Cannot be used for live broadcasting

The device is suitable for playing local files and streaming Internet content. This is poor or unsuitable for use on live television. Bad for streaming programs through YouTube TV service because the volume for commercials is 2-4 times the volume of the program, so we have to constantly adjust the volume. It also stutters when streaming and starts to buffer - the program we're watching pauses and we have to resume the pause - we have a 200mb internet service that usually tests speeds in excess of 215 so this doesn't represent internet speed can be held responsible. Totally unsuitable for live TV streaming via YouTube TV service as YTTV wants to verify device location and it matches your account location - we believe device OS (modded Android phone OS) is trying to use the GPS antenna for verification. , which does not exist in the device, not the IP address. The device can't be verified and YouTube TV won't let you watch the live stream without verification. We can confirm that everything is fine on two different Windows 10 devices and we can watch live TV on them using the YTTV app. If you intend to use it with a live TV streaming service, this probably isn't the right device for you. Other than that, the device is slightly better than most Android TV devices, but since we intended to use this device to host live TV services, we can't give it a good rating.
