    I will probably get told off for posting a thread that's probably been posted already but not my fault Kwun! I tried searcing for it and I kept getting error messages! So I've tried! Pls don't smash me to death! :p

    Anyway, does anyone know of a website link so that I can follow the game live on the net (albeit at work, sssh, don't tell my boss!). I see on the official tournament website, they only have live scoring but not actual footage of the game being showed.

    Thanks for your help,

    Adelina, gone but hopefully not too forgotten! :D

    GuangDong Sports. The one with the weird letters and a y at the end. Games start in about 20 minutes.

    You can access Guangdong Sports on Coolstreaming or PPstream. PPstream is a lot better than Coolstreaming. ALternately, you can access Starsports on Sopcast. The Starsports webcast on Sopcast is not as good and clear as Guangdong sports on PPStream but Starsports does not have as much distracting commercials (that overlaps the game) and you can record the show on Sopcast.

    At present, I am on sopcast and it it starts to go downhill, I will switch to PPStream. All the programs are loaded on my computer.

    I only hope my monitor does not break down as it was giving me problems earlier.

    Hi guys,

    Thanks for coming to this damsel in distress' rescue but unfortunately, my stupid computer which uses imac cannot read the ppstream or coolingstream set up programme because it's in the .exe format. I have real player but when I tried opening with other documents, it says I can only open with 'text' format which didn't really open anyway, and not being an IT genius, I have no idea what to do. Help?! :crying:

    Is there a step to step how to install this stuff for a DUMMY like me? :) Thanks for your help :D

    Yes, thanks for the indosiar website link, that was great except for the fact that I'm at work and although on broadband, share the internet with fellow office workers which meant watching the badminton through windows media player is super slow and sometimes there will be a pause for ages, so unfortunately, couldn't follow much of the singles action dang nabbit! :(

    Anyway, congrats Taufik for winning! :)
