Peacock is not making the world feed available for most events so far today. Even when I select the event-specific stream, not the generic NBC/USA/CNBC feed, it still plays the NBC feed of the event. The same problem occurred with the opening ceremony. There was no option (either live or primetime) to listen to anything but NBC's inane banter.

I saw a social media post from Chad Salmela that they would be leaning on the NBC feeds moreso than the world feed.  Which is strange because a lot of the tiles are labelled as "world feed".  Not a huge fan of that and like you, I was looking for the clean OBS feed of the opening ceremony, but it's nowhere to be found

With Paris, I just waited until they uploaded it to the Olympics site and watched it then.

Unfortunately, Olympics.com is only posting a few events during the games this time. For example, today the only events that are available are the Men's Downhill Final, Men's Big Air Final, and the Men's Short Free Dance.

That sucks for viewers... Screaming Chad is the worst

Hi! I made an ext that helps me not miss anything, without having to rely on calendar reminders or alarms. [ONLY PEACOCK AT THIS POINT]

I uploaded it now under a Winter Olympics–related name, but long-term I’ll probably change the name and add more personal customization options.

If anyone is interested in this solution, feel free to let me know. I’m not sure whether I can post it without violating the rules, so for now I’ll hold off, maybe it’ll sound interesting to some people.
i’d really appreciate it if you could let me know whether this feels like something that could actually be useful.

The BBC here in  is going to turn into a funeral coverage if the medal target is nobody near reached. Paris 2024 showed how the BBC has turned more and more NBC like.

Looks like NBC is a happy camper , for now at least
