The IPTV Crackdown Continues: A Thread For Customers Not Resellers

[Toddy2]

Firesticks are junk anyway. Terrible UI, full of ads and awful memory/storage

I'm not a big fan but they are great for taking abroad and on holidays.
Mine was perfect in a Turkish hotel.
Don't think I would have taken the Shield Pro with me

You should have left it there 🤣

They’re ok if you’re only after basic use and not interested in watching anything super high quality. Try running implayer with vlc player and it’ll spontaneously combust.

Plus it’s a take that they don’t have a usb-c port. Although it’s the only Android non-tv device with channel 4.

I didn't want all that , it run Tivimate and VLC no problem.
I don't like imPlayer , it all fitted behind the hotel TV without them knowing.
I don't use it apart from traveling so not defending it's use as a go to device.
Hope you do well in the playoffs 😃

Thanks, but my team did not make the playoffs, they are already in the Prem 😆

I don't like imPlayer ,

It runs fine with the internal player, but when you use the external player, i.e. VLC, they struggle. Implayer has a timeshift function and that struggles on a firestick.

That's why you should have left it there 🤣

so not defending it's use as a go to device.

It's good as a go to device if all you are doing is running tivimate. The shield pro is overkill for those 25fps ifollow games, you'll need the firestick in 25/26 again.

I'm not a lover of the stick even though I use one on the TV upstairs,it does a turn.The one thing I thought was a p*ss take was the official ethernet adapter they sell for £15'ish.
I bought one thinking I'll get full wack now 300mbps but the adapters throttled at 100mbps

Easily enough for streaming though and I personally prefer Ethernet connection over WiFi on a streaming device.

The homatics stick device has that ethernet slot

Yes rip off cheap one from ebay will do the same job.

 

[mike123]

Makes you wonder how they sell so many if they are that bad🤔

Because the are cheap probably

 

[manic01]

Not particularly

 

[mike123]

Probably advise a chromestick over a firestick all day but what ever works for you works.

What vpn do you use for this please?

 

[Toddy2]

What vpn do you use for this please?

I used Express to sign up Egypt on Tablet then Stream locator app, but it's a bit hit and miss ATM, I think it works better for those with Stream locator hub!
Work in progress
