Conspiracy theory time.  I have ATT fastest internet package, latest equipment etc... everything streams fine at 4k on all aps except YTTV now.  It constantly drops to 8 bit resolution now.  I am just running everything through the samsung smart TV.

It is even possible for ATT to be fucking with YTTV content specifically?  When I had a fubo trial, I could get the WS game in 4k on both yttv and fubo.  Fubo was rock solid.  Yttv would frequently drop down to lower resolution.

It is certainly possible, but unlikely. YTTV works fine for me (except for ABC/ESPN of course).

I bought rabbit ears this morning. I’m done playing their games. I’ll pirate if a game is on ESPN.


Regular YouTube has most CFB games 🏴‍☠️ with generally the first search result being the game.

Go cart racing back in the day was pretty good too. 

There's still a good amount of karting on these days, just not on ESPN. I have quite a few kart races on my yttv dvr. Really great stuff. The purest racing we have left.

My Fubo trial ended and I didn't renew.  UI sucks ass, fast forwarding is a nightmare without being able to see what you are skipping and that is a deal breaker.

Went to Hulu Live TV...UI is a lot better, we were already used to it with just Hulu.  Some annoying shit though, the apps are different enough to notice which platform you are watching on...the one on our Firestick doesn't have a Live tab making watching TV much more difficult.  Once you find your show it's the same and has the program guide type view you'd expect there's just no tab for it.

It also occasionally forces an ad, even though we are paying for no ads.  Finally, whether or not it records something is hit or miss so far which is less than ideal.  And, no multi view which I'd really gotten used to on Saturdays when Texas was not playing.

I am seriously considering going back to Spectrum.

Yeah when you fast forward ESPN broadcasts (dunno about other networks) on Hulu, you can FF to whatever spot you want, but when you hit play, they make you sit through the last commercial break, even when there are no actual ads there, which is often the case on, say, a volleyball match. YTTV doesn't do that. They don't even do that on the ESPN app.

I don't think YouTube is playing itself there.

Hulu is garbage. The interface sucks. It is fucking impossible to just find a channel compared to Youtube TV.

Yeah, I found that out pretty quickly while using my friend's login. It's piss.

 100% agree! "Upgraded" to ESPN Unlimited this morning and switching between games is a cluster fuck.

Because of this thread, did the sling day pass.  Live in Austin.  They show the ABC games via espn 3 since they don’t have KVUE.  Easy fix for the time being.  $6 and change for 24 hours

That's what I'm doing today. I really like YouTube TV, so I'm keeping the subscription active for now. But if this doesn't get resolved by next weekend, I'll probably pause the subscription or cancel and roll with Sling day passes.

Mouse got my money. Upgraded to unlimited from select. Best I can read, there’s no contract on my end so i can change back if they get it worked with yttv, which is also now on the clock to adjust pricing accordingly as i shop alternatives.
