I have just been watching all the AFCON games on Satelitte 61.5W Dish Network Channel 642.

Hi how do you get this channel and do they show old games and is this channel in english please let me knoe becuase i wanna get dish thanks

hi can you watch previous played games since the 20th of january till current and will they show every game thanks

no you can't you can only watch Live matches. I have been recording the games on my computer and or DVD player.

how did you record it on your computer and will the art america ashow evrything till the final game?

I have a program called Media Center that come with Windows XP so you can coonect your satelitte receiver to the computer and watch TV on it and it also gives an option to record the program then you burn it to DVD.

The games are on until the final.

I live in the US and our FTA and satellite coverage sucks compared to the rest of the world. HERE is everything you want to know about watching the cup if you live in the USA or Canada.

1. Dish Network - ART (Arabic) America has ALL games LIVE so far
2. Dish Network - TV5 (French) should have quarterfinals and onward LIVE
3. OnLine - JumpTV, ghana2008.tv, and various other FREE and PAY internet streaming video sites have the games, but quality may be lacking on some sites

Canadian stations mimick those of the US b/c the same satellites are available overhead ;o) Why can't we get Eurosport, BBC Sport, ART Sport, etc... why o why?!!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

NONE of the televised games (excepting maybe TV5) are great quality... WHY, because Ghana (and the crooks in Africa) have sold restricted rights to a French media company and only resale this side of the Atlantic has been via STREAMING VIDEO/INTERNET so many of the TV stations are airing streaming or redundant broadcast feeds (lower quality, cheaper) of the actual LIVE (high quality) feed.

ART America so far has shown LIVE games with picture quality of a late 1980s VCR, but that is good enough for me and just as good if not better than the online streaming picture quality which is compared to VCR quality.

In this day and age it is ridiculous that we in the US do not have the same access to LIVE TV feeds like other countries... FOX SOCCER or ABC/ESPN or SETANTA or SOMEONE needs to buy the TV rights next time around (NOT the internet streaming rights)... seems everything out of Africa is being sent through the internet pipeline even the TV feeds.

What I wouldn't give for a clear(er) picture -- at least as good as regular (not HD) ESPN on cable or satellite. Maybe when TV5 (French, Dish Network) takes over the picture quality will be up to par for the US. Weird that no one has picked up the rights for US broadcast of Africa Cup of Nations as the premier league is all but dead with all of the Africans gone... ;o) gripe, gripe, gripe... GOOD LUCK.

I am driving all over town tomorrow to find a place to watch TUN vs. SA as our satellite is down again! GO Eagles!!!!
