Goons, what are my options for getting NFL games without cable/dish? I've seen the Madden 25 $99 anniversary edition that comes with Sunday Ticket, but I'd like to be able to stream from my PS3, which that package doesn't seem to be able to do. I don't care about anything other than Red Zone. I want Red Zone.

Where is the $300 package? Can't find it anywhere.
|
# ¿ Aug 5, 2013 18:44 |

Yeah. I actually just want Red Zone, if that has it I am all game for just hooking up a computer or tablet to my TV.

Sometimes you might have good luck asking for the Customer Retention department, not sure how that works as a non-customer. I always play the "Hey, Comcast is offering me THIS" route on them, at least with Verizon. Same thing should work vice versa with Comcast, though. Sucks you have to go through such extremes to just get internet access.

I have the same problem where I switch between speakers, headphones, and my TV as an HDMI/Audio source all the time. I just right click the speaker icon => set as default, but I'd love something I could just toggle.

I'm not sure, but Plex + Chromecast is the greatest goddamn thing ever.

My setup is Roku + Plex, PS3, and HD antenna if needed. I never use the HD antenna though.

I actually pay for GameCenter (which is $20 a month) and then use AdFreeTime to get around the local blackouts ($3 a month.) Bonus effect of being able to watch every hockey game broadcast, which is great, since even if I'm working or whatever I still put it on as background noise.

What kind of specs are on your Plex server? I'm using the one built into FreeNas and it is kind of poopy, freezing during transcoding and so on. The FreeNas box is pretty solid too. Quad core 2.6 ghz, 8GB of RAM, SSD hard drive, etc.

Echoing what other goons have said, if you can go buy an antenna and try it first, that is your best bet. That being said, I live in small borough and can't get poo poo on any antenna I've tried. When it does work, it is nothing but glitchy sounds and digitally distorted picture, which blows.

Is there any way to do continuous play from the Plex android app or the netflix android app to Chromecast?
|
# ¿ Jun 11, 2014 16:59 |

Gravy, I'm glad that will be possible. Hopefully Plex follows suite. My favorite thing right now is to shuffle my Plex library from my computer, but I wish the app had that as well.

I love my chromecasts, I have two. I use Plex to stream local media which works really well, and then Netflix/HBOGo for everything else. For the price it is great, and pretty Girlfriend/Parent friendly as well.

In addition to the other sweet updates for the Chromecast at Google IO today, NFL UK confirmed that GameCenter will support Chromecast this year.

I'm hoping. Last year, the Madden deal was great value, even if I had to use a work around service. All I care about is red zone

I've been using NFL Game Pass (live in the US) for preseason with Adfreetime as my DNS servers and it has been great, especially with Chromecast.

Use Hola unblocker to get to NFL.com from the netherlands/afghanistan or some other place. Buy subscription, use REP15 as the promo code (rich eisen's podcast) and then you should be good. I use Adfreetime as my DNS anyway so I don't need to be connected to hola/vpn during games. All I really want is HD redzone so,

# ¿ Aug 28, 2014 17:57 |

Yeah if you sign up for Game Pass from the Netherlands/Overseas you can get the package on your account. The free thing last year was awesome but this is not that. It is still about $120 USD all things considered. Like I said, I just want redzone.

I have to use the regular 720 setting for Chromecast, even on a wired device tab-casting. Apparently the Game Pass android app was going to have Chromecast support, but I haven't seen it. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2396056 is where I had to sideload the APK from

Is the Nexus player a Fire TV competitor? I think the only thing I really "Need" in an android top box at this point is gigabit ethernet.

Three Olives posted:That is not quite what they said, I suspect people will be disappointed to find out that it was what had been rumored for a long time and just a decoupling from cable TV service not cable TV providers. So basically Time Warner/Comcast/UVerse/FiOS will be happy to add it on to your internet service instead of a TV package but you are poo poo out of luck if you don't get your internet from a company that doesn't also want to sell you TV. This post is incorrect

SIR FAT JONY IVES posted:I don't have cable. I only have internet, Hulu, Netflix, and Amazon Prime. I use Bing Rewards to get my Hulu monthly subs. I also have an antenna and a DVR, so I can pretty much watch whatever I want. I have pretty much everything I need, since I don't watch sports. That setup does pretty well, since I can get everything I want. Also rocking a similar setup, with a Plex server thrown in for good measure. I also subscribe to NHL Gamecenter Live and NFL Gamepass, since those are the only two sports I care about anyway.

There are ways to get Gamepass with a DNS redirect and I did that last year, worked great. Found some other shady rear end services this year but goddamn NFL just let me give you my money. The NHL makes it so easy, not sure why the NFL can't. What year was it where they gave the free Gamepass sub out with Madden? Because that was hella value.
