2011 games on MLB.TV

[sportsnbikes]

Is anyone else having any issues with viewing games during the 2011 season on MLB.TV? I have tried on 2 different computers and it doesn't work.

I sent a tweet to MLB support and their simple resonse was that they only support 2 years of games. 2010 and 2012 works. I also found a link in another thread to 2009 games and the games work there as well.

This is frustrating as I am trying to match a bat from the end of the 2011 season.

I've had the same problem accessing games from before the 2012 season, and receive the error message in the attached image. Please share the link in the thread you referenced, which provides access to 2009 games.

I have trouble with older games loading when I use the web calendar for selecting dates - but I've had better luck opening a recent game and then selecting Archive on the game window and then accessing games that way.

I had this exact problem with 2011 games last week. 2010 & 2012 were fine.

In my case, MLB.TV would hang up in "Verifying Account", then after about 30 seconds display the error message screen posted in this thread.

Here is a workaround that I used successfully:

1) Log out of MLB.TV
2) Navigate to the page for the date you're interested in, & select the broadcast you want
3) MLB.TV will pop up a Login box. Enter your Login info.
4) The game should begin streaming after you have logged in.

This worked for me with or without the NexDef plugin. Good luck!

This is EXACTLY what happens to me on the 2011 season.

I am going to try this tomorrow again but I think I did this. It's definitely frustrating to not be able to use the service.
