Traf Posted October 19, 2013 Posted October 19, 2013 Right, I've got it up at running on a old PC that sits under my tele. Easier said than done. Managed to get a (shit) stream of a game up, it's the same streams as all the usual websites. No sign of this Mashup thing so I'm using SportsDevil. No idea what this NaviX thing is doing. I'm probably missing the point wildly here (as usual in this section! ), but if you can get those streams elsewhere, why use that box? Quote
Carlos Posted October 19, 2013 Posted October 19, 2013 I might be wrong but the usual sources pop up a load of adverts and shit. This is more channel based than per game. Quote
Traf Posted October 19, 2013 Posted October 19, 2013 The one I use carries all the sky channels, bt sport and the espn ones, as well as at the races and racing uk and I just run adblocker to stop any ads. Quote
Danny G Posted October 20, 2013 Posted October 20, 2013 Have a look on ebay for Skybox F5s with free gift! mines been up and running for 18 months Quote
Danny G Posted October 20, 2013 Posted October 20, 2013 It wont be running for much longer. Not fussed ive had my moneys worth Quote
barryk32 Posted October 20, 2013 Posted October 20, 2013 Exactly the correct way to think about it. Card sharing has been around for ages, Sky weren't really arsed as its useage was minimal due to every fucker stealing Virgin instead. Once Virgin made it really difficult to steal thier product folk moved on to robbing off Sky. They are just getting round to putting a stop to it now. Watching through the internet is the future I reckon, be it through sites that folk keep trying to block or these dongles. Quote

DazBob Posted October 21, 2013 Posted October 21, 2013 if it looks like my contact lenses have moved, i am out whats the point Called round to a mate's on Saturday and he's got jailbroken apple TV. Looks exactly the same as what I'm getting. Anyway, the quality of the picture was faultless. Quote
Carlos Posted October 21, 2013 Posted October 21, 2013 Well my 1channel stopped working, no idea why. Had used it to watch some filums, which is quite useful (for free). I've changed my repository to http://xfinity.xbmctalk.com/ and installed Mashup from there, I also installed their wizard and it all works again. Quote
Carlos Posted October 21, 2013 Posted October 21, 2013 Got all my Portuguese SportTV channels and currently watching O Preço Certo (The Price is Right) on RTP1. Boooooom. Quote
DazBob Posted October 21, 2013 Posted October 21, 2013 I'm up and running! For £75 its a bargain. Can't seem to find an HD stream for Sky Sports, but still plenty good enough for me. The amount of films and TV shows tgare available is just ridiculous! Quote
DazBob Posted October 21, 2013 Posted October 21, 2013 Got a Sky Sports HD link on now using SportsDevil for the Fulham match. It's HDish but not proper HD. It's not costing me owt though. Android TV is ace. Quote
Sweep Posted October 21, 2013 Posted October 21, 2013 I'll have to have a butchers at that and get myself one if it's decent Quote
YTARMY Posted October 21, 2013 Posted October 21, 2013 All the sky sports channels working on the Navi x repo On the Navi x repo click on most watched 24 hours and the yellow sky sports link the sports pack is all on Porkys playlist has got the Bt sports on Navi x is pretty much the dogs Quote
aidybwfc Posted October 22, 2013 Author Posted October 22, 2013 Just installed it all on my phone (s4) and ordered myself a hdmi tv output from my phone. Should be up and running when it arrives and on the phone to cancel my sky Quote
Horwich Posted October 23, 2013 Posted October 23, 2013 I wont be any good if you are betting in running Quote
Traf Posted October 23, 2013 Posted October 23, 2013 I wont be any good if you are betting in running No I know, there's not much around that is any good, unless you can get SIS feed. I just watch to watch it without paying Racing UK. Quote
Horwich Posted October 23, 2013 Posted October 23, 2013 You will be able to get it....download xmbc on your pc and have a look Quote
Smiley Posted October 23, 2013 Posted October 23, 2013 apple TV or Android? Which is the best option for all of this? Quote
Sweep Posted October 23, 2013 Posted October 23, 2013 apple TV or Android? Which is the best option for all of this? I thought that you were a fully paid up "apple Wanker" I can't believe that you would consider an Android product Quote
Smiley Posted October 23, 2013 Posted October 23, 2013 I thought that you were a fully paid up "apple Wanker" I can't believe that you would consider an Android product Agree but the apple TV's chipped appear to be £150+ Quote
Smiley Posted October 23, 2013 Posted October 23, 2013 To summarise. I can either get a box for this attached to the TV - presume this needs the Sky dish cables running into it???? OR Just go into the settings on my iPad or old iPhone and use that to run this XBMC and then get a cable to link to the TV??** **This option sounds a bit wank. Quote
