Disney vs. Direct - How long???

I signed up for YouTube to be able to watch the USF game.

My issue with YouTube TV is the inconvenience of not having the 30 advance or the 5 second rewind buttons.

Also, it takes forever to boot up and is easy to knock off line. I have to scroll through 8-10 other options (Prime, Netflicks, etc.) to get to YouTube. Then is have to go the menu on the left and scroll down to YouTube TV then OK that and I'm finally where I can choose what to watch. It's a PITA.

It sounds like you are griping about Roku, not YoutubeTV.

I watch YoutubeTV on a Roku...

Also, there's almost no baseball on YouTube. I want Bally Sports to be able to watch the Cardinals and Braves.

Only Fubo has Bally, but the playoffs are about to start so that won't matter

I may need to try Fubo then.

I think the TV is a Samsung. Nothing special about it. I used to have a Roku but it died.

I don't like the Samsung remote as well as the DirectTV remote. The buttons are too small. I can probably fix that with a universal remote with bigger buttons.

About all I watch is sports and Jeopardy. I don't need 763 channels, just the ballgames of the aforementioned teams I watch, NBA, and NFL.

That says more about the device you're using than it does about YTTV itself. You should be able to just install the app itself and launch it directly. Also, it can absolutely skip 15 seconds ahead just by using the directional arrows.

Yeah, the app works great on AppleTV.

I have a TCL and an Onn that are both Roku devices. Roku isn't a brand, it's more like an OS for TVs...

There are tons of Roku devices that plug into the TV though. It's not always built in. In fact, it's better if it's not built in because you can replace the device for cheap as it ages.
