SLUBALLS Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 There's been mulitple people who have noted having issues with the online viewing of SLU events such as soccer. First off, is the soccer game being shown online today? I don't have access at work to check if its listed on CSTV. And secondly, how did people figure out how to get it shown online? I've tried once with no success and never heard back ftom customer service on what the problem could have been. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've tried once with no success and never heard back ftom customer service on what the problem could have been. The game is scheduled to be shown on CBS owned XXL online service (CSTV is no longer) and I plan to watch (GO BILLS!). It is scheduled to be free as well. I feel for you if you have problems. You have to use Internet Exploder 7+, you have to use Microsoft Silverlight 2.0, and you have to navigate their directory which is very slow and often non-responsive. If you go directly from the SLUBILLIKENS.com you will probably have the best long and save yourself the aggravation of trying to navigate their system. I can get it to work but there are often problems. It does have a great variety of program and they have more free programming than ever before(which is a good thing).

SLUBALLS Posted November 25, 2008 Author Share Posted November 25, 2008 Also works for me w/ Firefox. Yea, I use Firefox as well but it didn't work. Downloaded the Silverlight program as well but still no luck. It just comes back saying the content is unavailable. I thought someone noted that you had to maximize some dialog box to get it to show. Anything to that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are Mac users out of luck on this one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NashvilleBilliken Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 If you are trying to watch one of the previous games, it's not going to work. For some reason the on demand stuff isn't working. I've already spoke with them several times about it. i was receiving the same error for the live games. I ended up having to call CSTV and spoke with there customer service. Apparently something happened with my account as it was a few years old. They did something and live content now works. I think there is a customer service number in one of these threads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westy03 Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 The customer service number is 888-870-2788. They were really helpful and got it working for me. The archived games still dont work but all the live games should work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SLUBALLS Posted November 25, 2008 Author Share Posted November 25, 2008 Just called them. They said the viewing is suppose to be free via Indiana's site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLUBALLS Posted November 26, 2008 Author Share Posted November 26, 2008 Just called them. They said the viewing is suppose to be free via Indiana's site. Jesus - freakin - Chr-st...I just get on the viewing site, and we just gave up a stupid ass Ronaldihino-World Cup 1998- type goal where a supposed cross heads in to the back netting because of a total misjudgment by Disbennet. G-ddamn it....this program is freakin snake-bit. Between Politis miskick which led to a goal versus Stanford years ago and Kaufmann miss on Roth's knuckler of a shot two years ago, this just kills me. Only good thing is that the last time we played them at SLU, we came back form 1-0 down. C'mon bills. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brianstl Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 Also, the field looks like crap.The announcers are not the best in the world, but I bet they are not geting paid for this either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bishop Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 I have been watching for 10 minutes and everytime SLU finally earns posession, we just kick it up the left side DIRECTLY at Sarkodie, their best defender... could be a long night if we continue this...

Bishop Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 http://all-access.cbssports.com/player.htm...amp;media=92878 1-0 IU at the half... final comment of the half made by the IU announcing crew, "I dont know if ___ (keepers name) has had to make a save all night."

SLUBALLS Posted November 26, 2008 Author Share Posted November 26, 2008 What happened to Dado? Collision at mid field just before half time. Taken off. 2-0 IU off corner kick. So this is twice now I've gotten back on after getting kicked off and IU scores right as I start watching. Maybe its me then....but then again, if you let a guy run in unmarked into the box and there's good serve, well generally that guy might just get a good head on the ball. There's simply no life in the SLU team in my opinion. Thanks Drake for taking out Patterson. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clock_Tower Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 I am obviously more of a basketball fan than soccer but it is quite obvious that SLU lacked the ability, all season long, to score goals. Long periods of possession but few offensive threats and even fewer goals. Very little room for error when the team hardly scores. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
