachi), Monday, 10 November 2014 02:06 (eleven years ago)

I'm ballstreaming right now feels good man

, Monday, 10 November 2014 02:07 (eleven years ago)

Is it better than the old qthe site or whatever we used to use

z-time champion (agent hibachi), Monday, 10 November 2014 02:09 (eleven years ago)

It's for sure better than atdhe

, Monday, 10 November 2014 02:11 (eleven years ago)

Weird to me that I will probably be on my deathbed and all of sudden I will bolt upright and croak 'atdhe'

, Monday, 10 November 2014 02:11 (eleven years ago)

okay ive got it airplaying to the appletv from my iphone now and its not dropping frames like it was from the lappy but im getting a some of aliasing thats p noticeable on the court boundary lines, theyre def using a diff stream for the phone cause the in browser one is flash, id say the appletv ballstream experience is doable but not quite perfect, it says on their site if u jailbreak ur appletv u can install XBMC and then run it natively but i dont really care to fuck w that, getting a roku might be the way to go if u want the perfect ballstream tv set up (still unclear to me if their app works on the chromecast)
