The switch between apps is so quick, and being an external device, you can use the input button on your TV and switch to other things without any delay or reloading of another app.

I have one of the first generation Apple TV still, I have it hooked up to one of my other HDMI input on my television, and when I’m legally streaming games I cast from my PC downstairs, so I’m getting perfect picture no lag, and then if I want to jump to another game I just hit the input button on my TV real quick

I have a smart TV. Its UI has always been glitchy, and even when working properly, its just slow. 

Switching from Netflix back to youtube TV or vice versa takes longer than it should in the year 2022. 

If I dont know what I want to watch and Im searching Netflix, and Amazon, and eventually settle on youtube TV it gets kind of annoying switching apps that many times.

 

Using the streaming box is going to make it very snappy to switch between apps.

 

The other issue it will improve is load times on actual streams once in the app. This isnt bad for me. Our internet was plenty fast enough for multiple HD streams at once. But we recently switched from 100gbps to 1gigabit internet. After the switch, I was excited to see the new speeds, and upon testing the connection on my TV, I found I was still only receiving like 44gbps. The hardware in the TV isnt capable of receiving faster speeds. My load/buffer times to begin a show arent bad at all, but with the apple TV compatible with higher speeds, I am expecting the initial buffer to potentially disappear. 

 

Overall, a better, snappier experience using the TV not having to rely on the TVs slow hardware.

Thank you both for the explanation. I’ll look into it.

Have you ever tried to do picture in picture? I wonder if its possible to do youtube TV on my TV, and also stream it again through the apple device with PIP from whichever HDMI its plugged in to.

Im wondering if I can do both games on Sundays.

Couldn't he just plunk him instead?

Plus if you are an apple nerd like I am, I can go start iTunes on my PC, then click the button and ask which Apple TVs I want to connect to, it turns them on which also turns on my wireless surround sound, so the same thing that’s  playing through my basement stereo PC, is playing through my Living Room stereo and my bedroom/outside deck television

Castellanos is frustrating. Hard to be too tough on him because he’s made some big plays - especially in right.

3 pitch K with no actual strikes thrown. Exactly what I was expecting from that AB lol

It’d be awesome if castellanos just one at bat never even swung. I feel like it might wind up being a better at bat then some of these where he swings at everything. 

Have a gut feeling we’re going extra innings so we’re all that much more exhausted for tomorrow night. Would be fitting.

You won’t even need to do that if you have YouTube TV and Apple TV. When you scroll down it shows you the last channels you watched, but it also is playing them in a small window at the bottom, so you scroll down see if that games came back from commercial, if not hit the back arrow to make the bottom bar go away

Obviously it doesn’t translate because this picture is not a video, but you can see the Celtics game on the bottom left in my last few channels, and it starts playing live as soon as you bring up that bar

I see. But theres a lot of other junk still on that screen. Im wondering if it can be JUST the video so I can watch 2 things at once on the same screen

Sideways smiles for everyone!

What's Nola's leash tonight?  Can't imagine them letting him get past 80?

I called 3 straight swinging strikes. Him and Stott have been black holes in the lineup. Obviously your 5 hitter swinging like a bee is attacking him is way worse that your 7.
