YouTube TV on PC browser, Great!
by John, 2024-06-21
This app does what it advertises. It seems to work pretty well, and if you log into it, it works nicely on a touchscreen or with keyboard/mouse.
One issue I ran into was that I had to use the youtube.com/tv# link, but the extension had that link in the "How To" page so it was an easy issue to bypass.
I ended up uninstalling this app as I was hoping to leverage it for something else, but as it isn't pretending to be a Chromecast, it doesn't do what I was looking for.
The uninstall was seamless and it didn't load any pages begging for money or a re-install, which is always good.

Very useful, thankyou!
Edit - Here is a tip for anybody having trouble getting the stream to play in pc web browser (blank screen) :
Whilst the video is trying to play on the pc web browser (blank screen), open a new tab (click the + button at the top of the web browser to open a new tab). Switch back to the youtube on tv tab, the video should now play.
Its a shame that we can no longer watch purchased movies in HD via this extension, now limited to 480p, was good whilst it lasted.
