Last month YouTube TV announced new Multivie support that will now support sports and news channels. With this update, you will be able to watch multiple news channels or sports channels at the same time. Now YouTube TV is adding even more multiview options, including Spanish packages.
Today you may notice some new Multiview options, including a four-window Deportes option with four different Spanish sports packages. Some readers are also reporting more two-channel options for news and sports, allowing you to watch two channels at once.
This is great news for news fans that want to watch breaking news from multiple news networks at once. It will also help you see the big sports news from multiple sources.
This comes as YouTube TV has promised to roll out more multiview features that let you watch more than one channel at once. For now, you are limited on what channels are supported, but hopefully, soon, more channels will be added. Maybe someday, we will even be able to pick what channels we want in our multiview.
If you want to find these new multiview channels, you will find a new Multiview hub on the YouTube TV home screen with all the available multiview channels.
Here is a quick helpful FAQ YouTube TV posted about this new multiview option:
