The issue is with tv.youtube.com. The browser points you to the mobile Android App and not the laptop version once you login. It just invites you to install the App on your phone which I did. You cannot cast the YouTube TV App like you can with the regular YouTube App. So the backoffice links need a refinement. The Silk Browser does not work either.

Here is what happens. After you login to tv.youtube.com you get the Welcome Screen that I attached but cannot go further. The only link on the screen is to download the mobile Android app which I already have on my phone. Instead of the Welcome Screen you should see the navigation page to view LIVE TV. I DO have a paid subscription!

Hi

If you do not have the default YouTube tile on the Firefox for Fire TV homescreen, use the address bar to go to http://www.youtube.com/tv .

This will take you to YouTube and it should open without a problem.

The situation I am referring to is watching LIVE TV (sports, news etc.) using the paid subscription to YouTube TV service. Many people get confused when people say YouTube now works on their TV via Fire TV Firefox. That is what you are referring to http://www.youtube.com/tv. But that is for pre recorded videos you can get on your PC etc at youtube.com. Very different than trying to watch LIVE YouTube TV on Fire TV.
