At least now I know it is not on my side. Tried out on 5G instead of WiFi, disabled the ad blocker etc and the error still persisted...

I’m thinking they have not scaled for demand.  Over-complicated and trying to do too much at once.

I am sorry, but we literally do have the worst results system at the Olympics in the Internet era :/

Probably they spent most of the IT budget (and also a part of the olympic village catering budget) on the opening ceremony instead

Dont know if this is the good topic, but a technical question for Max users:

 

Does anyone know what is the quality/resolution the Olympic content is being streamed at? (Particularly the live broadcasts)

Is it different between the web/browser version and the Android/iOS/Smart TV version?

I sent a feedback about missing disciplines to the support on the official website yesterday. I do not know if it mattered anything, but today swimming and rowing are there in the schedule!

 

One issue less with the system then

Well, it in the Polish version of the app the quality is literally called "good", "better" and "the best" . No numbers though :/

I will check the app then. On the web version (browser) there is no toggle to change quality

I’ve followed many multi event competitions but this is the first time I’ve seen a site down for maintenance while competition is ongoing
