Early on, I got reply from tourgigs suggesting to try Puffin TV or TV Cast apps. I was not going to purchase ticket if I could not watch. But for some reason, I could not find Puffin app on my Roku tv or Firestick. The one thing I found that would work is the Firefox app on Firestick, which allowed me to access the livestream page. So I felt safe and couple hours before show I signed up and bought ticket. As the pre-show started, it only showed the bottom third of picture at top of screen. I went to computer and tried. It did show full picture but looked like crap and buffered big time! I was NOT going to watch that way! I tried multiple things for over an hour with no luck, so finally gave up. Saturday afternoon tried again with same results and again that evening and again on Sunday and still nothing.
Learning about TV cast, it doesn't help that I do not have a smartphone and cannot cast/mirror to tv. My computer runs Windows 7, so I could not get it to mirror to tv. Also tried my Surface tablet but could not get it to connect to tv. Tried Xbox 360, downloading IE without luck.
These things should not be that hard for the average person to do. I like simple. I want to open app, login, purchase, watch. TSO did not give me that option. If so, they did a crappy job of letting everyone know the procedure. This has left a bad taste in my mouth. I was so excited about finally being able to watch TSO at home on the big screen. After the crappy year everyone has had, this is not how I wanted to end the year. I hate Christmas time as it is and this did not help matters!
Again, if any of you can let me know how you watched it, I can be better prepared next time. Thanks!
From my PC with Chrome to my Chromecast on the television. Easy and quick to get it done.
