So the game will be televised on MC22? I checked their listings for tomorrow night and according to that they're running a high school football replay.

No, that was my bad for confusing the issue. It is not on MC22, but rather Cyclone.tv (on Mediacom). That is HD 798 or digital channel 59-2.

Yeah, my onscreen channel guide since I upgraded to Mediacom's Tivo is useless for determine upcoming cyclone.tv channel programming. I finally caught part of the Pollard special by chance when I happened to flip on the TV in the garage this evening.

Ok, so I don't necessarily need to subscribe to cyclones.tv? If I'm understanding your post, then I already have access to to the game as long as I already have a mediacom subscription.

Has anyone found it on Dish. I know that sometimes these games make it on there. At my parents in rural Iowa, so don't think I will be able to stream on their satellite internet (to slow).

CyTV is Mediacom only. No satellite providers.

Yes, cyclone.tv is part of mediacom's standard channel lineup.

The "old" Mediacom DVRs (pre-TiVo) list all programming information for 798 and 165. Sounds like it's a TiVo thing.

I got this answer from mediacom's forum this morning:

thank you for running this by us! The Tivo units pull their guide date from a different service than our other cable boxes, so it is likely that this information is not properly built in that service. A request to update the line-up can be made here: https://www.tivo.com/lineup.html but we can also bring this forward to our Programming coordinators here as well.

Really wish you could Chromecast off the app.

Yup.. there was no point in me buying the app, since I'm going to have to just chromecast via computer. I hope the stream doesn't suffer. Youtube and Netflix seem to work better when casted from the iPad.

Living in Tx I'm torn as my past experience with CY TV was ****.

I'll gladly pay but I also know I'll never watch after this and canceling these things is a pain...especially if it sucks for quality.

The last game I bought the feed sucked and the camera work was beyond subpar. Not sure if I'm in or not

After the Texas debacle last year, surprised they are doing it again. Oh well, hopefully it works this time

The Texas game was entirely different (a Longhorn Network production that we picked up and added to). Tonight's game will be just like the Toledo game last fall which went off without a hitch.

Will I have issues streaming cy TV in the Cedar Rapids area? I remember hearing about it but never considered it until now. Still showing event hasn't started.

Edit: never mind. Showed start time as 6:20, must have just been running a little behind.

Is there supposed to be a pre-game program? It said it started at 6:20, but right now all I am getting under the game is a video of a Pollard interview.
