Is there a good way to record the streaming games?

I record all of the games on linear to watch on delay, but often can start watching like halfway through so waiting for the game to end to catch the replay isn’t as appealing. A Big downside from my perspective to ESPN+ that I don’t have to deal with when we are on actual tv.

Yes/No.

No to doing it on TVs and other shit.

Yes if you watch the broadcast on your computer and use a service like OBS to record the game, or just set up a computer to record the broadcast and watch elsewhere.

I thought ESPN+ let's you start from the beginning no? I know for Bundesliga games i have that option
 
I've also started NHL games from the beginning on ESPN+. Perhaps the availability varies depending on the device running ESPN+.
 
Bally will not be paying Raycom for $$$ owed. Raycom will have to find another outlet for content distribution.

Funny how Disney buying Fox has just ended up with Disney and Sinclair holding a bunch of debt.

Agree! Makes one wonder if there is enough revenue to satisfy these providers going forward. Conference realignments are all playing to the number of eyeballs they can capture. Will be interesting to see how this plays out.
 
Games on the CW now. Just announced.


ATLANTIC COAST CONFERENCE FOOTBALL AND BASKETBALL COMING TO THE CW NETWORK THIS FALL



The CW Network to Air Games Every Saturday Throughout the Season



Kicks Off September 9 with Pitt Football Playing Host to Non-Conference Foe Cincinnati​



July 13, 2023 (Burbank, CA) – The CW Network announced it has secured exclusive broadcast rights to 50 Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) college football and basketball games each season through 2026-27. The first ACC football game will air on The CW on Saturday, September 9 with a matchup between the Pitt Panthers and non-conference opponent Cincinnati Bearcats, with games airing every Saturday throughout the season in the afternoon and in primetime. In addition to 13 football games, The CW will broadcast 28 men’s basketball games and nine women’s basketball games. These games will be featured in December, January and February with men’s basketball doubleheaders taking place every Saturday afternoon and women’s basketball games on Sunday afternoons. Raycom Sports will produce all games for The CW.



“We are thrilled to be adding The CW to our weekly television lineup for ACC football and basketball games,” said ACC Commissioner Jim Phillips, Ph.D. “The CW’s national distribution will directly benefit our student-athletes, teams, alumni and fans. We appreciate ESPN and Raycom working together and look forward to the partnership with The CW.”



“We are committed to making The CW a destination for live, appointment-viewing sporting events,” said Dennis Miller, President, The CW Network. “The ACC is home to some of the most decorated college football and basketball teams in the country and we look forward to welcoming these avid sports fans to the network as we continue to broaden our audience.”



“The CW is going to be a terrific partner for the legendary ACC,” said Hunter Nickell, CEO of Raycom Sports. “The longest-running television relationship in college sports belongs to the ACC and Raycom Sports. Now The CW brings national broadcast network coverage to the great fans of these 15 famous schools.”



The ACC and its 15 member institutions have enjoyed incredible success including:



· No other conference has won more NCAA national championships in the last two years than the ACC. The league has won 16 national titles in the last two academic years, including a league-record nine in 2022-23.

· The ACC has won seven national championships in football, men’s basketball, women’s basketball and baseball since 2015. The ACC is the only conference to win each of those four titles over that stretch.

· The ACC has had a team in either the College Football Playoff or the BCS National Championship Game in eight of the last 10 years, including two teams in 2020. The ACC has placed the second-most teams in the CFP since its inception.

· The ACC placed nine teams in football postseason games in 2021. That marked the 22nd consecutive season in which the ACC earned at least six bowl bids. Not including the pandemic-affected 2020 season, the ACC has sent at least nine teams to a bowl every year since 2016. Since 2013, the ACC is second among all conferences with 100 postseason appearances.

· ACC men’s basketball teams have combined to win three of the last eight NCAA National Championships and eight of the last 22 NCAA Titles, and both are the most of any league. ACC teams have combined for the most NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament wins in history and five different programs have advanced to the Final Four since 2015, the most of any league. Over the last two seasons, the ACC holds a 21-10 record, the best of any major conference.

· ACC women’s basketball programs have made 23 trips to the Final Four, which includes nine different institutions and has had five Final Four appearances in the last five years. The ACC has 21-straight Elite Eight appearances and the most NCAA Tournament wins since 2014. The league’s eight bids in 2023 were the most of any conference.



The CW acquired the rights to these live ACC football and basketball games from Raycom Sports who sublicenses the rights from ESPN.

Yes, if your market has a CW station. This is very good news unless you're in a market that is losing a CW station which includes GT and Pitt local markets.

Most television markets in the US have Nexstar owned stations, so the prevailing thought is Nexstar will put the CW on those stations secondary channels. Unfortunately No Nexstar in Atlanta or Pittsburgh.

The big question is if the ACC schools get any extra money from this. I assume not.

Don't think so. I think this is part of the ongoing Raycom/ESPN deal.

At least in my market, CW used to have the noon Raycom game several years ago.
 
Will ACCN handle the production? Typically, the Bally games had different announcers, graphics and production. CW doesn’t have that infrastructure.
