Sky + Olympic coverage

I might be wrong, but I'm sure you can't sky+ bbci stuff as you have to press the red button to activate it - it's not on a sky channel as such. I hope someone say's otherwise as I can't believe the coverage on BBC 1 & 2 will be that brill with everything else going on.
 
I read on here that you couldn't! Because bbc i isn't a proper channel unless you type in 304 or whatever it is. You can record it the old fashioned way by setting your video to AV but you have to leave the actual tv screen on to do it
 
You can't Sky + anything on BBCi - sorry. The BBC protocols nomally are to use terrestrial coverage of the sports we are likely to medal in. If thats the case Sky + will be great.
Expect a lot of 3 day event (esp x country) decent amount of showjumping (unless we bomb out before final rounds) and limited dressage unless we are in top 5! Thats how its panned out in previous Olympics anyway....
 
You can watch it online via the BBC site here just scroll through through the list of videos to the right and then click on equestrian (it won't appear in the list until 12:15)
 
If you have freeview and a hard drive recorder you can do it, I phoned sky and they said you could but couldn't tell me how

Even if you are watching the BBCi it won't record so not sure how they think you can do it
