    MLB.TV not working on the new Apple TV at the moment. Not a big deal on the first day of spring training but it's something they really should have had sorted out.

    A good few unhappy posts on the MLB.TV forum.

    EDIT - Fixed now

    Only about a week into Spring Training and I've already had enough of those "Express Written Consent" ads/skits (or whatever they're supposed to be). What's their point?

    The updated app for the new Apple TV is there now. Seems like a nice update. You can now watch 2 games at once like you can do on a computer.

    The quality of the picture on the new Apple TV now that they've turned on the HD for the regular season is amazing.

    Lads, do any of you have Sky broadband for MLB.tv? Just wondering what the quality is like. I'm with Virgin at the moment and it's perfect quality but I'm moving from them and don't want to sign up to Sky or Eir and find the quality's rubbish.

    I have Eir and it's just as good as when I had UPC

    What part of the world are you in by the way?

    Sorry for all the questions but have you ever had MLB.Tv on, someone else streaming from netflix and someone surfing the net on the phone etc? In other words can it handle multiple devices doing all sorts of stuff? What speeds are you getting by the way?

    Thanks.

    Anyone use the At-Bat app on the iPhone? If so, have you had any issues if you updated to iOS 10? After a period of inactivity on the app, I have to re login and then select my favourite team and notification preferences. This never happened before and is a bit of a pain.

    Had to do the same except that I use the At-Bat app on a daily basis to check scores, news etc. It asked me last week to relogin etc. No issue with the iPad version strangely.

    I got onto their Support and they advised to uninstall/reinstall the app and that seems to have worked so far.

    Anyone know if there is a way to watch on-demand games with the ad pauses removed? Is there a setting or something or does one have to forward through them. Would be nice to watch without waiting 2/3 minutes between each half inning.

    Thinking of shelling out for MLB TV. I'm assuming that it'll work no problem with my laptop but apps on Xbox One/PS4 are region locked?

    Probaby is on MLB Network. I don't know though to be honest as I've never been able to watch the channel.

    Anyone else sick to death of the “During this break in the action......” clips they show in between innings? They just keep repeating the same ones over and over again. Give me silence and the blue screen/MLB logo anytime.

    I dont pay for MLB Tv, is it worth it? I find the coverage on BT/ESPN alright in general and I get to see a large proportion of the decent games that way.

    I think it is and I wouldn’t be one who stays up for the midnight games too often.

    The main advantage is that you can see your team as opposed to whatever BT have on. As an added bonus you can pick the feed too and as I quite like the Mets crew, it’s nice to be able to do that. I don’t know if I could listen to FP Santangilo on the Nats broadcast every night though...!!!

    Having access to games on your mobile is great too, especially when I wake up at 2:30 in the morning and try and sneak in the last inning or two without waking up my wife.

    The biggest downfall is the slight delay so you have to turn off Twitter if you don’t want the outcome ruined. There’s no MLB Network either which is a pity.

    But $142 for 2430 regular season games and all of the playoffs is great value.

    it represents value for sure

    Up until last season I had ESPN/BT Sports for years and there was always enough games on especially over the weekend. But when Virgin Media pulled the plug on BT Sports I had to look for other options. The free game of the day is not always ideal but because I was a viewer of said games MLB sent me a 50% discount link towards the end of April. I didn't renew this season but intended to once MLB sent me out another discount which I got about a week ago. This was discount was for 35% so I went ahead renewed.

    As Jack mentions it's great value for what you get. Even better if you can get the subscription for a discount :)

    I find MLB TV superb and great value for money with some pretty nifty features

    Living in Ireland means You're always out of Market and can watch any game. My daughter was a dreadful sleeper. I'd often find myself wide awake at 3/4 in the morning so it was great to be able to take in a West coast game

    Quick question, probably answered already

    Is MLB TV available for the PS4 here in Ireland ?

    I have used the url https://store.playstation.com/en-us/product/UP0181-CUSA01974_00-MLBTVPS4US000001 from a regular web browser to try to and get it but it redirects to the Irish url "en-ie" and say it cannot be found

    No offers received yet this year, anyone else get the 50% off deal?
    I'm tempted to just go ahead and purchase now even though it looks like being a horrible year for the dodgers.

    If you setup a US profile on the PS4 you can download the MLB app, just use a zip code like NY 100001, once downloaded under that profile you can make the app available to all profiles on the PS4. This is what I did a few years back and have had no issues since, well I didn't renew this year so can't talk about this season :P
