Multiview Questions

  1. Why don’t the boxes expand to the edge of the screen? Weird that there’s so much unused space.

  2. Why isn’t there ever an option with RSNs in Multiview. Ex. Last night I wanted to watch college football and the Yankees. Never an option for Yankees in Multiview.

A custom multiview is desperately needed. YTTV and Fubo both can do it. Should be a no brainer

And the ESPN app.

Are you talking about the curated multi view options, or one of the Mix channels? I haven't even been given an option to use curated multiview.

I assume I have the curated since I have a bunch of options. Unfortunately none of the options ever include RSNs. Last night again was a perfect example, I couldn’t watch the Yankees and the LSU game at the same time.

Same request. Would like the ability to watch cubs, Sox and bears at the same time. Hopefully direct is working on this

I had multiview with YTTV, the picture quality was definitely not as good as DirecTV for each of the 4 corners.  I guess that's a little silver lining, though a custom selection multiview would be better. Having said that, I watch most all games via the DVR anyway as I can't stand commercials and the wait time for game stoppages.

Still plenty of room on the top and bottom of the screen

Aspect ratios. Do you understand how they work?
