[KyL416]

In addition to the BTN and Revolt changes, the MLS Season Pass channels have been hidden for the off-season

WLAE/32 is now live for New Orleans

9756 PPGEM - Protection Plan Gemini Offer is now live

An internet delivered i24 News is testing

Found something interesting in that analysis, what I assume is the i24 stream test channel (*DTV/9813) has no Notes0, and says "<<Parsing of the object aborted!>>" for its Notes1. Seems like that's from the equipment you guys are using to generate the analyses rather than some kind of mess-up made on DirecTV's end. Just thought I'd mention it as I've never seen that before on any other analysis I've looked at.

Just so I'm keeping all this straight (from previous posts back in Sept) - so i24 will switch from being delivered from a 3rd party server, to delivery directly from DTV servers, correct? Which means it will then be removed from all non-Genie receiver guides?
And it's being added to DTV stream as well?

Weekly Analysis for 12/18/2024:

 

[KyL416]

Revolt completed its move to channel 334

Cleanup of the ku-offline Houston locals from portions of the Waco DMA

College Football Playoff Mix rename

Willow Xtra is now a full time channel

Scientology moved from D11 to D12

9755 GIFT ($20 credits for 6 months) and 9759 GEMINI have been removed
9757 *GIFT (League Pass On Us) and 9758 *NETFLIX (Netflix Premium offer) are testing

 

[PioneerDJ]

The latest analysis could indicate DirecTV has no deal with Netflix or EverPass to distribute the 2 NFL Christmas day games to commercial accounts, otherwise they would have been on channels 9539 and 9538 (my guess)

 

[KyL416]

The thing is, is it worth it for them to strike a deal? Most locally owned bars and national chains will be closed on Christmas, so it will mostly be a Casino/Sportsbook and airport bar only thing. The major sportsbooks likely already support EverPass's UPshow for Peacock Sports Pass. The hotel chains that have in room streaming usually have you login to your own account and then automatically wipe your login data after you checkout.

Any news on any more channels coming to the DTV App like H&I? Thanks.

And the 2 games themselves are charged as a PPV only to casinos and sportsbooks (cost possibly in the thousands or tens of thousands per casino) that already subscribed to Peacock Sports Pass, while the games are complimentary to all other Everpass business accounts
