More hassle than they are worth for important stuff.

 

Missing half a big boxing match trying to find a working link or it going off after 70 mins of a big game is no fun at all.

 

Stick it on a telly in your kitchen and use it for stuff your not that arsed about, mnf etc.

 

Either go the whole way and get a proper dodgy box wired to your dish or just pay the dough and stick with sky.

As said above, there's a massive Android TV thread in the Geeky section.

 

Ultimately they're ace for movies and box sets. For sports they're a bit hit and miss... but better than nowt.

 

If you're looking at one for a replacement for SKY then don't bother, it'll do your head in. If you're after a straight replacement then get a Zgemma box.

What's currently the best app for sport/films on kodi?

 

probably exodus or salts for films and tv shows

 

sport is all about on the day

 

try zem tv

 

i've watched 2 nfl games on there which have been faultless

 

american stuff is usually a lot better than sky sports though

then the rest takes care of itself once i install stuff?

 

Did you ever get around to sorting this? I'm at a point where Sky is starting to cost too much again.

Yeah

 

Pretty happy with it

 

Sometimes a bit temperamental with the wi fi connection but does what I want it to regards film, tv and sport

 

For £40 it's worth it

Buffering?

 

No good for watching live tv

In what respect? Still best to get a Firestick and Kodi?
