Provider - YouTube TV

Anyone having issues with cbs?

Yeah, I just recently starting getting that error with CBS.

Hated to have to resort to it, but canceled YTTV, no matter how I set up an account, it would not let me log in. I use a docker with Unraid and it keeps saying that the machine isn't recognized and wants to send a text. Switching to Hulu Live...ugghh.

I tired it before, and unfortunately app specific passwords didn't work for me. It gives me an error: "Try again with your Google Account password."

Yes, just started getting the CBS error.

Me too. CBS is giving me a 400 Bad Request error in the log. Went over to se if it worked on https://www.cbs.com/live-tv/stream/tveverywhere/ .

When I tried to login at cbs with YTTV as the provider I get:

Perhaps this is a temporary thing???

I'm getting the same error and get the same message when I log into CBS with YTTV as provider

I just tried "app password" but it didn't work.

I was able to re-add youtube just now using 2fA got an alert on my phone a couple of times and all I answered was it is me.... see what happens.

What is funny is I got Paramount east but it says Paramount Pacific is not availble in Oregon.

no CBS

Welp I had to move away from my main account and use my other one that can't do 2fa due to lack of e-mail and phone number. Every time I found another channel that wasn't authenticated I had to hit yes on my phone before it would load the channel. So far my second account works without annoying the H E double hockey sticks out of me.

Terrific! You might want to refer to my earlier post (Dec 9) regarding additional measures you can take to avoid blockage by Google. So far so good.

Yup already made that change too.

Good luck! To you and me both.

YouTube TV and Disney contract dispute

Edit: if YouTube TV does lose the Disney channels, the subscription price for YouTubeTV will be temporarily reduced by $15.

Ars Techica article on contract dispute

Edit2, the day after the deadline: The blackout has occurred. Upon launch, the YouTube TV app displayed a window explaining the loss of Disney channels and the $15 price reduction. When attempting to view these channels via TV Everywhere, Channels displays a "Playback Failed" error window.

I created a non recoverable acct and added it to my family group and shared youtubetv subscription it appears to be scanning with the new account

Has anybody been able to get local CBS to work yet? I'm still getting the "Your TV provider is not yet supported in your location." message over at the CBS live TV Stream site (CBS Live TV Stream)

I have not experienced the Local CBS problem. I was able to watch Survivor just now. I have no idea why my mileage varies. I have been set up for a few months.

Well, it’s happened - YTTV has lost the Disney related channels including ESPN and a lot of others - based on my 8 months or so using channels, my thoughts are that I want to switch to the provider that has the most TVE channels because I find myself normally watching via channels DVR and not the YTTV app - we definitely want the sports channels and as many of the major cable channels as well like AMC, BBCA, FX, FXX, TNT, TBS, PAR, USA - what are other Channels/YTTV users going to do?

Update: I tried most of the Disney channels via TVE and sure enough they don’t come in, but for some reason the ESPN channels still work - I wonder if that is intentional?
