Question about EweTube TV, NFL Network, and TvOS 27

About three weeks ago I upgraded my ATV 4K to tvOS27. I usually record football games to my EweTubeTV "cloud DVR", then watch the games a day later so I can skip the commercials. Anymore the picture quality is terrible, colors are off and a lot of "blocking". I did note that Fox and NBC both use their own feeds, while on CBS there's an "NFL Network" logo in the upper-right corner; same issue with all of them. But now today I noticed that when I used my OTA feed into my TV, the picture was glorious on Fox and NBC (no CBS games tonight, so I couldn't test that, and no OTA NFL channel so I can't test that either).

The odd thing is, though, is that the news programs I normally watch (again, recorded via YTTV) also look fine, it's just football games that look gnarly.

Anyone else seeing this? And I don't remember seeing this issue before I upgraded to OS 27. :confused:
 
Okay, figured it out. Last night's MNF (Bills and Rams) was broadcast on ABC, but the "NFL Network" logo also showed on the screen. Picture looked like ass thru the Apple TV/YTTV, on both ABC and NFL Network. Game looked great OTA, so it's not something wrong with the NFL Network. And my usual news/nature/documentaries look just fine thru the Apple TV/OS 27, so there must be something wrong when YTTV broadcasts a football game. I'm surprised I haven't heard anyone else complain about this (frustrating that it's the one thing in the chain I'm paying for monthly). :mad:
 
Is that a separate app that you download to your ATV? I'll give that a try if it is.
Yes. You can either subscribe to their stand alone service or use your login credentials to an existing subscription that includes ESPN.
 
Chris, I owe you a beer a case! :drinkingbeer:

When I first got my iPhone (SE v2) I had a devil of a time ever installing apps onto it; I finally figured out the touch sensor, I needed to just touch it for my fingerprint to authorize/purchase; if I pressed it it would send the phone back to the main page.
Well, in the ensuing years, I had forgotten that, and it took me over a day to install the NFL Network app, but I finally did. Tonight's ThNF game is (ironically) the same Bills/Rams game I mentioned in my OP/Sunday. It's recorded, clear as a bell, and I can FF thru the hot tub/tampon/truck commercials, Yay!

And, does the NFL not do "Thursday Night Football" anymore? There's a game on now, but it happened last Sunday....?
