I wanted to know too

Usually done for scheduling, since they are going for recorded weights and not some head-to-head competition. Spaces people out and gives a rest between parts.

Cool, thanks

 

[Subitai]

Ya, this Merukin is using BBC atm.

 

[Delio]

You guys seriously need to give BBC a shot. Has not disappointed. NBC stream was just awful.

How do we get on the BBC stream again?

 

[Kjellson]

I'm guessing I'm the only one who's got problems with BBC? Many of the videos doesn't work and the streams dies often.

 

[rangersfan414]

Wow a sexy goal by USA again in water polo. Up 4-2 now.

NBC says streaming problems are our own fault - http://www.sbnation.com/london-olympics-2012/2012/7/29/3199516/nbc-olympics-live-stream-problems-statement

What a joke.

Seriously, is there no New York gaffer that can stand outside their studio with the BBC stream playing?

 

[mcfrank]

The BBC doesn't do streaming problems. Get on it.

I want to watch from the iPad and I have not been able to get it to work on iPad. Also TunnelBear is how I was watching BBC on my computer, but it stopped working when I upgraded to Mountain Lion =(

Go to expatshield.com, download and install that, then bbc.co.uk/sport/olympics. ENJOY

WOW. I have tried their streaming on 3 different computers, 2 operating systems and 3 browsers. On only one did it work smoothly, and even then only in SD. Meanwhile, ESPN's streaming worked flawlessly on the two of those computers I've tried it on, and in HD.

 

[Brinbe]

lol Tsonga

 

[Impeccable]

Swim off and a shot at a gold medal coming up. Go Canada!

 

[Brazil]

So Spain is losing too.

What a day.

 

[Piggus]

You americans should definitely try and get onto BBC. I just watched some NBC for a bit, them ads <.>

I've been watching the BBC coverage for a while and it's great. NBC is awful. The only thing they care about is money and ratings.

 

[Canis lupus]

Damn, Turkish women volleybal team lost against Brazil. Oh well, tomorrow we play against China!

 

[dc89]

Damn you. I got excited for a moment before realizing what you meant.

I think these 4 girls are afraid of a bit of rain

 

[Wes]

American audiences of BBC being introduced to the wonder that is Helen Skelton.

 

[Zaph]

All you Americans enjoying our socialist TV for free - how about a small donation to BBC's favourite children's charity?

 

[ElectricBlue187]

YAY Well done SK!

edit: fuckers in this thread stealing our BBC. We pay for that!

We CAN'T pay for it lol

[Koodo]

I need a real name *.*

Lord, I am so flustered after seeing his pictures that I keep forgetting his real name.

James Magnussen. *.*

Terry Wogan makes people immediately click the back button.

Did you see the match? Fourth set was incredible.

 

[mcfrank]

Nevermind, it appears they fixed tunnelbear for mountain lion. Woot

 

[OpinionatedCyborg]

jesus, men's weightlifting hurts just to watch...

 

[Koodo]

USA won a medal in swimming?

I bet she doped.

 

[Buba Big Guns]

Weightlifting has to be the hardest sport in the olympics.

 

[Envelope]

Montenegro has been a bit disappointing in the first half of the waterpolo match, here's hoping they pull it together and show what they're really capable of in the second.

 

[Brazil]

Weightlifting has to be the hardest sport in the olympics.

No way. You just have to be strong.

 

[Subitai]

USA won a medal in swimming?

I bet she doped.

If she did, USADA will be on her butt soon enough.

 

[Edmond Dantès]

I'd go with Decathlon.

Until they bring Tug of War back.

 

[RDreamer]

Got BBC to work with unblock-us... kind of. It works for all of a few seconds, then the colors and things get all jumbled and blurry and it starts loading over and over again and only actually plays once in a while.

 

[Big-E]

You can feel the pain in this Uzbekistan guys face.

 

[Red Blaster]

Alright, Billy Corgan's beach volleyball match is tonight

 

[mclem]

American audiences of BBC being introduced to the wonder that is Helen Skelton.

What they *won't* see is the fact that she is made of iron.

 

[Nesotenso]

any other swimming finals tonight ?

 

[smiggyRT]

Is there a massive contingent of US fans in London, or are a few just really loud?

 

[Wes]

Weightlifting has to be the hardest sport in the olympics.

I'd say triathlon or open water swimming for me.

[Psychotext]

No way. You just have to be strong.

They'll add bench press to the olympics one day... no doubt.

 

[QuicheFontaine]

Giggs' goal was great, but Bellamy is the star of this team.

 

[Wes]

Iron and wonderfulness.

 

[OpinionatedCyborg]

nah... even when you get stronger, a shtiload of weight still feels like a shitload of weight.... it really sucks. very rewarding, but the amount of focus required to lift a ton of weight is astounding.

 

[celestial body]

56 kilo guys C&Jing ~150kg is incredible.

 

[Brazil]

12 repetitions or bust.

I lift weight. Not like that, obviously, but I know the feeling. Still, it's impossible to say that it's the hardest sport around when there are others like gymnastics or archery around.

 

[fuzzyreactor]

Just got home. Watch should i be watching, any finals going on?

 

[Pacbois]

Just got home. Watch should i be watching, any finals going on?

Finals in Swimming.

 

[mclem]

Iron and wonderfulness.

It has crossed my mind that part of explaining the iron part would require explaining Blue Peter. And that would be a challenge in itself.

Edit: Hmmm, £50 tickets have just appeared for Wednesday's swimming. Tempting...

 

[Gamer @ Heart]

im getting a constant need for buffering on the BBC player that i wasnt getting on NBC. Anything i can do to fix that?

 

[Brazil]

South African WR!
