Kintamayama 45,504 Posted January 13, 2015 I am getting clean uninterrupted sumo coverage on Niji on the lowest channel choice in its listing (the one below J Sport). The NHK choice is crap. Hell's bells-I missed this!! Thanks!! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Asojima 2,874 Posted January 13, 2015 I only found it because I was checking other channels to see if they were as bad as the normal NHK choice. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bettega 431 Posted January 13, 2015 I guess it's my problem then. I couldn't get Niji to work for more than 10 minutes without it looping into what was on 5 minutes before. I think the problem is somewhere with the VLC, as without using it niji works OK. But on day 1 everything was fine.. Nope, I don't think so. NIJI was completely unwatchable today.

sesom 55 Posted January 13, 2015 As already mentioned by others, just choose the lowest channel in the list. I had an uninterupted high-quality stream today! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't know what this is... It is a standalone windows/mac app that lets you watch several Japanese TV channels free. It can be downloaded here . After download, it can be activated by providing a legitimate Email address and a password. Don't use your regular password for the Email account. Come up with something unique. The program (including the login dialog) is in Japanese, but there are enough symbols to figure out most of it if you aren't fluent. If you need some help getting it going, give a yell here. Edit: After your initial setup and login, you may need to reboot your computer to get Niji to work. Edited January 13, 2015 by Asojima 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tenshinhan 1,612 Posted January 13, 2015 (edited) Ok I will try this. Thanks a lot for your answer. Edit: At the moment it works. Now I am excited about tomorrow morning... Edited January 13, 2015 by Tenshinhan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
orandashoho 720 Posted January 13, 2015 When I try to download, my antivirus protection blocks it because (according to them) it "contains viruses, spyware, and other potentially unwanted programs". I guess I am going to give it a miss. Live streaming is less useful to me because I won't be able view anything during working hours Central European Time... I'll just stick with Kintamayama's excellent videos, although the thought of being able to watch the lower division matches was appealing. Oh well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Asojima 2,874 Posted January 13, 2015 ...., although the thought of being able to watch the lower division matches was appealingThe NHK broadcast on Niji only provides makuuchi and sometimes about 1/2 of the juryo coverage. The lower divisions are only available on Ustream PPV and some other for-pay systems. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Asojima 2,874 Posted January 14, 2015 (edited) Day 4 - Juryo coverage has started on both of the Niji channels used last night. The NHK channel is running about 1 minute behind the new channel. Since about noon JST, the NHK site has had some intermittent looping sessions. The new channel has been uninterrupted all day.

sumodrax 8 Posted January 14, 2015 Great disturbances in the force right now for Niji....But hopefully it will be better ASAP!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Akinomaki 40,760 Posted January 14, 2015 Day 4 - Juryo coverage has started on both of the Niji channels used last night. The NHK channel is running about 1 minute behind the new channel. Since about noon JST, the NHK site has had some intermittent looping sessions. The new channel has been uninterrupted all day. But the "No signal" screen is annoying as well. Then changing to real NHK you have to watch the same 2 minutes again to then watch the part missing on the Kansai-TV-NHK, but in the meantime this NHK2 is of course advanced further and you can only switch back when a longer break comes up - luckily the news came up just when it happened the 3rd time. If wide-screen NHK in the meantime loops or falters you miss that part for good - if lucky you find it later in the buffered recording. NHK2 has more minutes recorded in the buffer when the recording stops, but also the worse sound. Each change of channel means a restart of the VLC recording. I watch it while preparing my whole day (and the next) and don't like to interrupt that every few minutes. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sumodrax 8 Posted January 15, 2015 (edited) Looks that Niji is down for now. Can not start any channel inside Niji!? I get -kanjit text and then :4120??

sesom 55 Posted January 15, 2015 The last channel in the last showed Juryo today and then switched to some news/a movie. But NHK works fine for me today. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kintamayama 45,504 Posted January 15, 2015 I have found a pattern-as long as NHK original works, the last channel goes back to its original schedule. When NHK starts looping badly, the last channel returns to sumo. In any case, the file NHK is outputting has a bug in it and is nonconvertible, which means a lot of extra work for me and a late digest.. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sesom 55 Posted January 15, 2015 I have found a pattern-as long as NHK original works, the last channel goes back to its original schedule. Could be. For me, audio plays in realtime on NHK, while video is a little bit slower when I am viewing in fullscreen-mode. So I hear the result of a bout before I actually see it.

Asojima 2,874 Posted January 16, 2015 (edited) Spoke too soon. I have now lost NHK on Niji completely. UBS is doing better than average. It is getting some temporary freezes. Edited January 16, 2015 by Asojima 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
