Youtube- General Operation

YOUTUBE- GENERAL OPERATION

YouTube will operate differently depending on the model type that you have.

Smart TV Model

Smart TV Features:

Smart TV models offer a more full-featured version of the YouTube interface than we have had available in the past few years.

Discover Channels- Channels break down content based on classifications such as Animated, Comedy, Family, etc...

Search- Allows you to search for specific content.

My YouTube- This is used to link the application with your existing YouTube account.

Featured- Allows you to view content based on popularity and recent trends.

Accessing your account

The Smart TV version of YouTube doesn't allow you to sign in directly using your username and password.

The Smart TV version works similar to the activation code method used by Netflix. The TV will generate an activation code and you will need to enter the code at http://www.youtube.com/activate.
