Are there no streams anywhere?

 

[Sali]

well there are some websites, but I think they are not for free. Anyway the competition starts in 40 minutes. Maybe then we will find something. Ittv does not cover it.

Although I cannot watch it in Germany due to "location restrictions" (need to activate Proxy) there are two live tables available here: http://www.nbcolympics.com/

do you watch via VPN? How much does it cost to register an account in NBC?

 

[Sali]

I do not understand where is ITTF, they should promote table tennis. This is the biggest even and we cannot watch it.

there is a website:

They ask for credic card just for validation. Anybody used it? Is it trustworthy?

Nobody who asks for a CC for validation is trustworthy.

dude olympics are owned by companies not ITTF. There are too many money on the stack to let someone buy it cheap, you have to buy the TV rights to broadcast, its not ITTF's fault , olympic events are a multimillion business

The olympic committee has the first call on what to do with their sports at THEIR event, not the federations

I highly recommend trying a VPN for your smartphone / tablet. You can try for example PIA VPN and F-Secure Freedome typically for 14-30 days for free. Just select a country that shows the streams and you are set. For example Finland and the Finnish National Broadcast agency YLE shows ALL the Rio live streams via their mobile app. You should be able to download it and use via VPN without problems... except maybe the language
