Youtubetv no longer listed as a provider?

YoutubeTv is not listed among the cable providers listed during set up of a new device. Yet, I am using them on all my current roku devices. Why isn't YouTubeTv listed?

Re: Youtubetv no longer listed as a provider?

Was it ever listed as a provider?  Those initial questions you answer on the website when you first activate a device only serve to provide a set of recommended channels/apps that will be automatically installed.  I don't believe it does anything to actually validate your provider and activate those channels/apps.  As far as I know you still have to do it the first time you launch the channel/app where it will once again ask you for a provider.  That's when YoutubeTV should show up if it's appropriate to the particular channel/app.
