I tried watching via web browser on smart tv.  The browser on most tvs are not very navigation friendly.  I have also used xbox with similar results.  The picture quality was not the same and difficult to make full screen. 

I now use Apple TV and can easily stream full screen from either iphone or ipad.  Very easy to use and is like watching actual TV.  The picture is still dependent on the quality of the production.  Apple TV is $100 but google has a similar option that is one third the price. 

Go to internet options on TV menu.  Choose internet and type in the stretch video link or go to OhioBobcats.com and click on live events scroll to WMU game and click WATCH.

My smart tv is dumb so I usually just hook my laptop into the back of the tv and stream it from my computer. On my Vizio you have to switch the input to rgb and I hook it up with a cable for a computer monitor.

I usually hook up my laptop with the hdmi cord that is normally plugged into the back of the digital cable box.
