Streaming Quality

“2/2.839.jpg” The quality of your PS Vue stream depends on your Internet speeds. Our score: 9/10 While you may be hoping for 4K quality over here you’re not going to get that because none of the TV channels actually broadcast content at this quality. You can however expect 720p HD from many of them. PlayStation Vue recommends users to have at least 10 Mbps download speeds to properly stream the content and an additional 5 Mbps for each additional simultaneous stream.

Supported Devices “2/2.840.png” PS Vue works on a wide range of devices so you won’t need a PlayStation gaming console to view anything. Our score: 8/10 What many people fear given the name of the platform is that they’ll need a PlayStation console to view the content. While that’s quite understandable the truth is different. PlayStation Vue works on Amazon Fire TVs and Android TVs and you can even use voice support to control these Apple TV Chromecast iOS and Android smartphones and tablets as well as Roku. There is no support for Xbox however.

“2/2.841.jpg” Easy to use platforms are our favorites so this one gets loads of points. Our score: 9/10. The fact that PlayStation Vue allows users to favorite channels makes watching your favorite content that much easier. You can also easily check the schedule for the channels in your bundle and check what you can watch and perhaps what shows to save to DVR for later. You can also enjoy on-demand content from these channels so you can get more out of the whole experience. Unlimited cloud DVR – the fact that you can pretty much record anything you want to the cloud is absolutely great. Multiple simultaneous streams – rather than fight with your family about who gets to watch what show you can each enjoy whatever you want on up to 5 devices. TV apps – the PS Vue credentials give you access to loads more content via the dedicated apps for dozens of channels

The bad No parental controls – if you have tech-savvy kids and which kids aren’t you have no way to make sure they avoid watching certain types of content you may not agree with. No support for other gaming platforms – unlike other similar platforms PS Vue doesn’t work on Xbox

We will take this opportunity to answer some commonly asked questions whilst we have your attention. So here’s what more you need to know about television antennas.

How can I get Cable-Free local TV? You can watch cable-free local TV by obtaining a TV antenna. You can scan for available channels in your region by attaching the HD antenna to your TV. That means the only cost you’ll have is the cost of getting one of the best available TV antennas. Alternatively, if you still want to watch cable TV channels (but without cable), for example, you can sign up for a media streaming service like Sling TVfuboTV (which also comes with monthly subscriptions). This means you can either go for an antenna to watch terrestrial (local) television channels, or you can pay a monthly fee for a media streaming service (all of which come with no long-term obligations).

What Are Free TV Channels With a TV Antenna?

Everything depends on how far you are from the nearest TV broadcast tower. If you’re within the distance of 20 miles from the nearest tower, you should be able to get plenty of TV channels without an amplifier. Nevertheless, if this distance is greater you will benefit greatly from an antenna that includes a signal booster made of steel.

Do antenna signals boost from aluminum foil?

Modern indoor and outdoor antennas today are generally capable of receiving long distance TV signals without the aid of aluminum foils.
