re: So, let's have a frank discussion about Tiger Vision video quality...

The edges were blurry if you tried to make the video feed full screen. When I viewed it in standard resolution it was fine, but when I changed to the "zoom" feature to get rid of those annoying black bars is screwed up the edges for me.
The announcers were so backasswards it was amazing. They called the wrong name/number combo at least 30 times and got down and distance wrong another dozen. My wife was ridiculing them. It's like they were seated in the West Upper with no binoculars.

I found nothing wrong with the picture quality on tiger vision this time.
20X better than KLAX before they went HD. No one complained at my house, and we has 10 adults. Sudden Link Cable.

787 PPV should have been only in Louisiana. Everyone outside of LA should have paid $25 with Gameplan on 788. But no guarantee that DirectTV coded it correctly so may have allowed people to order both ways.

I agree the video feed was awful...it looked like file footage from a documentary about a game 30yrs ago...
The announcers are several steps passed god-awful...the earlier poster who said the play-by-play guy lacked football knowledge was dead on...he didn't even realize the ball is spotted on the 25 after kick-off touch backs...
It was barely worth my $25...I taped it and only watched it live periodically...I will re-watch when I can fast forward through the commentary...

I noticed that some of the close-ups looked HD. Anything further out looked horrible.
I would guess they were using 3 or 4 HD cameras and the rest were all outdated standard camera equipment. (Just talking out of my arse)
ETA: 787 was the PPV for in-state (LA).
788 was the ESPNgameplan. You could pay $25 and get ESPNgameplan for the entire day (they showed the vandy game and a few others), but the LSU game was supposed to be blacked out for residents of LA and ID

Yes the picture did & will continue to suck until they fix this:
I will not spend my money on a game that is NOT broadcast in HD. But I gotta believe they are working to correct this problem, so they can take my & those of us who will not purchase this crap.
I did watch via ESPN3 & Comcast on my iPad (For FREE) and had no complaints. Picture was pretty good for the most part only a few times the picture went to absolute poop for a short amount of time.

11. Will TigerVision be offered in High Definition? A. No. The broadcast is in standard definition at a 16:9 ratio.

I liked it. It was nostalgic. I felt like it was the '80's and I was back at my parents house watching the game on their old Zenith tube TV.

They broadcast with standard definition and are probably old to boot. They only get one game a year and probably isn't cost beneficial to upgrade the system for that one game.
Give me a break. HD Cameras are not that expensive and hardly out of reach for this.

...I watched the CST (Cox Sports) replay last night , and the video was HD quality, and looked great. Why can't the TigerVision people use or piggy back on CST somehow ? ... 
Posted on 9/17/12 at 11:13 am to Chicken
I have no idea where the answer sits in regards to a shitty picture because I watched the game (and other games) on ESPN3 on my iPad and the picture quality was equally as good for the LSU game as it was for all of the other games....now the 2 people broadcasting the LSU game, that's another story!
Posted on 9/17/12 at 11:15 am to Chicken
It was better than last season.
Posted on 9/17/12 at 11:15 am to Chicken
TigerVision does not supply an HD signal (or an SD signal for that matter)so it will always look terrible. That's also why you see no highlights from a TigerVision game. Nobody is going to broadcast that shite.
Posted on 9/17/12 at 11:36 am to Chicken
It's one of those things that ties into so many other "gripes" about LSU...people keep spending why should LSU dish out cash to upgrade?
