This is so close to being 5 stars
First, I love the channel selections, the ease of recording shows, and watching recently aired shows.
I hate that my phone or tablet are the only options for the remote control. It’s very difficult to teach folks who aren’t tech savvy how to work it, especially older generations.
Many times recorded shows will not play with sound. I will sometimes have to reboot the chromecast and YouTube tv app multiple times before it will play a recorded show with the sound. I don’t know it that’s a chromecast issue or YouTube tv issue b/c I only use chromacast for YouTube tv.
Like a few other people have complained, the app will lose connection with the chromecast after a while even though the app acts like it is connected. When you try to pause, FF, or rewind nothing will happen until you disconnect and reconnect. Then when that happens it’s difficult to go back to where you wanted to rewind to.
