Cutting the Cable

My gigabit is a total of $75/mo so take the value with a grain of salt, but I’ve definitely multi-boxed 10 CFB games with it so it’s nice. Doesn’t disrupt anyone else on the network either.

Is the consensus YouTube is the best replacement for Vue for CFB fans?

 

I forgot that Disney+ was only 6.99 a month

for some reason I thought it was gonna be closer to Netflix’s outrageous price

I would have still paid it though obviously

 

There’s that Hulu/ESPN+/Disney+ deal for 12.99 i think

 

They should up it to like 14.99 for the Hulu no ads deal

 

Let us know if you find out how to sign up for this. It didn't look like there was a way yet when I looked the other day.

 

I’m actually mooching off my brother w this one. He already has a Hulu sub and he said he was going to do it. iIl ask him and report back.

 

Im getting this and canceling my Netflix and hulu

 

It’s right on the Disney plus site. Go there like you are signing up and select 6.99/month.

Says on there this does not include ESPN+/Hulu which will be available for 12.99 a month on November 12th.

 

Can you do a gift subscription for Disney+? Wanted to do that for my brother for a Christmas present.

 

not until launch day

 

i don’t think that was there when I checked before. There was no mention of the bundle.

 

thanks

 

Anybody know how to get the Fox Sports Regional channels? Have hulu live tv at the moment, but they won't give me any of the FS regional channels besides the one that I'm in (South). Looking to get FS southwest and some of the others.

 

Fox Sports Go app might have some of the games on other regional channels available

 

Yeah and you’ll need someone’s credentials who didn’t cut the cord.

 

I believe YTTV only provides the local one, not ALL of them like I used to have years ago with a $150 AT&T Uverse package.

 

Turned in my cable box today. Officially cut the cable. YTTV is great so far

 

Does anyone else have an issue of YTTV lowering in picture quality from time to time? Was watching two different basketball games on different channels and it would go down to 720 or something for 10-12 seconds every once in a while.

 

You trying to get thread banned?

 

it's been pretty bad for me tonight. mainly watching the Hornets game.

 

I just did this today. Cut cable and apparently a land line I still had and saved $160

Only complaint about YTTV is fast forwarding through commercials using the app is a pain. 15s chunks isn't enough

 

YouTube TV has been fucking up quite a bit recently. Probably going to cancel after the new year since I can get NFL over the antenna

 

Think you can do 30 second chunks if you hold it down

 

I have no idea what Directv and ATT internet have done but my bill for two dvrs, HBO, cable, and internet has been $80 the last 5 months! I am blest!!!

 

I read that but can't get it to work

 

I’ve done it by accident before

 

Turning in my rented cable modem in favor of my own. Recommendations for a decently cheap router that can handle 200mbps?

edit: need about 1300 sq ft of coverage, cape cod with lots of walls.

 

So I fucked up and let my psvue sub lapse bc my auto renew was tied to a credit card I lost last month and now they aren’t allowing new subscribers. I was using psvue bc it had nfl network and the redzone channel. Is currently my only other option to get these channels to get sling blue and orange and combine that with a hd antennae?

 

I think some of the TP-Link routers get really good reviews & are usually under $100 on Amazon

 

I get a redzone stream from reddit and just chromecast it to my TV each Sunday.

 

Update... The culprit is having Spectrum internet

https://www.cordcuttersnews.com/youtube-tv-confirms-unusual-buffering-affecting-spectrum-customers/

 

Im having this problem right now with att. I’m convinced it’s them bc Netflix streams just fine.

 

It's weird, I really only have buffering issues with the sports channels, but the quality will go down, and back up, occasionally on other channels without buffering.

 

For the YTTVers, Walmart is selling $100 Google play gift cards for $73. Extra 5% on some CCs too.

 

Anyone have YTTV on a Fire device? Is there a Last Channel or Flashback button on the remote?

 

Not that I know of but the down button shows recent channels I think while keeping you on the live screen

 

On fire down twice will show network icons and you can see what’s on those networks. Kind of nice to see on football saturdays

 

anyone have issues with audio being delayed on recorded programs on YTTV? was trying to watch some recorded shows last night and the audio was off by >1 sec

 

Had a buddy ask me about that yesterday. I have never had that issue in the time I have had the service.
