2016 Four Continents TV & Livestream

LadyB · Feb 16, 2016

The ISU eurovisionchannel seems to be working and broadcasting live coverage in Europe. Other than that we're only left with whatever Eurosport throws at us and searching YouTube for whatever videos are coming in. Best of luck to all! :popcorn:

ETA, just dawned upon me that the NBC telecast will air before the Men's FS has taken place.

Men's FS airing on cable overnight on Monday morning (should be Feb 22nd?)... :palmf:

Abysmal TV ratings guaranteed.

On the bright side, we get 3 hours of total coverage between NBC & NBCSN. And the 2-hour NBC broadcast (without a completed Men's event yet) is bound to have 'unusual' coverage, probably some Dance and Pairs included. Some short programs too, I'd imagine.

I don't feel sure whether the USFS release is mistaken or not re the date of the NBCSN hour -- although I think chances are that you are right that USFS meant to say Feb 22.

If(?) "Feb. 21 Men's free skate Midnight-1 a.m." is correct, it presumably would be live coverage.
In local Taipei time, the Men's FS starts on 21.02.2016 at 12:00:00. (Meaning 12 noon.)
But it would seem weird to have live coverage that is not timed to include the skaters in the final group ...

ETA:

What the NBC release says well above the schedule charts: "NBCSN will air coverage of the men's free skate Sunday, Feb. 21 at midnight (ET)."
But I do agree that maybe NBC intended to say Monday, Feb 22??

I do not get to watch every Eurosport in my country, don't I? So does every other viewer in Europe. So there is no need to tell me what Germany or France viewers are getting to see. I am tired of playing with VPN and security of my PC every single time I want to watch figure skating competitions. If Eurosport covers the event it should offer a detailed program for every country. And ISU should really think more about people around the world to get free internet coverage on their channel if they want this sport to be popular.

I just quit my Eurosport (UK) subscription. I cited poor figure skating coverage as my reason for quitting. Let's hope that everyone who feels the same way leaves similar feedback and that one day Eurosport will implement some changes! Hubby also sent in a complaint email to them, although they probably don't read those.

There are the Kazsport streams. See himawari's post just below yours for the schedule and goldenfour411icecoverage's post a bit above yours for a stream link on page 3. Also thanks for the ISU Eurovision channel suggestion. I hope it works here in Latvia for once (it didn't before when it should have worked).

Sabrina · Feb 17, 2016

Any working streams (not geo blocked) for short program?
I thought CBC would show them online, but they only show the long programs.

But since I'm from local, I don't know if this channel will be geo-blocked or not.

They are streaming short dance live right now, thanks Taiwan

Thank you so much for this. Even though I'm in Europe and already tried Great Britain, France and others from Europe it either says plugin has failed or it is geoblocked...Really big thanks

Winnie_20 · Feb 17, 2016

Yes, thankfully the Taiwanese stream works like a charm, and perfect quality!
A big BOO to Eurovision. :-(

Thank you! Of course ISU Eurovision channel is not working even in Europe where it should work according to the page itself :rolleye:

. I found another, working Kazsport stream (http://livesport.im/kazsport-tv-live - just in case), but this is even better quality. I just dislike the commentator talking all over it, but I guess we will have to bear it.

Great stuff, cheers. There is also a Taiwanese one I've watched this morning, to be found at http://soyouwanttowatchfigureskating.tumblr.com/. The link Free, non-blocked YouTube streams for all of 4CC. Works brilliantly, is just blocked in my office. The Eurovision channel does not work with my oldish iMac, but it works in the office.
Enjoyed the Shibs and WeaPo already!

It's really good to know that they don't seem to have a problem to gain new viewers and are therefore comfortable enough to repel those who would already like to watch :sarcasm: such a luxury problem

Thank you! Now presenting judges! Awesome! :yahoo:

Winnie_20 · Feb 18, 2016

I didn't realize the Taiwanese youtube livestreams were also being archived. Wonderful to be able to catch up with the skaters I missed earlier today!
