NBC Olympics streaming on Mac + Safari + Silverlight
How do you watch NBC Olympics streaming video on your PC?
More than 2,000 hours of Olympics coverage across 25 sports will be streamed live via broadband on NbcOlympics.com - but Only for American citizens or people in American territory.
And you need to install Microsoft Silverlight, and that's it!
Here's how it worked for me running Firefox. First off, when I went to the site and requested a video, I saw this:
I choose "Click to Install" and then was told what would happen after I finished the install.
Moments later the download started and I saw the usual Firefox warning and query about what action to take in this situation:
I chose to save the DMG (disk image) file on a folder I have on my PC that is called Olympics.
Once it finished downloading, I had to find the Silverlight disk image file:
Then double-click it to get a disk image actually to appear on the desktop. Once I did that, I opened it and saw the installar package as show below:
Another double-click to get that going and my PC asks if I'm really sure I trust this application from Microsoft:
I say that I do, so I click "Continue" and then step through the usual windows, dialog boxes and confirmations for a software install on the PC.
After a moment the browser reloaded the video window on NBC Olympics and I was watching very nice quality streaming video in my browser. You might need to re-start your browser.
And now go and enjoy the Olympic coverage.
Note: if you are running a MAC, you can also download Microsoft Silverlight for Mac OS X directly from VersionTracker: Download Silverlight for Mac OS X.
