ROKU, to see every game.

[CL82]

It is puzzling that SNY does not post replays of their games on YouTube as it would be another money maker

How so? Essentially they'd be giving away their content for free.

 

[Blond D.]

You have seen SNY content replayed on FoxSports? Maybe they lied to me when they said that they can't do that. (?)

I can't get anything on SNY except them telling me I'm out of the viewing area

 

[Centerstream]

So, I don't know this from firsthand experience, because I switched to Hulu live to be able to keep SNY, but apparently SNY has an app that allows you to access their content:

Key elements of the SNY App include:

• 24/7 live stream of the network for users who authenticate through their television provider.
• Live games – including the Network’s Emmy Award winning Mets pre-game and Mets post-game shows, Mets games with Gary Cohen, Keith Hernandez, Ron Darling and Steve Gelbs, regarded as the best broadcast booth in baseball
• Exclusive Jets pre- and post-game shows
• UConn Women’s basketball games as well as pre- and post-game shows
• SNY’s Daily Live Programs - including Carton & Roberts, Baseball Night in New York and GEICO SportsNite
• Breaking news and press conferences
• Game Highlights
• Video Library – a robust video library that includes SNY original programming, digital series, documentaries, classic games and more

The nice thing about the app, apparently, is that it also includes the excellent pregame and pregame shows as well as other SNY UConn content like the Geno Auriemma show. The app can be downloaded from wherever you're getting your apps now, either the iPhone store or Google play.

I hope this helps.

Just to be clear. The only people that have access to the SNY app are subscribers to SNY via their tv provider, like you.
So if are an SNY subscriber and are traveling, then you can use the SNY app to watch SNY content.

What state do you live in?

Why would that matter? I will say that I don't live in the SNY viewing area.

YouTube videos can be monetized and creators are paid by the likes and view they get. Every dollar the YouTube would pay SNY is one more than they are making now.

If you got Fox Sports just check the area called REPLAYS and most of the time it will be there a day or two after the game.
If you have UCONN+ it will just show the highlights.

Everyone can get UCONN+

Audio replay of the Marquette game

For all the people, that keep posting, I can't see any UCONN games. Spend $25.00, get a ROKU, and you can see every game, either on the Uconn Net, or Fox Sports. No monthly fees, just plug it into your tv. I do not miss a game. I don't want to read, "I can't see any Uconn games", LOL.....

I'm one of those who keeping complaining that I can't watch SNY on Fox anymore (though last game I was surprised to find Fox stream a couple of minutes of the game before the "Not Available For Streaming" notice shut it down). I've known a few romances that followed the same pattern. BUT if I watch everything on my PC and don't even have my TV connected, how could Roku make the games available on my PC? You could extend an old man's life expectancy with a "that's easy . . ." HELP.

 

[Centerstream]

One game definitely was replayed the next day on the Fox Sports app, I watched it.
If I was to guess, I think it was the game at St.John’s.

I was wrong. The game that was available on the Fox Sports app was the Seton Hall game. I did post that day here on the BY that it was available.

First you need to know why streaming is not available to you on your tv. Is it your location? Odds are if it doesn't work when your Roku is connected to your tv, then I would guess that it wouldn't work when connected to your PC.
But to answer your question...use your PC to Google: can I connect a roku to my computer. Your results should return many answers.

 

[Sonofabeach]

I usually use a car to change my location. It works pretty well for me.

Fox use allows a few minutes of free time before you have to log i with a code from your cable provider. Spectrum will text me a code I have to enter to my Roku, then I can see the full game. Our cable package has Fox and FS1 which, I believe, is required in order to get the code.

Thanks. I'm having Roku set up, hopefully so I can watch the games on my PC. I'm told it can happen. It's pretty amazing how much trouble (and potential expense) our loyal minions are willing to go to in order to watch our girls. SNY or someone really needs to offer a broader range of availability to UConn fans, et al. This has been tough and isn't yet resolved (for me).
As for this "code," I've been asked to sign in to my Hulu account but nothing about asking for a code. Is it a word, a number, what?
Thanks.

It’s a number. I use the FoxSports app thru the Roku

 

[Bone Dog]

For me, on my Roku device (watching from Santa Fe and connected via a non-smart TV), the FoxSports app asks me to select my cable provider from a list displayed on screen. My "cable provider" is YouTubeTV (which they accept), and if I'm already signed into the YouTubeTV app at that moment, the FoxSports app signs me in automatically.

Once, I had to get a code in order to sign in to YouTubeTV, and this consisted of a QR image that appeared on the TV screen which I aimed my Iphone's camera at and it produced a link that led to a code that I entered into my Roku remote for the TV. The FoxSports app then signed me in automatically a moment later.

I'm going to disagree with you. I find it amazing that SNY arranged a deal with Fox Sports to livestream their UConn WBB (and I am assuming MBB) games...and for free. That makes SNY available to anyone that has a tv provider that includes their local Fox station and FS1 as part of their viewing package. I am guessing that this is a vast majority of UConn fans.
Unfortunately, and I have no idea why, viewers that live in the SNY viewing area and their tv provider doesn't offer SNY may not be able to stream the games.
Now, if we want to discuss SNY replays, that's an entirely different subject/thread.
Regardless, I wish you luck with getting your Roku setup on either your tv and/or PC.

 

[Bone Dog]

I think this is about local ad revenue. The contract with Fox is a revenue stream. But local area cable providers who don't carry NY aren't providing any revenue, and unless SNY has the capability to provide streaming independent of cable providers, may even be reducing the size/value of the over-the-air market they use to attract advertisers or the value of the contacts they have with cable providers who do carry them. Of courses, as with NFL blackouts, the assumption is everyone in the area theoretically can receive the broadcasts over the air (i.e.rabbit ears) even if some areas can't receive them even that way.

 

[Urshurak]

I guess I’m a Unicorn. I use a Chromecast. Put the Fox Sports App on my phone. Sign into fox sports with my tv provider (Hulu Tv, used to have YouTube tv.)

Bam o Wham o - UConn games fire right up at game time and I cast it to my TV.

 

[Redux]

I don't think anyone really knows yet the reason why it works for some and won't for others

At some point I gave up with the inconsistency from one game to the next (or games suddenly going away in the middle) and made arrangements to view the games via "magical means" as they say. But then the official way started working every time, a total mystery. I think something happens to the way your internet signal is routed, congestion or something causes your location to get mangled. When I would lose a game in progress sometimes rebooting everything would bring it back. But lately for whatever reason all is well with no voodoo.

It's because you have hulutv. Sny has a contract with them for UConn games. You don't even need to go through fox sports. Just use the hulu app and click on the SNY channel.

 

[TB12]

I live in MA and watch the games on the Fox App on my TV. Games are not replayed like Fox did a couple of years ago. You also cannot rewind the game, or restart. To see a replay you must go to Youtube as it shows up in a few hours , or the next morning, mostly posted by our Boneyard guy.

Also I subscribe to Uzzu tv. They show much of the Major sports, (MLB, NFL, NBA, NHL and SNY. All content is only live for SNY, but I can watch pregame, post game and the Geno Shows. You can go to Uzzu.tv.com to download their app and subscribe
At least one other Boneyarder Uses Uzzu tv as I learned about it here a little over 2 years ago. They show the entire UConn SNY game slate and all the UConn content

My parents are trying to figure out UCONN+ on the Roku. Is it audio only?

thanks. the original poster made it sound like they could watch the games on roku... I guess I was mistaken? Or am I missing something?

If you have cable with Fox or a streaming service with Fox, you can use the FoxSports app to watch the game. If I were you, I’d go to the FoxSports app on the Roku at 7:30 and try, even if you don’t have Fox. sometimes they give you a free hour before asking for login credentials
