If you have a ROKU tv, get used to clearing the cache. Hit the home button. then:
Hit Home button five times, up button once. reverse twice. fast forward twice.
This will cause it to seize up and hard reboot. You want this. Better than even unpluging the set and replugging in; also, it's quicker.
<Snip> Thank me later.
I was all set to go with YouTubeTV ... then I read your post.ESPN has a new streaming service starting the 21st. I think its about $29 and includes all live espn channels and all ABC college football games. So you won't get as much non sec games as you would with youtube tv, but you'll get all the sec games for quite a bit less.
Did I write this? This is literally me.Our family has a collection of Roku and FireTV devices scattered around, but my main streaming device and by far the best one I've ever used is the Nvidia Shield Pro. Can't recommend it highly enough. I used to be deep into my own custom build HTPC, with IP cable tuner (HDHomerun), madvr for HDR rendering etc. Got fatigued from constantly chasing Windows updates and broken services as a result, and bit the bullet to switch to the Shield. Best decision I ever made. It just works. I still have a media server full of show episodes, ripped movies (many 4K), etc. and use Emby through the Shield for all of it. It's awesome.

Your streaming will not buffer or if it does, it will not be because you needed to clear your cache. Do this WAY before you are about to watch something important. At least 10-15 minutes before, if not more.
Thank me later.
I have a Shield and when it gives up the ghost, I'm promptly buying another one. I still keep my Roku connected because my wife prefers its simpler interface and I prefer not being dragged into the room just to help her navigate the apps. It's a win/win for us both.Our family has a collection of Roku and FireTV devices scattered around, but my main streaming device and by far the best one I've ever used is the Nvidia Shield Pro.

Roku TVs have a tendency to buffer a lot after apps have been running on them for a while. Disney+ is practically unusable sometimes because of this. Clearing the cache fixes it.OK, school me on this.
Why is this important/what's the purpose?
You recommending this before watching ball games OR just doing this occasionally?
Same here. I'm no Auburn fan, but I want to watch the game Friday. So they have 'til about 10 minutes before kick off to get this fixed, or I am on to something else (or at least starting a free trial for something).It looks like YTTV is about to lose the Fox networks as well. They lost MLB Network a few years ago, and that ticked me off. Now it appears they're about to no longer carry Fox. So there goes another entire set of sports content they don't offer. I may be ending my relationship with them soon.
I caught that this morning. I've already sent my complaint.It looks like YTTV is about to lose the Fox networks as well. They lost MLB Network a few years ago, and that ticked me off.

Wow...I've had this happen a few times and wondered why. Glad to know this!!!Roku TVs have a tendency to buffer a lot after apps have been running on them for a while. Disney+ is practically unusable sometimes because of this. Clearing the cache fixes it.
They've agreed to a short-term that will keep fox games through at least labor day weekend, maybe the whole season it isn't really clear.
