| Vista Ultimate x64 | nbcolympics.com Silverlight Feeds nbcolympics asked me to put in area code and TV provider. I thought it was for marketing research but does that matter? For example, I don't see a gymnastics and swimming category for feeds.  Does putting in some other area code / TV provider change what you get? Here: 2008 Beijing Summer Olympic Games | TV & Online Listings | Viewing Schedule | NBC Olympics It gives me these... Archery Badminton Baseball Basketball Canoe/Kayak Cycling Equestrian Fencing Field Hockey Handball Judo Modern Pentathlon Rowing Sailing Shooting Soccer Softball Synchronized Swimming Table Tennis Taekwondo Tennis Triathlon Water Polo Weightlifting Wrestling |

| | Re: nbcolympics.com Silverlight Feeds On my browser they are all in alphabetical order and I get them all. Have you tried reloading the page? Have you tried clearing your browser cache? And just out of curiosity, what browser and OS are you using? I believe the zip code and television provider information are to properly set the television station guide for your area.

I have all of those there too, but when I click on Gymnastics, it doesn't show any indication that it has video. What I'm talking about is the "listing" in this link, where each sport has "time-slots" in grey (underneath the time). 2008 Beijing Summer Olympic Games | TV & Online Listings | Viewing Schedule | NBC Olympics On the top it lists TV stations, and below that, there should be stick figures for each sport. Come to think of it, it's also missing for me: Boxing Diving Rhythmic Gym. Track & Field Trampoline Volleyball Oh and I tried FF 3.0.1 and IE 7. Last edited by rasmasyean; 08-10-2008 at 06:18 AM.. |

| Vista Ultimate x64 | Re: nbcolympics.com Silverlight Feeds I guess not all sports are going to broadcasts "live" online... You CAN see the recordings in the subsection "Videos" and they are like several hours each however. But I suppose that doesn't really compare to watching them live. LOL |

| Vista Ultimate x64 | Re: nbcolympics.com Silverlight Feeds Did you bandwidth increase recently? I sometimes get 9 Mbps, but never have I gotten over 10. It's advertised as 10 actually. Is this going to be permanent? Or just for the time being to serve things like 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing | Athlete, Team Profiles, Olympics News | Free Photos & Videos | NBC Olympics  |
