thank you mikemike...will that be on GDTV station or CCTV5??..thx:)

[mikemike]

no live schedule on GDTV and CCTV5

[event]

Yes, GDTV's schedule is up for next week and shows no badminton. CCTV-5 doesn't give me any TV schedule for next week and I can't read the full text stuff on the site. For those of you who must depend on web broadcasts, the bad news is that SBS is only showing 2 hours of badminton per day next week and that means 3-5PM on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. That's what all the badminton sites say, anyway. There is actually nothing about the Korea Open on the SBS website itself, nor on a site that gives the overall TV listings. MBC did the same thing last year. Their commentators packed up and went home and the broadcasting company showed Australian Open tennis instead of the men's doubles final in the Korea Open.

I don't understang what they wrote...All in korean language....So what is the Malaysia time???

[tbleong]

any live at Malaysia?

[tbleong]

jessica., go to this site.english;;;;www.koreaopen.or.kr/info/ (http://www.koreaopen.or.kr/info/)

[Jessica]

Thanks a lot...tbleong...

[event]

I don't understang what they wrote...All in korean language....So what is the Malaysia time???The only link above to anything in Korean is the URL for the SBS homepage and there is no information about the Korea Open there in any language. On the other hand, mikemike seems to have translated the schedule into English for us on the badmintonworld.org page for which he included the link.

If, for some reason, you did want to see the schedule posted in Korean, it is here (http://www.badmintontimes.com/article/articleRead.jsp?menunum=5&no=2277). All the times are Korean Time, or 9 hours ahead of GMT. If you don't know your time zone relative to GMT, open the clock on your Windows desktop and find it on the list. It should be right there near where it says (GMT +9:00) Seoul.

The tournament website says that last year (http://www.koreaopen.or.kr/about/summary.asp), the Open was shown on Astro, SCV in Singapore, and CCTV and others. Hopefully that will be true again this year so that not everyone's viewing hours will be limited to SBS's six hours.

event! thanks, but i think there is no live show in Malaysia!

[Dreamzz]

[Loh]

Singapore will be able to enjoy the Korea Open Finals live on cable vision (Super Sports ?) at 12 pm Singapore time this Sunday.

Will we be seeing event in person? ;)

great, thanks i'll have a look then ...

Will we be seeing event in person?Hopefully the camera operators will have the decency not to inflict that horror on any viewers.;) You might hear me if you listen carefully, though.

Horror? Of course not!

I thought it is easier and more meaningful to associate the voice with the face and vice versa. One without the other leaves one in want and clueless. ;)

However, could you leave at least a hint as to how you would sound over the air? High pitch, low pitch, quick-paced or with an American drawl or typical Queens English accent (sorry I don't know how Canadian English sounds like but I presume you'll be speaking in English and not Korean? Certainly not Korean English like our Singlish?) :D

Good Luck! :)

Certainly not Korean English like our Singlish?)The only English you'll hear over the PA will be me. If you hear a woman's voice in English that will mean I'm temporarily away from my post. I don't know how well the PA stuff comes through on TV, though, and during the finals, we only announce 5 matches, quite possibly while you're watching commericials.

Canadian English is somewhere in between American drawl and the queen's English. We never get mistaken for Brits but often for Americans. Americans say they can tell us from words like "about", which they claim sounds like "a boat" when we say it. That's usually an exaggeration but our dipthong basically goes ah-oo or uh-oo instead of a-oo.

thank you mike, you are better than c5:)

[hara^kazuko]

event! thanks, but i think there is no live show in Malaysia!

Really? someone assumes that the final will be shown

[ctjcad]

...for those interested, you guys can download a free broadband tv network program from TVU...After installing, you should find the KNNSBS (Korean channel) in there..good luck-:)
Here's the link to the TVU website : http://www.tvunetworks.com/downloads/index.htm

BTW, for North American continent viewers:
1st match today (QF) starts at 2 PM Korea time, which means, time difference from Korea to:
U.S. (West Coast) - minus 4 hrs. = 10 PM PST

enjoy!!:)

[ctjcad]

sorry, correction:
according to the SBS(Sports) website, it will start broadcasting at 3PM til 5 PM Korea time, not at 2 PM, which means 11 PM PST til 1 AM PST...

..which some of you guys probably know abt, which can be accessed WITHOUT having to download any player/programs is :
www.viidoo.com
I believe it has the same channels as the TVU Player...good luck-:)

[Jessica]

what is the Malaysia time???Anyone know

[ctjcad]

what is the Malaysia time???Anyone know
S'pore/Malaysia is minus 1 hr back from Korea time, which means if the live broadcast starts at 3 PM, then it'll be 2 PM S'pore/Malaysian time...;)

[Jessica]

Thanks a lot ctjcad....

[Wildstone]

so does anyone see the live on air ?
I only see news going on ... am i on the right channel ?

[Jessica]

Where you get it???I can't see anything and the channel stuck there...I am watching from the badminton world web but i can't see anything...

[wynn000]

ya ya me too ??

[Wildstone]

I downloaded the program here http://www.viidoo.com/ and opened knnsbs
but it's just news and weather
i guess it isn't the right channel

[CaesarZ]

None of the channels are working.

Its supposed to be shown on SBS sports and KNNSBS is obviously not the sports channel because its showing weather, news and now some kind of travel program.

Mike's webpage shows a screen that says the SBS channel is not subscribed and to contact customer services.

[tbleong]

I Not Even Download The The Program,, Any Wrong With The Software??

[Jessica]

Then we can't watch it right???

Sorry again guys for wrong link..:p:o :( I thought it was the same channel which was mentioned earlier (KNN SBS), but it turned out not to be..On that note, i guess our only source to watch the live web broadcast of the KO is thru TVAnts...:p ;)

[Schaphro]

If anyone has a way to stream (using tvants or viidoo or any other way, doesn't matter) this tournament please post so the rest of us can enjoy.

Thanks.

[ctjcad]

mikemike,
what's going on with the TVAnts broadcast of the KO??..a couple of my friends tried to access and watch the broadcast, but for some reason it won't work. Instead it shows a msg saying something like "To subscribe contact customer service etc."...Are we doing something wrong?? how come we can't get it to work??...:p
sorry again for the hassle and thanks for your help- :)

Mike had already stated the reason for the failed broadcast on the other forum. Apparently theres a problem with connecting it with Skylive and he tried to contact the Korean side but because it is weekend now so it wont be solved until at least monday so there wont be any broadcast.

[Jessica]

We can't watch it...so sad...
