Cable Television

Basic cable television service is provided to residents, staff and faculty of CSUMB.

Residence Halls Television Require built in QAM cable Tuners.

If your television does NOT have an internal QAM Tuner you can purchase a converter box. We recommend:

• iView 3500 Multi-Function Digital Converter Box with Recording and Media Playback available at amazon.com
• Make sure that when you scan for channels using a QAM Converter that you have the converter box set to scan for digital STD cable channels, no "antenna" or "Over the Air."

AppleTV, Roku and Smart TVs

• AppleTV, Roku, Smart TVs and other network-connected devices can be used in the residence halls and can connect to the network via a wired or wireless connection.
• You must register your network device using our network device registration form before use.  Please note, network device registration is required for on-campus residence halls only, and not East Campus.
• PhiloEDU is available for Roku, Androd, and iOS and is used to access the IPTV enabled channels on campus.  This service is available only to on-campus residents and requires OtterID for sign in.

East Campus Television

• Cable TV content is provided by University Video Services, and delivered to your TV by IT@CSUMB.
• If you are experiencing a service related issue with your data/Internet connection only, please call the IT Help Desk at 831-582-HELP for assistance.
• After hours and weekends, you may report TV Service issues by calling Its (877) 567-3567 and leaving a message for a call back during normal business hours.

Channel Guide

• Undesirable Content - Please note that any channels displaying adult or otherwise undesirable content must be blocked by the user through their TV's SmartChip, Content Ratings, or simply 'forgetting' the channel from your TV's lineup. Please refer to your TV's instructions on how to limit or remove a channel or undesirable content.
• TIVO no longer supported on CSUMB's TV system. - Regrettably, TIVO's no longer work due to limitations of the TIVO Service to read CTV's lineup data. Please see the Streeme/TV DVR service below for an alternative to TIVO.

As part of the upgrade to our lineup, CSUMB provides Streeme Live Streaming TV and "cloud" DVR Service for On-Campus Residents and East Campus Residents. These services are only available to on-campus residents and accessed with OtterID or East Campus Partner Account.
