    FYI no streams today. The games today are not being televised locally or on TV, you can only possibly watch them on LP without sound/commentators. I asked the Admins about this and they told me during the regular season this wouldn't be an issue since all games are televised, it's just that some pre-season games aren't available.

    I asked about this, it's because it's pre-season and not all games are fully televised. It won't be an issue during the regular-season.

    I chatted with the Admin and here's the chat...

    General help for HockeyStreams and BallStreams, If no one replies, please submit a support ticket.

    3:13pmbs_Meticode
    No streams on NBA today?
    3:13pmbilly
    none are televised
    3:13pmbs_Meticode
    I'm guess it depends on local media since it's pre-season?
    3:13pmbilly
    yep
    3:14pmsteve-0
    a lot of times if a channel has it, its only in local market a lot of the time
    3:15pmbilly
    but tonight, even the local channels dont have it
    3:15pmbs_Meticode
    I'm guessing that probably means LP doesn't even have it
    3:16pmbilly
    LP may have a very poor scoreboard feed
    3:16pmsteve-0
    bs_Meticode might have some but
    3:16pmbilly
    with no announcers
    3:19pmbs_Meticode
    Are those types of games more likely to be streamed during the regular season without issues?
    3:19pmbilly
    yea
    3:19pmbilly
    there's always going to be a feed during the regular season
    3:31pmbs_Meticode
    How do you have access to streams like this? It would seem like you'd need a lot of man power for it I'm just curious how you would stream 10+ games a night from different locations.
    3:31pmbilly
    there is a lot of man power
    3:32pmbs_Meticode
    And you've been doing Hockey like this for years without any issues?
    3:33pmbilly
    yep
    3:36pmbs_Meticode
    Can you explain do me how freezing the account works exactly?
    3:37pmbilly
    say you're subscribed through next october
    3:37pmbilly
    but there's no basketball on between june and september, you can freeze your account for those months so that time doesn't tick away
    3:38pmbs_Meticode
    It's freezing and unfreezing unlimited?
    3:38pmbilly
    it's limited in the sense that once you freeze it, you cant unfreeze it until the time you set comes
    3:38pmbilly
    but you can freeze/refreeze as many times as you want as soon as it unfreezes
    3:39pmbs_Meticode
    So technically couldn't you just buy maybe a 3-month pass, then only watch the 82 games your favorite team plays and keep freezing/unfreezing for the days they play and the days they're off
    3:39pmbilly
    nope
    3:39pmbilly
    the minimum freeze time is 1 week
    3:39pmbilly
    maximum is 3 months
    3:39pmbilly
    (at a time)
    3:40pmbilly
    so you'd miss a couple games a week if you were to do that
    3:41pmbs_Meticode
    Understandable...how long does your year last? Say I buy 1 full year, and at the end of the regular season in April I freeze my account until Say late October of 2014, can I still use it through next season?
    3:41pmbilly
    the memberships are 100% time based
    3:41pmbilly
    so 1 year, is a full 12 months
    3:41pmbilly
    then you can extend it a bit by freezing your account here and there
    3:42pmbs_Meticode
    But you can't go past the 1 year mark of the subscription correct
    3:42pmbilly
    sure you can
    3:42pmbs_Meticode
    Ahhh okay
    3:42pmbs_Meticode
    So tehcnically what I said can be done?
    3:42pmbilly
    not in that micro of a sense, but yes
    3:43pmbilly
    if your team were to play on the same day every week, that could work
    3:44pmbs_Meticode
    Well no, I meant the second thing I mentioned. That I buy 1 year today, then in April I freeze it which would leave me another 5-6 months left, can i unfreeze it for October of 2014
    3:44pmbilly
    yep
    3:44pmbilly
    you'd have to refreeze it re-activates
    3:44pmbilly
    since the maximum freeze time is 3 months at a time
    3:45pmbs_Meticode
    so at the 3 month mark just refreeze it again and that's totally fine?
    3:45pmbilly
    yup
    bs_Meticode

    If this week works out fine I'll probably be getting the 6 month deal on Oct 29 or 30th when the Cavs first game is and that'll last through until end of April, if the Cavs make the playoffs I'll get the 1 more deal afterwards probably. Which will last from late April until end of May. By that time those NBA playoff games Conference Finals or Finals will be national TV ABC I think.

    Are the TNT/ESPN games streamed as well? I'm going to be out of the country and would like to catch those, which LP doesn't offer.

    From speaking with the Admin, he told me every single regular season game will be streamed and playoffs. Some of the pre-season games aren't streamed just because they're pre-season and they aren't televised.
