Excluding XC? Dumb

They are writing for British readers, where the Beeb have the rights for CC and jumping.

Too bad it can’t all be on the Burghley site. I haven’t ever been able to get a VPN to work for Burghley on my phone to watch the xc phase.

I know, it sucks. Trying to grow a sport and make it impossible to watch live :frowning:

Unlocator.

We know that it can be viewed live in GB. We just don’t know yet if we can see it in the USA, but you are doing a brilliant job in persuading them to show you their event.

I cannot remember if Burghley is view able on FEI. Or Horse and Country? I understand why they would block it locally to make people go to the event, but for the rest of the world, I do agree it is very frustrating.

They are doing a good job persuading me to sit at home at watch instead of go out and do barn chores,not

I just asked LRBHT if they have live coverage of the entire event available for the USA.

Their answer;
“yes it is, please keep an eye an our FB page we will be putting details up imminently. Kind regards LRBHT”

Was available in the USA last year through a live feed on Facebook. Worked pretty well. I would bet it will be again. It doesn’t look listed on FEI TV or Horse&Country.

Millstreet is on FEI TV this Weekend. And a lot of WEG will be on FEI TV.

Well,I just looked at the website, and it looks like FB won’t be broadcasting on Saturday. Why in the world do they do that? If they want to charge, then charge. I know it must be very expensive to put out all those cameras, but for cryin out loud, it seems like we go through this every year!
