March Madness...???

What's the story this year with March Madness on iTune...?

I use camino and enabled Flip4Mac for internet content, and the live streams are working fine now. This is using the CBS sportsline.com MMOD site.
In a previous post, I suggested using camitools to emulate another browser, but this works better: do not allow camitools to emulate another browser--just use plain old Camino, and make sure before you launch Camino that you go to system prefs and enable Flip4Mac for internet content (first tab, first box checked). I'm on a PB G4, btw.
Good luck.

March Madness 2014 application - streaming

Is it possible to utlize the lightening to HDMI conversion cable to stream the March Madness 2014 application to my TV. I have ATV and airplay is not supported for this application.

If the developer has crippled Airplay on the app, I would think that you will not be able to mirror the app with a cable. Mirroring is often crippled on ATV or TVs at the request of the content owners as it is usually a copyright issue.

March Madness streaming help for the tourney

Help here im trying to watch streaming online games of March Madness for all us Americans you know what i mean
anyone able to get moonlight working with that page or anyother media player so i can rip my hair out watching these crazy games
here is the link to the NCAA page for the player http://mmod.ncaa.com/video
any help would be appreciated

Did you try going to the Moonlight site and installing the Firefox addon? http://www.go-mono.com/moonlight/ I clicked on your link and everything was working, aparently, but i can't definitely tell since there were no matches at that moment.

I have the first iPad but I am not able to download the NCAA march madness app

I have the first iPad but I am not able to download the NCAA march madness app

what happens when you try? Does the app require a higher version of iOS? If that is the case, you are out of luck as iOS 5.1.1 is the highest for the iPad 1.

NCAA March Madness On Demand

This is driving me crazy. I'm on a MacBook Pro 13", 2.53 Intel Core 2 Duo, 4 GB RAM, Snow Leopard 10.6.2 and I can't get this to work in any browser. The player pops up but no video, no matter what I click on it tells me to make a selection. Please, anyone help, I have a similar issue with ESPN360. I know my computer/internet is capable of this, I never have problems with NBC's Sunday Night Football player.

So I tried both the NCAA March Madness player and the ESPN360 player on the guest account included with the Mac, and they both worked. Can anyone think of any reason why this would be? Has anyone found anything on their Mac that has caused this?

HT4437 No AirPlay with March Madness Live

I have an iPad purchased in April 2013 and Apple TV purchased in October 2013. March Madness Live 2014 will not display video content via AirPlay or mirroring. All other apps will. NCAA tech folk say it's an Apple problem. Ideas?

Other reviewers are also reporting that AirPlay is not provided in this app.:
"Another surprising omission is the lack of an AirPlay option for IOS device users with Apple TV. "
http://thestreamingadvisor.com/2014/03/13/how-to-watch-the-entire-ncaa-tournamen t-online-with-the-march-madness-app/
so despite what the NCAA tech person tried to claim, the issue is with the app - probably due to their agreements with the networks and cable providers - not with your iPad.
Regards.

Way to stream March Madness TV from iphone 3gs to iPad 1 via wifi or cable?

I would like basketball on a bigger (iPad)screen. I do not have access to TV at work. I can't tether because of the high data usage. I only want the iPhone's video signal I am already getting to get to (mirror on) the iPad. Any thoughts. THX

You are right, if necessary I will pay
Just was hoping to find something like Air Video that could send video or mirror video from the phone to the pad. Now that you mention it, maybe I could use software that puts my iphone screen on my MacBook (i know that exists)and just zoom the image to fill the laptop screen....tada....big screen.....thx for your reply

March Madness on Demand!!!!

OK, so I want to watch the tournament games on my PB, but for some reason they just won't work. I've already installed RealPlayer and Windows Media Player, but for some reason it always just says "Connecting to media" and eventually (after like 10 min) i just get an error message and it never works. It works on my PC's, just not on my mac. Anyone else having problems? Here's the link for the site ... http://www.ncaasports.com/mmod/welcome
PLEASE HELP!!! THANKS IN ADVANCE!!!

March Madness: silverlight and Safari?

Hi all, I am posting this question again since I got no answer on the Safari section of these forums - hope I am not obnoxious
I have been trying to watch MMOD on my Macbook, intel core duo 2GHz, 2Gb RAM, running OSX 10.5.6 and Safari 3.2.1
I downloaded and installed the Silverlight 2 plugin,
but when I try to get to the actual video page of MMOD, I only get a blank window while the browser tells me it has downloaded 100% of the page.
I have been trying to mess a bit with preferences without success.
The same exact problem appears on my Firefox...
Any clues? Thanks in advance!
Andreas

If by session you mean accounts, then the main account has corruption/conflicts. Create a new admin user account, log into it, and see if it works correctly there. If so, see http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=9184045#9184045 for resolving the conflict/corruption.

Streaming ncaa march madness by airplay with app

Apple TV is connected and shows up on TV. and I see ads, I get the audio but not the video

Not all apps are enabled for airplay, this is up to the developer to do.

Leeloo is ready for Spring Break. Are you?

How about having the digital life app able to use the landscape mode. It would be a great improvement

Itunes doesn't list all of my recent podcasts. My show is Black Tribbles and it only shows episodes through March 2013, however we do at least two shows a week and they aren't listed. The feed works because the show update to my computer. Help please.

Itunes doesn't list all of my recent podcasts. My show is Black Tribbles and it only shows episodes through March 2013, however we do at least two shows a week and they aren't listed. The feed works because the show update to my computer. Help please.

Your feed is at http://blacktribbles.podomatic.com/rss2.xml
When subscribed to in iTunes the recent episodes show, but the Store hasn't updated for some time.
There appears to be an issue with the feed. In the episode 'WRESTLING MARCH MADNESS: Final Bracket & Championship' of 31st March you will find in the 'description' tag the following line:
4. KURT ANGLE
At the end of this line is an invisible character which seems to be wrecking the feed - although it works OK when suscribing in iTunes it won't load in a browser (and I also found the feed very slow to load, which won't help matters with the Store)
This sort of thing usually happens when you paste text in from a word processing application and manage to include one of the invisible control characters. I don't know how easy it will be do do it in Podomatic but you should delete that entire line and retype it to remove this charter.
You should keep an eye on the time it takes the feed to be accessed - if there is a long enough delay (and it was quite some seconds when I tried) the Store may well timeout and fail to read it. At the moment it's showing a cached version from the last time it was able to read it.

A complaint in the hope of a solution, or at least some attention.

On May of 2011, an update to X.Org was pushed into core that made working with a netbook very difficult. I have an acer with 250gb HDD, 2GB RAM and a 1.6Ghz processor. For all but the most taxing tasks, it it quite snappy. The obvious limitation is the screen. Cue linux. There is a feature of X.Org that allows one to scale the screen upwards, to have a higher virtual resolution. I've used it to artificially upgrade video performance on laptops, desktops, and netbooks for a while. The syntax is as follows: xrandr --output [screen name] --mode [current resolution] --scale [decimal of scaling percentage] --panning [new resolution] For my 1024x600 screen, it is xrandr --output LVDS1 --mode 1024x600 --scale 1.25x1.25 --panning 1280x750
Arch was for a long time my favorite linux distribution. The update in march made panning not work any more; the mouse becomes trapped within a border the size of the origional screen, situated in the upper left. When this update was pushed through, the arch forums were ablaze with help threads looking for an answer. I was the only one motivated enough to post a bug report. Despite the attention surrounding it, and the fact that it makes netbooks very hard to use, it was flagged as a low priority and ignored by the X.Org package maintainer.
https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/24274
I did some testing to confirm it was not an intel driver update, but indeed the xorg package, and it is. I emailed the package maintainer, submitted a bug report, annoyed some devs on the freenode channel, and basically got referred from one dev to another as they all told me it wasn't their area of expertise and that I should fix it myself. Despite an attempt at teaching myself the entire X.org subsystem, I came up empty handed.The attention died down. I accepted that to use my netbook, I would have to switch distributions. I have been running gentoo with their X.Org updated to the same version and its working fine. It must be some patching done by the arch devs itself that broke it. Yes, this issue is that important to some of us that we will leave arch rather than have our computers crippled. Nowadays, all I hear about it is a tri-weekly comment on the bug report confirming it and asking why it has not been fixed.
Why hasn't it been fixed? I will try to fix it again, if any devs familar with X.Org would be willing to help me. I miss arch. I miss the speed. I miss the simplicity. I miss the adherance to the pilosophy of simplicity. May I ask that the people who maintain the package at least try to fix it?

sublimepua wrote:May I ask that the people who maintain the package at least try to fix it?
Sounds as if you try to fix this within the arch community when it is a x.org problem...
Have you tried reporting the bug upstream?

USDA direct- my process-CLEAR TO CLOSE!

There is quite a bit of info out there on various mortgage processes but very little to be found by googling USDA direct. I figured I would share my experience so others might have some more info going into this process. I started rebuilding (in honesty building) my credit last may (2014). Took out a share secured loan thru my very local credit union to pay off some old baddies on my report. Got everything paid, and all but 1 negative off my report in a few months. (Lots and lots of phone calls, GW letters and a bit of luck (thanks for cramming all those bills T-mobile)).In December I submitted a pre application to my local USDA office. Got a phone call back a week later. She actually transferred me to another office in the next county (Thank youfor that.) I called the lady who was listed as the coordinator for that office on 1-7-2015. We chatted for perhaps 15 minutes, she explained the program very thouroughly, answered a few of my questions and asked very nicely if I would like her to send out the full application. She inquired about my credit, I gave her a basic rundown, relatively new, clean EQ (last collection never got to that report 1 very old paid negative on TU and EX.) She said that should be fine, might require a letter of explanation.Recieved full app on 1-9 (wow, thats flying for government work right?). Began filling out the app. Had a couple questions, so I emailed her, to ask. Response within 30 minutes. Finished application, printed out 4k pages of financial documents (OK very SLIGHT exaggeration). On a whim, decided to call TU to see if my 7 yr old collection could be early excluded before I sent in my app.TU early excluded. WOW nice. EX I spoke to a very nice lady who told me it wasnt possible to do until February. OK, I figured I will wait to submit my app for a couple weeks.Fast forward to 2-2-15, (of course 2-1 had to be a Sunday, so had to wait to call EX.) Spoke to the same very nice lady (wow dumb luck there). She granted the early exclusion. Told me it might take 24-48 hours to update. I printed out updates to bank statements that had changed to make an addendum to my application. Created a spreadsheet for my net worth to add to my app as the numbers had changed. Midway thru completing that I got an email from EX saying they had updated my file. Log on, print out (wow shiny) clean EX credit report.Stuff a novel's worth of paperwork in an envelope and mail to the USDA on 2-3-15. 2-23-15, get a ping on capital one credit tracker of a new inquiry. CBB Innovis. Shortly thereafter CK sends me an email, new inq TU and EQ. CBB Innovis. 2-26-15 my fico inquiry only on EX and EQ (still no inq on TU on my fico as of 3-17 lol). Go into work on 2-26-15 and find out they called to verify my employment.nothing happens for a week, so being me (impatient and curious to put it nicely) I send Amy an email. Simply asked if there was anything else she needed from me. 20 minutes later I get an email, my file is on her desk for review, hopefully next couple days.3-15 I send an email to her to update info (secured loan will be paid off as of 4-1-2015 13 months earlier than the term just wanted to let her know in case that changes anything) 3-16-15, first thing in the morning she emails me back says fantastic as that helps with DTI, will give you some flexibility on amount of loan, please call me. I work nights so first thing in the morning is the crack of noon. I call her, she asks when can I come in for my homebuyers meeting. She suggests Friday 3-20-15 or the following week. Well Friday 3-20 is march madness. and while buying a home > just about everything, march madness for me is one of the rare times all of my very old friends get together for 4 days of pretending we aren't middle aged. I say Monday, Thursday or Friday of the following week would be perfect. Meeting set for Monday 3-23-15.Will update as things progress. Honestly the only real advice I would give someone going into the process is follow up when you know things have happened. Patience may be a virtue, but advocate for yourself, do it nicely but don't let yourself get tossed onto a back burner. My coordinator has been friendly and knowledgeable every step of the way, but it has been more of I send an email or make a call and we move the next step. Simply sending a polite email asking if anything else is needed can move you along.The other thing I would advise, send anything they could possibly want. She thanked me for the completeness of my financial documents when I sent them in. I sent 3 months of paystubs rather than 2 pay periods, an explanation on 1 of my bank accounts (only had 1 statement as they are quarterly) and a current register print out. If you think they might need it, just send it. Pro tip: your 6th grade report card is not neccessary.As I said I will add to this as it moves along.Thanks for reading,PF update.... had my orientation meeting 3/23/15She went over the program, no big suprises. She told me what my pre qualification amount would be. (It varies depending on the overall monthly payment, selling price is not the main focus here (northern illinois) as property taxes can vary wildly). Basically i can go up to a payment of around 700 dollars a month (which she was fairly negotiable on because of mitigating factors (MY HIGH CREDIT SCORE (Hehehe) and having relatively high cash reserves.) I was told i should have my Certificate of Eligibility in my hands by 3-30-15. She emailed me on Friday 3-27 to tell me it was on its way.I responded with an email containing several properties to confirm they were in rural areas (we have some strange islands of non eligible areas). Response within a half hour confirming all homes met the criteria. Met with a couple realtors during the week, found one with usda experience that i liked, start the looking for real process on 4-01-15.Will continue to update as I move along.oh, i will qualify for subsidy, but probably won't use it. My payment will put me right where I wanted to be anyway.Update 3-31-15 certificate of Eligibility in my hands. Talked with a few realtors, 2 which had USDA experience, 1 who didnt. Didnt like the two who did, so rolling the dice with the other one. Went and looked at several houses that fit my budget and needs. Have a handful more to look at next week. The one i like best is 6 sq ft over size restrictions, but well under budget, coordinator says a waiver should be no problem as my payments will be low enough to allow higher utilities. And I told her i would turn off the heat in the bathroom Did some more looking, found a great house in almost the exact neighborhood I would have chosen, impressive considering my search comprised of 6 whole counties and parts of 3 more. Saw the house on thurs 4-30-2015. Made an official offer today, Sunday 5-3-2015. My agent has been fantastic, and my USDA coordinator every bit as good. They have seemed to kind of start working together, almost seamlessly. It is my agents first USDA loan, so he is learning as he goes, but after being skeptical at first he seems to have embraced it. Hes been in the biz for a long time and is positively mystified he hasnt seen one based on the amount of his areas that the USDA covers. Moving on, I have an email into my coordinator as i need an updated prequal letter. She wrote the prequal based on considerably higher taxes and made me a friendly bet I couldnt find a house with taxes less than 2400/yr. I believe she has lost that bet, my offer has taxes of 1884. With no exemptions. So i need a letter that says i can go a bit higher, based on the lower tax number.5-4-2015 Woke up to a response, letter will be in my and realtors hand first thing tomorrow. Also confirmed that my coordinator is fine with me doing my homebuyers education class in the online form.5-4-2015 pt 2 seller countered my offer up 2k, I accepted. not worth wrangling over nickels. I want the house, he wants to sell, everybody seems to be happy. now on to the annoying stuff and waiting to hurry up I guess.5-5-2015 completed homebuyers ED course. Honestly they should just send people here. This place has taught me way more have a short phone meeting with the lady in charge of that and another box checked off. Call scheduled for 5-7 afternoon.Home inspection and radon test scheduled for 5-7-2015.5-6-2015 Homeowners insurance quotes. Got full replacement coverage lined up, 579 for the year. Far better than expected Also dropped my car insurance by a not insignificant number. Woo hoo. Now on to the inspection and waiting!5-8-2015 Inspection! Cue the darth vader music. Actually my inspector was a good guy, and in another 6 weeks will likely be one of my neighbors (well a few blocks anyway) He took us around the outside first, showed us where there was an addition to the foundation (a screened in porch was made part ofthe house). He was impressed with the job done. Proceed inside,he did a quick walk thru, then we started from the basement up. All of the systems of the house had been redone 20 years ago, house was built in 1900. He looked a bit, and was thouroghly impressed. He said I may have one of the most modern 100 year old houses he has ever seen. Move to main level, appliances work, but are a bit dated. Everything functional and well maintained. A very few very minor things (he said "I am actually nitpicking just to find some things.") Main level bath all good, move to upstairs (just one bath and bed). Toilet is loose in the bath, everything else looks good. We check the attics, clean, well WELL insulated. We finish up, he tells me I will have the report in my hands, and that with a few cosmetics the house could easily be worth 25-40 over what my offer is in at. I tell him to come over for some barbecue in a few weeks. (I have 2 commercial smokers and can do a few things.) He tells my agent and I "Good find guys." Thanks again. Well, that wasn't nearly as scary as I had feared. One breaker is double tapped (an electrician will tell you the reason for 2 taps is to use them ) reccomends a few extra inches of downspouts on 2 of the gutters ("the foundation's rock solid lets kep 'er that way") fix the toilet (DUH) and a bit of backfill at the back of the garage.Up next- Radon test scheduled for5-11-2015 Radon came back slightly elevated. 4.5 microwhatevers.Submitted repair request to seller on 5-13, for the toilet, tuckpointing the chimney, smoke/CO detectors, door closers (whatever the heck those things are called), double tapped breaker, and radon mitigation.5-21-15 Seller agreed to all repairs (phew it wasn't the money but the PITA it would have been to have a supervised bank account for piddly stuff.)Next up,6-4-15 the appraisal!Apparently appraisal was done early, as today 6-3-15 I recieved my Funding commitment letter, and a likely moving up of closing by a week, to 6-22-15!6-16-2015 Seller was not able to be ready early, so my closing is back to the original date of 6-29-2015. Recieved conformation of closing being scheduled today. Also notified that the last 2 items on the repair list have been completed, tuckpointing the chimney and radon mitigation. For anyone curious, mitigation cost 1075 dollars, radon levels initially at 4.5 post mitigation 0.9. Also after getting quotes I agreed to pay for the chimney @ 750 dollars which got me metal flashing rather than tar. Seller absorbed all other repair costs.6-18-15 got clear to buy 1st year HO insurance policy.6-23-15 official CLEAR to CLOSE. Final numbers confirmed. I do qualify for a payment subsidy of around 90 bucks a month, going to find out what deducts from subsidy recapture to decide whether to accept or reject which is done at closing.6-26-15 Recieved HUD1 from the title company, via the lawyers. Everything matches and looks correct. Final walk through Monday morning before closing.6-29-15 Closed. Was a very simple and painless process. the lawyer and agent both said it was the least paperwork they had ever seen. Seller actually left me a bunch of tools (shovels rakes etc.) Was a very cordial process, I think everybody got what they wanted out of the deal. Thanks to all who gave me guidance, prodding and keepingme moving along. If anything in here isn't clear, feel free to PM me any questions (I have fairly detailed notes and almost all of my emails).Good luck to everybody else. Remember be proactive, but with USDA you need to have some patience too.

Pfarro1, you're about 3 weeks ahead of us on the timeline. I was just telling our realtor today that having a government mortgage application should be marketed as being a lesson in self-control & patience. I don't feel like it's time for me to start bothering our USDA rep yet. Maybe I will in another week or 10 days.(?) Here's our timeline so far: Submitted pre-qual via email 1/14/15 -- USDA did a single hard credit pull 1/23/15Invited to apply 1/30/15 -- Submitted application via email 1/31/15 Mailed requested documents via USPS Priority & payment for credit check 2/20/15 (delivered 2/23/15) At least 2 credit inquiries by USDA 3/10/15 -- $32 check to USDA for credit report hit the bank 3/17/15I would not bug them, just a simple email asking if there's anything else they need, like most recent paystub. I'm sure they don't need it, but it puts you back on the coordinators mind. Out of sight out of mind, so this wheel has no problem making a little squeak every once in a while.

How to Improve Ability to Watch Internet Video?

I have noticed what seems to be a decrease in the technical quality of many videos I try to watch on a variety of different internet sites--from Youtube to sports to news and current events. Quite a bit of the video is just so choppy (is this a slow frame rate?) that it just looks like a few still pictures sequenced one after the other. I've even experienced choppy or slurred audio accompanying some of the video (I would think that audio should not really be a problem on the internet these days).
I have a cable broadband connection, roughly 4.5 MB/sec down and 450 kB/sec up and speed checks always seem to be OK.
I have the most up to date version of Flash, Flip4Mac and even MS Silverlight (I believe only the first gen. works with PPC Macs).
One interesting observation I have made, is that my son's iPod touch (connected to our home Wi-Fi network) has great looking (compared to my iMac), smooth frame rate video on Youtube and on March Madness on Demand (back during the NCAA tournament). My iMac is hardwired into our wireless router, by the way.
Is the current coding, formatting, whatever, of internet video just leaving my PPC iMac in the dust or is there something anyone can suggest (I know, the first suggestion is probably to get a current Intel iMac!)? I mean, if the iPod touch can play such relatively high quality video, then it's not pure processor speed, afterall I do have a 1 GHz PPC in this iMac.
Watching all this internet video is not essential, but it has become such an integral part of the internet experience that I'd really like to do something to improve the quality of the experience.
Thanks,
Steve M.

"(I know, the first suggestion is probably to get a current Intel iMac!)?"
Not from me! Never a problem viewing +"internet videos."+ on my PPC. Also make sure you have the latest versions of QuickTime, VLC Media Player and Perian (AVI and FLV support).
Make sure you repair permissions & restart your computer. Most times, this clears up video issues. Last resort, running repair permissions from your HD and afterwards run +repair disk+ from your software install DVD.
Another thing to check is your browser(s) Preferences plug-in mappings. In FireFox, it's location under the Applications tab. I do not use Safari so have no idea where their file mappings are other than somewhere in Preferences.

March Madness...???
