| MLB has a ton of issues in their streaming. - If you're watching a game on say a 50 minute delay, the live CDN gets shut off about 10 minutes after the broadcast ends and you actually can't finish the stream for 40 minutes while they move it over to the VOD CDN. So if I have a meeting or whatever in the 3rd, it'll shut off in the 7th. I confirmed this bug with a friend I know there. - Most of the players can't remember where you were in stream across crashes and definitely not across machines. - Player constantly resets settings and switch to showing you the scores. - Not technical but the audio recaps ALWAYS use the broadcasters from the winning team. So no need to watch a 7 minute recap of the game, first word uttered by the broadcasters tell you who won. - Player won't re-upgrade the stream quality after it downgrades it. - Player can't recover from a stopped stream. - Player is in flash still on desktop. Which is blocked by my work firewall. - Only their phone support does anything. - They don't trim out rain delays, so you can sit there for 5 hours on a VOD during a rain delay. You "could" skip to the next inning but you have to turn on spoilers if it happens mid inning (which happens often). - You can jump to the top and bottom of most innings. Playstation and desktop apps often lose their minds and restart. - You can't skip past pitching changes even though they're a standard 2 minutes. - Watching the tv broadcast but changing to a radio audio crashes the ps4 app. - Fire TV app, when you select "From Beginning" on a stream you're starting late always jumps live. If you chose live, you can't rewind at all. - If network is down the app loads that there are no games on the calendar and leaves it cached as empty. You have to restart the app to fix it. - They show very little of the color commentary from the field, only booth stuff. - Watching a vod you have to fast forward 12-18 minutes to find the beginning of the game. - Inning start markers often are often placed as far as 2-3 batters in. I've seen 2 outs in before. - The web version has tons of issues, I mostly use the ps4 app as it's more stable. - The mobile apps require you to have full GPS turned on, which is great for battery life when you're already streaming. - You cannot time shift radio broadcasts of games. You can't pause them either. - If a radio broadcast buffers to much it just stops playing and you have to use the app to restart it. - Getting to a broadcast on mobile requires jumping through a bunch of hoops all trying to show you the score. - You can't time shift on mobile. - I CANNOT STREAM THE AUDIO OF THE GAME AT THE STADIUM BECAUSE IT'S BLACKED OUT. NOR CAN I WATCH THE GAME I AM SITTING AT FOR THE SAME REASON. I did sit at the 2nd to last mariners game while watching the Cardinals game and separately the Giants game on my laptop and phone. Which was fun. There are more but I forget. |
