The 2018 Winter Olympics in PyeongChang, South Korea, are shaping up wonderfully.Perfect scores aside, the competition has begun and it’s white hot, from Shaun White and Mikaela Schiffrin to Lindsey Vonn and quad king Nathan Chen — but there’s still plenty to see.

Thanks to the NBCUniversal family of networks in the U.S., televised Olympics coverage from PyeongChang began February 8 at 8:00 PM ET with figure skating, and continued February 9 with the opening ceremony. You can stream it, record it, and even watch in 4K HDR with Dolby Atmos if you’ve got the right gear. Here’s our comprehensive guide to watching the Olympics on any platform.

A note: DVR is your friend! Some coverage will be aired on delay, but in many cases you may need to record events of choice since PyeongChang is 17 hours ahead of the West Coast (PST). Below, we’ll cover DVR options for all the various viewing methods. For reference, here’s thefull event schedule, courtesy of NBC.

Cable or satellite

Luckily, every major cable and satellite TV provider has the Olympicson tapthis February. Here’s how to watch in the United States (check here for international broadcasters).Note: To watch in 4K or HDR, you need a compatible TV. Events available in 4K include the Opening Ceremony, ski jumping, figure skating, and snowboarding.

If you want to watch in 4K and/or 4K HDR, you’ll need aGenie DVR box. Head to channel 106, DirecTV’s channel for 4K Olympics coverage, some of it in immersive Dolby Atmos surround sound. If you’re just looking to watch in regular old HD, head to NBC (local), CNBC (355), NBC Sports Network (220), USA (242), and/or the Olympic Channel (1667). You can watch on mobile devices with theDirecTV Appas well. Note that most coverage in 4K HDR with Dolby Atmos will only be available on-demand — which is probably the best way to watch in the US since South Korea is 17 hours ahead of U.S. Pacific time — even though Dolby is producing the immersive surround audio live.

Comcast Xfinity

If you’ve got an XfinityX1 Cloud DVRbox, you’ll get access to a wealth (supposedly more than 2,400 hours!) ofOlympic coverage, including select programming in 4K HDR with Dolby Atmos surround sound support. To do so, just say “Olympics” into your voice remote, or head to On Demand, then Sports, then Olympics Home. X1 includes up to 50 different curated video playlists — Comcast wants to call these “Olympic Channels,” but that’s a bit misleading — with on-demand highlights and replays.

If you want to access Olympic Channels (or if you want to watch anything in 4K or HDR), you’ll need an XG1v3 DVR box. RNG150 boxes don’t have built-in DVR, so they won’t work.See hereif you’re confused. If you don’t have an X1 box, you canwatchlive Olympics coverage — assuming your cable package includes NBC, USA Network, CNBC, NBC Sports Network and/or the Olympic Channel (channel listings varyby location). As with DirecTV, most coverage in 4K HDR with Dolby Atmos will only be available on-demand.

Dish Network

Dish Network just announced it, too, will offer NBCUniversal’s 4K HDR coverage of the Olympics. In addition, Dish is offering a dedicated sports hub on channel 147 for easy navigation of all of NBC’s coverage across the five networks we mentioned earlier. Dish also offers a “Sports Bar Mode,” which will allow Hopper 3 owners to watch up to four events simultaneously. you may watch it all via theDish Anywhere apptoo. Dish hasn’t mentioned any support for Dolby Atmos sound.

If you don’t use one of the providers listed above, check with your cable or satellite provider for channel listings and other Olympic programming.

Web browser

As long as you’ve got a capable computer and a pay-TV subscription (it shouldn’t matter which provider you use), you can stream all the events live and on-demand via NBC’s official website (schedule here). If your internet is fast enough, this just might be the best way to do it, and if you’ve got a Chromecast, you can use screen mirroring to watch on a big-screen TV.

If you’re located outside the U.S., you might need to utilize a VPN to get around those pesky restrictions. We’ve got ahandy explainerand a list ofpopular VPNsif you want to go that route. A VPN can also help you “spoof” your location to gain access to broadcasts from Britain or Canada (where the Olympics are broadcast on public TV stations) using a “tunnel” or a “proxy.” For non-techies, this can be a little daunting, but if you don’t mind announcers with funny accents, it could save you some money.

A note: U.S. service members and veterans can log in towatch for freewith an Exchange account.

Streaming via NBC Sports

TheNBC Sports app— available for a smorgasbord of devices, from TVs to streaming sticks to smartphones and tablets — offers the same live and on-demand coverage as the NBC Olympics website, plus a healthy collection of highlight videos and other miscellaneous content. As you might expect, it requires a pay-TV subscription.

Streaming services

Sling TVhas long been a popular alternative for those who prefer not to opt for cable or satellite subscriptions. Sling’s Olympic coverage promises to be fairly thorough, though at 600 hours total, you’ll get less than a third of the content Xfinity provides.

A Sling Blue subscription willrun you$25/month. Sling Orange is cheaper, but it doesn’t offer any of the networks you need for the Olympics. Sling also has cloud-based DVR so you can record what you want to watch and watch it at a reasonable hour.

PlayStation Vue

Vue hasn’t been around as long as Sling — it’s less than three years old — but it’s quickly become a common choice for PlayStation owners and others. Vue utilizes Cloud DVR and allows users five simultaneous streams, so if you’ve got a family of Olympic fans, it can be a solid selection.

Users in select markets can watch NBC live coverage of the Olympics (see herefor a list), and no matter which Vue package you’re signed up for, you’ll have full access to CNBC, NBC Sports Network, and USA Network. Elite and Ultra packages also get the Olympic Channel.

Vue pricing depends on location (see Pricing & Channel Packages in ourVue explainer); an Access or Access Slim subscription costs $40 or $30 per month, and Elite (which’ll get you the Olympic Channel) costs $55/$45.

Hulu Live TV

Hulu’s Live TVservice,launchedin mid-2017, allows users to customize their Olympic viewing experience by setting event preferences, which will dictate the way different events are organized within your Hulu interface. Every relevant channel (including the Olympic Channel!) is included with the one-size-fits-all $40 monthly fee.

Fubo TVis a sports-centric newcomer to the streaming wars. Fubo’s list of compatible devices isn’t as vast as the competition, but you can plop down $20 for your first month to get every channel the Olympics are broadcasting on. Make sure to cancel before the month is up if you don’t want your bill to double, though.

Youtube TV

As with Hulu and Fubo,Youtube TV— which justdebuted in December— offers just one set of channels, which includes all the channels you need for $35/month. It’s got cloud-based DVR, too, so you can record anything you want to watch later. Right now, Youtube TV is available inmore than 80U.S. markets.

DirecTV Now

Don’t like regular old DirecTV? Try DirecTV Now! Like Vue, the streaming service offers several different package levels. At the $35 level (“Live A Little”) you’ll get NBC, CNBC, NBC Sports Network, and USA. To get the Olympic Channel, you’ll need to upgrade to the $60 tier (“Go Big”).

Over-the-air

If you own an HD antenna, you can watch your NBC affiliate’s event coverage for free (assuming you get NBCin your area). Unfortunately, that’s just a small slice of the Olympics; peruse the top row ofthis chartto see what’s available.

If this is your method of choice, you’ll want an OTA (over-the-air) DVR as well; we recommend theTabloor TiVo’sRoamio OTA DVR.
