TSN has a hockey game at 5 (Ott/NJ).
I'm guessing the football game being shifted to TSN is next week, not this week.

Yep, your right. I misread the note that had been e-mailed to me and thought it had said this week without double checking... The posting at the top is correct for this week...

I'm with Rogers here in Ontario and the CTV feed for the Wild Card weekend games has been so uneven with their simulcast feed. I'm getting picture and sound drops from them. It seems almost as bad as it used to be with Global.

alebowgm · 2009-01-04, 05:37 PM

For the last few weeks I have had horrid OTA reception from Buffalo, so I am watching OTA on CFTO (CTV) and I have not noticed picture or sound drops during their broadcast today and it is nothing like when Global used to have the broadcasts. My only complaint is the late cut-in's as they don't always seem to get back to the U.S. broadcast when the U.S. network affiliates do, but I can live with that if it means there are no technical problems with the feed...

thegman · 2009-01-04, 06:17 PM

even the SD broadcast is having some audio/video problems, so Im guessing its a ctv problem. But, the simsub wont be dropped of course.

(as I say that, they comeback way late into the Fox halftime show).

Coming back late from commercials is not acceptable either!

NB Josh · 2009-01-04, 06:43 PM

No audio/video problems on the Fox end of things (in SD at least).

I do not disagree, but with that said I would rather them come late back from commercials (although not overly late, just a few seconds late is acceptable enough for me) than have technical difficulties.

I have not had anything noticeable today and I am a stickler for this stuff. With that said, I still wish i had by WUTV-DT feed working.

thegman · 2009-01-04, 08:02 PM

Here we go again, after the game, ctv showed about 7 minutes of commercials (was fox doing this as well? who knows, I would assume fox would have shown some sort of postgame?), and now ctv is subbing its Bang? show over Fox.

Isnt fox supposed to be 24 now (or maybe still postgame?)

10 minutes in, still ctv over fox. lol.. Im guessing Global wont be happy, it should be their simbsub over Fox. lol (and once again, I pity those PVR'ers that have them set to record fox at 8.. too bad you aint gonna get 24)

Classof83 · 2009-01-04, 08:18 PM

FOX had a few commercials, then a short post-game, and went to 24 at around 8:02.

thegman · 2009-01-04, 08:19 PM

Thanks for the update Class, looks like another email to the crtc, fat chance it does anything though.

And for the record, ctv is still over fox at 8:20.

Classof83 · 2009-01-04, 08:27 PM

Who is your cable / satellite provider?

thegman · 2009-01-04, 08:33 PM

Rogers of course, and now its some Christine Applegate with the CTV logo on Fox.

alebowgm · 2009-01-04, 08:36 PM

thegman, that is a Rogers issue as they control the Simsub. All CTV does is put in a request with the BDUs (in this case Rogers) to implement the Simsub of their programming when applicable on a U.S. station. The BDU (Rogers) and not the source (CTV) is responsible for the on/off switch. My suggestion, call them and complain, heck you may even get some comps out of them for it if you note how you have been waiting a long time to watch 24: Redemption and now you have missed it because of an error on their end...
