YouTube TV Getting Ability to Split Into 4 Screens

Other than YTTV choosing the 4 channels which are shown in the multiview (which I understand why at this moment)...it is pretty slick! In the 90s I thought picture-in-picture and side-by-side viewing was awesome! Just never really caught on! I remember playing video games on half the screen and watching a game on the other half. I believe the key was having a second tuner rigtht? But back then everyone had a second tuner when using a VCR. Anyway, this is promising!
I felt the same way at first but in the mid 90's 27" was the standard screen size and HD wasn't a thing. If you have a 65" TV, each of those 4 boxes is bigger than the 27" you had. Screenshot 2023-03-17 070007.jpg

Does anyone have a good alternative for watching the games on 4 TVs? I thought the screen limit on YouTube TV was 5 but evidently it’s 3. I have three setup now but want 4 for tomorrow and the wife watching upstairs just kicked me off.

Is there an app through CBS to watch on Roku or FireTV instead of using a YouTube TV stream?
I have hulu with unlimited screens, so I can't confirm this, but I thought Youtube TV offered a 9.99 add on that gives you 4K services along with unlimited screen streaming if its on your own wifi?
or you could do their 4 screen option.

most people before all of this did one TV OTA, then typically 3 other devices.
 
I have a mini PC hooked up to my 98inch TV with YouTube TV unlimited streams. Able to configure what ever I want. Will probably pay for youtube tv even if it goes up to 100$ , which it will
 
Anyone else's Multiview change from a single quad screen option to two different options for only two of the games? Can't find the 4 game view anymore.

What mini PC are you running and to do the mult streams are you just streaming in a web view with mult windows?
 
The feature has worked well for me so far. But I was a little annoyed that this morning they split the games up 2 and 2, there was no way to watch all 4. Back to the 4 screen this afternoon and evening though.

I'm assuming as this thing exits beta the user will be able to pick the 4 channels as opposed to YTTV setting it up? Because for college football or NFL Sunday Ticket there could be more than 4 games to choose from.

I would be surprised if we hit 4 screens on anything but special events. The Masters for example may do the regular coverage, the driving range, and the two feature groups for example. I'm guessing the rights holder gets to call the shots and I have doubts some of them want to make it easy to skip over their commercials and make their ad inventory less valuable.

So you don't think they will be allowed to do multiscreens during football season?

It will be there during football season; YTTV sent a tweet out yesterday teasing it.

I think this goes away after the tourny, then comes back for football season. I really want at least dual screen on the regular though.
