You can rearrange channels and hide channels on YouTube tv.
Please tell me how..
I’ve burned up too many brain cells
You can’t do it on the TV screen, you have to do it on the app on your phone or iPad. It’s really simple you just drag the channels around to the order you want and click on the ones you don’t want to see on your menu. I change them regularly to get things I’m currently watching to the top.

For sports, FUBO.
I’m in my first month with them and I have the bottom tier package and like it fine. Sports is good but missing TNT and AMC. But I like it overall. And I keep a cheap antenna that gives me backup when crap happens.

Agree, they are all about sports, except during March Madness, no Turner stuff. I still get the Braves, and, sigh, the Preds.

I fully agree that YTTV is very user friendly. The price hikes add up though. It was $35 a month when I got it in 2019/2020 and now it’s almost triple the price in five years. That’s a heck of a markup for something that really only gets used half the year in my house. My wife never even looks at it, everything she wants to watch is on the usual streaming options.
Everything is relative. Your costs tripled and mine were cut by a third. Even with the recent price increase, I've still got a long way to go before I fuss about the cost
I was a former "they'll take my DTV remote from my cold dead hands" until they forced a 20 year customer out over the ESPN flap coming into CFB. Between that and 6P shaming me for paying 225/month I finally gave YTTV a try. What a dubmass I had been indeed. Beyond just the cost -
- About the only thing I watch is college sports and other than our games and a few others, it's always on the quad box. Easy to run around the PXP calls, pop it full screen, back to quad. Better yet, I thought it would be fixed on one set of games, turns out there are several combinations including mixed networks. What a great feature.
- While I have my "favorites" set, I rarely go to "live" because "home" always has what I'm looking for (I always feel like somebody's watching meeee ;) )
- We've rented several house recently and it looked like we needed an out door TV. NP ,threw a TV and Roku stick in the car, logged on remotely and we're watching CFB pool side.
- Finally, I drug out 7 dusty boxes (I'd been paying on for 10 to 20 years), 7 HDMI cables, adapter power cords and "miles" of coax cable (funny someone asked if kids would know what that is, they could have come to my house and find out) from under cabinets/behind TV's. Had a bunch of dumb TV's but a $50 Roku stick fixed that.
Funny enough I'm back in a service provider/network slap fest but I'm riding this one out.

Still don't know why someone on here didn't say how great YTTV is.**

Not sure which is worse, not being able to watch the NCAA Tournament or not being able to see Gracie Morris with the weather report. I think I will miss Gracie more. That being said there is no way this will not get worked out before the tourney. I saw the report this morning and i missed the TV part. I thought it was just CBS wasn't going to be on YOU TUBE and I was like who TF watches CBS on YOU TUBE?

YTTV question> You guys/gals that have YTTV, how do you watch ESPN Plus?
When I go look at ESPN Plus log in, it has YTTV as a potential provider.
But, everything I read says you can't get it thru YTTV.

Choose Provider > YouTube TV > Login with YouTube TV Google login/password

You might have to search for YouTube TV as a provider, but most interfaces has it up at the top now with Xfinity, etc.

I looked at it this afternoon, and YTTV was one of the options. Would they charge me thru my YouTube account?
(thanks for replying).

YouTubetv is more user friendly but we like Hulu better b/c we get ESPN+ and Disney free along with it, saving us $17 per month.

ESPN and plus are included with any TV package that has ESPN
That’s not true. ESPN+ is a whole separate streaming service that you have to pay for separately. YouTube TV service provides you access to secnetwork plus (which is part of the secnetwork) and all the other channels that are a part of the YouTube tv package.

ESPN+ is ESPN streaming service and has like all the 30 for 30s and other films they had and they have a few live rights with conferences and professional leagues.

basically espn+ is different than secnetwork plus which is what you need to watch MSU.

This is one of the reasons I’m still a dinosaur and have Spectrum as my main cable TV provider but the wifey still wants Netflix, and Amazon Prime which does include Paramount which I will admit I like those as well.
I know I’m paying too much but I don’t have to worry about s$|+ like this!
Spectrum isn't exempt from contract disputes with providers. If they don't want to pay CBS, the same thing can happen to them, doesn't matter if its cable or streaming from what I understand

So, if I have YTTV I can watch SECNW + without additional cost, but I have to log in to it.?
(I'm new to YTTV)

This sucks with March Madness coming up. Not sure what other options I have as there is no over the air CBS stations that I pick up.
The last price hike I switched to Direct TV stream. So far I’m very pleased with it. Same price as YT TV and more channels (though I know they’re not immune to disputes)
