Is this geoblocked? I can't access the videos.

It is geoblocked for usa, so possibly for other parts of the world (here i can only rewatch it on NBC for now)

I wish to report that direct links dont work anymore. 

Videos are still present but they must be searched manually through replay section on the site.

Pitty for the effort HCKOSICE has made.

Yeah I noticed it too. I will for sure fix the links, no worries, but since it require more time to find the exact links, I considered doing it later after the winter season on which I want to focus mainly now

yeah...

 

however, now all replays are available directly on the Olympic Channel app on all the connected devices...there's a full section "relive Tokyo"...

 

unfortunately, they're stuck on that poor 25fps picture quality... 

 

is it so difficult to understand that any sport broadcast must have 50/60 fps???

I watched many events in 60fps, and it should be standard frame for major events.

But i am not so picky with IOC as long as they provide replays.

My only guess is that 60FPS brings lot more gigabytes and that their servers arent capable (yet) to save all those petabytes of files...

Hey everyone,

 

Sadly, i have some bad news regarding the replay videos for both Pyeongchang 2018 and Tokyo 2020,

 

I sent the IOC an email about some heats of the rowing missing from their replays and highlights feature including a canoe sprint video,

 

They replied back and told me that once the Beijing winter olympics begins, they will slowly be removing older replay videos to make room for beijing 2022 replays,

 

So we will soon no longer be able to relive the entire competitions from both tokyo 2020 and pyeongchang 2018 anytime we want

 

Sorry i have to deliver the news 

 

😔😭

Geez, all that money and they can't afford more storage?

I thought the olympics website was gonna be like a youtube in a way, i understand why they cannot upload them all onto youtube, mainly due to youtube's ridiculous copyright laws but i am very dissapointed with the IOC's decision 😒

So after a few years the only publicly available footage of each edition will be 2-minutes highlights videos?

Hmm... How to download some of the favourite videos to avoid losing access to it?
