Tweeted them about it earlier, still waiting for CTV to provide it to them.

I see, thanks.

There are a few things up now, but its not as extensive as I'd hoped. There is currently some Gymnastics, Women's Soccer, some Swimming and the opening Ceremonies. The descriptions are completely generic, and actually say they are from Rogers On Demand.

In French, there is only Aviron, which I think is rowing, and the Opening Ceremonies.

They may still be adding items, I don't know. I hope the opening ceremonies do show up in HD soon.

They're in HD now. They just added them later today.

Yes, there is a lot more on the On Demand section now, and I think Eastlink's newsletter from late last week did mention that coverage would be available 18 hours after the conclusion of an event, hence the reason for spotty coverage at first.

As smallmj already noted, it is interesting to see that it appears to be from Rogers on demand.
