2007 NFL Sunday Ticket information

  • Thread starter Thread starter magnet
  • Start date Start date
No Skins-Dolphins in HD!!!...no excuse...game was in HD and one channel available.

Bell customer service is a joke...does anybody there have a clue!

They have no idea what so ever about their product.This isn't cheap!

If they try to get me to do the transponder signal and check switch again I'm going to lose it.
 
Nope, no TampaBay/Carolina hd coverage for some reason, I do notice it in the guide on the mirrored foxeasthd channel but its showing bull riding instead
 
I believe that there have been countless posts saying EXACTLY this since the start of the Sunday Ticket.

Why on earth should Customers who have paid for the service now have to do a "Simple restart" as you call it, or waste time calling into Express Vu to have a CSR fix the problem.?

This is not something new, Express Vu Screwed up, it should be Express Vu, that access the database and do an automatic "simple restart" on behalf of ALL the Customers who have PAID for this service.

Again the level of Customer Service just stinks.....
 
Rogers I think the First two months are only $20 That would drop it down to $100
Shaw is $100.
 
It is a must for any NFL nut,truly a great addition for NFL Sunday...if it works right.Problem has been glitches with it not working all together or not working properly have been way to frequent.The first two years I was credited for the problems and looks to be free this year with Sunday Ticket subscription.Does that mean the glitches continue?:(

Direct TV now has a Superfan Interactive channel simular to the ExpressVu NHL Centre Ice Multi-Vu which has six different games on one screen.Any info on this channel being available on ExpressVu?
 
BEV NFL Football rating this week: 2/10 :o

1) They don't show the 4PM Tampa Bay Buccaneers @ Carolina Panthers
FOX game in HD with no valid reason whatsoever as, unlike last week, there was
plenty of space this week --> only 5 HD games airing at the same time.
Even though I don't like it, I can understand not airing all HD games in weeks like last week when there was 8 HD games at once. Not airing a game when there were only 5 is INEXCUSABLE.

2) For the first week since the beginning of the season, BEV stupidly decided to simsub the CTV feeds over the american feeds of channels 817 & 822 with severe consequences: The Bill vs. Jets game was in 2.0 audio and sounded like you were listening through an empty metal soup can :mad: Also, when the Bill vs. Jets game was over, instead of switching channel 817 to it's "regular" programming so we could watch the beggining of the Colts vs. Broncos game, they instead switched over to the CTV simsub end of the Dolphins vs. Raiders game which was allready playing on channels 800, 806 & 822... as if we need a 4th channel to show us the exact same CTV simsub feed.

BEV you stink (I would use a much stronger word but i've allready been warned for language enough on this site). How many people do you think did not give a flying fart about the Dolphins vs. Raiders game but got super angry about missing the beggining of the Colts vs. Broncos game (two of the most popular teams in the NFL).
Hello! Think McFly think! Stupid BEV. I'm not even going to mention the picture quality difference as there was nothing new there --> inferior (yet better then Global last year but still inferior).

Is THIS (see below) what I pay BEV 200$/year for? So they can give me only 4 HD games (2 @1PM and 2 @ 4PM mind you) not available on their other channels and leave a 5th one unaired? Are you freakin kidding me? :o

1. Chicago Bears @ Detroit Lions HD 1PM (FOX) 467
2. Green Bay Packers @ Minnesota Vikings HD 1PM (FOX) 466
3. Kansas City Chiefs @ San Diego Chargers HD 4PM (CBS) 468
4. Pittsburgh Steelers @ Arizona Cardinals HD 4PM (CBS) 465

P.S. (Nothing to do with BEV) Nice Job FOX (sarcasm)! Some of us were watching that Cowboys vs. Rams game before you decided we would rather watch the Packers vs. Vikings game. Don't they realize that many of us have the NFL Sunday ticket and can simply turn to that channel if we wanted to (or have it on the other tuner like I did). Imagine my surprise when I swap tuners to catch up to the other game simply to find the same game playing on both tuners (yet different channels) and then I rewind and see this FOX twit saying "hey, we know you folks like competitive games so we are switching you over to the other game now" ?!?!?! WTF?
 
So basically since I am a Bell subscriber I will have to pay an extra $89 for Sunday Ticket.
 
so theres an ecm coming soon? hopefully it can shut out the pirates....but when there free tv goes down dont they just manually enter bev keys until the hackers release a new file to get their autoroll working? they would still be getting free tv wont they?
 
I've been a subscriber to NFL ST for 3 years going on 4 and my channel is red as well and says I must "call to order".... I'm sure it's a glitch as BEV auto-renews NFL ST... not auto-cancels...
Typically, the guide info and games for NFL ST don't show up until the day before the games and sometimes even changes at 1pm on the Sunday itself.

In any case, Agent Express V, care to comment?

P.S. This information is posted so we Canadian viewers can hold BEV responsible for what they air or do not air in HD this year on NFL ST. Once the guide data for the Canadian BEV NFL ST is up, I will post a similar schedule with "our channels" and we can then dare to compare...
 
Yep. You pay more but at least you get 100+ HD games on Sunday Ticket.

Still wishing that Bell has a super sports package. If I didn't have HD, I would get it on Star Choice along with Center Ice.

But there is only one way to watch football and that is in HD, so I have to go with Bell because of that.
 
sunday ticket was a mess, the ppv bug to begin the day then most if not all hd games had issues. The Cleveland Pittsburgh game was 15min late to show up and then another 15min for the audio to join. Its useless to complain, the SRs have no idea...
 
btw- the 4PM hd games on cbse and cbsw were delayed because they were showing the end of the cleveland/cincinnati game in Glorious SD
 
There is ONLY 1 game not in HD for Week 1:

Tennesse Titans @ Jacksonville Jaguars (1pm CBS)

BEV --> You will need 8 X NFL Sunday Ticket HD Channels available @ 1PM for week 1 (there are 8 HD games @ 1pm and 4 more @ 4pm).

P.S. DirecTV's website now says "OVER 180 games in HD this season"

http://www.directv.com/DTVAPP/global...assetId=900045

For Week 2, there will be 3 games not in HD:

Cincinnati Bengals @ Cleveland Browns (1pm CBS)
Houston Texans @ Carolina Panthers (1pm CBS)
???? @ ???? (?pm FOX)

FOX has 7 games Week 2 so one of them will be in SD...
 
Does anybody have any of the NFL ST HD channels for week 2? All mine are showing up as lost signal. I'm glad CTV is showing my Steelers or I would be super duper pissed.
 
You have NO idea what you're missing then. I would strongly recommend getting HD asap (get one of those 36 equal payments no interest deals at Future Shop it you have to...that's what I did...). It might even take the sting out of seing your favourite team lose ;) :D

P.S. The Vikings have one hell of a defense and a good running back but they will need their new inexperienced QB to step up if they want to go anywhere this year... if not, they can always draft one early in the Draft next year.
 
Week 1(Sunday September 9th) NFL Sunday Ticket

11/12 games are being broadcasted in HD Week 1. Only 10 were shown in HD on BEV. The Miami Dolphins @ Washington Redskins game was available in HD but only shown in SD on BEV (except for the end of the game which was shown in HD on channel 468 once the Kansas City Chiefs @ Houston Texans game was over).

1PM Games
Denver Broncos @ Buffalo Bills HD 1PM (CBS) 822

Pittsburgh Steelers @ Cleveland Browns HD 1PM (CBS) 466
Black screen (no audio or video) for the first 15 min then 15 more min for audio to kick in :o


Kansas City Chiefs @ Houston Texans HD 1PM (CBS) 468
For the first 30 minutes had the audio of the Pittsburgh Steelers @ Cleveland Browns game :o

New Engalnd Patriots @ New York Jets HD 1PM (CBS) 817
As usual, very difficult to watch live sporting event on this channel (817) as the picture freezes and cuts every 10 - 15 seconds... this has been going on for a few years now and still not fixed :o


Philadelphia Eagles @ Green Bay Packers HD 1PM (FOX) 818/823

Atlanta Falcons @ Minnesota Vikings HD 1PM (FOX) 465

Carolina Panthers @ St-Louis Rams HD 1PM (FOX) 467 For the first 10 min, this channel was showing the Philadelphia Eagles @ Green Bay Packers game

4PM Games
Chicago Bears @ San Diego Chargers HD 4PM (FOX) 465/818
Detroit Lions @ Oakland Raiders HD 4PM (FOX) 466
Tampa Bay Buccaneers @ Seattle Seahawks HD 4PM (FOX) 823/851

Week 1 SD Games
1PM Tennesse Titans @ Jacksonville Jaguars (CBS) 453 SD ONLY
1PM Miami Dolphins @ Washington Redskins (CBS) 455 SD ONLY (ON BEV)

On a positive note: There were NO simsubs on BEV this weekend.

Overall, considering the PPV purchase issue blunder and the technical snafus I would give BEV a rating of 3/10 for this weekend... to be fair, many of the technical issues generated from the U.S. broadcasts/providers themselves...
 
Week#____Number of HD games shown on BEV / Number of available HD games + number of national HD games

Week 01 = 10/11 + 4 national games
Week 02 = 11/11 + 2 national games
Week 03 = 10/12 + 2 national games
Week 04 = 09/10 + 2 national games
Week 05 = 10/10 + 2 national games
Week 06 = 10/10 + 2 national games
Week 07 = 11/11 + 2 national games
Week 08 = 10/11 + 1 national game
Week 09 = 11/11 + 2 national games
Week 10 = 11/11 + 2 national games

So far this season (10 weeks), only 15 games have not been broadcasted in HD. An additional 5 games were broadcasted in HD but not on BEV for a grand total of 20 SD games in 10 weeks on BEV. Out of 144 total games played so far = 86.1% were in HD on BEV vs. 89.5% available in HD.

112 games remaining (7 weeks) for the 2007 season.
