I thought we get the same channels.

Just checked my streaming. The sport channels on the dish end at 241. There are a few extra channels on streaming which is probably why 199 isn't working there (yet).

We do, they've just forgotten to switch the stream connection over to the live feed. Typical DStv

Still got their command centre number, reported.

243 to 248 and 950 to 952 are always streaming only.

Looks like they're using 246, 247, 248, 950 & 951 as the Olympic extras.

Jibbers. I forgot how bad the presenters on DStv are. Pauses galore, every second word is “obviously”, every second sentence starts with “in terms of” and is then followed by rambling passages filled with waffling superlatives.

199 running on streaming now. 201 on with sound and the other channels below.

WR about to fall?

EDIT: nope

Crazy - 400m freestyle - with 100m to go you are 1sec clear of the WR split and by the time you reach the finish you're 4 secs behind. Whomever set that record wen full speedboat.

Yup, just checked.

Pity you can’t select the channel from that screen. At least the chromecast doesn’t seem to have that feature.

Not on Apple TV either. Great to see what’s going on though.

Tx. Saved me a trip to the lounge where I have the Apple TV.

Checked the iPad.
199 works there, but still can’t pick the channel.

199 main screen can't be picked from anywhere. Looks like it's what they think is best choice.

Later you'll see them switching 199 to the online OTT channels instead.

90% of the Olympics-branded stuff being sold was made in China.

Overall it was a pretty dope show for the most part apart from the drag and fashion show. Some really spectacular stuff.

Agreed people on twitter loosing their minds calling it satanic and demonic. Last supper was probably just a jab at Christianity by the art director who has probably had issues with it for obvious reasons. Still could have had the inclusive fashion show without causing all the unnecessary drama. Either way pumped for the Olympics let's hope we win our first medal today.
