Tubecast Pro seems to have mastered the fluid stream that plagued the others. I eventually gave up on all of them and resorted to just streaming YouTube directly from the web site through a web browser.īut, a new app, Tubecast Pro, has found its way into my good graces recently. One of the more glaring and annoying quirks is how each seems to stutter video during the stream.

There are a couple notable ones like Hyper for YouTube, Prime Tube, and Metro Tube, but they all have their quirks. I found out quickly that there's a huge number of YouTube apps for Windows 8.1, and none of them are great.

YouTube is full of these old, beloved boxing matches, and when I first started watching them I attempted to use a couple Windows store apps to manage my YouTube playlists and stream the fights. My energy level and available time for the day determines which type I watch. A full 15-round boxing match lasts a little over an hour and 15 minutes, and one where there's a knockout in the mid rounds lasts a little over 45 minutes. I'm also a huge boxing fan, and have found that old boxing matches (Muhammad Ali, Sugar Ray Leonard, Larry Holmes and others) work even better to envelop my thoughts and keep me from continually checking the mileage.

If I can get caught up in a flick, the treadmill miles melt away. I erected a shelf that sits in front of the belted demon where I sit my Surface Pro 3 and stream movies and TV from Netflix, HuluPlus, Amazon Prime, Crackle and others. And, even more recently, I used it despite some nice weather just to do some comparison testing for the Microsoft Band's treadmill tracking capabilities.īut, even though we call it the "dreadmill" I have concocted a way to make it a little less burdensome. I hate the treadmill – but I still use it when the weather is just too nasty.
