I believe it won't be available to download until September 4th.How do you download the ps3 app? I don't see it under TV/Video services.
Plus he could get some CBS games when the Ravens are playing at 4 or on national.6. 4 national games (3 NBC and one on ESPN) and 2 late CBS games early in the year. Flex games that are available don't look appealing, so that's likely it.
I think the Pats-Titans game is going to be on in the DC area, I was watching ND-Navy and in the Week 1the promo itwas listed as the first game; the Ravens open MNF.Plus he could get some CBS games when the Ravens are playing at 4 or on national.
Week 1, CBS has Nantz/Simms doing the Pats/Titans game, so I assume you'll get that in DC.

I've got a new, but middle-of-the-road laptop that I'll be using to stream the video to the television, using HDMI-out.So I took the plunge and bought the online version. I ran a cat 5 cable to my basement home theater and bought the desktop at the link below to network in. MLB.tv looks great on the setup...we'll see if directv can do an okay job of delivering a usable stream. Now to mess with Plex and XBMC.

Ah! Good call. The adapter I bought before didn't have an antenna, so I'll give one of these a try. I ended up buying this one from Micro Center, since I'll be picking up the RAM from there tonight.Corsi, I bought something like this a couple years ago and it really helped boost my WiFi signal. I haven't used it in a year and a half since I moved, but it worked pretty well.
It doesn't work. Two people can't be logged in at the same time. It's literally impossible to watch on two devices at once. I've used Sunday Ticket to go the last 3 seasons and I can tell you it simply doesn't do what you guys want.I'm interested in this as well. I share an MLB.TV account with a friend in New York and it works fine for each of us. I'd be be looking to share the NFLST account with a friend in DC. I guess we really won't know until Week 1.
Thanks for clearing that up. Looks like I'll be flying solo.It doesn't work. Two people can't be logged in at the same time. It's literally impossible to watch on two devices at once. I've used Sunday Ticket to go the last 3 seasons and I can tell you it simply doesn't do what you guys want.
Hit or miss, to be honest. What I found was that the first week or two it wasn't great, but then over time it got better (people lost interest maybe). I watched on MBP and my iPhone all the time. Heck, I used to plug my iphone into my car stereo and listen to games that way. Worked well enough.Thanks for clearing that up. Looks like I'll be flying solo.
What's your experience with the streaming quality? Lots of complaints on the PS3 side of things, but I haven't heard much about the online-only product.
Working a job where I might have to miss a few Pats games live, I'm definitely considering signing up for this. Does anyone know how soon you can watch the replay after the game is finished, and if the app will spoil the scores prior to watching? Thanks in advance.Another option is NFL Game Rewind, a day after online streaming service. There are restrictions, like not being able to start watching any video when a game is on live, but it's an inexpensive option ($35-$70 depending on the level you choose) for people who want watch and it has a couple of nice features like coach's video for some plays, watch multiple games at once and the ability to watch any game played this season. It's more of a suppliment than a solution, but I found it useful when watching games were not always an option like when my kids had soccer games or my wife dragged me to the in-laws.
And that killed it for me. Glad you found this out before I dropped 250 bucks on the PS3 optionReally annoyed to find out that the PS3 option is JUST PS3. Cannot watch on a laptop, even if it's not at the same time. God I hate DirecTV. The picture quality better be decent, but I have a feeling it won't be.
It depends on the day of the week the game is played. Sunday games are available Monday morning, Monday and Thursday games are available 2 hours after the games are over(or something like that). The main concern is the NFL doesn't want to y to able to start watching during any possible live game. I can't remember if the app or web page gives any scores.Working a job where I might have to miss a few Pats games live, I'm definitely considering signing up for this.

Does paying for the PC service at $250 give you access via iPad/iPhone? Or maybe that is the feature PS3 owners are paying more for (i.e. maybe they just don't classify the PS3 as a 'mobile' device any longer)?People are saying on here that they're able to pay $250 for the online-only version and then log into the PS3 version with their DirecTV login.
Haven't tried it myself, but I will tonight. Seems bizarre that they'd leave a loophole like this open, but who knows?

http://www.directv.com/DTVAPP/content/nflstonline/overviewEven if you happen to live an area where you can’t get DIRECTV service, you’re still in luck. You can get NFL SUNDAY TICKET for your computer, tablet, and phone. That means you can watch every out-of-market game LIVE every Sunday anywhere you have an Internet connection—in your home, in your favorite café, anywhere.
Adjust the picture quality, I think it looks pretty good on the screen once you move it up to the highest quality.The streaming quality of the Red Zone Channel (the only channel/game currently streaming on there) leaves a bit to be desired in full screen though. Hopefully the quality is a bit better for the games themselves.
So what's the incentive for the PS3 service? Just $50 extra to watch it via PS3?For the $250 service:

that link is causing a friend of mine heartburn. He's worried this whole thing is a scam (eg identity theft scam) because there are no links at the top of that page back to the regular DirecTV sites nor are there phone number links. You also can't navigate to it from the DirecTV home page or the NFL Sunday Ticket homepage.For the $250 service:

He called DirecTV and the sales rep had no idea what he was talking about and said there was no online streaming option to non-DTV subs. He's also suspicious because no major media outlets have picked up on this story, nor have any mainstream tech blogs. You would think this would be a big story, right?
I figure DTV just isn't openly promoting this so they don't freak out the cable companies who hate the NFL for the exclusive rights structure. But I can't say his concerns are totally unfounded.
So you guys have purchased this and logged in? This seems so strangely handled.

I'm thinking of taking the plunge too - guessing they are not actually going to check if the dish obstruction ruse (for me) is really true?Update: I called the number on that page and got a sale rep who confirmed the online-only package and said it's legit. He asked me about subscribing to full DirecTV and I told him I had a building blocking my sight line for the dish and he said 'then this option is open to you'.
My paranoid friend is taking the plunge. Ha
So I'm in the Bay Area, I may not get the Patriots game if the Raiders are blacked out? Anyone know how often this happened last year or if there is a place to find out?NFL SUNDAY TICKET has to enforce blackout rules as required by the NFL. These rules include applying blackouts to those areas where the local team hasn't sold sufficient tickets within a certain time.
I would assume this means that you (everyone) wouldn't get the Tampa game this weekend, for example, since it's going to be blacked out locally in Tampa.So I'm in the Bay Area, I may not get the Patriots game if the Raiders are blacked out? Anyone know how often this happened last year or if there is a place to find out?
I believe they black out by billing addy.The only games that are blacked out are the ones on locally (or blacked out locally) to your IP.
If the Tampa game is blacked out Tampa fans are fucked but you're not if you live in Boston.
Last year, the issue was that once the games started, the service had issues. Let me know how it is this year.Just logged into the PS3 app using my online login and it works like a charm. I selected the Pats game and it's currently streaming the CBS pre-game show. Quality is very, very good. Near-HD for sure.
Any idea the bandwidth being taken up by the stream?Just logged into the PS3 app using my online login and it works like a charm. I selected the Pats game and it's currently streaming the CBS pre-game show. Quality is very, very good. Near-HD for sure.
