Good news for Fubo subscribers who want to watch multiple sporting events at once but don’t own an Apple TV. Fubo has started beta testing multiview on the Fire TV and Android TV. In the past, this feature had been limited to just the Apple TV.
No word yet on Roku or other devices adding this feature, but hopefully, it will be rolled out to more devices once the feature exits beta.
The new multiview feature will work very similarly to the YouTube TV multiview beta. Fubo will pick events that need a multiview and offer a special channel showing both. You will be able to pick which audio feed you want between the two options.
For now, it seems that Fubo is only testing splitscreen viewing. No options right now to watch four sporting events at once like you can with the Apple TV.
Here is the Fubo help page describing the Splitscreen beta test:
With the Splitscreen Beta:
- You’ll be able to watch two events at the same time
- Scheduled Splitscreen Beta events will be available through a temporary channel
- Splitscreen Beta events will be pre-selected
What devices is the Splitscreen Beta available on?
The full Fubo Splitscreen Beta experience will be available on Amazon Fire TV and Android TV devices.
How do I use the Splitscreen Beta?
Find and launch Splitscreen Beta temporary channels like you would any other event on Fubo.
To switch the audio feed between events:
- On your Amazon Fire TV or Android TV, use the left or right arrows on your remote’s directional pad to switch between the two separate audio feeds
- For all other devices, you’ll need to access the audio settings to switch audio feeds
- Audio settings can be found in the settings menu, accessible when watching video by using the up, down or OK/Enter buttons on your device remote, swiping down on the remote trackpad (Apple TV), or by tapping the screen (mobile devices and tablets)
- You will find the audio settings under the Subtitles & Audio option
- The options for each audio feed will be available; select to change the audio feed being played
How do I find scheduled Splitscreen Beta events?
Splitscreen channels will be available in your channel guide, in Browse While Watching, and on your Sports page.
On your Amazon Fire TV and Android TV devices, you will also be able to find Splitscreen channels (when available) on your Home Page.
