Disclaimer

IOF, the TV-production team, the local organisers and InPlayer Services are doing our best in making available all World Cup competitions, at a good quality, to all orienteering followers around the globe at a reasonable cost. The setup of globally distributed live streams from the production bus to the follower’s phone, tablet or computer is a complex project where the are several possible issues that can appear. We will do our best to provide good quality, fun and exciting competitions at your home!

Due to the big variation in type of device that our followers use, we strongly recommend checking the supported devices page . Mobile/tablet followers must use Chrome or Safari browsers.

Status, Feedback and questions

If you encounter any problem or have any feedback, please report it us. We will read all feedback.

Feedback problems with the LIVE Orienteering portal in general and Web-TV stream issues to: live@orienteering.org

Feedback problems with InPlayer accounts and purchases to: support@inplayer.com

If you want to find the status of the Web-TV, please check the top of each competition page.

Refunding and compensation

If problem occurs, we will do our best to solve it as soon as possible. A major problem is when the stream is not available for a majority of the live competition time that effects all users or a clear majority of the users. We will always make available the best possible Re-Live broadcast after the race if possible.

After the Round, we will evaluate the services from each competition and if a major problem have occurred on one competition we will communicate (through InPlayer registered user email) with all followers that had purchased a ticket on a way for compensation.

Minor problems, such as small lagging issues or temporary disturbed sound, might occur.
