Where's Giro on OLN?



My Tivo didn't grab any coverage this weekend, and I there's no
upcoming programs showing up on the directory. Did they drop it just
after one weekend, or is my satellite f-ed up?

It showed, as scheduled, for two hours starting at 17:00 EDT in the US.

My VCR got it, but I actually had to intervene and tell the blasted
idiot tool to do the recording.

My DirecTV Tivo got it . I have a season pass set up for "Bicycle Racing" on
(OLN 608) that seems to do a good job. It is set to always record an extra
hour. Right now it is shows two upcoming episodes, next Saturday and Sunday.
For what is worth the OLN streaming video, 6 bucks for 13 stages, watched
live in conjunction with Eurosport's streaming audio paused for about 20
seconds to bring them into sync is a winner.

Anyone out there gotten a linux client to play any of the Giro video feeds?
Which client? Tell me more.

No joy, here.

I haven't tried it, but mplayer seems to do a fairly good job of handling
MS format stuff (at least what I have tried).

If you're running Fedora Core 3 you can use yum to get the prebuilt
binaries. Let me know if you need the info for the yum.conf file to
do that.
