Now, I know I m going to be criticised for saying this, especially by the Pirate TV lovers who are still resentful that True has had the audacity to protect their legitimately broadcast signals from bootleggers and the like, but credit where credits due,the coverage of the Olympics from London has been amazing!!

In fact, so much live sport on so many channels that its difficult to decide what to watch next (although I do draw a line at Dressage, Water Polo and Synchronised Swimming!!). True has taken so much (quite a lot of it justified) criticism, but at least with the Olympics theyve got it totally right. Hope this is a sign of things to come with big events in the future after all the furore of the Euros.

For those of you who have it, the High Definition images are breathtaking, I m sure you will agree, so just for a change, lets say well done to True on this one, long may this new approach continue.

It's true that the HD channels are so much more evocative that watching other events on standard definition is actually painful.

And all for the price of a daily small beer,,,,,,,what a bargain!

Twenty four hours of non stop entertainment for 50 Baht, compared to glug glug.....all gone......where's the loo?

Believe this would do better in General topics rather than specific to Chiang Mai

Just in case anyone doesn't have True and wants to watch the Olympics, their is an official YouTube channel with every event live and recap videos of all events. It's pretty dam_n awesome..

I was pissed yesterday as I was trying to watch the Basketball, USA vs France and they only showed the first quarter. Luckily I jumped on the computer and found a live stream.

But what is the point of just showing 1 quarter and not the full game?

The rest has been ok for me.

The coverage is garbage they chop and change in the middle of events

What channel does true show the olympics on? I don't have the full package so have only seen it on the Thai free channels

Lots of Olympic stuff here.
