Concacaf League comes with the CCL rights package. That's how TSN had it last year. 2 hours ago, narduch said: I think in the end TSN will re up with MLS. One Soccer may take a shot at what DAZN gets If so, they've have to be able to handle multiple streams simultaneously. 3 hours ago, nfitz said: buy a PVR that can record OTA.

Onesoccer is only part of what Mediapro Canada does so I don't think we'll see basketball on Onesoccer. CEBL has no overlap with CSB in ownership terms and would probably want to do their own thing. toontownman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pottsy3 Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 Did anyone catch the Olympic Basketball Qualifiers last night on CBC? DAZN owns the broadcast rights to Canada national men's basketball and FIBA tournaments. CBC hosted the DAZN feed for the game, but CBC was able to have their own in-house panel with Jevohn Shepherd, Dan Shulman, etc. I wonder if there's a possibility that CBC will want to do similar with future OneSoccer broadcasts, being able to tailor the broadcast to their own personalities.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't that how they always did CPL matches? Every time I turned into CBC Sports/CBC Gem, they'd show the One Soccer video feed for the match and include the One Soccer audio commentary but they never showed the One Soccer studio analysis - it was always an in-house CBC thing.

SpursFlu Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 I didn't know CBC showed the game, I watched on DAZN. It gives hope for maybe CBC showing CMNT games but I doubt TSN will. CBC is kinda Switzerland in the whole cable vs streaming battle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They did in year one too. I like Jenkins. Hilariously I didn't even notice until reading this. Long day! Agree on some basic studio work though. Not hard to tape something.

m-g-williams Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 Finally sitting down now to watch the Valour-Wanderers match from last night, and I'm noticing that the digitially projected ads are gone.

But to get several people to come in, do hair and makeup if necessary, camera work, who knows what else, including on the Canada day holiday since there are 2 games then that presumably would need the same treatment, is more than nothing. Maybe they do the slimmed down version for midweek games, and the full production for weekend games. toontownman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kent Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 So today was the first time I watched OneSoccer muted, but it wasn't Wheeler's fault. I was casting from my iPhone to my Chromecast, and the sound was about 5 seconds ahead of the video, causing constant spoilers. The audio tells me the attack has been stopped, just as the attack is getting started at midfield. Just watching the game constantly knowing that no goals are scored in the next five seconds. Thinking "this play will end up in a free kick the other way". I had to mute it to avoid spoilers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Acid-Tone Posted July 2, 2021 Share Posted July 2, 2021 I watched a lot of that York/Pacific game. And man, IMO, the visual production (with the ads) really sucks. I get you have to have the ads for revenue. However, the TV directors insistence that the majority of the game's main camera shots include the full upper portion on the CGI ads (which don't actually have anything on it related to the sponsor of that "space") is incredibly stupid. Hell, most of the time he even left some space above that! Why? Why would you do that. The action is harder to see that way. And it leaves the viewer is left watching a picture that is 10-20% "smaller" than it should be. It's even worse in trying to watch action happening in the 18-yard box, as they also pull the camera view out even further to show more ads in the "end zone". I'm spoiled by watching almost any big or even mid-sized league in the world, and yet somehow they manage to have a much higher basic level of TV production. OneSoccer has a community access TV type vibe to it. Surely, someone else has noticed that this is an issue, no? narduch, NVsoccer, Cheeta and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acid-Tone Posted July 2, 2021 Share Posted July 2, 2021 Nah, I take it back, if it was produced on cable access tv, it's possible that someone working there might know that in soccer you don't have to line up your team in the order of the number on your jersey!

I think the bars who get the games might have a slightly earlier feed than us at home, not sure. In any case, I'm watching Spain put in a long centre in an attack and cheering bursts out from the bars in my neighbourhood. Then they score. Thing is, it is hard to mute my neighbourhood. ray and Kent 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
