    Do the Braves not allow their games to be archived by the service? Its the only game I am not able to access. Luckily, I dvr'ed it earlier.

    Don't think they have control over that. No reason to feet want to watch this game over again though

    The archive notification came rather late in the day. Normally they are available about 10-15 min after the game.

    Not to change the subject, but anyone else annoyed by the fact that if you watch the game later in the day or next day, you still have to sit through 2 minutes of "commercial break in progress"? I could understand if you were watching commercials that were paying for the service but 2 minutes of nothing!

    It's always been that way. Lame as it is.

    You CAN click on the line score to jump from inning to inning IIRC

    So is this thing still really slow and behind like it's been in years past?

    Define slow?

    It runs beeeeeaaautifully on all my IOS devices, including my iphone4s. Where it struggles is older devices like older computers with slow processors, ram, hard drive.

    It runs fantastic but the HD does seem to be a little behind. Wasn't last year, but was during game one.

    I have had issues in the past being able to sustain a decent picture. I have had any good enough internet and my computer was fast enough. I love the concept, but I am leaning towards the baseball package on through direct tv.

    If you already have Directv with a dvr, I think it will give you a more user friendly experience to watch Braves games. Better picture quality, easy fast forward/rewind. I had it for several years, but since I don't have Directv right now, I went with MLBtv

    You sure? It does work with my Roku. They're catalogued by half inning and you can jump.

    Yeah it's just easier and more conveinent through my TV. Granted it's about 50 bucks more for the entire season. Not sure if I will get it yet. Need to try and save money for my wedding next year.

    I've got it once again this year (I think 10th year in a row). I stream it through the apple TV MLB TV app, so it works great on my tv. The only issues I run into are when we've got a slow internet connection in the apartment (multiple devices running on the internet at once) and it can get a little choppy.

    I agree 100%, but I thought it would help with the weekday day games. Living outside market the 7 pm FSS and SS replays are blacked out. Nothing crams a DVR faster than pro sports games you can't get through in a timely manner.

    I caved in and bought extra innings for direct tv. With that I also get mlb.tv as well. So I have it on my phone and tv for the flat rate of 33 bucks a month.
