How watch live World Cup 2010 on Droid Incredible

[ponchera]

With 30 days left, thought I could get this rolling.

Now that we have a powerfull (battery hogging) phone and several good browser options (Dolphin HD, Skyfire), any suggestions on how to get live feed of the games into DINC? Free or Paid, lets hear it.

I support this thread. Would love to find a way to watch some games!!!

I'll update the OP as I find options and folks suggest.

is there any updates on this topic. i need to watch the games on my phone Live at 9 30 AM eastern time.

Why not just download uStream and find the feeds on there?

They are sure to be everywhere. uStream is how I watched it a few years back at work.

So is ustream the best option? I'm so excited 2 more weeks!

does the ustream app even work on the incredible, mine just shows a white screen when playing a video.

any update on this

I am curious about this as well.
I can't wait to decrease my productivity at work hehehe.

 

[alison03]

me too. I've been checking out the app store but haven't found anything (paid or free) that will let us watch these games (at work haha).

couldn't the htc incredible if it gets flash be able to run websites the stream it live and watch it from there?

 

[OtisPimpBoot]

Bump.

Our break room at work doesn't even have a TV. I'm not worried about battery life, I'll just charge my phone while I watch. Do any of the feeds from rojadirecta.com work on android?

unless we get 2.2 so we can install the Slingbox app we're SOL. I tried everything, and the espns sites vids don't work. There are a few good WC apps with promises of live score updates but this is TBD. All us footie fans unite and hope that 2.2 arrives on June 11th!
Slingbox FTW! FORZA ITALIA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

TVCatchup.com looks like a possible option depending on when they release their Android app.

ESPN MOBILE TV - Will stream World Cup games

ESPN Mobile: Live TV, Sports Events, and Programming On Your Phone - ESPN

Try channelsurfing.net with the Skyfire browser. It usually has all the major sporting events. My iPhone buddies were freaking out the other day when I was watching the Lakers game live on my Incredible.

 

[Le0_Br4zUc4]

when is sling box supporting android devices? It should be any time soon right?

 

[slumpey]

ustream app should be able to pick up alot of the games, was watching the usa/turkey game for a few mins on my incredible at the park on sat.

Thanks for the tip.

I believe ESPN will be offering an option for free mobile viewing - although the content will most likely be streamed via flash. Shouldn't be a problem for those with froyo, it remains to be seen whether the rest will be able to. I'll check back after a bit of research.

Apologies, I'm not sure how this impacts our international audience.

I just used USTREAM and had no problem watching LIVE NHL PLAYOFFs.
means that world cup wont be a problem.

 

[slumpey]

I second that, I am confident ustream will be the best app to watch the soccer matches. I am watching tennis (french open) right now and it is great. I think they will definitely have alot of games posted to watch. The only thing you will need to do is find the one with the best quality.
