I watch my olympics on youtube and they cover every single event from start to finish.

I was watching multiple events on multiple windows and skipping to the exciting parts when needed.

You can simply search the events you want to watch on their channel and select from their drop lists.

Dhomochevsky · 2012-07-29, 05:34

From where are you watching?
I have not managed to find a proxy that lets me watch the olympics channel on yt yet.

Edit:
Oh wait, are you talking about the NBC channel?

Urzu 7 · 2012-07-29, 05:59

I am going to watch the opening ceremony online sometime. Does anyone know where to watch it in HD online? Preferably not from NBC. I heard the two TV personalities (Matt Lauer and someone else) talked over the music the whole time.

I'm going to buy the 2 CD set of Isle of Wonders when it gets a physical release on August 6th. Underworld is my favorite music artist and they were the music directors for the opening ceremony and they made two songs for it and have more material on the 2 disc set, and there is a remix of a U2 song and an abridged version of David Bowie's Heroes on the 2 disc set, and I just love this, because Underworld, U2, and David Bowie are my top 3 music artists.

Hmmm I'm watching the olympics on the official channel: http://www.youtube.com/user/olympic?feature=pvchclk

Watching diving now. China and Canada all look good.

EDIT: Oh, Heymans @ Abel got bronze. A good dive following the 1st one could have put them in better place though.

Women's gymnastics is starting soon....

Looking forward to some amazing performance by legal lolis.

I missed the diving. The regional block is so stupid.

Of course as always doesn't work in Canada. Gotta admit I haven't watched any of these Olympics so far thanks to the terribly hard time I'm having finding a working stream.

The NBColympics.com feed choked my computer out a few times yesterday. Don't know if my computer just doesn't like it or the amount of people on choked it. At least it stayed normal through the Men's 400m IM.

I hope my desktop computer will be better than this when I get back to my apartment later today.

I think NBC is just crap in general. Luckily I found my TV remote so I'm watching stuff on Sportsnet. I like how the Canadian channels are going with the exact same theme as 2010. Not sure if that's just the official Olympic theme or what.

Also China's gymnasts almost look of age this time around.

pepper_begs · 2012-07-29, 10:55

Did one of those fellows with the stove pipe hats look like Sean Bean to any one else?

Wearing a beard and looking very serious.

Unfortunately they didn't perform very well. The US team looks unbeatable at the moment.

Spartanz1170 · 2012-07-29, 11:13

Currently watching men's Volleyball Group B Pelminary, damn team USA just wrecking poor Serbia...

Edit: I finally found the song they used for the Industrial Revolution segment of the opening ceremony,it's called "And I will kiss" by Underworld.....

This time around? lol Same thing in 2008.

Yeah, I've got all the channels memorized. I'm flying around amongst all of them to catch at least a little bit of as many sports as possible. Watching US v. Serbia in Men's V-ball right now on NBC.

You are correct, Matt and his cohorts were chattering jackasses of the type you dump your drink on in a movie theater. I stopped watching after a bit.

Aye, looking for a BBC or other version floating about.

Unfortunately, not as much domination for the US this set... down by 2 into the first technical timeout...

It is the only the qualifier...

Yao Jinnan's vault may not have had a nice landing but still her team got in....more chances to rectify that. My heart really went out to her on that one....can't recover from that unlike the floor apparatus..

Viktoria Komova's beam was pretty nice even if she seemed close to falling at times.

As for region block...use Youtube.

Yeah, and then handily won the 3rd set for the sweep. Good showing, but the road only gets tougher.

And, only the Olympics could get me to watch soccer. lol GBR up 1-0 on the UAE through the first third.
