Olympic Games Live UK Only · **Released**: 08-07-2008

With the Olympic Games officially opening on 08/08/08 I decided to throw together this product which a embedded stream to watch the Olympics live.

The stream is supplied from the BBC website and i've used an iframe to pull it to embed in my forum, see the demo for more informtion. The Official Ceremony is at 1pm GMT 08/08/08.

My intentions of making this for me and my members was for work times and most of my members are from the uk.

Installation is very simple and no template edits are needed unless you want to add a link to your navbar. It automatically adds a link to "quick links" Full instructions are included.

Demo: http://www.whatsyourview.net/olympic_games.php

This was thrown together in minutes and is very first product so go easy on me!

If the response for this is good then I will update and expand it with schedules and break the links down into languages etc.

UPDATED:
Embedded the stream so its viewable on your forum as you can see with the demo.

UPDATED 1.2:
embedded the stream from bbc website so commentary is in english and stream is stable.

To upgrade simply overwrite the old files and overwrite the product in admincp, no need to uninstall.

updated the mod to embed the stream and also lists external streams so members have a choice. At the time of posting the stream embedded was showing the opening ceremony, i may need to update this tomorrow with further better streams as it starts showing live events so be sure to click install for updates

Is it possible to make the English stream the default one?
