CAA FRIENDS- PLS HELP- FLO SPORTS

[MUHAWKS]

CAA friends I really need some help. I am not starting another Flo Sports tirade but I need help b/c clearly it is me- Rarely do I watch anything on a TV but instead I stream on a desktop computer that is high quality- It is the same computer that hosts my trading systems which during the week routinely has Bloomberg plus another 3 trading applications up at same time. On top of this I have 2-3 web based things I use up AND I have CNBC running via google chrome- I have 4 screens. I can and do watch ESPN plus, regular ESPN, ABC, amazon prime you name it never with any problems. Once in a while if I have 3-4 different games on I will get like a second pause on 1 game before it fixes itself. Yet today I tried to watch some of Bryant/Albay, URI/Brown and Maine Delaware, alone, not at same time via Flo, and except for the Delaware game which still paused and buffered, I could not get it to work for more than 10 seconds before it buffered and then froze. My long winded point is- IT CANNOT BE MY HARDWARE as everything else works fine. I was just watching The end of Penn State/USC at the same time as the Bivol/Beterbiev boxing match with no delays or buffering. Is there any fix? Is it just me? WTF can I do, I am so annoyed.

If other services are working fine, and your internet is working fine, the issue is FLO. If only one game on Flo isn’t working, it’s a stadium venue/broadcast problem

Flo sucks, it's not your computer. I have found that in full screen it buffers constantly for me, but it seems to work okay when not in full screen. Glad we are done with Flo after this year, feel sorry for the CAA fans that are stuck with it.

FRIENDS- PLS HELP FLO SPORTS

Flo Sports can't be helped.

Flo Sports is a digital pox upon the sports landscape.

Flo Sports is what happens when a conference tries to gain an exclusive streaming service by wishing upon a monkey's paw.

Flo Sports is the online equivalent of a shower hair clog.

Flo Sports is the real-life equivalent of your loved ones trying to recruit you into an obvious Ponzi scheme over Thanksgiving dinner.

Flo Sports is like being catfished by an actual catfish.


In short, the problem isn't you. The problem is the CAA's hubris and reliance on a streaming service that appears to be handled by a single network server still running Windows 98.

Yep, thx. Guess I will have to drive to both URI and UNH back to back weeks to fkin watch my team. what a joke.

[KPSUL]

I watched the Albany @ Bryant game until UNH @ Elon started. I had no buffering issues at all with either game. Nothing fancy about my set up: Xfinity internet - mid level "high" speed, one laptop hooked to my TV via HDMI.

[ncspiderfan]

Downloaded the Flo sports app on ROKU streaming service.
Usually, can watch one Flo game on TV and one on computer at same time with little buffering, if any.

Just info.

hahahahahahahahahahahahah too funny

MUHAWKS, did you pay for the service?

agree with what spider said, get yourself Roku of Firestick on your TV and download the flosports app.... no problems at all really all year. I have the cheapest computer ever and I watched Elon UNH on the computer and Delaware on the TV

I had the same problem with the Delaware/Maine game buffering constantly. Blamed it on my internet connection as we had power problems due to high winds although my signal indicated a strong signal. I established a hot spot connection on my phone and never buffered the rest of the game. Not sure what it means but my internet connection was crap with Flo as well.

strange-- between KPSUL/CARIB having no issues and the other information provided, seems inconsistent- I am no tech expert but that was enough for me to at least investigate.. I decided to change browsers to "edge" which is the default browser for my company for some reason and low and behold I am watching pomona pitzer/Redlands, and UT permian Basin vs. .central Washington and the quality is very good, no buffering, its like I am watching Oregon/Ohio State on NBC which I will go back to right now.. wow- cannot believe this.. thanks all! Hope it will eb same for Caa when I need it..

I checked and Edge is what I'm using with no problems

Ohhh - thought this thread was a hostage/ransom plea. Came to help.

Is the CAA still sponsoring Football?

Carry on…

I will second that opinion. What is almost worse is listening to the Blue Hens broadcast team via the Internet.

Yeah I'm not a big fan, but I have heard worse.

I did enjoy Monmouth's broadcast team last week.

CAA never sponsored football, CAA Football is a completely separate conference. ;) Carry on

[FUBeAR]

Is it really though?

Next you’ll be tellin’ FUBeAR that Elon is a real town and not just an unincorporated area outside of Burlington and the Football Team is no longer the Fightin’ Christians.

I watch FloSports on my Apple TV or iPhone and seemingly have no issues with streams unless I'm watching Hampton games.

For A&T this is the best their games have looked, ever. That could also because we've contracted out our broadcast productions to companies instead of doing things in-house.

[Sitting Bull]

W&M just signed a broadcast agreement with MASN for a large number of basketball games providing local media coverage from NJ down to NC. This is for basketball but thought it was still worth noting on here as I understand, this would not have been possible if the CAA was linked with ESPN.

I think one of the reasons the CAA has the link with FLO is due to similar opportunities this independence provides primarily its basketball members. SBU, Hofstra. Drexel among others negotiate similar local coverage.

Again, I don’t have a strong opinion on FLO but I think the upside to the link is never discussed or considered. In addition to these local media deals which the members can pursue (would not be possible under ESPN as I understand) - it also does not mean we have ESPN dictating schedules (tournaments, mid week football games, etc).

I’m curious as to whether MASN couldn’t also be an option to pursue on the CAA football side.
