nbcolympics.com Silverlight Feeds

nbcolympics asked me to put in area code and TV provider. I thought it
was for marketing research but does that matter?

For example, I don't see a gymnastics and swimming category for feeds.
:cry:
Does putting in some other area code / TV provider change what you get?

On my browser they are all in alphabetical order and I get them all. Have
you tried reloading the page? Have you tried clearing your browser cache?
And just out of curiosity, what browser and OS are you using?

I believe the zip code and television provider information are to properly
set the television station guide for your area.

Are you looking at the left hand column's with links to those sports?
And it has a LIVE next to some of them?

No, not that one. I have all of those there too, but when I click on
Gymnastics, it doesn't show any indication that it has video.


What I'm talking about is the "listing" in this link, where each sport
has "time-slots" in grey (underneath the time).
'2008 Beijing Summer Olympic Games | TV & Online Listings | Viewing
Schedule | NBC Olympics'
(http://www.nbcolympics.com/tv_and_on...ngs/index.html)

There should be stick figures for each sport. Come to think of it,
it's also missing for me:
Boxing
Diving
Rhythmic Gym.
Track & Field
Trampoline
Volleyball

Oh and I tried FF 3.0.1 and IE 7.

I guess not all sports are going to broadcasts "live" online...

You CAN see the recordings in the subsection "Videos" and they are like
several hours each however. But I suppose that doesn't really compare
to watching them live. LOL

Did you bandwidth increase recently? I sometimes get 9 Mbps, but neve
have I gotten over 10. It's advertised as 10 actually
Is this going to be permanent? Or just for the time being to serv
things like '2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing | Athlete, Team Profiles
