Mosconi Cup on the Net or T.V.
- Thread starter Scherf
- Start date
There are several threads about this very topic. I think the general consensus is that, yes, we will be able to watch the Mosconi Cup on our computers via ESPN-3, much like last year. I watched ESPN-3 on my computer via my Comcast connection last year. The ESPN-3 was not on my TV, though. It only came through on my computer. I'm not quite sure how or why that is.
If you have one of those super-duper television tuners, you can watch it on TV via your computer. :happydance::happydance::happydance:
Don't worry. Right before the event, there will be many posts with links, directing us where to go to see it live. I think it's going to be a blast!
I have a Roku to watch Netflix on my HD TV and Roku just added the ESPN channels including ESPN3 to users who have ESPN in their normal cable channels. I have Comcast in my area.
I am looking forward to watching the mosconi cup on my large HD screen this year using my Roku and ESPN3.
Maybe this information will help others who use the Roku.

Actually, all you need is 2 cables (video & audio) to get it on your tv. Depending on your laptop and TV, that dictates what cables you need. You could take your laptop to Best Buy or Radio Shack if you're unsure. Bring your tv model # written down. It'll run you somewhere from $30 - $75 depending on quality of cables. I dropped $40 and it looks/sounds great.
Then load the feed on your laptop, click and hold "Fn" and then the F button with crt/lcd written on it. F buttons may very, but once you know, it's truly a walk in the park. Watching on a nice flat screen vs a computer is such a difference!
Then you can stream Hulu or whatever and drop cable, lol.
Hope that helps.
The Mosconi Cup will be live on Fox Soccer Plus for the first 3 hours each day - http://www.foxsoccerplus.com/images/schedules/week 49-december13-fsp-clean.pdf
For the final 2 live hours each day, they will switch over to Fox Sports 2 (used to be FuelTV). Fox Sports 2 is pretty widely available on most cable packages, but Fox Soccer Plus is a subscription channel for $14.95 per month. It also looks like they've got full replays on Fox Soccer Plus each night.

Sounds Greek to me, but thanks so much for the explanation on how ot make it happen. We do have a Best Buy nearby, so I might check into that. Great idea!
Matt, this is all Chinese to me but I'm going to dig up a friend to do this for me. After it's done would I be able to record it?
I would think you could record, but surely someone here that's more tech savy will chime in.
Connecting is just as easy as hooking up a DVD or (in your case
) a VCR. Then you have to "tell your computer and TV" to talk to each other with a couple simple clicks.
It is on Skysport 2 on next Monday

Presumably it can be viewed on these sources

If you can't find it, as an alternative, look for the UK Snooker Championship
Hook your computer to a HD TV for a much better picture.

Don't bother writing down your model number, unless its a last resort.
Better to take the manual from the TV if you have it. Or take a photo of the back of the TV with your phone, and bring that with you when you come in for your cable hookup.

Yes, 1 HDMI is the best. Assuming that A) your laptop has it, and B) the customer knows what HDMI is, and how to locate it on their laptop. Believe me, its not as simple as it sounds, many times. Borders on rocket science for some...
This is the word I got too, Fox Sports 2.
Unfortunately, Fox Sports 2 only works with Direct TV. If you have Comcast, like me, there is no Fox Sports 2.
The only thing we can hope for is that they will do the same as last year and show it on ESPN-3. If that happens, we're in like Flynn if you have Comcast.
