Are you using a Fire TV, Fire TV Stick, PS3, or PS4?

Fire TV with wired internet connection but even with wired connection SLING and Watch ESPN always had pretty crappy quality with lots of stutter.
So far none. Just a little slow jumping from channel to channel. But...was even slower moving channels with Watch ESPN or Sling.
Ok, about 15 minutes and I noticed no blips, stutter, judder. Continuous stream. Quality is lower than normal cable HD but not bad.
I'll cancel before the trial ends, but they will have my money during football season.

Ok. Now that I've had more time to watch a few things on Vue, my original review stands.
Game Changer. As long as they don't jack the price up.
The difference between sling and Vue is the difference between a high school football team and the Super Bowl winner. Sounds like hyperbole, but it isn't.
When I used sling last football season, the stream was choppy and live events had crappy quality. I didn't mind since it was $25 bucks but it wasn't high quality. Also hung up a lot when they went to commercials.
The only slowdown with Vue is some slight buffering when I start a movie. And by slight I mean slight.
I have no idea if the network will get clogged as word gets out and maybe by football season the streaming quality will have dipped, but for now Vue absolutely destroys sling for an additional $10 per month.

Do you have to have psn plus to get VUE?
Posted on 4/3/16 at 4:06 pm to Modern
You have to have a PSN acccount, which is free to register
You can do it on their site
Once you have one you can subscribe to Vue. You need a Ps4,ps3,fire TV or fire stick to use it
I recommend a Ps4 or a fire tv

The only issue I've had is there is a lag when you try to fast forward a show at first, but once it gets going, no issue.

Anyone having a hitch pausing live TV? What I found I've had to do is select 'start over' and it'll load the DVR/recording of the live show to pause.

I saw a vid on YouTube saying you can only have 1 of each kind of device running on a system? Like one fire tv and one ps4 but not 3 fire tvs? Is this old info or is that how it is.
Posted on 4/3/16 at 8:57 pm to NOLAGT
I've heard that it only works on one ps4 in a household. Haven't heard anything about the fire TV's being restricted to one though.
Posted on 4/3/16 at 9:03 pm to GeauxLSUGeaux
One PS4
One ps3
Any combination of the other devices

Does ps vue have sec network?

If not, bleh. Sucks.

Yes. Sec Network is available.
I know there is an app for IPhone/iPad. Have not attempted to AirPlay but I assume it can be.

Just did that and got a $15.00 credit. So I bought another one for $69.99. Can't beat that deal.
Thanks for the heads up.

Silly question I guess, but I'm assuming you'd have to make the purchase from Amazon initially? I just bought one from Best Buy

PS Vue does have sec network, and you can also use your credentials through vue to access all of the WatchESPN content
I'm not understanding your question about being airplay'd to your apple tv?
