Watching in US - Cable Cutters Unite!

FYI this worked for me.
I use roku (no fee, but you need to purchase a roku unit … perhaps doing the below in a laptop will work ).
I signed up for the $10 SLING TV trial
I added NBC sports app to my roku
The NBC sport app on roku gave me a code and website to visit.
I punched in that I use a roku, I then punched in the given code… the website then asks for my TV provider, I scrolled down and clicked on Sling TV… the website then asks for me to enter my sling TV email address and Pass word.

I am currrently watching a replay of the dressage grand prix special from earlier today

Good luck!

I did the same, using Hulu. Pretty amazing to be able to play back in it’s entirety. Lucinda Greens commentary is lovely. Now, if I can figure out how to jump forward without messing up the sound…overall small issue. Adding if you have a smart TV that doesn’t need Roku you can download the NBC Sports app directly on your TV then follow the same steps as above less then Roku piece.

I am also using the Hulu Live free week & NBC Sports sign in, and I am not having an issue with fast-forwarding through the breaks. I am forever grateful to the poster who found this solution!

I don’t see why they can’t have delayed replay with ads. or pay per event. So irritating.

I can forward watching the replays on the TV (Roku with Hulu sign on NBC Sports app) just not my iPad. Truly a first world problem.

That’s what the app has. Replay with ads.

Thank you for this tutorial! Watching the freestyle replay now!

I did the $10 Sling subscription and was able to log in to NBC sports with that login! The commercials are driving me nuts, I haven’t had cable in YEARS and it’s been so long since I’ve had to watch ads :joy: like ENOUGH

At the least some variety would be nice. I’ve seen the same three ads many many times And I couldn’t even tell you what the quinceañera one is advertising.

The ads seem to be different per user and somewhat location based.

For example, I haven’t seen the quincenera one at all. But today I’ve seen the Black Rifle Coffee ad about 101 times (or so it feels).

Haven’t seen that one. The other two in heavy rotation involve racing avocados and food delivery to a swimming pool. Unfortunately, the cat-Chevy one only appears when I watch regular NBC on my TV.

So odd. I keep getting the Toyota concept karaoke ad. Over and over and over.

For some reason, although NBC Sports equestrian coverage wouldn’t work on my laptop, and blocked me, the app I downloaded on my phone is…I have the cross-country on it right now!

Does anyone know how long the Olympic replays will be available via Roku after the Games are over. I am so hopelessly behind- still finishing the dressage individual final replay :wink: It’s not helping that the ability to fast forward is spotty at best, and Roku is not always bringing me back to where I left off so sometimes I’m having to start over from the beginning and try to remember where I stopped watching to try to fast forward. Yes, I get it: First World Equestrian Problems! But I do want to watch as much as possible before it disappears.

Just back from vacation - does nbc sports have the full streams of the equestrian events? So if I signed up for Hulu live will I be able to watch some complete events in replay? I don’t want to pay $65 just for some highlight reels…

Firestick is the solution. There are many channels which show these Olympics. Here are some ideas - https://www.firesticktricks.com/watch-tokyo-olympics-firestick.html. Olympic channel has probably the best coverage. My husband prefers Peacock.

I have Hulu. It’s been great. Logged in once on each of our TVs using our username and password and I’ve been able to watch all the replays on the NBC Sports app. Just filter by Equestrian. Several others used the Sling $10 trial for the first month. Works the same as I understand.

Thank you. Maybe I will upgrade my Hulu for a week! :grimacing:

I am using the services without any issues with due help of Roku. One can try this and enjoy the streaming.
