So they have two streams, but only one (and sometimes none) of them are showing live sport. We missed a lot of the Athletics because they were showing BMX on Red Button (understandably because GB were about to win two medals) and... boxing highlights on BBC One. I think with Athletics it was decided to catch up on them a bit later as that is a bit quicker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you take out that first day, which had no commentary of course. Spot on. Although Eurosport's TV coverage (from what I can tell) has been a bit lacking. As now we come across the world To share these Games of old Let all the flags of every land In brotherhood unfold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pdr4332 149 Posted July 31, 2021 #533 Share Posted July 31, 2021 My only gripe with ES player is that when they have multiple streams from the same event (athletics, gymnastics), they dont bother naming them, it is just called "Gymnastics - women- day X". What it would cost to put there "Gymnastics - women all-around - vault" for example? Same with athletics. It takes a lot of time to find the stream I am looking for. Plus: I too find ESP of good value. My yearly plan renewed in June or July this year (last year I got 4 or 5 months free due to the coronavirus pandemic when there was nothing to broadcast live for several months), so it will be valid in time for Beijing. Therefore I get two Olympic Games worth of content out of one year's subscription. Not bad for € 24.99 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have every single stream of every match of every sport named, nothing more easy to find the video you search Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orangehair43 169 Posted August 1, 2021 #536 Share Posted August 1, 2021 The poor worldwide ratings for the Games will make getting bidders for 2036 and onwards even harder - it will have a long term impact on the games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pifta 41 Posted August 3, 2021 #537 Share Posted August 3, 2021 I'm a bit upset about M4Sport's coverage, because they only show and talk about Hungarians. I care less about the 42nd Hungarian than a Simone Biles or a Novak Djokovic. I want to see the winners. I write here because I wonder if the same thing happens in other countries.

Need to see the numbers from an Olympics not tainted by a pandemic. Only so much we can figure from the numbers here Nickyc707 1 Paris 2024 competition schedule by Day Paris 2024 competition schedule by Sport Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NaBUru38 204 Posted August 3, 2021 #540 Share Posted August 3, 2021 Bright side: Marca Claro publishes hundreds of highlights videos on YouTube for Hispanic American fans. Dark side: the titles and sample images of every highlights video spoil the results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
