I live in Davidson up around LKN. WSOC on Directv is marked as showing soccer so I was trying to record the game off of nfln (like an idiot) since I had a couple things to do this afternoon. Tried to pull up the recording and it’s blacked out- turns out the soccer game is really the panthers game!

And soccer is on now.

Every year, they show the game on the local channel, but it doesn't show up in the guide.  Not sure why, but I am watching it on WFMY right now.

Depends on the network, and which service you're looking at. There are three(?) major TV listing providers that each power different systems -- which is why Comcast's guide may be different from Spectrum's or Dish, as an example.  If the station didn't provide their data to the listing providers in a timely manner, their local-specific info won't show in the guide.

For at least one of those services, it's a minimum 24 hr turnaround for them to distribute updates (and with that, no guarantee the update will be pushed to all devices by then).  So it's not like the station can provide updates in near real-time.

It sounds like a WSOC issue.

From what I've read this afternoon from various sources, it's not WSOC's fault, but rather an issue with the signal that they were receiving to send out. 

If the feed coming in to the station is wonky, then the station has no way to fix it by themselves.

Had this issue as well. Unlikely you missed much though if you had actually recorded as my feed was crummy for half the game and went out multiple times. They only had it fixed finally in the third quarter.

I watched it on WFMY in Greensboro, seemed fine.  Wouldn't they have the same feed?

Each TV station has a receiver that needs to be uniquely licensed to receive a game's satellite signal. 

If the license is misconfigured at either end (or a legit issue with the transmitter not encoding against that particular license successfully), then there can be issues with the station receiving  a clean feed.

Need a little help.....working with friend in rock hill who has Comcast to get fed via firestick.

I've been told all I need is his user name and password to tap into his account and can view anything on his local channels. I'm assuming this is true but I hear CBS has a fee to accomplish this.

The Panthers are usually on Fox here in Va. and i would assume its the case in NC/SC but just want to be prepared if the game ends up on CBS.

Any advice would be helpful.......just grew tired of the cost of Direct TV.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
