Jingthing Posted November 12, 2022 Share Posted November 12, 2022 (edited) Help! I'm sure I'm the only one. I understand it might be shown on Thai broadcast tvin Thai (but I don't even have Thai broadcast tv). So that leaves alternative methods. What is the simplest way (if any) for those that aren't already set up with some kind of IPTV sports package to ONLY watch the World Cup and no interest in anything else? It seems excessive to pay for some kind of subscription service for only one (albeit huge) event. About VPNs, does it need to be a paid VPN? Personally, I have an Android TV, Android phone, and PC computer. The PC or TV would be best. Is it true with a VPN on your PC you can access UK tv to Watch the World Cup for free? If so, what are the details. What about Kodi on Android TV? (Specific details?) Anything else? Edited November 12, 2022 by Jingthing 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GammaGlobulin Posted November 12, 2022 Share Posted November 12, 2022 (edited) Respectfully, I would gladly watch today's hamburger being cooked on Tuesday, rather than in real time, if it meant that I must pay for today's hamburger today. Jingthing, have you ever heard of Ham Radio? Using Ham Radio, you can, at least, listen, play by play, blow by blow. VPN used to be an option, but maybe there are now some ways of blocking users of VPNs from watching real-time coverage of sports events. Just thinking out loud, with no disrespect for anyone's obsessions, I really cannot imagine any event that might be so important to me that I would feel so compelled to watch it in real time. Here is some framework of thought that might help you: Pretend that you are on planet Neptune. And then think of the signal delay due to the speed of light. Thailand is no different. Or, please recall the good old days here in Asia, before the Fax machine became commonplace. How much immediacy do we really require to become, finally, satisfied? Don't you think that the divide between West and East has served you well, so far? Therefore, we must take the good, and be extremely grateful for it, a separate peace. Peace in Thailand is worth any number of professional sports games. Games are for children, unless they are war games. Someday, there may be a Hot War in your neighborhood. And when this happens, you will be able to to see it up close, VPN or no VPN.... So much more real than professional sports. So much more satisfying, too.

MJCM Posted November 13, 2022 Share Posted November 13, 2022 (edited) Sorry @Jingthing no viable solution here, because First off, I am totally not into Football / Soccer but I love to watch Cycling and especially the Tour de France. So last Tour I had a subscription to a streaming site The first hour or so It was oke, but near to the end it started buffering as mad, I tried everything, change servers, lower quality etc. In the end I just gave up and downloaded the race via Torrents. This site is normally very good but during sporting events you get loads and loads of people who want to watch it and thus their servers don't seem to cope. Also doesn't help that even if you have 1Gb Down / 500Mb upload with an ISP in Thailand, those speeds are only guaranteed WITHIN Thailand and as most of these Streaming sites are located some where else........

Popular Post LeungKen Posted November 13, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted November 13, 2022 I would suggest paying for a good VPN service, one that enables you to watch Australian TV. Then watch all the games on SBS TV. Stream all 64 matches of the FIFA World Cup 2022™ live and free with SBS On Demand, and watch full replays, mini-matches and highlights. Starts 21 November. https://www.sbs.com.au/ondemand/fifa-world-cup-2022 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post bamnutsak Posted November 13, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted November 13, 2022 (edited) You want to watch for free? You want to watch every match, live? You want to watch at home, where you have broadband internet access? I would definitely get a paid VPN service ASAP, maybe just spring for three months service. A reliable VPN will give you more access to more potential streams which might be geo-restricted, especially those from certified broadcast partners. Then maybe look for a short-term paid subscription from an authorized partner. Hulu, Fubu, Sling, YT TV, etc. With a reliable VPN, and a US-issued IP address, you can use USTV which is FREE, and which has FOX and FS1, which combined will show every match. https://worldsoccertalk.com/world-cup-tv-schedule/ https://ustvgo.tv/fox-hd-live-streaming/ https://ustvgo.tv/fox-sports-1/ If Thailand does not obtain broadcast rights then I'm not sure how well streaming might work.

Jingthing Posted November 13, 2022 Author Share Posted November 13, 2022 Yeah I could definitely do a Paid VPN. Any company suggestions? I was wondering if one of the free VPNs would work. Sounds like some possible solutions here. Thanks for posting about them folks. How about Kodi build info for the world cup? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, as of now, no one is "paying for the broadcast rights". That's the problem some are looking to address. 1 hour ago, Longreach said: very simple to block vpns. If you say so, then it must be true. Meanwhile in the real world we'll be watching streams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phoenix Rising Posted November 13, 2022 Share Posted November 13, 2022 I have sometimes tried watching live events using (paid) VPN's but more often than not the VPN is detected and I get blocked. I'll watch all the games live via my Android box which I pay 3000 Baht a year for. It also gives me basically any movie or series that I wanna watch.

RayWright Posted November 13, 2022 Share Posted November 13, 2022 I've found reliability issues using VPN's (Vypr, ExpressVPN & NordVPN) when accessing iPlayer, ITVHub, More4 and My5, as well as UKTV Play and ABC Australia, due to their increased monitoring of VPN providers and growing barring IP address lists. So, I've installed a PC at a techie friend's house and use TeamViewer to connect securely end to end, so no bandwidth reduction going via a VPN service provider. Once connected I'm in territory so no troubling accessing the UK TV providers. Also use ChrisPC Videotube Downloader Pro to download any programmes I might want to watch at a later date. Use Teamviewer to file transfer, or upload to Google drive and then can watch on my mobile. Simples. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a similar setup for U.S. logins but I would think watching most of the World Cup live using TeamViewer would be an abuse of our free accounts (if even possible).

So you're sure that site will run the World Cup? The only matches where Live would be more important are the U.S. ones getting to the later stages.
