eball Posted October 23, 2015 Posted October 23, 2015 As a test last night I watched a movie via the Yahoo app on my fireTV Stick and it worked great. Not one stutter. If the game streams that well I will be very impressed. That's good news, unless you watched a movie about stuttering.
nucci Posted October 23, 2015 Posted October 23, 2015 Sorry if I missed it, but will it be clear if I go to Yahoo.com where to go to view the game? This link should be it https://nflstream.yahoo.com/
machine gun kelly Posted October 23, 2015 Posted October 23, 2015 I love that this event is causing many of us old-timers to enter the internet age! ok you guys aren't helping. The on line instructions tells me i can just click on the app and start watching. My cynical side says some little step i didn't do and will be throwing pretzels at the TV trying to get the game. I know it's easy on my laptop. I just want to watch the game. Again, if any of you young guys who can maneuver through the internet are telling me just hit the yahoo sports app and it is there first time using the yahoo app that is awesome.
26CornerBlitz Posted October 23, 2015 Posted October 23, 2015 @Art_Thiel Yahoo! bid $17M that it can stream flawlessly Sunday's #Bills-#Jags game globally, a milestone achievement. http://adage.com/article/media/yahoo-s-17-million-bet-nfl-streaming-tested-sunday/301040/
The Poojer Posted October 23, 2015 Posted October 23, 2015 Hell YES!!! @Art_Thiel Yahoo! bid $17M that it can stream flawlessly Sunday's #Bills-#Jags game globally, a milestone achievement. http://adage.com/article/media/yahoo-s-17-million-bet-nfl-streaming-tested-sunday/301040/
26CornerBlitz Posted October 23, 2015 Posted October 23, 2015 Hell YES!!! Of course this is a question of Would Ya?

I have a feeling it's not going to work. Live is completely different from on-demand.
WotAGuy Posted October 23, 2015 Posted October 23, 2015 @ProFootballTalkNFL’s streaming game on Yahoo to feature about eight minutes fewer commercials than normal broadcast http://wp.me/p14QSB-9Tg4 I know exactly how to spend those 8 minutes! I'll tell the old lady to expect 4 (ahem) "timeouts" during the game!
The Real Buffalo Joe Posted October 23, 2015 Posted October 23, 2015 Of course this is a question of Would Ya? Let's just say, that if this doesn't work, I have a few ideas of how Yahoo can pay me back.
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted October 23, 2015 Posted October 23, 2015 Wow - I am impressed! There is no way in hell I could have watched every part of every game over the past 15 years. I'd rather have watched baby seals getting clubbed to death than watch some Bills' games (i.e. the Giants game this year I turned off after the first INT as I knew where things were headed). It's a sickness. I can't look away.
nucci Posted October 23, 2015 Posted October 23, 2015 They'd better not !@#$ it up. I have a feeling it's not going to work. Live is completely different from on-demand. NBC Sports streams Sunday Night Football live every week
plenzmd1 Posted October 23, 2015 Posted October 23, 2015 Let's just say, that if this doesn't work, I have a few ideas of how Yahoo can pay me back. Haha...we need Pied Piper to compress this stream like a mofo. And BTW, she has delivered two babies....
17 Josh Allen Posted October 24, 2015 Posted October 24, 2015 (edited) For those who want to record the game that are streaming the game to your Windows desk top or iMac computer, you can use this piece of software to record the stream but you better have a very large hard drive or record it at a smaller formatt like 640 by 480 anyways heres the link http://m.movavi.com/how-to-capture-streaming-video/ Edited October 24, 2015 by billsareback
CodeMonkey Posted October 24, 2015 Posted October 24, 2015 (edited) Last night I took another look at the Yahoo app on my fireTV stick and there is a NFL Stream category there now. Right now it has 4 or 5 clips about the game, an interview with Rex and so on. So the fireTV and the Stick should be good to go 24.5 hours from now Edited October 24, 2015 by CodeMonkey

I have xbox one (NFL app), xbox 360 (Yahoo app), Fire TV (Yahoo app), and Chromecast (Chrome Browser via Laptop or Yahoo app via Android Phone) all set to go as options.
26CornerBlitz Posted October 24, 2015 Posted October 24, 2015 @RyanTalbotBills Yahoo has promised advertisers that 3.5M people will stream tomorrow's #Bills vs. #Jaguars game. Think it happens? http://www.scout.com/nfl/bills/story/1602900-yahoo-promises-3-5m-viewers-for-bills-jags
mac4095 Posted October 24, 2015 Posted October 24, 2015 FWIW I was able to connect my phone to my T.V. but had to get a Micro USB to HDMI MHL Adapter for my HTC One M8, USB cable will not work. Also discovered that Samsung HDMI adapters will not work with HTC. Tested by watching YouTube videos without a hitch. I think this will be more a test of my internet connection than Yahoo's ability to pull this off.

Nice to have that as another option.
