RTP streaming
RTP, the portuguese public television, puts online every day a stream with their two daily news services ("Jornal da Tarde" and "Telejornal"). Sometimes Every few days, I watch one episode just to keep in sync with the news. It happens that yesterday, when i was trying to watch the dinner time news service Telejornal, I got instead the live transmission of the soccer game Sporting - Leiria. Yes, one hour of pure soccer 
This happened because the stream is recorded not from RTP1 (the channel that broadcasts the new in Portugal) but from RTP Internacional (the channel that broadcasts worldwide). Usually, RTPi broadcasts the news at the same time that RTP does. The only exceptions are when there is a soccer game broadcasted by the public television in Portugal. Then, RTPi broadcasts that game worldwide. It looks like the streaming system is automated (that’s good, in most cases) and started recording RTPi at 8PM and finished at 9PM, recording one hour of soccer instead of one hour of news.
I guess I’ll have to watch today’s news service to sync up.
The streamings are available at RTP multimedia resources.
