What is PCN Select?

PCN Select is the Pennsylvania Cable Network's online video streaming service. PCN Select enables viewers to access PCN content anytime, anywhere, on your favorite device with a PCN Select subscription.

Our Election coverage is always free and so is our public affairs event coverage. Retro PCN clips, Weather World, and Civics 101 are free as well as clips and testimonials for many of our programs.

Download the PCN Select mobile application to watch the network live or stream multiple events on your favorite device. The PCN Select app is a free download from any online application marketplace and available on FireTV, Roku, and for Android 4.0+, iOS 4.0+, iOS 8.1, and iPad2+. For the best quality streams, we recommend streaming on a wired connection with high-speed internet. PCN Select is not compatible with Chromecast or other screen mirroring options.

Certain content requires a PCN Select subscription. Stream multiple channels to watch live or choose from a variety of PCN originals like PCN Tours, PA Books, or Gettysburg Battlewalks to watch on demand anytime.

Can I share my PCN Select Account?

Only one person can be registered to an account at a time. Subscribers can be logged into three devices simultaneously.

Why is the stream quality poor/excessive buffering/freezing?

Live streaming is subject to many potential issues. Bandwidth is always variable – due to server, hardware, and traffic conditions that change minute-to-minute across the Internet. Here are some tips for troubleshooting:

We recommend watching live streams on a wired internet connection.

Make sure you have the latest browser or App updates.

Make sure you have sufficient free memory and drive space on your PC for video playback/caching.

Minimize additional traffic on your network if necessary to reduce buffering.
