Bucks in HD Tuesday vs. Clippers!

[John L]

For those of you who can get FSN-North, they will be broadcasting the Bucks game at the Los Angeles Clippers @ 9:30 pm Tuesday in High Definition.

The next night vs. Golden State is also on FSN North - HD  :cool:

[Absopo]

Is it just me or does FSN rarely broadcast anything?!?

[Scott]

I'm assuming those of us with Direct TV will be left on the outside looking in here again?

I saw one brewers game on channel 95 last summer that was an FSN game in HD, but no Bucks games ever.

Can FSNN be picked up OTA, or strictly subscriber/pay?  I'm in Sheboygan County.
Thanks in advance,

FSN North HD is only carried by TWC at the present as far as I know.  And they only have about 3 games a month in the summer of Brewers, so actually it's a waste of bandwidth on TWC if you ask me.

Not even 3 games a month!

I only have Analog Cable and watch HD via OTA, so can i watch the game with my digtial/hd receiver? (basicly is FSNN unencrypted like NBC/FOX/ABC...?)

FSNN-HD broadcasts nothing untill there is an HD game, so i don't know if i do a scan while the game is on i will see it.

I doubt i will see it hd tonight.
And if I go to any bar they have a nice plasma with stretched analog (Do any bars do HD?)

I agree, the fact that they're dark when not broadcasting in HD is... odd. Why not have an upconverted simulcast of the SD feed... or at the very least, a FSN logo so at least they're showing SOMETHING.

What would be nice is if TWC would show something else on that channel when FSN isn't on the air... I'm not holding my breath, but it'd be nice.

Does anyone know if I can get FSN HD through DirecTV?

Last's nights game seemed fine to me, but tonight against Golden State there is no audio for me on 531, and the picture is choppy at best...

Same for me...no audio and pic is ok at best until they go to a replay then pic gets crappy.

[Chris G]

WOW do they have that video super compressed... it's almost hard to watch... and yes, replays are absolutely awful, not watchable at all.... and no audio.

TWC and FSN - what's the point of all of this? A channel that is dark 99% of the time, and when it's actually showing something, it's such a low quality that you're better off watching the SD channel?

[Chris G]

Audio just kicked in @ 10:43 p.m. CST.

[Joel S]

I'm glad it's not just me.  The picture is really terrible.  It must be way over compressed or something.  I'm glad these games are in HD and all but FSN North HD is as bad as it gets.

Since these are road games, I was wondering if FSN is just picking up the  Home teams HD feeds?  Do they do any home games in HD?  The reason I'm asking is that CSN Chicago does all Home Cubs, White Sox, & Bulls games in HD.  I imagine they'll do the 1 home Hawks game they are showing in HD as well.  But they never have the road games in HD.  My thoughts are that, since most other teams broadcasts are done by one of the local FSN networks, that they have no agreement to share the broadcast with CSN, but will share it with other FSN Nets.
While it is great having almost all Bulls home games in HD, I sure wish I could get the road games in HD as well.
