Ridgefield Hockey Broadcasts

CLICK THE PLAY BUTTON BELOW WHEN WE ARE LIVE (Usually 1 hr before puck drop!)

Memory to Video Productions has been broadcasting the Tigers varsity games for several years. Our broadcasts include Play-by-Play, Instant Replay, Multiple Angles, live score-and-clock and occasional graphics. We use our unique, customized studio in Waterbury to provide a lot of the magic that gets on the air. We also have the ability to feature sponsors upon request from running company logos on screen to full video commercials between commercials. (Contact us or the RHS Booster Club for more info.)

Our broadcasts often feature the announcing talents of Michael Conciatore but also can and have featured other announcers as well. We have also occasionally streamed RAHA games in the past. Any games can be streamed from just about any location as MVP TV is extremely mobile and always ready to follow a team on its journey.

Our goal is to have the original stream run on Meridix live and then later have those games available on YouTube. We can’t stream directly to YouTube due to potential copyright violations from the music that plays throughout the games. (See more on this down below).

We also record the footage from Camera 1 and that raw footage is available for video editing later if anyone is interested in using that to build highlight reels for themselves. Just contact us if you want the footage as it is free for that usage. In fact, all footage by MVP TV is available for RHS Tiger usage thanks to the RHS Booster Club. No need to pay Meridix for your own version so if you want something, just ask Joey at MVP TV.

We also build recruiting highlight reels for players interested in reaching the next level. And you can find our highlight reels at https://memorytovideo.com/highlightreels/

We are always interested in feedback on how we are doing and what we may be able to do even better. Feel free to contact MVP owner Joey Delgado by phone/text at (831) 809-6629 or by email at memorytovideo@gmail.com.

RIDGEFIELD YOUTUBE CHANNEL

Other Broadcast Info

Due to copyright violations, we are unable to stream safely to platforms like YouTube or Twitch. Those companies use AI services to instantly detect music playing and will flag the account holders regarding the violations. The consequences can be severe, including termination of your account. In other cases, they may block the stream, mute the stream, suspend the account for several weeks or months or maybe do nothing other than send a warning.

The platform we use (Meridix) is immune to these issues, which is why use this. Meridix does make the stream available to watch after the stream ends but this process can take hours. They also offer the option to purchase a downloadable file, but again this process takes hours and the broadcast is free to any Ridgefield fan who requests a file. Just ask Joey. Again, you do not need to pay Meridix for anything.

Once the game ends, we export the video to YouTube, which then flags the violations of the songs being played and then we edit out the sound from those moments. This process can take several days but eventually the games can be watched on YouTube with no threat of having our YouTube account suspended.
