They are carrying out some sort of maintenance, could be something to do with that.

Hope it sorted itself for you @roadrash. If you don't mind me asking, does it allow you In Demand style viewing?

Basically, I would like to watch the cycling from the night before, during my lunch hour.

is it any better for coverage than eurosport ? many a time i have recorded cycling and you get golf/tennis etc .

Yes.

No because it is just Eurosport's live channels being streamed via your browser (unless you watch something that is "on demand". So you get whatever is being broadcast.

its back on the tablet now, as rob3rt said it does allow in demand style viewing, and its just the same as normal eurosport as regards programme schedules ,

Yes.

Cool. Cheers.

It just annoys me when i record something called cycling and get another sport entirely .

That is because they schedule based on predicted timings, live sports sometimes over run etc and if an event (particularly a higher profile event) over runs, they will continue coverage. It can be annoying, but imagine you had Sat through 90 mins of a cycling event that had gone on longer than expected for some reason and it was now in the final few km and they stuck to their schedule and knocked it off before the end in favour of the ping pong world championships or something...

Similarly sometimes they are at the mercy of the coverage providers who may not deliver on time etc, hence they end up filling gaps. Like yesterday the Tour of Catalunya footage came through late.
