STRETCH INTERNET - WMTRIBE75 - 02-17-2018 11:58 AM

I believe that some on the boards were complaining during the Hofstra game about not being able to get the video feed. I kept getting the same message as others, that the stream was not available, and I just finally gave up and listened to Jay on the internet ( I live in Chesapeake so I have to listen to the game on 92.3 on my Tune In Radio app).

The last time that I watched video was last Thursday against Charleston but it kept buffering and I just stopped. But Thursday night, I could not even get the stream. Just for grins, I tried to stream the other CAA games that night, but got the same result. I tried to test it again last night, for the Women.s game, and once again got the "stream not available" message.

Does anyone know if there has been a change that is creating this problem? After today I guess that it will not matter for me because the last two games are at home and I am going to the tournament, but it is really aggravating. We are totally an Apple home, with desktop, laptop, IPad and cell phone all Apple. I also have Apple TV on which I have successfully streamed several games in the past from my IPad. But Thursday, nothing worked. I am thinking that Stretch just does not like Safari anymore.

I have windows on my Apple desktop also but I really have no desire to use internet explorer on my home computer. i was just wondering if others were suddenly having issues.

I was able to watch the Hofstra game on CAA.tv on my Roku. I don't know if AppleTV has an app for that or not, but I had no issues at all.

It seemed to be a Chrome issue. When I switched to Firefox, it worked fine. It will be interesting to see if it works okay today.

The guy that runs the stretch internet stream for JMU (Curt Dudley) said to clear your history cache and it should fix the problem.

By the way, kudos to NU. Their stream was very clear yesterday, had no buffering all game and the announcers were not true homers.
I could never sync up Jay & Kris, so it was a good way to watch.
Hopefully, TribeTV will have the buffering thing fixed for Thursday.

I was having several issues prior to the Hofstra game. I agree with JMUDukes20. I did this before that game just to try and fix it (I use Firefox) and had zero issues during the Hofstra game.
