Re: Eurosport coverage of Canmore races -- please!

Canadians paying for extra cable service will be able to watch on CBC
Country Canada. See broadcast times at the link. Commentary often
provided by Coach Jack Sasseville. However, I have no idea if it will
be him this time around.

This morning I tried to record the NRK video stream of the Drammen Sprints.
I could only get the first 25 mins of the broadcast before the data stream
started to fall apart. I can still make a torrent out of what I got, but
from heat 4 of the womens quarterfinals on it will be all choppy except for
a couple of minutes here and there. Oddly, the last 2/3 of the womens final
is OK before it goes crappy. You can still figure out what's happening
during all the rest of the races but I don't know whether you would want to
watch it repeatedly. All the interviews with Virpi and Petra Madcik are in
English. So if enough of you tell me to make a torrent I can do it.
Otherwise I don't want to do all this work editing out the hourly news
breaks.

The big issue is this.... I live in CALIFORNIA. Why am I trying to Record a
video stream from OSLO when the rest of you living in EUROPE can record this
with 10 times less problems. My data stream has to go through at least 25
different network hops before it gets to my house. I get constant packet
loss. What about you GERMANS in this group? Why don't you record your high
picture quality ARD webcast stream? I can send you a copy of my recording
program if you need it. The rest of you don't even need to live in Norway
to record the high bit rate NRK webstream. You just need a broadband
connection and the link I can email you.

The Estonian ETV video clips aren't the complete race plus the picture
quality is poor compared to the Norwegian and German webcasts. Even the
Eurosport video stream resolution is mediocre and the color isn't vivid when
you watch at full screen mode. So how about it... Anders? the 2 Terje's?
Janne G.... where are you? You in Poland who was downloading my torrent
yesterday? WILL YOU RECORD FOR US THIS LAST WEEKEND OF THE WORLD CUP??
