Worlds 2024 Rhythm Dance: ‘Dance me to the end of RoLi’

[Jay42]

Mark: "the first of 2 british ice dance teams"
Me: wait there are 2???

apparently my brain has just pushed fear/gibson out of it

I fully forgot Fear/Gibson leading up to Europeans in January so that's fair.

 

[Karen-W]

My YT stream wasn't loading when I turned the VPN on so I'm really glad that Peacock made it back in time for this group.

 

[Rukia]

i have no idea what his leg was doing in those twizzles but he stayed on one foot so slay i guess

Why? If there's a problem with the transmission from the host to Peacock/other providers, there's nothing that can really be done.

It wouldn't be the first time Canadian event streaming and wiring has caused problems, just saying.

So the VPN viewers seem to have sound. Don't defend the cheap vendor USFS went with.

Is this a “Blame Canada” post?

Because it’s already established that it’s an American Peacock issue.

 

[Karen-W]

It seems that the 'Cock lost commentary. Hmph. I really enjoy the commentary during ice dance since I'm in no-teknik.

 

[marbri]

Now this is a music edit with no understanding of the 80's. Barbara has really outdone herself this year.

 

[MacMadame]

Well, I suck because I don't know how to use VPN. I wonder if the Peacock rebroadcast will also be f'd up.

We'll walk you through it. First step: do you have chrome or opera?

It's not her program

Coach: Barbara Fusar-Poli, Nora Hoffmann
Music: Boys Total Eclipse of the Heart, Push It

Sequential Twizzles W:4 M:4
Pattern Dance Type Step Sequence 2 (1 after review)
Midline Step Sequence W:2 M:3
Straight Line Lift 4
Choreo Rhythm Sequence

A bit of an issue on the choreo rhythm sequence towards the end of the program. I look forward to what this team might achieve next season when Barbara's had a chance to work with them.

64.59 = 2nd Place

Me too. I've temporarily moved back to Singapore (VPN).

 

[peibeck]

Peacock sort of back with one camera angle, muted weird sound and no commentary. Welp, better than nothing.

 

[AngieNikodinovLove (ANL)]

So now, no sound and the cameras are dead?

 

[Carolla5501]

Well they know lost sound all together again. but I see the commentary is back by the subtitles that just appeared. Our options appear to be "no sound" or no commentary and they are apparently voting no sound. What a disaster this company is... and they have the Olympic games this summer...

Thanks. Um, Google Chrome browser, but I don't think that is what you mean...

 

[AngieNikodinovLove (ANL)]

Is this guy really skating in a pair of jeans?

 

[Frau Muller]

Don’t mess it up - just one more team before Japanese Ghostbusters!!!!!

 

[Wyliefan]

Peacock came back before I could figure out which country to set Opera to. But given that we're now having more sound issues, I might have to figure it out pretty soon.

 

[marbri]

It's not her program

Well she is sitting there with them allowing them to skate to it so I still blame her

 

[airgelaal]

Living in Ukraine has its benefits. I can watch without any problems!

 

[Rukia]

if you're not comfortable with technology I highly recommend installing opera. There's a little vpn button on the address bar to turn on the vpn and set it to Europe. This should work to watch the isu feed.

Have the cameras malfunctioned? No more kiss and cry camera

 

[tony]

I don't think it's Peacock at this point, and I'll tell you why.

We are seeing a camera panning to the ice slowly while the replays play on the ISU YouTube feed. It's like the connection between what should be sent directly through to Peacock isn't there and now they are getting some alternate feed instead. It's not as if Peacock has their own producers that are directing this broadcast. They are just using a feed supplied by the ISU that is giving them troubles.

 

[just tuned in]

Peacock should heist the VPN stream.

 

[Sally1214]

First Babs sighting for me during this event. She's the "queen of the knee-slappers." Gotta love her ...

 

[Colonel Green]

Do the younguns even know what MTV is?

 

[Karen-W]

Thanks. Um, Google Chrome browser, but I don't think that is what you mean...

With a Chrome browser you can add the FreeVPN extension. Then, you pick a country - I'm in Singapore.

 

[MacMadame]

Thanks. Um, Google Chrome browser, but I don't think that is what you mean...

Yes. Go to Extension and select the store. There should be an extension to add a free VPN

 

[ignosk8er]

This is THE most difficult sport to follow. Every single possible thing they can cock up they do. With relish it seems. Not even including the SA accusations…

But hey, a dance party at the Olys will resolve it all right?

oh … now the cock suddenly shows up just in time to listen to scratchy horrid 80s pop music for a few seconds and then the audio drops out. I give up
