I have plans during the race and won’t be able to start watching until half way through. My question is, can I start from the beginning and watch while it is still live or do I have to wait for the race to finish and be posted as a replay like in mx. I don’t want to turn on the tv half way through the main.

If you are using a fire stick I don't recommend waiting until the last minute to set this up. It wasn't terrible but it took about 2 hours for me as the first video I watched on youtube to do it the link to download the app didn't work and then the second one the link they used was before an update so that didn't work. They had a second video with the correct link after Peacock did an update. Looks like it's working now, waiting until Saturday to set up the free 7 day trial to get Premium, maybe I'll do that Friday just in case.

I know this has been answered a bunch but for the folks who are still wondering where to find supercross after downloading Peacock:

1) Scroll over to sports (Not live and upcoming).

2) Scroll down until you see qualifying and main event.

3) That's it.

Is there anything on Peacock that can't be watched on ABC?

On Roku, you couldn't RWD the live stream on NBCSportsGold either.....but on a PC/Laptop, you could. I'm hoping it will be the same way for Peacock.

Interestingly, the search feature on Peacock still does not turn up anything related to Supercross. But going thru the live and upcoming sports, it does show up and I've added it to my watchlist.

Had my UFC and SX confused. I'll ask: Is there anything on Peacock that won't be shown on NBCSN?

For any of you still having issues with loading the Peacock App on any sort of Amazon Fire devices, give this Troypoint video a watch. Their links are always current as the previous Peacock app download I tried yesterday was requiring an update that I couldn't figure out how to do. Then I remembered to search for Troypoint, who also keeps our Kodi app up to date as well. Also, once you have the app downloaded, Supercross isn't found with a search for "supercross", it's found under the "Sports" tab. Good luck!

This has been a screwed up rollout. All the historical races are gone from NBC Gold; none have been moved to Peacock. You can't get to any MX or SX previous recordings. WTF? Amateur hour.

When I get on my Concept 2 rower I pick an SX race (short workout) or an MX race (long workout) and I go gate drop to flag. Usually I win. Wink

That’s weird because I’m still able to watch all the old MX/SX race replays with my Gold pass on nbc sports app through both iOS and firetv.

It seems I can watch them on my laptop, but not via Gold on my iPhone. No idea why there's a difference. Very weird.

Edit - I just tried my phone again and they are working there too.

yeah it sucks because the app isnt available for firestick either, which is what i use in both my bedroom as well as living room. At least in the riving room i can stream from my phone to the tv, which will be fine for the races but if i want to use the app for anything else in the bedroom im SOL. Willing to deal with it though since the main point of signing up for me was for the races!

Yes, you need to use the downloader app, allow permissions for outside apps to sideload Peacock. Pretty easy!

If anyone has not purchased the subscription and has an AMEX card, check your offers. Found this on mine today.

I just set mine up using a web browser on my Surface and casting to my Vizio. Only options for me as I don't own a Firestick or Roku. And we don't have Xfinity or Cox here. Directv and DSL is it. Plays alright... Just a little jittery and I'm sure that's due to my download speed. But still watchable... I'll do the Peacock connection up to where I can watch it on Directv.

So does moving from the $4.99 package to the $9.99 pack get me anything more?

Can I watch all the races live with the $4.99 package?

The $4.99 one is all you need to watch SX/MX. You can watch the races live and commercial free as well on that package.

The $9.99 one gets you commercial free programming on Peacock. Great if you watch a lot of TV or have kids.

Not sure if this has been covered but it seems like I can't cast from my iPhone to Apple TV? Had to go HDMI from PC... which is fine.

Anyway... as mentioned above... definitely give it a test run prior to races.

Why don’t you just download the Peacock app on your AppleTV?

That guy is really good and explains it in a understanding manner for old guys like me (63).

Who pays that guy anyway--he deserves a raise! Cheerful
