Previous versions of Teamviewer could be used to transmit and receive streaming television and video. Has this functionality been permanently removed in the 2025 version?
There has never been a dedicated streaming functionality in TeamViewer; however, there's nothing preventing you from watching videos on a remote device. Nothing has changed on our side, so you should be able to see anything that is displayed on the remote device, as expected.
I've always been able to watch streaming television and streaming movies playing on a remote computer using Teamviewer. This has suddenly stopped. You only get a blank screen when you attempt this now. I'm just trying to find out if this is due to an official policy change and that I'll never be able to watch streaming video again.
Hi @Jefflevin,
Thank you for reaching out!
I am not sure what exactly you mean - TeamViewer has never offered a streaming service.
Could you be more specific about what you want to achieve with TeamViewer?
