In the game just started the volleyball is streaming perfectly for me but no sound. Big Sky TV on my phone has sound but the picture froze up Watching on roku for a bit now. Sound came on but with the sound came some splotches once in awhile not pixelation but something else and the HD picture quality is in and out. Edit: I've watched only last season's football reruns and some live volleyball on Roku and hadn't had a problem before but the volleyball is not working well on Roku today. At the same time it's working perfectly on Big Sky TV Quote

UNDBIZ Posted September 30, 2017 Posted September 30, 2017 Seems like when the audio drops out the picture is really good, but when the audio kicks back in the video goes to hell. Quote

Expand Same for me. Since it's streaming well on computer with Big Sky TV right now it must be something through Roku. Will be checking tonight for the end of the football game after getting home from hockey Quote
sprig Posted September 30, 2017 Posted September 30, 2017 Of the four big sky games that have started, one is streaming well (NAU) while the other three are hd but I'm getting the occasional splotchiness. Not enough to make me give up on roku but not perfect. Quote
fightingsioux4life Posted October 2, 2017 Posted October 2, 2017 Will the UND@UAA hockey games this weekend be picked up by Midco? They have done that in the past. Quote
