Oh well. If you have the ESP Player, you can watch everything, live or delayed, with OBS commentary.

 

I get some painful flashbacks just remembering back when I was fully dependent on our national TV broadcaster...

Sure. I do not even envisaged to watch Eurosport in TV during the Olympics, I will have either our RTVS2 or the Czech ČT Sport (more often the Czechs I guess) and just non-stop Eurosport Player in my PC :d

Do any of my American friends know when NBC is going to release their broadcast schedule? @Olympian1010@quaker2001 @Triplecast

I stopped looking at schedules,  I don't even watch NBC anymore.   I watch everything on NBColympics on a computer and a roku on all my tv's.    Main NBC disappointed me too many times with their story first coverage

Wait, the Eurosport schedule varies by country? That definitely hasn't been the case for the Olympics. Or maybe it is for the bigger European nations? They never showed Hungarian events on the Hungarian Eurosport, unless it was one of the most watched sports for neutrals, like swimming. I always assumed that ES1 has the same schedule everywhere, while ES2 sometimes varies based on regional TV rights (which is why we only have Wimbledon on ES2 in Hungary as ES1 can't show it).

Doesn’t the feed have to change because of the language differences. Like when I go on holiday the German Eurosport is available in my hotel room but I can’t imagine they would air that coverage in Hungary with all the presenting and commentary in German.

There is an ES International which is a common feed with dubbed languages,  but also British, French, German etc.  If we in Britain want to watch canoeing we have to go to International, because British is always showing motorbikes, snooker etc.

Okay, that makes sense, I thought that this was about changing the ES International feed by nation. I haven't paid much attention to Eurosport for more than a decade now, the British Eurosport is the only national version that I remember being a thing during the "old days".

Pan-European Eurosport 1 always shows the same feed in every country. Eurosport 2, as mentioned, can vary in programming depending in regional rights/interests. 

 

On the contrary to many people here, i find their coverage to be very good and i'm glad the Olympic rights reverted back to them. I'm dreading the time, which we only had our public broadcaster...

 

Main TV will be on the E1/E2 all day and i'll use my laptop and my home office stationary for everything else i'd like to watch. :)

This is not true. In the UK (and by extension Ireland), they have their own Eurosport 1 feed too 

 

there’s obviously some common programming but it’s definitely a specific UK fees

Eurosport has quite a lot of rights differences between mainland Europe and the UK and Ireland so could never share a schedule. 
 

And even when programming is shared all the commentary and presenting is different as Eurosport would never put out a dubbed feed in the UK.

    • Alpine skiing also we have a lot of problems: the men's team is very weak and has been winning a few podiums a season for several years and the our best skier- Dominik Paris is 35. We still have a strong women's team but 3 of the 4 leaders are over 30 (Goggia, Brignone, Curtoni) and Bassino is 28. Another 2 years and we will have the same problem as the men's. There is basically no cross-country skiing without Pellegrino for many years, biathlon is based on 2 individuals with one of them has a 35 years. Vittozzi's injury was enough and we haven`t a single podium this season after 3 stages of the World Cup. As for 1 year to the home games the situation isn`t optimistic.
    • Hail to the Reds... Commanders. First time since 1991 Washington QB has thrown 5 TD passes in a game (which isn't all that improbable in the modern game alas Dan Snyder...)    
    • Italy is much better in alpine skiing, in The end all Nations have a Limited Talent Pool. Norway is far better than Sweden/Finland in Cross-Country skiing, alpine skiing and Biathlon, but Sweden/Finland are far better in ice Hockey.  Great Britain wins far more medals than Germany At Summer olympics, but GB is also inexistant in Winter Sports and Most popular Team Sports (Volleyball, Handball, Basketball, Ich Hockey).  
    • Thanks, great stat! Tannheimer wont turn 20 until August 2025, so she has The whole Season To Join Kristiansen and Neuner. Too Bad that she was ill this week. I think Galmace Paulin and Tänglander could also do it. I think Grotian (born 2004) is The First female Biathlete born after 1999 To make a World Cup Podium. On The Mens side multiple Athletes (Perrot, Giacomel, Uldal) have already done it.   E. Öberg was 22 and a half when she First won.  Dahlmeier was 21 and a half.   Edit: Grotian only narrowly missed The Podium in The Individual at The 2024 World Championships when she was still  19 year old.
