Sounds like a you problem to me to. I'm able to fast forward through commercials. I'm watching on a computer, so that may be the reason if you're streaming it through a smart TV or something.

It's an issue with your setup that can be easily and cheaply worked around.

Please change thread title to, 'Official OP doesn't understand technology thread'.
The picture and production quality are pretty bad, but I haven't had too much trouble with the stream coming through or anything like the OP states. My biggest issue with the app is the level of difficulty in trying to catch another game on commercials. I can't get switched to regular tv to check another game and re-start the app in a normal commercial window. On my regular TV I can use the "back" button to switch back and forth between two games, and also have all my sports channels on a separate channel list that I can easily sift through to check other games on a commercial break.
I still say the worst part is how the Big 12 is positioned on the app.
I bounce in and the ISU game wasn't on the opening (Roku) page. Some rando games and sports, but I had to make an effort to search out the premier mother ******* game on the platform.
What's Yormark's email address?!?

Great point. Sorry to go slightly OT but this is a MAJOR issue when it comes to a conference like the PAC 12 trying to pin their hopes on streaming services to save their ass.
Can’t you tell Roku/ESPN/Hulu what your favorite teams are and it adjusts your opening page? I feel like whenever I open Hulu and go to “Sports” if an Iowa State game is on, it’s the first tile.
I haven't been on the Hulu app for quite some time. It used to pull up the Clones
Direct to ESPN doesn't seem to know or isn't talking to my old Hulu.
Either way. Big 12 football should never be down the list and behind some random D-II volleyball game.
I rarely watch TV so my level of effort will be low, but my goddam phone listens to my conversation and pushes ads my way....
It's the main reason I am adamant against streaming as a major part of a media deal. Your content has to be easy to access and forcing someone out of their normal TV viewing situation and into a separate app makes your content less available and more irrelevant to the non-die-hard fan.
Some won't be happy until Growing Pains is preempted on WOI to bring you Cyclone Basketball
Growing Pains will be seen after the 10:00 news tonight
Instead of using the cast option from the app, can't you just use the screen share option on your phone?
It’s a travesty of technology and the nerds that run it that YTTV hasn’t come up with a “flashback” feature that works at a single press of a button across platforms (fire, Roku, appletv, etc). TV didn’t get it all wrong.
Now TBF YTTV is working around that by going with the quad screen.
Hulu's great! All sports content in one place. No switching between apps when watching more than one event.
I assume this video pretty accurately describes the folks complaining about ESPN+
We seem to forget sending the kid up on the roof to spin the giant antenna.
Just so pops could watch channel 7.
These dang kids and their rock n roll music
I remember getting more tin foil for the rabbit ears. No cable TV for this kid.
Currently have YTTV, no ESPN+.
Looking at the pricing though, I could switch to Hulu with ads, Disney + no ads, and ESPN + with ads for $69.95 a month. That seems like a solid price.
