NESN OT: NESN production issues (audio, video, graphics, programming)

[Chief Nine]

Thank God I don’t I have cable. My DirecTV signal for the sat NESN is on is at 98%

This comes and goes. I forget about it and then there’s nights like this where you go WTF Xfinity. My son tells me this happens at his friends house in the same city too.

FIOS an option on your street?

It might be now. Last time I checked it wasn’t

That is on Xfinity

I have Charter and the NESN feed kept going black?...

Did you lose the picture or was it pixelating like crazy?

 

[GloryDaze4877]

Alex Kraemer is horrible.
I want Jamie Erdahl back

Liked Erdahl, really liked Rob Simpson, and loved KT.

Lost picture entirely for a second and then it came back. Was doing it every 5-6 minutes.

That’s pretty much the same interval with what was going on here but we didn’t lose the picture, it just pixelates and the audio goes choppy

The game was also on the NHL Network (the NESN feed). Not sure if that had something to do with the issues?

Who knows? We see this with NBCSN too with the Weds games. My son thinks it has something to do with live sports but I don’t see this when the Patriots play. But those are network feeds vs cable so he might be right

 

[Fenway]

Thanks again! Of course I get this

Your line has a leak

No NHL Network gets a direct fiber feed to their control center near Denver. Their studios are in New Jersey but Colorado is their master control.

I hope it’s just my line and not me Should I call Xfinity about this? Is it something they should be able to pick up?

They might need to send a tech out - but that error message indicates a problem

Joseph Maar, NESN’s vice president of programming and production and executive producer since July 2012, is leaving the network at the end of April. Maar, who had a significant say in the network’s programming and personnel decisions over the past six years, is departing to pursue “interests in sports technology and content production,” per a NESN spokesman. The network has already begun its search to find his replacement.

I take it you are posting this in here because this means their flea circus production quality can only get better now?

At both ends of the coax cable, unscrew the connection a couple of turns, and then tighten it back up the best you can with your fingers. No guarantees that'll work, but if you call Xfinity, they'll have you do the same thing.

If that doesn't work, you'll probably want to call Video Tech Support.

It seems they are insinuating that he ran into issues trying to make improvements...

Thanks @Gator Mike. It’s odd it happens really very rarely now so lord knows calling Comcast isn’t gonna do any good

Joe Maar was Tom Werner's point person in Watertown and he found ways to save money on production. NESN has the worst graphics of any RSN in the US and that is about to change.

Let's see who John Henry hires.

It is horrible. I don’t even watch except for the Bruins games. They have a laughable 15 sports minute repeating every 15 minutes in the morning. NBC is killing them with content. We won’t talk about the game quality. It’s been beaten to death. Werner screwed everything up.

Now to be fair you left out those great infomercials.
