MLBTV only $4

[sportsnbikes]

If anyone is trying use MLB.TV to photo match any items, it's only $4 bucks through the end of the season. I was able to get a few more photos of a bat I had already matched but wanted more pics and have another bat I'm close on.

Not a bad deal for a quick match!

Thanks for the heads up! I've never used it before, but would love to get some matches. Any pointers on how to use it? Thanks!

Well I can tell you that I was all ready to go using my PS3 and my 60 inch Plasma to check some bats from last year but after not being able to, I called customer support only to find out that you can't go back before this year on the PS3. You can on an XBOX 360 but not the PS3. I was left with using my laptop. Not quite the close-up or picture quality I was looking for. Oh well. I was still able to get better pictures than what I had. But, bigger detailed pictures is what I needed to try and match my Moustakas and Gordon bats. I can still do it by hooking up my laptop to my 46 inch LCD. The 60 inch doesn't have the connection I need to hook up my laptop.

All in all it's pretty easy to use if you have a good Internet connection.

Thanks for the info. I'm definitely considering doing this. How do you capture the still images? Is there a secret to it? I'll also be using a laptop, but also might hook it up to a larger screen. Thanks!

The best way I find to get quality images is to use my computer and have the mlb settings for HD. Then freeze the frame you want by pausing the controller and then take a screen capture from your computer.

I have a Mac so you press the apple key together with the shift key and number 4. You'll then be able to highlight exactly what you want to take a photo of.

Then the photo will be on your desktop. It' seashore then to open up, zoom, crop, whatever.

it's easy (not seashore-autocorrect error)

Thanks for the awesome instructions! I think I might take a stab at it.

How many seasons back does MLB.TV allow access, if not on the PS3? At the $4 purchase price when does the subscription expire?

I didn't ask when it expires. I would think you should be able to use it for awhile. At least until the WS is over.
