Standalone NFL Sunday Ticket app announced for PS4/PS3, & etc.

[Rekkapryde]

I have metronet now. I called directv and asked if I have Sunday ticket max and go out of town could I take my ps4 and login and be able to watch. He said yes. Hopefully that means I can pay someone to share an account with me.

I used to sell my logon, but it looks like it was a good 9 year run with DTV.

Works in my area. Wondering if we can share accounts. 239 is pretty steep. Quality better be top notch

If the ps3 app was any indication, it's ok. Didn't look live tho if that makes any sense. It's just a little below the picture quality of espn on the xbox but I think that's a dtv issue.

Xbox One/PS3/PS4 are the only compatible consoles as of now

so all of us can

@Rekkapryde @We Ready

it might be that time of year to call D* and see what discounts they throw at us for NFL ST

What if I told you Xbox has a deal in place with the NFL, so All football games will be available on Xbox One in HD at 60fps (Broadcast TV is 30fps)
They won't be live, but as soon as they are over. You can watch the replay in 60fps

What if I told you that, would that have your attention

Couldn't tell you man. And it wasn't available last year so I couldn't find any info on it.

Go on...

Well sir, I didn't wanna go into all this until I had the story up myself
But it appears that good deal Xbox has made with the NFL isn't just to have a bullshyt app on the XB1
I'm hoping everyone realized that. So them with Microsoft created NFL NOW
First the 60fps part...

Microsoft has announced it is spicing up the live football coverage available through its Xbox One NFL Network app by offering something that current cable and satellite boxes simply can’t: sports delivered at 60 frames per second. Thanks to a new partnership with the online streaming specialists at Neulion, Microsoft will be able to increase the frame rate of its live football app content to up to double the frame rate of broadcast TV.

Fast-motion content, especially sports, benefits from higher frame rates. The higher speeds work to provide a smoother, more lifelike viewing experience. Neulion is able to deliver the lofty frame rates thanks to the Xbox One’s lightning-fast video card and its advanced processing – something few current streaming devices can match.

According to CED Magazine, Neulion has struck a multi-year deal with Microsoft to deliver 24/7 live sports programming, on demand coverage, and a host of live stats updates, such as those necessary for the app’s Fantasy Football monitoring system. The company currently produces on-demand content for several other devices, including Roku, Apple TVs, and PS3s, and will likely be working on providing content for the PS4 in the near future.

Neulion will be handling all the dirty work necessary to deliver the live streams to the Xbox One from its cloud-based platform, including encoding, transcoding, and formatting the streams. To assure no buffering will take place, the streams will be provided at seven different tiers, ranging from the top stream of 720p HD resolution at 60fps (about 6 Mbps), to below SD resolution at 30fps (about 600 kbps). The frame rate and pixel resolution will depend upon a viewer’s bandwidth and network conditions. No word was given as to whether the app will be scaled up to full 1080p HD resolution, but the faster frame rate could make it worth sacrificing a few pixels. According to CED, sports networks, including ESPN, have said time and again that frame rate trumps resolution if given a choice between one or the other.

The free watching and replays

NFL Now: Due to launch later this summer, NFL Now is set to be one of the National Football League's most ambitious projects yet. While there won't be any live streams of games, as we stated earlier, it will have full on-demand replays. Most importantly, the NFL won't require cable authentication for access and it will be completely free of charge. It will be available worldwide, with apps on iOS, Android, Windows Phone 8, Xbox One and other "select consoles and streaming devices."

This is where a couple of fanboys will go "But it says select consoles and streaming devices "
Forgetting Xbox paid $400 million to keep this app console exclusive.. similar to how ESPN app magically has never made it to sony
And then the NFL have a deal with ESPN as well. So basically we all fukkin on the greener side

Enjoy those expensive bullshyt alternatives sony fans :mjez:

that's actually dope as fukk.

It only required 3mbps at the time at minimum but I'm sure it'll be better this time around.

If I had a nickel for everytime I heard a sony fan say that

This is some next level Xbox exclusive shyt bruh. When one company does something, you can't just go "Where the sony version at"
They don't and cannot have a deal with the NFL... or ESPN
I'm watching the espy's right now while typing this shyt. And I don't even have cable bruh

I can watch the last game of the Worldcup.. I can watch all the summer league games from the last couple of days
I can watch all the rd.1 games right now.. in HD, no subscription to anything needed.
This is how Xbox rolls and been rolling for YEARS

Its shocking this isn't well known. Ask @King Sun about it

 

[detroitwalt]

I'm eligible
$239 package it is for me

I could never understand the appeal to buying some shyt like that.
Every sunday except for one week, my team will be playing
So on one half of a sunday, that's where my attention will be
Then the 2nd game will usually be the "game of the week" and it'll be on broadcast TV most likely

The one thing I be HATING is when you watching "The Game" at a friends house who had this shyt
Then they switch during the commercial... then switch back all late so you might miss a play... or a drive
It's happened. I think Redzone really makes this a weaker idea as well overall
Of course, there are those people who travel alot. But that don't make up the majority I'm sure
My 2cents...

I'm a die hard niners fan in alabama so that's the only way I can consistently watch, minus the one or 2 games i get to see in person every year if I take a trip. Plus i will watch football all day no matter who's playing.

Most 9er games are on National TV anyway. The 3/4 that are not this year, your Xbox has you covered in 60fps 720p
I too watch regardless who is playing. Jags vs Tenn might not get my FULL attention tho. But my team vs any team?
Start to finish its

And since you most likely can only watch 2/3 games a day. You can watch ALL THE OTHER GAMES THRU-OUT THE WEEK
You can purposely not see the scores... then you have NFL everyday of the week

Damn... shyt is about to get REAL

 

[ItWasWritten]

Of Course.

Lmaoooo

I know @PS4 is heated look at how many replies he has put in this thread, when he seen the title i know his heart must of dropped cuz this is all he had left. Poor little faggy fella...

Continue on stooge.
