TSN Delivers Comprehensive Coverage of the Final Grand Slam of the Tennis Season, the US OPEN, Beginning August 26

TSN's tennis coverage would be better if their streaming service wasn't a giant pile of ****. For a network that steals everything from ESPN — from programming to graphics — you'd think TSN could also use the same platform that makes WatchESPN so great.

She is a great ambassador for Canada !!!

So at one point in the coverage, I noticed that TSN switched from the ESPN feed to the WORLD feed. So they had access to both. Would had been nice had they put one feed on one set of TSN stations and the other feed on the other set so we could get different commentary.

 

[otown47]

For the quarter finals and semi finals the US feed was on one TSN channel and the international feed was on a different TSN channel. The final was on 2 TSN channels, both the US feed. I liked the international feed....

I would like to watch the Australian Open, is TSN+ the same as TSN?
Looking at Rogers ignite theme packs that's the only TSN I can find. Can you just subscribe for a month?
Just had another look and it appears TSN+ is a 4K channel. I don't have a 4K tv, does that mean I can't view it or would I just see it in 1080p?
Hoping someone can answer these questions for me.
TIA.
Sorry, I just noticed that only one of the TSN channels is in 4K.

You can subscribe to TSN Direct if you want: https://www.tsn.ca/subscribe?utm_so...tm_campaign=Raptors&utm_content=SeasonLaunch# It has nothing to do with your Rogers subscription one way or the other.

 

[bluedrongo]

@TheHans,

Thanks for your reply, I knew that I could subscribe directly with TSN Direct but I am not sure how that works with streaming it to my tv which is not smart.
The only streaming device I have is Fire tv stick.
I think it would be easier for me to just add the theme pack to my Rogers account and see it as a channel.

 

[TheHans]

I'm no expert on the Firestick, that's for sure. But doesn't Firestick have its own browser or you could install a browser: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0t3J0TVxQ3Y and then just go to the TSN Web site and sign in and watch the Aussie Open. Shappy's up first on Day One, so hurry up LOL.

 

[Dr.Dave]

Streaming through a browser doesn't work for devices, just Windows or Mac computers. If you want to stream to a device like a Fire Stick, you need an app for the service and there isn't a Fire Stick app for TSN.

Meh, TSN's online coverage is garbage compared to ESPN and always has been. ESPN streams every single court, every single day which means every single match is covered from men's to doubles to wheelchair. The best TSN can do is offer three courts? Get outta here!

All true, but he can't stream ESPN here legally after all and so we can't talk about how he can get ESPN. So at least TSN is available to him.

Can't she sideload with the Firestick? I'm pretty sure you can.

 

[bluedrongo]

Thanks for all the replies, just disappointed there wasn't better news.
So nobody in Canada covers all the courts and matches unless you use TSN direct which has no app for Firestick?
I have read conflicting articles that TSN app is available for FireTV 4k but have not been able to find it.
I would have purchased one if there was an available app that worked well.
It's hard to believe that something like the tennis grand slams are not available anywhere, would think that someone would be happy to take your money.
Guess I will just have to do without, I particularly wanted to watch certain players, so even if I subscribe to TSN through Ignite, I wouldn't neccessarily be able to watch any of these players.
I don't understand why ESPN is not available in Canada. Surely they would make a killing.

Btw, I'm a she not a he.

 

[TheHans]

You can probably sideload the TSN app on your Firestick. There are youtube videos all over explaining how to sideload an app on a Firestick. It's *really* easy. You can get ESPN in Canada, it's just a grey-area of legality. If you don't care about that, you can do it. Sorry for calling you "he," I'm a "she" too.

I copied this from the top of the TSN page link in the press release: "TSN DIRECT: STREAM EVERY MATCH OF THE AUSTRALIAN OPEN!"

@bluedrongo You can use your TV provider credentials (Rogers in your case) to login to the TSN web streams or app if you subscribe to TSN. TSN has 5 TV channels that it can use and that you can watch on your Rogers box, although other programming is also covered. If the match you want to see isn't on one of the TSN channels, you can login to watch it online live or later on demand. I don't subscribe to TSN, but my understanding is you shouls be able to watch the same content as TSN Direct.

You can use your computer to stream a match and plug in an HDMI cable to watch it on a TV.

@TheHans,

Thanks for the info, I had earlier looked into an app that helps sideload the TSN app but apparently the first app has been playing up after updates.
Good to know there are more of us she's around the board
@Dr.Dave, Thanks for that information. I think I will try adding TSN to my Ignite, pretty sure I can drop it after a month and if it works out then I can do the same for the other grand slams.
I do have an HDMI switch that has 3 HDMI inputs that are not being used.
