Talk:Instant replay

message: I just watched the Modern Marvels episode entitled "Winter Tech", and in one of its trivia segments it alludes to the 1960 Olympic Winter Games in Squaw Valley, California, as when the first "instant replay" was born—officials were unsure whether a contestant had missed a gate in the men's slalom competition, so they asked one of the broadcasters if they could review the videotape. This seems to predate the 1963 date currently listed in the article. Does anyone know anything of this? I know Discovery Channel isn't always the most reliable source, so I don't want to change what is currently written unless someone else can confirm this. Also, I'm not sure it's appropriate to put the American football template on this discussion page; isn't the instant replay just as big a part of most other broadcasted sports?--71.104.226.226 (talk) 01:09, 17 February 2010 (UTC)

message: Can anyone provide a reference that officials have been instructed to delay or alter their calls? As an official, I've heard lots of 'chatter' about this, but no actual directives from league offices. Dextrosity 03:06, 9 April 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: A-Rod Makes History Again

message: Currently, Video referee has a small amount of material about video referees in a few sports. This article has a lot more material, and links to subarticles about particular sports. Clearly this situation is unsatisfactory. Video referee is currently superfluous because I have added all the information that was in it into this article. I then redirected it to here, but a user objected; hence this formal proposal. I think it should be clear that the status quo is not an option. One option is to move everything in the :Instant replay#Use by officials section to a separate article —perhaps named "Video referee", perhaps at some other name— leaving the rump of this article to discuss only the technical aspects and the use of replay for the edification of telespectators (and stadium crowds watching on JumboVision). In the long run, that is what I hope will happen, but for the present, I don't believe there is enough material for two separate articles.  Therefore the redirect should be done. jnestorius(talk) 01:53, 30 November 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  Merge from Video referee 

message: I was curiously looking around on Google and I stumbled onto a PDF file created for NBA officials to know what situations and procedures are for instant reply. It has everything, I'll link it so you can see it just how good the source is. Should be good enough to create a external link for it, right? CamrynTexas (talk) 16:26, 27 June 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  Official instant reply situations and procedures for the NBA 

message: The "History" section incorporates a published claim (although with its asserted "first" not explicitly echoed in the article text) that the first non-film-based instant replay occurred on December 7, 1963. Some of us who were old enough to have been glued to the glass teat on November 24, 1963 can recall one of the networks (not sure which) broadcasting reasonably "instant" replays of the first live-on-TV murder — the shooting of Lee Harvey Oswald by Jack Ruby — at normal speed, in slo-mo, frame by frame forward and reverse, et cetera, ad nauseum. I was already interested in videotape recording technology at the time and there was nothing about the broadcast image, whether frozen or in motion, that suggested anything other than a pure video source to me, as opposed to some sort of wet-film kinescope replay such as the article mentions being used in 1955. I dimly recall reading in some magazine, later in the 1960s, that the Oswald bang replay orgy was effected with a magnetic disc based device which was subsequently used for replays and slo-mo analysis of golf shots and other short video captures, but the WP article states that a system of that kind was "tried out by CBS in 1965, and commercialized in 1967", indicating yet another later "first" which, if accurate, is at odds with practical use of such hardware in November 1963. Can anyone out there shed any light (and maybe a high-quality citable source or two) on this nagging mystery? 66.81.242.169 (talk) 07:37, 17 August 2015 (UTC)
