Where is the red button then ?

Why arent bbc providing interactive coverage ?

[Peter147]

That's strange. It's working for me.

Just wanted to post something similar. I checked the live coverage schedule

They should show snooker, but I can't find anything. I thought it was because of my French IP.
German Eurosport is also supposed to broadcast online starting in 15 min, but I don't know which IPs they accept.

BBC2. Just press the red button and select "SPORT MULTISCREEN" then press number 1 for the Robertson/Michie match and number 2 for Ebdon/Song.

Sheer luck!

Ehm, changed the time settings, plopped in a proxy and voilá.

Direct links:
Robertson v Michie BB WMV http://www.bbc.co.uk/newsa/n5ctrl/sp...l_now4a_bb.asx

Ebdon v Liu BB WMV

Hope they work. They seem to be very temperamental and frankly nowhere as high quality as during the Worlds.

What proxy did you choose?

[Ekphantos]

Bad luck over here, did the same as Maija, but it doesn't seem to work

BBC2. Just press the red button and select "SPORT MULTISCREEN" then press number 1 for the Robertson/Michie match and number 2 for Ebdon/Song.

Thankyou. I think it was just me being dense and panicking.

I open the links in WinAmp, it takes forever and a week to load, but right now I've got a brilliant view of Neil Robertson looking disgusted with himself.
