2012 NFL Week 7 - Television Coverage Maps, NFL ST, etc.

I wonder if Buck will be back Sunday if the Cards beat the Giants tonight.

Edit: Giants stay alive, so there is a game 6.

Watching OTA in Chicago. NBC Sunday Night Football. The sound is awesome as always and picture quality is great! PQ is much better than last weeks game. I am guessing the lighting in Cincy is just better than the game last week.

Also looks and sounds great via Comcast in Elgin.
SNF sound is always the best!

What happened to the NFL threads?

Tebow

Hurricane Sandy, Barack Obama, Mitt Romney, elections, gas shortages, storm surge, 2012, taxes, Aaron Rodgers, discount double check, etc

i have a question about the thanksgiving night game on nbc between the pats and the jets. does it seem like to anybody that the announcers voice was buried in the crowd noise?

i notice regularly on FOX sports that the main game on Sunday is very strong on surrounds that makes the commentators hard to hear when adjusting the overall game level.
Other networks (NBC, etc) weekend games are a much better balance in 5.1.

WNBC-DT NYC FiOS.
Anyone getting distortion on the SNF audio? It happened at 9:24pm and right after the TD. Sounded like the mics or were cutting on and off.

A small gripe on all the NFL broadcasts. It's annoying when the cable came is visible in other camera shots.
The NFL should not allow the cable came to be so low to the field.

I heard the audio breakup as well.

KNTV - San Francisco - Comcast

Heard it here too. Not something you normally hear from NBC... WMTV-Madison OTA

I heard it too. Watching OTA WNBC-DT NY

Also where did the salsa music come from after the Cruz TD? Was that you SNF mixer?

Wow, there is a pulse afterall in these NFL threads.

i just wonder if the mix is incorrect. how are you supposed to hear what the announcer is saying if the surrounds are blasting away.

The mix sounds perfect here, maybe a local station issue?

What about your CBS affiliate? The surrounds are so loud I can barely hear the center channel. Any idea why it would be a local problem and not a national one? Aren't they feeding what is given? If it is a local issue I need to contact them and not the network, but I feel I need to contact someone because it is irritating.

this is exactly the problem i had a while back and i posted about it and couldn't get anyone to respond.

KPIX(CBS) here is awful and we've(local thread) tried to bring it to their attention but it's like talking to a brick wall, there's been no indication that they care. I'm not a TV engineer but it has to do with how they process the audio signal once it has been received from the network. KNTV(NBC) for example has everything set properly and has by far the best dynamic range in the market, KPIX on the other hand has their audio processing set to "everything loud" resulting in a dynamic range of about 2dB. I believe it has a lot to do with the dial-norm and compander settings on the output transmission equipment.

When KNTV(NBC) was having audio issues a few years back they were very responsive and thanked us for our input in helping them correct it, not so with KPIX, just silence from them on the problem.

KPIX - San Francisco contact info,

Have at it, I wish you loads of luck in succeeding where we have have failed so far.

I've found that calling the news desk is often the best way in to the engineering dept, at least it was with KNTV.

I just sent my local affiliate an email with several Cc included. I’m hoping it will increase my odds. We’ll see what happens.

Gray Television here in C’ville broadcasts Fox, CBS, and ABC. The only station with a 5.1 problem is CBS.

Interesting that the problem we both are having is only with CBS.

I see the idiots running the NFL Network channel have the junior high school AV class running their audio on tonight's game, everything is coming out of the rear speakers, game is completely unlistenable.

What's really amazing is at the half they still haven't fixed it.

That's typical NFL Network for you. Total ignorance production value wise which is why I'm really glad no Pats games are on their Thursday night line up this year.

Precisely. The Thanksgiving Thursday night game was a CBS, not an NFLN AV Club production.
They would have stumbled televising the epic Butt6 Bumble!

The Thanksgiving Night Game was on NBC... Started this year..
