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.

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.

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/

They'd better not !@#$ it up. I have a feeling it's not going to work. Live is completely different from on-demand.

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.

NBC Sports streams Sunday Night Football live every week

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....

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

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 :)

Same here. Looks like we're all set to go. :thumbsup:


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.

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.

I have the same phone, but won't have to resort to the HDMI MHL route unless all else fails. Nice to have that as another option. :thumbsup:
