Streaming General Conference
Is it now possible to watch General Conference or BYU Channel live on Youtube? This page has a link to General Confernece Youtube Channel, and I also read another article that YouTube is starting to support Live Streaming so I was curious if that was the case. I just got a new Sony Blu-Ray Player (which includes an app for YouTube) so was wondering if we could watch it live that way.

I would appreciate any ideas anyone has. Thank you.

Great. This is good news. I tested other live streams with my Google Chromecast and it seems to work fine, however I don't think live streams work on my Sony Blu-Ray player. Does anyone have any advice on how to get this to work...or if it can?

Re: Streaming General Conference
I'm having the same problem as kpraeger. I can live stream conference from Youtube on my computer, my laptop, and my phone and tablet (from the youtube app) but I cannot get it to stream live on my Sony TV (granted it's 10 years old but it has an hdmi port) through my Sony BluRay. I keep getting an error saying that the video is not available on my device. Even when I try to get it to stream from my phone (using the cast icon), it apparently tries to launch the Youtube app on blue-ray and I get the same error.
Any other ideas?

Re: Streaming General Conference
Check the manufacturer's website for any updates to the BluRay player.
Failing that, you may have to attach something else to play the stream.

Re: Streaming General Conference
I just wanted to update this thread. This happens to me every year. We have a new TV and the YouTube app on that TV will not allow us to watch conference. We can chrome cast it from my phone for one session but then subsequent sessions error out. Has anyone else had this issue?

In attempting to chromecast I get this message "The manifest could not be loaded (SOURCE_COULD_NOT_LOAD_MANIFEST}"

I used to turn on the satellite system and walk away for the day.
Streaming from the Church website with a laptop, I now have to stick around to reload the web page every 45 minutes. The members are reluctant to get up and play with an unfamiliar machine that does not belong to one of them.

Re: Streaming General Conference
Is the laptop shutting down or the site? Are you using the church website or YouTube.

Church website. The feed goes dim and into the three block buffer and never recovers.russellhltn wrote: Is the laptop shutting down or the site? Are you using the church website or YouTube.
I reload the page, click the arrow again, and everything is fine, except for the seconds of the webcast that we missed. I usually do not adjust back unless the speaker was at a critical part of his talk. If I do adjust back, I click Live when the choir next sings.
