Badminton Clip My Horse

I was in the same boat when I first tried to watch but now seem to be in and haven’t gotten prompted to buy a subscription since I restarted the stream about five horses ago.

I’m guessing something had to be “turned on” for accounts that got imported from Badminton TV.

So I’m finally in as well! :clap::crossed_fingers:

I’m trying to ignore my laptop, worrying that if I stare directly at it: POOF! the video will stop, and it will take me right back to the subscription page

I finally got on just as they were finishing and thought I heard that a couple of horses were not accepted:

Luc Chateau and Viens du Mont
Georgia Bartlett and Spano de Nazca

Ben Hobday withdrew Shadow Man from the holding box.

Okay, now that we’ve all missed the jog , , , does anyone know if it will be archived, and if so, does the Badminton season pass cover that? Supposedly, according to CMH’s Badminton info page, “you can enjoy full coverage, highlights and videos live and on demand.”
Edited to add: I’ve gone to the CMH archive and there’s nothing there. It could be too soon . . . or maybe we just can’t get replays/archived content.
Even though I was finally able to see the last few horses today, I’d like to test it out somehow before another fiasco unfolds tomorrow morning. My account setting lists all my information correctly, with an active Badminton season pass, but . . .

It’s showing up on mine now to rewatch.

Thanks! And for those of you like me, who may not be great at navigating these things, here’s how I found the replay of the jog. Hint: It wasn’t in “Archive.”
Go to “Filter for Event” and select “Badminton.” You’ll see a box to the right that says “Mars Badminton Horse Trials 2025.”
Click on that and scroll down past the array of thumbnail photos to “Time Schedule/Horse List.”
The first item listed (as of now, Wednesday afternoon) is “Horse Inspection.” Look to the far right and click the button that says “Watch Now.”
You can even select a specific horse and watch just that clip, which is convenient.
Wow, it kills me to say that something nice about Clip My Horse.

Showing up on mine too–I like this coverage of the jog too–multiple angles and you can find individual horses pretty easily.

Fair play to CMH–they fixed whatever was happening (relatively) quickly. I hope everything else goes that smoothly.

How is it advertised as £21.99 then on CMH it’s £25.99??

Grappa Nera’s lower muzzle whiskers appear white. quite an unusual look on a mostly black head.

The stream seems to be working well this morning. I’m trying to figure out who is announcing dressage. I’m liking them much better than what they had at Kentucky. It’s not constant happy talk.

I think the “guest” announcers were Nicola for the first set, then Felix Vogg, and now Piggy(?).

I bought the pass and haven’t had an issue this morning yet. I’m assuming we can go back and watch the dressage the Americans will miss?

Great to hear Piggy. Wish she was riding though!

When I clicked on it this morning, this was what they showed me – it’s been interrupted by commercials and is counting down, what gives?

Lunch break, next horse in about 10 minutes

Ahhh :+1:

Phew! Good to know, I’m not crazy, thanks –are replays available?

Is there a way to watch for free? I logged into CMH like I did for KY and it says I need to join.

If you go to www.eventingscores.co.uk the scores are live. No pictures though! I’ve spent a few days watching little green squares move along a line.

live stream is by subscription. but you can get the CMH subscription for this event alone.
If the damn thing works, the price is not unreasonable.

Not sure if anyone noticed this on the CMH site, but live events are now FREE. Membership allows you to watch replays on demand, but you can watch most events in real time for no fee.

I also got the notice that my Badminton membership was “renewed” but then it showed a discount next to the charge and a $0 payment? When I contacted CMH, it took days to get a response which said:

*As of this year, BadmintonTV has merged with ClipMyHorse.TV. We’ve previously tried to inform you of this change via email. [THEY DID NOT]

As part of this transition, we have also taken over responsibility for managing memberships, including contracts and payments.

We would like to let you know that your BadmintonTV pass was successfully renewed on 15-April-2025. This gives you full access to the Badminton Horse Trials event starting on May 7th 2025, as well as on-demand access to all related content for one year following the event.
There was no charge, because you already payed last year.

I’m not sure what that means that I already paid last year. As far as I’m aware I was charged when I signed up for the 2024 stream but didn’t see anything after that…

In any case, going forward I’m just going to plan on watching the livestream for free rather than give CMH my money.
