You can set overlap, although manually. (if it's a pass, you can set it once for the pass and not every game.)

Right. Never said it didn’t have value. Just describing the content. Same as it ever was, just a different name.

ESPN and The Mouse vs. YouTube TV
For now, it's "up to" 7 (most everbody gets 5) diff channels that have a pre-defined selection. I guess Phase 2 rollout is coming and will allow for picking your own mix. Haven't read yet about when the next updates come out. May/may not be a hotter priority with football season currently, as they already pushed out the "predefined channels" option. The "mix" channels are low 900's (on my guide, specifically 910, 912, 915, 920, 921)

ESPN and The Mouse vs. YouTube TV
Interesting. I just looked it up as well. Looks like both spectrum and dtv allow unlimited streams on your home network, and 3 streams away from home. That's a win over yttv. Not a huge one, but helpful.

ESPN and The Mouse vs. YouTube TV
Yeah, I have some mathin’ to do myself. But RSN’s are a perk for sure. Saves $20 on that app alone. Of course YTTV/Mouse will sort it out right after I switch. And apparently, cable cards are on their way out, so makes local dvr options different if a box has to be had (spectrum.) If I can stream all their shit, it’s an option at least. Been using a dtv login since the outage, and it’s fine. Have to look at how many streams they allow and that type of stuff, same for spectrum. (Basically have to build my case as to why I’m inconveniencing the wife 🙄)

I'm considering that as an alternative option as well, but not 100% sold on that idea just yet. Mainly, I have to do the math on it, and see how that setup would have to be. Especially if I have to have a different box. Their package with RSN's and the channels the wife "has to have", ends up putting us on their "top" tier @ 165/mo. So that alone is $75 higher than YTTV (granted, it has more channels), however it also includes streaming subs that I currently pay for which would offset that difference. Of course they're the ad supported versions, which I'm not sure if you can pay the difference or not. Sometimes you can, sometimes not. However, dropping those services and going with the ad versions that are included would offset that $75 difference, and maybe a hair more. We're talking total spent overall, of course. DTV would be similar, but without half the apps that spectrum offers. Wouldn't need any type of box, and they have all their channels in their streaming app. However I'm quite surprised at what I'm seeing there. Guess finding out they have a lot of stiff competition can do that. When I last had spectrum 3 years ago, I was paying $315/mo for tv/internet, plus any streaming services I had at the time. So this thing their offering now is half what it was at that time, give or take. DirectTV would be $125, but missing paramount+ and hbo subs. They do give you a sub to hulu/dis+/espn unlim, so some savings there I guess, but again, have to math it out at $35 higher than YTTV and not sure my dis/hulu subs cover all that. Still end up having to pay for paramount and peacock, but I think either a card or something else has paramount as a "perk", but of course none of those freebies are ad-free. Guess it's time to do some math, and see what I can find that will meet the wife approval factor.

Here's the Silver Slugger release. No mention of a fan vote: Here's the Plat Glove release: Guessing they would have included the fan vote blurb in the other as well, but who knows.

2025 MLB thread
I didn't recall that either, but it was mentioned in the release I got last night. Can't recall if the silver slugger is a similar vote or not. I don't think so, but can't say for sure without looking it up.

Safari? Lock it down. Turn off trackers, etc. Once you do, twitter stuff looks like this: Right click on the date and open in new tab if it’s something you want to see. Doing that and all the weird shit people have been mentioning will stop.- PGA Tour 2025

I didn’t mean throw coffee on someone specifically. I meant flip out, etc. Which is why I said something like that. I said she was wrong, and she was. But the difference is beat described by Sheriff Buford T Justice: “You can think about it… but don’t do it.”- ESPN and The Mouse vs. YouTube TV

That dude could have very easily ended up dead, and no charges would have been filed. Can’t tell me it wasn’t intentional, else why would they have been recording it. So yeah, not funny at all.- SEC Refs Suck

Playing around with the channels dvr setup. It’s a temp setup for testing, and if it’s acceptable I’ll go through and set it up proper. Right now I threw the server app in a VM on one of my proxmox boxes, and gave it 1TB of space on my NAS for recordings. I’m just playing with the “TV Everywhere” side of it, which is plenty to test with. Downside is TV Everywhere apparently doesn’t do sound in 5.1, only stereo. Not sure why, but probably to save bandwidth or some stupid shit. Initial impressions are favorable. Lack of 5.1 isn’t good for the streaming cable channels, but is what it is. It records well, and the DVR aspect is really good overall. It reminds me of Tivo in that regard. It also marks commercials and gives you a skip button on playback. Not every single channel can be viewed through “TV Everywhere”, but any I cared about were there. Even 3/4 of the local channels. Of course the one missing was the main local one I watch. Fixable with OTA, so not an issue, and I’m just making a note about it. Wife rolled her eyes about it. She’ll get over it once she realizes she would essentially be getting her Tivo features back. Next test I’m planning for it is to switch providers, and see how it handles all that. Looking for things like recording continuity, channel availability and priority, etc. If that is all copacetic, I’ll start building out a more permanent solution, spring for an attic antenna, and get the HD HomeRun for the OTA tuner. - Shit's Borked
