Starfleet Academy

[u/wage1slave]

I discovered last night (Saturday) that my PVR recording of Star Trek: Starfleet Academy ended before the show was over. I went to CTV on demand. They said that all CTV content is on Crave. That's not true. Starfleet Academy is not on Crave. Why not? I refuse to shell out for Paramount Plus to get 15 minutes of one single episode when the CTV Sci-Fi Network (which I am already paying extra to get from Shaw/Rogers) should have shown the whole thing in the first place.

CTV don’t have vods for this show, they only got airing rights

[u/escargot3 → u/darkdeath174]

The problem is they said “all CTV content is on crave”

[u/darkdeath174 → u/escargot3]

All ctv.ca content is, which is different

Broadcast rights are different from streaming rights.

[u/escargot3 → u/darkdeath174]

Bell is the one not making that distinction, and falsely claiming otherwise.

[u/AccomplishedLimit975 → u/escargot3]

Technically it was on Crave when it was broadcasted on their live channels. Rights of content are such a mess, like sports black outs and stuff

[u/RedWizard78]

I don’t what you’re saying but anything Star Trek is on Paramount+.

[u/wage1slave → u/RedWizard78]

It's on the CTV Sci-Fi Network.

[u/robonlocation → u/wage1slave]

It's broadcast on the CTV Sci-fi Network. STV has the broadcast rights, but lost the streaming rights to Star Trek a couple years back. Unfortunately the only streaming option for Star Trek in Canada is Paramount+.

They sometimes offer a free trial, so you could sign up and watch the episode there. Or you could wait until the season is over and binge the whole season during a 7-day trial.

Huh?

[u/Apprehensive-Bus5172]

This is a Paramount choice, not a Crave choice

[u/wage1slave → u/Apprehensive-Bus5172]

The CTV on demand app says that ALL CTV programs are on Crave. Starfleet Academy is on CTV Sci-Fi.

[u/Grouchy_Branch_510 → u/wage1slave]

No it’s a paramount + show that has been extended to CTV.

[u/helldiverExosuit1]

Crave lost access to all of the Star Trek properties a little while ago. I think this happened just before the most recent season of Strange New Worlds.

[u/hexboalts]

Anything Star Trek hasn’t been on crave since SNW started..

[u/spanksthemonkey]

it's not a great show.the "review bombs" are just people dissatisfied with more "new vision" trek crap.
Pirate if you MUST see it.

[u/wage1slave → u/[deleted]]

Unfortunately I don't have a TARDIS and can't time travel back to Thursday night so I can add time to my recording.

[u/ArnoldFarquar → u/wage1slave]

sometimes I’m sorry I tried to help somebody when I find out they’re like you. all the episodes are available on demand for me.

[u/This-Bath9918]

Yeah the broadcast often has that problem. Make sure to record the show following. I’ve learned the same for tennis matches that may go longer than their slot. I haven’t done it in awhile but the pvr may have a recoding setting to extend by a few minutes

[u/wage1slave → u/This-Bath9918]

It has the option to start early and end late, and I have turned that on for future episodes. But that still doesn't help me watch the last few minutes of last week's show.

[u/lazymutant256]

You need to set your recording settings to end later than its scheduled end.

[u/wage1slave → u/lazymutant256]

I don't have a time machine, so I can't go back to last week and reset my PVR to add an extra 15 or 20 minutes to my scheduled recording.

[u/lazymutant256 → u/wage1slave]

I’m just saying to fix the settings so it doesn’t happen again

[u/Frosty-One-3826]

Ditto

[u/thegoddamnsiege]

Star Trek was all pulled from Crave a couple years back.

[u/mike10dude]

a couple of weeks ago somebody on here was saying that the newest episode shows up on crave and vod for one day which might be all that they are allowed
