Why is the NJ Devil's hockey game not on MSG+2 right now?
I have the same question. I'm getting the MSG feed on MSG+2, so I'm seeing the Rangers and not the Devils. Called technical support and they didn't know what the problem was, but mentioned they're getting multiple calls about it. This is a major screwup by FIOS.
After an hour of trying to get an answer by phone or online, I found it with the awkward FIOS search menu. it is on a non-HD channel, channel 81. It would have been nice for FIOS to put a message on-screen saying where to find the game. Shame on you FIOS.
Still nothing for NYC? The Devils have two games on MSG+2 next week.
Tonight Devils feed of the NYR-NJ game is only available in SD on channel 81. Outside of the NY region, the Devils HD feed is on GAMEHD 6, channel 1471.
Thursday's NJ-CAR game is on channel 81 only in SD, but outside of NY is on NHL Network in HD.
If anyone is looking for the Islanders in HD tonight, I just heard that the game is also being shown on WLNY. Maybe the Plus2 HD channel will finally be added after 20 HD channels are switched over to MPEG-4 this month.
Found this thread and figured this is the place. I find it a bit ridiculous that Fios does not carry MSG+2 in HD. It is the only local providor that does not do so. Both Cablevision and Time Warner have this channel in HD.
With the increased popularity of streaming media one of the few reasons I still subscribe to cable is easy access to local sports teams. I would love to hear a reason why only Fios does not give you a local sports channel in HD.
Well, it's now 2016 and still a winning major league professional sports team's broadcast is only available in SD on FIOS. Any update?
