However, there are some restrictions to note. Users cannot freely select any game for multiview; instead, YouTube pre-selects the games available for this feature. Users can create combinations from the four pre-selected games. Multiview is currently exclusive to smart TVs and smart streaming devices, excluding phones and tablets.
The article also mentions that the multiview feature allows users to have two to four games playing simultaneously on their screen, with the option to switch the audio stream between them. To create a personalized multiview, users can follow specific steps within the YouTube app on their smart TV.
It’s highlighted that YouTube multiview offloads the processing requirements to YouTube’s servers instead of the user’s TV. This approach enables all subscribers to utilize the feature, as their device only receives one live feed, simplifying the viewing experience for users.
