Worked fine for me yesterday, and I am on a Mac OS X based machine. Maybe there’s something wrong with Om’s machine.

It works on my Mac, but not my Nokia WiFi device.  All I want is audio. An .mp3 stream would be fine.  Why does MLB insist on making everything so complex that it does not work?

I’ve had problems running Gameday Audio at work. During the last couple years it has worked fine, but the move the Flash seems to not agree with the firewall.

My only problem was the Gameday audio Dodger feed for Dodgers-Padres shut down in the ninth inning. I was able to switch to the Padres feed with no problems, other than the Pads announcing team.

I do dislike the new player. The old Windows media player feed showed the line score and worked fine. There was no need to change it.

Of more concern right now is that none of yesterday’s archived audio feeds (at least the ones in English) seem to be available yet. They all say available soon (as do most of the video feeds). Last year it only took about a half hour or so after the game to get them posted.

I don’t agree (grammatically) with your usage of “waxed happily”

But appreciate the content.

My work computer doesn’t do well with the Flash stuff on Gameday Audio. The audio comes through fine, but the displays (box score, summary, the nifty graphic of the two teams you’re listening to when you switch games) update very slowly or not at all.

Of course, three years ago it was a little real player box with no displays at all. So it seems kind of silly to complain.

I take it back, I’m going to complain. That little graphic with the team logos also lets you switch which feed you’re listening to (that is, the home guys or the away guys). When you switch over to the Sox/Rays broadcast, but the little graphic still has the Royals and White Sox up, so you’re stuck listening to the Red Sox announcers? That sucks.

I dunno about MLB’s stuff, but CBS’s March Madness On Demand worked like a dream for me. MLB should just use that technology, maybe. If that’s the technology they are using, well, then I guess it would work for me.

I run a Linux system (Ubuntu 8.04) which is easily the best OS I’ve ever used.  However, the Nexdef plugin does not work, at all, in any way, on any version of Linux. 

I also have Windows Vista on this machine because it came pre-installed, so I figured I’d keep it there in case Ubuntu acted up.  I switched over to Windows, installed Flash 10 and the Nexdef plugin, and the HD feed is spectacular….when it’s actually playing.

Incredibly choppy.  I had to reduce the quality to stop the lag.  They better get it together soon.  I will raise hell.

is there anyone in the UK who’s tried it this season?

I signed up in 06, and the quality was pretty dreadful - I had fast, reliable broadband, and the picture would break up and stop causing me to have to start again game again or try and guess on the progress bar where I was up to to try and start watching again.

The other thing I found was that if I wanted to watch a game the next day, I had no way of starting the game without seeing the score - with the time difference, the whole point of me signing up is to watch Angel games ‘as live’. (I also noticed that NCAA.com had no mechanism of selecting a March Madness game without seeing the score of the game!)

I’m tempted to sign up for mlb.tv this season, but fear it might be money-down-the-drain again….
