Just renewed my suscription for a month a couple of days ago to watch LM, watched some tennis and quality was good.

Well, I was wrong with the Eurosport quality, it's only 1800kbps
In my 21" monitor it looks good, but just tried on my 24" and it's pretty bad if you are close (desk). No HD anymore on their player, just SD, which is no worth a 6€ suscription IMO, it's about the same quality as the WEC free stream. I'm a little bit disappointed...

I have just subscribed to Eurosport to watch the race today but am unable
to locate anything to do with Le Mans.

Could you possibly advise please ?

Thanks. Is there going to be a standalone stream for Le Mans anyway? This was the case when I last time used it (2011). Also if I remember correctly the HD feed option varies locally?

6e isn't much imho, when you divide it by the hours (and not only the race hours, plus other sessions).

There was a standalone stream last year too, I assume that there will be one this year too whenever a session/the race is running.

Will there be a WEC stream. It was OK for Spa.

No proof of official fiawec.com streaming, Audi TV might be just onboards. So alternative would be this:

http://tensport.com.au/motorsport-live-streaming.htm
(or http://tensport.com.au/lemans-live-streaming.htm)

Instructions: http://tentenths.com/forum/showpost....26&postcount=9

^ Might be smart to do that trick for example right now, and not about 2½ minutes before the race.

They'll cover the whole race, switching between Eurosport and Europort 2, in the player I think you'll have to do that manually.
Here is more info : http://tv.eurosport.com/sports-car/l...37/story.shtml

Yes I know it's worth it, I was just a little mad when I saw no HD and overreacted
I'm in Spain and there is no HD here AFAIK, also (don't know about UK) I'm almost sure that we'll have to switch manually between Eurosport and Eurosport2.

No free official stream I'm affraid., I used that exapmle to give people an idea about Eurosport player image quality before they suscribe.

[Adam43]

Thanks for the info. I would probably have Eurosport anyway to double my chances, but now I know I have to!

They streamed it last year and it was great for the whole race, so fingers crossed, they will be doing the same again this year. (plus RLM of course)

AWESOME!

I just came to this thread to ask if Ten were doing it again, seeing as though a quick check of the tv guide reveals no joy (im guessing Speed Aus have the rights). Many thanks for the great news guys, Im gonna watch this stream and have RLM running as audio over it

[Tim the Grey]

Jake's headed out today.
So that's the DSC and lendurance tweet stream on the way!

The way I read your post I am thinking that you might not realise the race is next weekend and not the one just gone! Try again on Saturday afternoon and you will find it.

[Aysedasi]

Not everybody is here at Le Mans already!

Confirmed that there will NOT be a stream on the FIA WEC Site. Speed and Eurosport own the rights for video and RadioLeMans for English Audio.

All other serives like Audi TV, Corvette, Nismo TV will have streaming commentary an insight, but will not show track action

Note, RLM will be on XM Sirus for race day in North America.

[Lagunaseca_4life]

Thanks for the info, I guess I'll just use the tune in radio app at work.

I get what you mean, but this sentence makes no sense unless you're really saying local European channels buy the rights from Eurosport?

unfortunately, it's been said there'll be none of the images from the international signal
probably worth a look, though

Read it again. Only studio feed + onboards + interviews etc.

Tensport geoblock trick update:

http://tentenths.com/forum/showpost....26&postcount=9

The domain setting might have to be brightcove.com (instead of movideo.com), so the screenshot in above is wrong. It has recently changed for the ondemand videos at least. You can test with this:

http://tensport.com.au/motorsport-vi...=2464953856001

This instruction is now getting messy thanks to not being able to edit old posts, so I will repost this at some point. Altought don't know yet where is exactly on the site the stream is going to be (only have this one from last year, could be the same).

Once again this year I'm keeping a roundup of all the various streams and things on my couch kit. Updated throughout the week:
