Thanks for doing this. Our local feeds are unsurprisingly not doing AD, at least through the app so I really appreciate being able to switch to a described feed because noone else in the house is interested in watching.
@pitermach our terrestrial TV only works if next door aren't running a washing machine, dryer or dishwasher. Any vibration along the wall and the signal goes. We don't care 99 times out of a hundred because we stream nearly everything.
@cachondo @pitermach When @MoonCat and I used to watch #EastEnders, just near the end of the episode almost without fail, a motorbike would go passed our house and it was at the Duffduffs, so you'd miss the most important bit. happened too often to be coincidence. We had a Netgem freeview box at the time. I remember it very clearly.
@johann @cachondo I'm sure you can find it on your country's tv channel(s) of choice. It's only an opening ceremony anyway, not the world's most exciting event. I shouldn't bother about it honestly.
GOod lord the difference between the brawdcasts of the US and the UK is insulting. We're breaking for ads every couple minutes, missing huge chunks in the process. Intolerable. Thank you for this service. I feel like I should chip in something for your trouble!
@stirlock whenever the rugby is on ITV, we get a break after the anthums and before kickoff. Really spoils the atmosphere. But I guess we've been lucky to get the beeb for all these years. Their comparatively poor olympic coverage this year compared to the paid channels is sad.
@cachondo @stirlock I know what annoyed me during Euro 2024 on ITV, when the national anthems were played, then the commentator would say "the match of team A versus team B, next". Come on! Just start the bloody thing!
