On Apple TV I don't see a separate app for NBC Golf.

Interesting, but I'm happy with NBC Sports for EPL games
Welp...just canceled D Now and switched to Vue. No locals on D Now or network app access using DirecTV Now as provider. That and it only worked about 40% of the time. Most of the time it showed guide info, but I couldn't get it to connect to a channel stream. Just a nice background for the channel and horizontal blue line through the screen. On a Gigabit connection.
I hope Vue is better. On a positive note, I am enjoying the Apple TV.

Something sounds off. Only had one or two stream issues. Works great 99% of the time.
Anyone having issues today where only about half the channels show up on the guide?

Yep. Not sure if there's a fix, but pretty annoyed right now.

I've settled on an old Star Trek since BBC still works.
Having the same problem. Kind of ironic considering I was just talking about not having any issues. What I did figure out though is that if you select what you can it still lets you swipe to the next channel even though you can't select it from the guide. They better fix issues like this quick.
Are others also having more issues with the ticker at the bottom of shows like sports center being somewhat blurry? Didn't used to have the issue, and still don't if I'm using the ESPN app, but watching ESPN inside DTV Now app is pretty frustrating.
Just got an email from directv. I imagine their problems are stemming from the fact that they turned on hbo, Cinemax, and starz for everyone this weekend.
Pretty much the apex of movies. So, what's the problem again?gougler08 said:WoMD said:gougler08 said:

Nicolas Cage's southern accent is so authentic it makes the movie perfect

I got Direct TV Now this month pretty much for the free Apple TV. It's been alright so far. Haven't had too much trouble but will probably switch to whatever else comes out next that's better.
I just got an email that my 3mo period is up and my price is increasing to $60St_Jason said:
Here are some of the channels, though there isn't a complete list yet
No DVR functions yet though they said they will be adding that in 2017. No roku support yet, but again will be adding in 2017. If you buy in for the "Go Big" package during the "introductory period" it will be 35 a month instead of 60, and as long as you are subscribed you will be grandfathered in to the 35 a month price point.
If that's the case...I'll be switching to PS Vue soonOasisMan said:I just got an email that my 3mo period is up and my price is increasing to $60St_Jason said:

I didn't get one
This is what I received. Looks like the $35/mo deal is still valid as long as you don't change your plan.

When you signed up for our introductory Go Big offer at $35/mo, you scored an incredible deal that's no longer available (it's now $60!). Remember to stay with your Go Big plan, and you'll keep on saving!
yeah thats my understanding too
at least it better be!

We've been using only the AppleTV and DirecTV Now for the last few weeks. Going to put the DirecTV subscription on hold for the next 6 months and see how DTV Now develops. Most of the time we're only watching WatchESPN anyway. I wish in the DTV Now guide they'd list the teams versus only "Men's Basketball."
I switched to Vue anyway. Liking it better. More reliable, more consistent on-demand availability and DVR. My Vue Plan is only $29.99 month and includes all the channels that I watch on a regular basis. When football season rolls around, I'll upgrade to the $34.99 package to get all of the conference networks (including SEC Network) and NFL Network (can reportedly add RedZone).
In Vue's $29.99 a month plan I get DIY which available until DirecTV Now's 3rd tier package. With the inclusion of ABC, NBC, and Fox on demand it is a much more complete option for me. The downside to Vue is that HBO and Showtime cost more to add ($15/mo each vs $5/mo each) I'll likely only subscribe to the premiums sporadically (to watch GoT live and to periodically binge watch other stuff).

As long as you do not switch plans or stop the service, you will be grandfathered at $35 for as long as you use DTV Now. They are just alluding to the fact that the plan you have, should you sign up for it today outside of the intro period, would cost you $60/month.
Be careful. I had to cancel my debit card, but forgot to change the card on DirectTV now. Well it was due on the 8th, realized on the 9th what had happened but had already lost the $35 price. Went back to sling.
Thanks for the heads up!
I had to have a new CC issued too.

I added HBO a few weeks ago. Didn't affect my grandfathered service. Cool you get HBO Go but the downside is you only get two HBO channels on DirecTV Now. Makes sense why it's $5.
Still a great value for the HBO GO access though.Pman17 said:

I rarely actually watch directv now... it's pretty much just for the access to apps. Kids use the Disney apps to watch shows all the time. I use hbogo ESPN and NBC sports apps. I guess directv now will get used more once baseball season gets underway here in a month or so... but use OTA or apps for most watching currently.
I took the advice of users on the directv now subreddit and set up my account to pay with paypal. If you already have money in paypal, there's your buffer in case of card denial. If not, you can load multiple credit cards into your paypal account.
I read through this entire thread a few weeks ago when I signed up for DirecTV Now, but I have a quick question for you all. I have the "Just Right" package and I have AT&T as my carrier. My understanding is that the data used for DTVN is not counted in my monthly allotment. However, if I stream outside the DTVN app and sign into WatchESPN and stream an Aggie baseball game on mobile data does this use up my monthly data or is it still free for signing in with my DTVN account? Any help would be appreciated.

Is streaming sponsored on other network apps if I sign in with my DIRECTV NOW account?
No. Currently, this offer applies to content you view while signed in to the DIRECTV NOW app only.
Edit, more apps available but still no FOX sports go.
