Home › YouTube TV Multiview Alternative

Watch any 4 channels at once, not just the ones you are offered.

YouTube TV multiview is limited to preset matchups on eligible content. RunTV puts any four channels from your own playlist on one screen, in eight layouts, and your phone is the remote.

The difference in one line

YouTube TV decides which games can share a screen. RunTV lets you decide.

ContentIncluded with the planYou bring your own playlist
RunTV is a player, not a content service. It does not include or resell any channels. You bring the M3U playlist or Xtream Codes login you already have, exactly like VLC.

Eight layouts, switched from your phone

Full screen, two side by side, one big plus two, a 2x2 grid, picture in picture and more. Change the layout mid game, drag a stream from one zone to another, or throw a single game back to full screen for the last two minutes.

Any four channels you like, not just the matchups you are offered.

Sunday with four games on

Put the four you care about on the screen at once, keep the audio on the close one, and swap it the moment another game gets interesting. Live Games matches each fixture to a channel inside your own playlist, so you are not hunting through a channel list while a drive is happening.

Frequently asked

Why can I not pick my own channels in YouTube TV multiview?
YouTube TV builds multiview from preset combinations chosen by Google, and only on eligible content, mostly major live sports. You choose from the offered bundles rather than assembling your own set of four channels.
Is there a multiview app that lets me choose any channel?
Yes. RunTV shows up to four streams from your own M3U playlist or Xtream Codes login on one screen, in any combination, with eight layouts including split screen, picture in picture and a 2x2 grid.
Can I hear only one of the four streams?
Yes. You tap the zone you want to hear and the audio follows it, while the others keep playing muted. You can switch at any time without stopping playback.
Do I need a subscription for RunTV multiview?
No. RunTV is free with no ads and no subscription. You supply your own IPTV playlist or provider login, the same way you would in VLC.
What devices support 4 channels at once?
Apple TV and Android TV, including Fire TV Stick, Nvidia Shield and Google TV. Your phone acts as the remote and can also play a stream itself.
