Scripps Sports Poor Unwatchable Broadcast

Scripps Sports broadcast for Nashville Predators on channel 1028 is absolutely awful, unwatchable, skipping and stuttering.

I agree.  All the hype about the new channel and just disappointment.  It is so choppy.

Horrible! It's unwatchable. I tried reporting to Comcast but that's the biggest joke in the world. I also tried reporting the following test via the app but that got nowhere. I cannot get past the bot attendant which has the comprehension capabilities of an earthworm.

Here's the deal Comcast/Xfinity:

I am in the Nashville area and am reporting a persistent Xfinity TV channel-feed problem. The Spot – Nashville 28 (WNPX) is severely glitching on both channel 28 and HD channel 1028: repeated video freezing/pixelation and synchronized audio skipping/dropouts.

Other channels are normal, so this does not appear to be a general TV-box, HDMI, or in-home Wi-Fi problem. The same issue occurs on all other Xfinity devices in our home. Other channels are fine.

Please open a service ticket and escalate this as a Nashville-area channel ingest/distribution or carriage-feed impairment. Please provide the ticket/reference number.

Thank you for adding those details @blueline106! Reporting the issue on both channel 28 and channel 1028, across multiple devices in the home, is very helpful! When the freezing and stuttering occur, do the on-screen graphics, score display, and ticker remain clear while the video is affected, or does the entire picture break up?

 

Also, does the same behavior continue during commercial breaks, or is it primarily occurring during the live games?

Good evening @user_u73lym! I can see why that's frustrating, especially when you're trying to watch the Predators and the broadcast is stuttering to the point of being unwatchable.

 

When the channel starts skipping and stuttering, do the on-screen graphics, score, and ticker remain clear while the video is affected, or does the entire picture break up?

 

Does this happen during commercial breaks?
