ACK! Lost the Universal stream. Any alternative?
Ugh my feed just cut out. This is the second night in a row this is happening. Not thrilled having paid for this.
Dear Universal Sports,
I hate you.
Seriously?! cutting out right before the end?! So annoyed.
Yeah for Hickstead!!! Horse of the Games!!!
Belgium - Gold
Saudi - Silver
Canada - Bronze (with broken foot Eric!!!)
Too bad I could not see anything, but thanks to Coth Molly and Coree, could follow the rounds!
Universal is still televising. Philipe wins gold.

I got kicked off and couldn’t see the last two rounds :mad:
Hickstead = best horse ever!!!
He should get the gold medal
Universal Sports TV channel. Replaying it at 11:30 PM… but I’d bet the VOD will be available online by then…
WOOHOO! Yay Hickstead! Congratulations Phillipe! I saw wonderful sportsmanship, great riding, amazing horseflesh :D!!
It was on television tonight. Don’t know why people bothered with the internet feed. I tried to tell you
Congrats to Phillipe! Really love the way he rides. and of course Hickstead, what an outstanding horse!
What happened with Rodrigo and Philipe’s horse? I would have seen it but the live feed(that I payed for >( cut out…bitter.

So it wasn’t just my computer!! Right when Rodrigo started to go into the ring.
Did anybody get to see what happened?
The feed came back on for a minute but I really wanted to watch the award ceremony. Then it froze again and switched to men’s volleyball? Grrr.
I loved that Rodrigo had a long chat with the guy who ended up third (cannot for the life of me spell his name haha!) before he rode his horse. I thought that was such a display of horsemanship and I also loved when Phillipe went over and was kissing and hugging his own horse. Unfortunately I didn’t see the last two trips either, but I know Rodrigo had eight faults. Congrats to all of them for great riding and those horses were SO nice!
Sundown, Rodrigo had two super stupid faults, fairly easy jumps (only at that level, lol), one vertical and one oxer, I think. Both single jumps. He’s still my favorite rider. Makes every jumper look like he could win a hunter class.
I can’t believe Universal just switched to men’s volleyball before they did the medal ceremony! I too missed Rodrigo’s 4th round due to the feed cutting out - what happened?

Yep. Already sent Universal Sports an ugly email. Have missed quite a lot of competition due to their technical difficulties. Then to turn off the coverage right before the medal ceremony!?!?! HORRIBLE.
Rodrigo had 2 rails and Philipe went clean again. I think its based on time, the program was scheduled from 8 pm to 9:30 and so the internet feeds cuts off at that time. I have learned the hard way to always set my DVR to record the next program as well, that way if the WEG runs over the allowed time, it still gets recorded, even though its labeled “Volleyball.”
I’m sorry they didn’t show the medal ceremony but I’m glad they showed Philipe hugging his horse, I wonder if he was thanking him for having those 2 rails down with another rider?
FEI TV still on showing awards. Abdullah just ear-to-ear grinning as well he should be! He rode brilliantly all night long!
The “extra” prizes being award now… A year’s supply of feed supps, etc etc

I lost mine just as Rodrigo was warming up the mare.
Seems their advertisements are all working perfect, it just won’t play the content I actually paid for. Awesome.
Now it’ll open, but it won’t let me go back to the beginning of the competition where it cut out.
