YouTube TV – Advantages And Disadvantages (Part I)

More to the programming, the YouTube TV is also not supported on several common devices including Apple TV, Amazon’s Fire TV and Roku too. It is also learned the older version of Google’s Chromecast streaming devices may not support the newest TV.

It is to note, subscribing to the YouTube is currently coming with a free Chromecast player, but it is subject to the limited supplies.

More to all these, the YouTube TV is also not made available on most of the smart TVs. It is only supported on those TV sets which have built-in Chromecast like the Android TV from Sony and the SmartCast models from Vizio.

If things do not work on your smart TV, it is suggested to cast YouTube TV via a newer version of Chromecast player.
