Damn CBC...
Aug. 11th, 2008 10:18 pmIt would be so great to be able to watch the sports I WANT to see at the Olympics, but they're only broadcast online. Badminton, archery, fencing--online only. This wouldn't be a problem if I could get the program to work on ANY of the computers in this house. Mine plays a promo filler, then goes to dead air, and Windows doesn't even get that far. Meanwhile, TV only has baseball, soccer, swimming, diving, and beach volleyball on an almost endless loop.
Thank God CTV has the broadcast rights for Vancouver. I guess since CBC lost the broadcast rights for the next three Olympics, they don't have to put out much effort for this one. And they wonder why people don't watch CBC any more.
EDIT: Finally got it to work; had to save the file to my desktop and open it in VLC Player. Shouldn't be this hard.
