Kodi so far....

Well, I have been using this program on my desktop for quite some time now (asande Sana @Jazzman for the heads-up on it)
I have it on Windows and Ubuntu OS. So far it has been working good; save for Live Tv (specifically football)
Unfortunately it doesn’t flow as it should on Windows platform (I guess its due to other programs and apps that access the net in the background). So every now and then it will keep on buffering. Other times I just pause and let it load (some servers will comply, others zinakungoja apo kaa doggy).
So I decided to stick with Ubuntu. On it one has an option of either opening it alongside other programs or simply create a login, have it load as the only GUI in the login options and that allows full net usage dedicated to it.
Now, with the latter option, even the Live tv is streaming with less buffering on SD save for bad traffic; mind you am on the 1Mbps package.
The other issue that might hinder flawless Live tv viewing is accessing well known (and most accessed) tv stations like SKY sports, BT sports and the likes. I switched to the little known ones like Russia’s Sport Klub, Supersport (not the DSTV one) and apparently they stream so well.
Other less known add-ons like FREE STREAMS are a fantastic option for those with better packages, as it offers HD streams.
Final verdict. Am now planning to upgrade to the 15Mbps which is the next best (wish they didn’t discontinue the 4&8Mbps package). I hope that will allow me to stream in HD too coz they’re in plenty.
Ama Kodi itakuja vamiwa kaa Torrents tuanze kurudi kwa DSTFU.

Kodi inavamiwaje kama Torrents? In Kenya no copyright troll gives shit if you pirate or not. I saw a guide on this website about taking the streaming link and placing it on your server. I think it was by a mod. That would be a better bufferless option.

GUI NI UMBWA AMA USER INTERFACE

Simaanishi on my end. Its the source that’s usually targeted. Venye Piratebay na Kat huwa zinatafutwa juu chini.
Hio ya kuweka link on my server sina idea

Kwani KAT na piratebay ndio the only torrent sites?
Hata kodi iko na alternatives.

Stopped using Kodi because the addons mostly grab flash streams. That is if you are lucky to get a working source. Though I have to give it a thumbs up, buffering is not that big of an issue. Just don’t try live tv/sports.

https://www.reddit.com/r/soccerstreams/ + ace stream works well enough for EPL matches in HD 95% of the time.

Natumia sportsdevil lakini jana nilijaribu kustream game fulani ya Denmark, links za game ziko but they were all dead.

Sportsdevil niliachana nayo juu ya kusumbua; iko poa siku hizi?
Ongezea ‘UK Turk Playlist’ na ‘Castaway’, as alternatives. kuna Live Tv mob sana

Live tv ndo mambo yote kwa Kodi

live tv esp entertainment channels just don’t work for me. I just want to watch Nat Geo for free but Kodi addons won’t allow me to stream even a good minute. Damn these addons!

Which add-ons are you currently using? I’m currently using Dubstop for my series, UK Turk Playlist & Castaway for Live tv. And they are working perfectly so far (i expect glitches along the way anyway) I managed to even stream a 720p series of Mythbusters and it only took few seconds (120 hapo) to buffer and the rest was flawless. But i’ve also realised that it depends with the source. Anything written ‘STREAMIN’ kwa Dubstop is working fantastic (well, most of them so far)

Thank you @123tokambio for these addons. I have both castaway & UK turk but I have to admit I overlook them in favor of more live TV centered addons such as LIVE TV(blue icon), filmon, dnatv etc. I will try to fiddle with the above leo jioni.

Start poking around in Navi-X and your experience will never be the same. Coupled with Dexter and ccloud.

By the way how does one use (or go about it using) VPN when running on a smart TV (samsung/LG) juu nafikiria ku-upgrade soon. I realised tweaks are coming out on how to install Kodi on this smart tvs

Haven.t had a successful one yet. Every vpn I’ve tried failed

Dstv is that nagging wife…you know she’s bad for you and plan to leave her but you just cant. Utazunguka kodi brothels mwishowe utarudi nyumbani. Same goes for safcon.

Weka kodi kaka… Hutarudia huyo DSTWife tena. Instead uta-upgrade mitambo na mtandao…

Niko nayo kwa PC. Nikaupgrade to zuku i15 eti nienjoy live streams za matches. The experience i tell you my brother wacha tu! Buffering kwa live match unaend up kufollow mechi kwa livescore on phone.
Saw i was getting a crappy deal and swiftly moved back to dstv.
Only thing i miss are the crystal clear series on istream because now am forced to use putlocker(not too bad, just not as clear)

Eish! Buda. Hapo iko shida.
