Cutting the cable, lets talk options and media setups (1 Viewer)

I would try hard wiring whatever device you are using to eliminate the wifi as the culprit.

That would require more work than I'm ready to do right now but might need to -

FWIW the youtube tv reddit has a bunch of threads about the problem I am experiencing. Hopefully they're working on it. I really like the layout/interface.

I’m about to use a free trial on Disney plus to try and get the championship game this week. I may end up subscribing to it anyway but I don’t see a good reason until next football season I wonder if they somehow block there biggest content (like NCG) from trials?

I really wish YouTube TV would offer multi-screen capability like PS Vue did. Switching between channels in its current format is atrocious.

You can hit down on the cursor of your remote twice and then go to previous channels from there.

WHAT?!! REALLY?!!

WHAT?!! REALLY?!!

lol yep. Not sure why they don’t give a brief demo of that because i had to look it up.

 

[Swampy Saint]

It works

 

[GrandAdmiral]

Still want multi-screen...

(Being petty)

 

[FLEA]

It works

It does not work on a Roku remote while on Playstation Vue...just probably doing it wrong though. I will keep messing with it.

ok: the bad news. The free trial is only for Disney not for the Disney/ESPN/Hulu version.

fine I get over that but worse problem.

You go to sign up and you enter your email and submit and it kicks you to the password page (not the one where you create one but where you enter it if you already have an account) I tried twice and figured it was them not playing nice with Chrome. So switch to Edge and same shirt.

How can a Billion Dollar Company not run a website efficiently. I guess I'm going to have to talk to 4 levels of automation and then speak to a rep. Who then may bounce me through a couple more automations to other reps. I hate automation. Not too much more fond of people either.

LSU better win after all this, thats all I'm saying.

edit: ok nevermind. I apparently must have had a Disney account sometime last century.

shudder has been the only channel i've watched for well over 2 months.

the year subscription was less than $60.

horror is my genre, perfect for me.

And they have some original programming. I did watch all of CreepShow and started watching the Critters TV show (which was a little bad). The Creepshow episode with the guy in the suitcase was pretty good.

Snowboarding, Christian, and music videos on YouTube. YouTube is getting crazy with the commercials, but that's the price we pay for not subscribing.

Cable and dish television subscriptions are dinosaur media. When the 5G network is fully functional, that should pretty much put an end to dinosaur technology.

The media progression. Telegraph, radio, cable, satellite, internet, and now wireless internet. Media alternates between air and cable broadcasting.

1844 Morris Code - telegraph cable
1920 Radio - air waves
1948 Cable - coaxial cable
1976 Satellite - air waves
1993 Internet - phone cable
1997? Wireless Internet - air waves

PS vue is gone. Now youtube tv has gone from $50/month last March to $65/month now for a similar package.

Gonna need options to cut streaming here pretty soon.
