 Poster: A snowHead
|
One of my many pleasures whilst away boarding is watching the montage of resort webcams on TV in the morning. My current favourite being the German Bavarian channel BR Süd, due to its understated, yet cheery traditional music. Even if some of the pictures of some of the local and Austrian resorts make for rather sad viewing at the moment.
I assume I'm not the only one who enjoys this?!
Is there an easy way to pick any of these channels up in the UK? I'm particularly interested in the montage programs, rather than just a single resort / webcam. I'm guessing that a YouTube stream of one of the channels is probably my best bet.

@jebroni3_16, Yes the BR morning montage of ski resort webcams is very good. If you're fortunate enough to have a satellite dish pointing towards the Astra 1 satellite at 19.2 deg E then you can receive all the German TV channels (including free German Eurosport) plus many other foreign language (e.g French and Italian) TV channels. Unfortunately a UK Sky TV dish points to a different satellite (Astra 2) at 28.2 deg E.
There is a BR livestream internet site, although I don't know if it carries the morning webcam montage: https://www.br.de/mediathek/live

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Clicked on this thread hoping for some sort of crossover between Paranormal Activity and Bob the Builder. Was disappointed.

Same! Many thanks again @kiteman69
Although I might need to have a word with them about the music. Or just mute it and put the playlist @inboard recommended on instead!

We sit in bed every Saturday morning and watch it with a coffee and pick out places to try - todays rotation point was Samnaum/Ischgl
Also listen to Radio William Tell or Swiss Classic on a Saturday morning for a bit of folksy swiss jodler tunes
