Frigging fragging. I can’t get NBC’s feed at all. USA network claims to have it but they have table tennis on.

Signed up for sling blue but not seeing where it will show eventing anywhere. :([/QUOTE]
Scroll on the top of the window (the side to side scroll) through the channel icons and select USA. It is listed as equestrian at nine and equestrian, table tennis at noon – but we are getting only table tennis at the moment. 
If anyone knows another way to get it through sling please post! I’m about ready to look into one of those ways to get around geoblocking.
I just saw someone post on fb that William Fox-Pitt passed away. I’m assuming something happened and that is why they are not televising eventing at this point.
I FINALLY am getting it on the computer only!!! They LIED!!!
At the start of the USA broadcast, they listed five or six events that would be covered in the next eight hours–table tennis is up first but equestrian is next. I think it’ll be like the dressage coverage yesterday, where they just drop in for whatever is happening between commercial breaks. Sigh.
And clearly ping pong is much more entertaining than watching horses gallop over giant things cross-country.
it IS streaming live. It was a few minutes late. Simon P Irish horse had a cracking fall at the awful palm fence. hind legs caught and Italian nearly did too but he stopped.
So sling is showing me ping pong…does anyone have advice on getting into the NBC site? My parents sent me their info but it wasn’t working.
I can say, I am watching online. TV is still out I don’t know if it is streaming thru the web site. but I am getting it. Gemma T had a stop in the water.
Dutchman fell at the gate, Tim P had a slip/fall not at the fence. Sandra had a run out in the water.
boyd thru the bogey fence
Any idea if we’ll be able to watch replays for free? Having an awful time getting things to stream, I’ve just thrown in the towel, and hope to catch it later.
Just to clarify the different table tennis comments – I’m stuck watching TV coverage but through Sling, so I have no live feed access – but once the American’s table tennis match was over, the Sling/USA via internet coverage did go to xc. Hurray!
Agree about Melanie S-T. Actually she seems to be trying to add a little more specific commentary, but she just lacks some oomph.
French team is impressive! And seem to be enjoying themselves - wtg!
If anyone has Comcast, the Xfinity TV app, the video is clearer than nbc’s app. It’s the USA channel.

There are replays, but they don’t work if you try to fast forward.
If anyone figures out how to get around geoblocking, please send me a PM. Wish there was a way to pay for BBC coverage here in the US.
The Sling worked really well this morning. There was a second of buffering about twice and one slightly longer interval. I watched it on my computer. I experimented with sending from my computer to my TV via AirPlay to AppleTV (have third generation AppleTV so cannot download Sling app so as to be able to do it directly on the TV) and double-sending it was apparently too burdensome for my WiFi–glitchy and then died entirely.
