Title: Reddit for non-local TV viewing
Post by: NCMUFan on January 31, 2020, 02:42:03 PM
I have been fortunate that the great majority of games have been FS1, FS2, CBSSN or Fox.  However, being out of state, my cable package does not include FS-Wisconsin.  I have never used Reddit, but have created an account.  Does one have to download any software to view?  Is it computer virus safe?

Googling "reddit cbb streams" should bring you where you need to go. No need to download any progams, besides maybe an adblocker extension. The links will take you directly to a stream.

First .. you don't need an account to browse reddit .. just post/vote.

You don't need software beyond a browser to watch streams.  "Is it virus safe?"  .. likely yes, but I wouldn't go on those sites without having an adblocker turned on.  Lots of ads, links to bad sites, etc.    I have an adblocker on, so it's a relatively clean screen with few things to click on.

(Typically, you do need to close-X out of at least one advert/overlay .. then hit the play button to get the stream going.)

What’s the best ad blocker? Are different browsers better than others?

Somehow, tomorrow's game is on Comcast in Florida.

We're on the Treasure Coast and we're going to get it!

Perhaps a sports bar in Jax will have it as well!  Not showing up this way on Xfinity.  Good to hear you have it, always a chance up this way.

This. Plus setup a Pi Hole on your home network.

uBlock Origin, another vote.

Except .. I find .. if I hit 100 websites in a week, 5-10 of them don't function properly with an adblock on.   Some input won't work, or a video won't play, or whatever.     Since the internet sucks so bad, and so many sites just don't work perfectly, I'm exempting sites from adblock quite frequently.

I mention that because .. that's what's always stopped me from using a network-wide service like Pi-hole.

I’m in the chicago DMA, and I’m surprised a DePaul game on a Saturday afternoon isn’t televised. According to the Tribune it’s radio only.

Neither of the reddit links for the game today are legit, anyone have one that's working?

The game was on Fox Sports Sun which, based on the advertising, was either Tampa or Ft. Lauderdale. At times I thought I was watching local TV in Tampa-St. Pete and at times it looked like the MIami-Ft. Lauderdale area.

Heck, at least it was on!

It’s both. All of Florida pro teams.
