That was my reaction. Trying to fill space that normally would be filled with ads.

I have high speed internet regardless of my TV. Doesn't everybody?

Yes, *most* people do. But like I said, you still have to figure it into the cost of watching NFL games on YTTV, so your “savings” may not be as great as you think (DirecTV vs YTTV)

I've been paying for internet for years now. If so then I have to take in to account the new TV I bought last year, my electric bill every month. My savings are over $100 a month and are as great as i think they are

Was at a relative’s house yesterday, and it was odd that sometimes you got the Zen moments and other times you did indeed get ads. Wonder what the delineation was as to whether or not you got the ads. Note: there was way more ad time vs Zen moment time.

If I didn't have youtube TV I would still be paying for internet service. How else would I watch porn all day?

That said, I had to start watching the Bills late because of another commitment and the “watch key plays to catch up to live” feature is outstanding!

 

That feature came in handy when my internet service crapped out just before the first Bills TD. It came back 10 minutes later so I quickly caught up and saw the rest live.

Wut!? Both DirecTV and YTTV require that you have a TV and electrical power. The only difference between the 2 is that you MUST have a high speed internet connection to watch NFL games on a TV in your residence.

 

I guess you could watch them on a phone or tablet “over the air” just using cell phone towers (not connected to Wi-Fi), but not sure if the speed would be enough there, and be consistent.

I thought those were just because I was watching on an internet channel... yeah, lost revenue for sure.

[Xwnyer]

The one restriction I do NOT like  is the only 2 streams active on the account.   In past I liked having Bills on main TV, another TV muted with mix channel and a third game being watched on my iPad.

I am having no luck starting the game on delay or watching it in full after the game is over. I save it to my recordings (watch later) but get the “this event was live streamed and not available for replay” message. How are you accessing the replay? 
 

As for starting it late, there is no ability to rewind while the game is live.

 

My experience with the YouTube version of ST has been abysmal. 

In youtube go to the NFL page and find Events. All of the game replays are available.

Do they have a shortcuts for all the games where they take the commercials out like DIRECTV Sunday Ticket? I don’t have anything in my library. Thanks

go to your library and hover over Bills games. Should give you an option to watch a condensed version

Your local adult cinema of course...

Paris cinema  <---- no nudity, but link NSFW, unless you like meetings with HR

OK I found the condensed version for the NFL games. If you just purchased the NFL games for YouTube and you do not Pay for YouTube TV.  
 

Go to regular YouTube go to your channel NFL and it’s under EVENTS

I do now see the condensed replays are available the day after, but still not able to play the full game from my library saved recordings

 

This is the error I'm seeing 

 

Nor can I watch the game with a delayed start on Sundays.  This is one of the key features I buy Sunday Ticket for.  I have 3 kids with all kinds of activities. It's rare I can watch live, so I record it and catch up later in the day.  Has anyone been able to do this on YouTube version of ST?

It was a nightmare for me.

 

It took me 20 plus minutes to regain access on my mobile devices.

 

Really, YouTube?  You trusted my locations last week and then this week not so much?  And what you needed from me wasn’t even clickable?!
 

I went through setup yoga and finally got it.

 

This better not happen next week.  At least have someone working these first few weekends to help resolve issues.  Getting it resolved on Monday is a little pointless.
 

Otherwise, it has been good.

 

 

 

I had location issues as well, was infuriating.  Followed all the steps, worked on my phone but nada in the TV for a while.   Also started buffering at certain points, no other streaming service has this issue for me.  Overall B-

I miss MLB Network, which YTTV pulled right after I joined, and one of my local RSNs, MASN.  Other than that, it's been solid.

It sucks MA$N is only streaming on DTV stream - I enjoyed YouTube TV but I gotta watch the O’s too!

Hoping there’s a multiview option for tonight’s games 🤞

Sunday Ticket doesn't show the Monday night games or any other nationally televised games in your area, i.e. Thurs night, Thanksgiving, Saturday games etc...

I'm sorry, Ryan.

 

I went through it, and just reading your similar situation got me pissed off all over again.

 

Honestly, they need assistance on the weekend.  You paid so much for it, and you are making people pay a lot for it...and no one working on the weekend?!!

 

WTH?!

 

Think!

Youtube Tv offers multiview with other sports as well. They did it with the NCAA tourney

Google's ad revenue was just a hair under a quarter of a trillion last year....i think they will be ok...lol  I'm sorry for you that you can't appreciate/enjoy those little moments in life.

If I want a zen moment I’m sure as hell not watching a Bills Game ….

I didn’t say I don’t like it, but in a world where companies buy ad space on practice jerseys, you don’t think someone isn’t going to ask why these 90 seconds with millions of eyeballs aren’t making some money??

There wasn’t last week, I was hoping for manning plus reg feed- no dice. Works for college football though….

Two weeks in and it's been great for me.

 

Only thing missing is a "last" or "previous" button. They have to figure something out.

Man, I already love the way YTTV does the Ticket so much more than DirecTV with ONE major exception…I really liked Andrew Siciliano’s RZ and I can’t stand the dude who does the “standard” RZ channel.  I almost have to mute it — he’s that bad.

 

That said, I had to start watching the Bills late because of another commitment and the “watch key plays to catch up to live” feature is outstanding!

 

As noted last week, the tremendous variety of “multiview” options for each game is also a game-changer and crushes DirecTV’s old 8-game or 4-game window with no ability to individualize.

 

Google got this one right.

 

I love it too! Years ago when I was in the Marines and away, I had the ticket on DTV it was good then, but they never caught up to technology. My first year being away for some time (moved to Charleston) and I love the youtube tv NFL ticket experience. It is leaps and bounds better than what I remember it being.

Good point- didn’t dawn on me. Will check when I get home 

[billsfan28277]

IT shows 1:00 games as being at 5:00 but only on my TV.  The stream to my laptop has the correct time.  I have no idea why this is happening.

Me and my brother been complaining about this guy for years. Siciliano is on another level. 

He'll keep on a game that has zero action for 30 seconds while other games had huge plays. Never uses split screen or anything,  the dude is terrible 

[jethro_tull]

Definitely happier after I figured out how to multi-screen using the Roku remote down arrow.  

Switching between games was not as quick as last week.  

I still prefer DTV though because-

No switching between input modes between locally televised games and YT games.

Really miss the NFL mix channel that had 8 games on one screen and all of the scores listed on one screen.  

There is no place to go on YT to get a list of every score of games played and in process.  

[Steptide]

So far I'm completely satisfied with youtube Sunday ticket. I only hope that being able to select which games to watch in multi view comes this year and not next (supposedly they're working on it).

How many games do you hope to see? Do they overlap completely? 

 

I am just happy to see the Bills game! I didn’t bother to look for any of the cool bells or whistles. Maybe next time, but I just want to see our Bills! 

[EasternOHBillsFan]

Now I must ask....

 

Can we get the NFL to finally have someone else make an NFL video game BESIDES EA??? Could you imagine the innovation bump by not renewing their exclusivity? Madden needs it BADLY.

I wish they would have every choice available, may too difficult. But sometimes the 4 view just hast too much going on to not give me a headache. But still a fun option.
