Internet Audio

There is a link to CWU announcers about 3 lines down on the page.  It works..I'm listening in AL right now.

What program are you using? I downloaded RealAudio, and it downloaded some new software to play the game, but then it ends up not being able to load it.

Edit: I meant I got RealPlayer and it won't play that program.

Real Player..

Do you pay the $15 for your RealPlayer?

Same here; there may be a user limit that has been reached. I can't connect to the CWU link either.

Try that one.

Real player is free, just be sure not to select any of that superpass garbage.

[UND Fan]

I can not get it. Can anyone give us an update on the game?

[Smoggy]

I performed a test on my internet speed. Tools/Preferences/Connection. I ended up having to change my speed. I then used the link that Florence provided (though I believe it's the same as on the fb homepage). Anyways, now it works.

CWU just missed a field goal after intercepting a pass.

The announcers aren't too good...didn't mention a score, or time left in quarter/half

[FlorenceFan]

0-0, end of 1st quarter

[Smoggy]

I started a new topic for the game updates.

[sprig]

Busy server message for me. Post updates as you have time please.

[star2city]

Thanks ForenceFan!! Your link worked.

Score: 0-0 at end of 1st

Time of possesion: CWU 9 minutes , UND 6

[U2Bad1]

Ha-They are streaming the wrong station!! DOH!

Amazing, can't they find some PC literate student to solve these problems.

[SiouxMeNow]

maybe clearchannel is trying to squeeze a few bucks out of this....the prececent has been set!!!...gimme an R...gimme an E...gimme an A!! This should have been a lot easier given the alumni Assoc. reaction to hundreds of e-mails....I'll get back to you with the real deal...(hopefully NOT on the CWU radion station...)

UND football games now available via internet audiocast

9/13/2004

GRAND FORKS, N.D.--Radio broadcasts of UND football games can be heard on www.fightingsioux.com beginning with UND's Sept. 25 game at Augustana.

Mark Rudolph, University of North Dakota Assistant Athletic Director, issued the following statement regarding UND's football audiocast service:

Dear Fans,

Because of technical difficulties with our programming, we were not able to provide you a link to our first three home football games. We apologize for this inconvenience. We have made the necessary adjustments and will be providing audio gameday internet broadcasting for the remainder of the football season, starting with the Augustana game on Saturday, Sept. 25.

Please join us for the same coverage during our men's hockey and men's and women's basketball games.

Thank you for your patience.

Sincerely,

Mark R. Rudolph

Assistant Athletic Director

Fighting Sioux Club Director

Techanical dificulties makes it sound like faulty equipment and not that they didn't have a person to run it. There was a nice long summer to fix faulty equipment.

I sure hope this wasn't a "let's see if they'll buy dataflix instead" ploy.

[DamStrait]

Does everything really need to be a conspiracy?

[Canuck]

DamStrait...THANK YOU! A voice of reason is a lovely thing on this board.

I tried to pose the same question earlier and got slammed! But then, apparently I was just seeking another argument because you and I had a difference of opinion on the netting at REA.

[sprig]

Does everything really need to be a conspiracy?

A Gopher conspiracy, no doubt

[CoteauRinkRat]

Does everything really need to be a conspiracy?

I don't think its a conspiracy I would just like to know why we aren't getting any strait answers. Go down the line and look at every small college in Nodak, I think you will find that they have free audio for their games. I would be very surprised if any school that same size as UND didn't offer it.

[sprig]

Don't look now, but NDSU, this year, changed their internet audio to a "pay for" service. Of course they are D1

[CoteauRinkRat]

as you can see, I said offer the service, I didn't mean for free. If someone just wants the audio, they should at least be able to purchase that.

[NDSU grad]

Alot of Bison fans raised a stink about charging for the internet, but I didn't mind at all. It was horrible last year, buffering about every five minutes and reaching server capacity so you couldn't log on at all. I've only listened to the Valpo game this year but in three quarters of listening it buffered only once, so it seems like they actually did spend money in upgrading the server. I've never seen dataflix, but from reading the posts it sounds pretty worthless, is that correct?

It's good when it works well.

Seemed they had the bugs worked out last season and many who paid for it got good results.

There have been lots of problems with it starting out this year, however.

[Hansel]

I actually ordered Dataflix for the NDSU/UND basketball games last year- it wasn't like watching on TV but it only bufferred a few times and I would order it again if the oppurtunity arose. During halftime of the BB game however they piped in the UND/Wisconsin hockey game- and I thought the video quality of the BB game was much better than that of the hockey game- probably because of the setup they have in the Ralph. Now, if I can only get off the REA mailing list- they send me about 3 emails a week and there is no way to "unsubscribe" they have text which says click here to unsubscribe but it is not an operable link
