TugoTV in Channels?

You've concocted quite a narrative for nothing more than an encrypted password.

The docker does what I need here. When it breaks, I will probably seek out other places to grab the stuff I want. I'm interested in seeing more options made available. I like what channels does and wish I live somewhere where I could put up an outdoor antenna.
We'll enjoy them while they work. When it is gone, we will move on.

Did they remove NBC from the lineup? Doesn't show on their website anymore.

Bummer if so, still looking for a relatively cheap NBC replacement after the DRM.

“an encrypted password”… is that what you think a client secret is?

That is what it is in this instance. :joy:

Is Tugo TV legit?

For $30/month I was gonna give it a try, but a 2-day off and on search leaves me wondering, even cynical. Then NBC disappears right after their publicized switch to DRM?

All I really need is sports, perhaps waiting for ESPN to go streaming only is a better idea, for me anyhow. I'm no saint, but something is off here.

How do you figure that?

Go figure and CBS is listed under All, but not Network

NBC hasn't disappeared. Track and Field is playing right now as you can see below.

I've been using it for a couple of days now. Hard to believe all these channels are included for this price. It replaces my SlingTV and Philo subscriptions. Not having to deal with TVE restrictions where some channels are not available is nice too. I'm just not sure how long this will last. Heck, it even includes a movie channel, HBO Family.

Because their website is screwed up, if you click on all channels NBC is not there but if you click on networks it is.

Is there still a 10 to 15 minute delay behind live? That's pretty ridiculous if so, but yeah it's a great value for 30 bucks a month or even less if you do the yearly deal (I wouldn't).

I've combined it with Philo and FRIENDLY. Sports and network tv are my favorites.

For most channels, I've seen a 2-3 minute delay.

I have to say quality is ok for what it is.
i'm recording stuff weekly off CBS and the comm skip is working great.
You know there are people on YTTV that only wish they had what we have out of the box.
looking forward to sunday baseball this afternoon on ESPN through Tugo.

Having fun!!!!!

Exactly my point.

I said weeks ago this doesn't pass the smell test. They probably haven't been noticed yet but eventually they will be and then there will be lawsuits.

Yeah, reminds me of the silicon dust offering from a few years ago. The end result of that mess was the provider didn't have a blanket license from Directv like they claimed and it left SD with egg on their face

My experience with TUGO is mixed. The Roku and Shield apps work ok, the Apple app crashes and needs a complete reboot daily. The delay on some channels (FS-1) is more than 30 mins. The last two AFT (American Flat Track) broadcast (April 30th and May 13th) missed their time slots complete. Still hard to beat @ $30/mo.

Are they using a set of local channels for the network feeds?

Yep, east coast. NYC I believe.
