I have DirecTV and was amazed when at 6:30 I put it on 754-1 and saw the CSN Houston feed on League Pass. Got to enjoy the first half in full HD and loved every second of it. I guess it must have been a mistake by DirecTV because at halftime 754-1 went dark and the Detroit feed was blacked out. I heard on the radio this morning that Matt Jackson said that supposedly CSN was close to a deal with a provider, I'm wondering if it was DirecTV based on my experience last night. After watching one half in HD and the other half with choppy internet stream I will be calling DirecTV this afternoon and giving a cancellation threat.
NBA League Pass is a free preview on Directv until Sunday I believe. After that, you'll have to pay $180 for the season package if you want to follow the Rockets.
What a miserable night last night. Following the game score on an ESPN app instead of watching it in HD. Golly gee, I guess I'll just go to I want CSN Houston dot com and sign the petition derp derp derp..
Not that this will make anything better, but I drove by a comcast van on the freeway this morning and flipped him the bird as I drove by him. It made me giggle since I was watching the game via **** stream
I have Uverse and looked last night to see if the channel was available. There are a couple other CSN channels for other cities, but no Houston. I also noticed that those other channels do not allow recording. Even IF this crap gets ironed out, I'm afraid there will be a channel restriction where we cant record the games.
Just called AT&T Still no deal but they were able to reduce my bill by $35 and they gave me the NBA League Pass for free as well. I had to commit to one year for the lower price but the cancellation fee is only $180, and it reduced by $15 every month you have it. So if in a month they still dont have CSN the fee to cancel is $165. I'm guessing they get something done by Monday, especially with such a good game yesterday. People are probably calling a lot today so I called to see what I could get for free before they strike a deal and get the channel.
I met up with some friends at BWW in clear lake last night excited to watch the game. 6:40 rolled around and there was no rockets anywhere so I asked the manager to put it on CSN and they did NOT have it. So I called every other bar in clear lake to see if they were showing the rockets game and not 1 had it available. So we ultimately went to my buddies house who has comcast.... I'm guessing that a very few amount of Houstonians got to witness a great performance last night ....shame
This link worked for me I have Uverse so the way I watched this games was through the site below on my computer. I hope they get a deal soon because I want to watch it on my TV in HD
I've been blocked from posting on Comcast Sportsnet Houston's Facebook page. It's so negative there, it's awesome. I like that they're trying to spin it, and that response means that they're obviously feeling the pressure. Let them hear you! http://www.facebook.com/csnhouston
Yea I know it's a free preview, just noting that Directv actually had a CSN Houston feed that I could watch from my house in Houston for a half until they cut it off. I was guessing that meant there was a chance they were close to a deal.
They were close to a deal so allowed access to only one person who has directv to watch for 1 half. Hmmmm.
You will be able to record. Thats what they put up when you are subscribed to the channel. Same thing on movie channels.
