Serge Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 I've an M8 box but am unable to get any sport or movies. Genesis, IceFilms, Mutts Nuts are all addons that have been installed and all seem OK. All are latest upgrades. But when you go to latest movies, there's nothing there. Phoenix only gives icons for NHL and settings. I've installed Kodi Isengard 15.2. Repos added are Fusion, xfinity and SuperRepo. It's daein ma heid in. Any ideas anyone?

I'm no expert bud, I have had this problem and it's been sorted by doing two things for me. 1/ giving the box enough time to load all the addons after powering it up. 2/ clearing the cache and purging packages Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a similar problem once and it turned out that it was because it wasnt connected to the interenet. I had it pluged in with the ethernet but wasnt recognising it for some reason. I just unplugged it all including the ethernet and then put it back on and it worked fine. I was confused because I could still go into Kodi and the apps with no internet connection but the movies didnt show up. Wonder if you have the same problem?

In fact I can even watch Sportsmania that has been installed from the USB without a problem. It just seems to be the online repositories that aren't working. i'll maybe try to download some repos and install them tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wisey1981 Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 Guys, bought a T8 box after reading this thread. Managed to download Phoenix and genesis but nothing seems to work. When I go into genesis I can see list such as "new movies" it tries to load and nothing happens. Phoenix only has the hockey item but it doesn't work either . Anyone got any hints? Or knows somewhere I can read up on it? Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rudolf's Mate Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 Amazon Fire TV every time. I used Kodi on other devices for over 3 years and looked heavily into several boxes. It came down to the T8 or Amazon Fire. I opted for the Amazon Fire in January and haven't regretted it. Jack D got the Amazon Fire on the back of my recommendation however he also got the T8 later on. He'll tell you himself that the Amazon Fire edges it.

Any help will be much appreciated Pay a bit more mate trust me. You'll only end up doing it anyway. The Amazon Fire TV box or a T8 are the ones you want. The slightly older T8... https://www.entertainmentbox.com/shop/t8-aml-v2-amlogic-s802-quad-core-2-0-ghz-android-4-4-mini-4k-tv-box/ Or the V3... https://www.entertainmentbox.com/shop/t8-aml-v3-e-box-latest-tv-box-fastest-tv-box-16gb-s812-gigabit-ethernet-dual-band-wifi-4k-this-is-the-best-tv-box-ever/ For the extra tenner I'd get the new one myself. Firesticks are ok but if your installing a wizard like Wookie it will develop problems, freezing up and stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cyprus Jambo Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 Guys, I may have mentioned it before but looking at the Amazon fire too as finally gave up paying Sky. I have KODI on laptop and watching films is fine and not internet worry, haven't really found anything to watch football on but not too worried as hardly find the time (ill wife and a 2 year old daughter too look after). I get fed up that I can't use the lap top as it's connected to the TV to watch the films but the Amazon fire will sort that. My issue; if you haven't seen it reported recently, I live right next to the worse street for internet download in Scotland and only get 1.2 at times, would the Amazon fire work with this or do I need to wait until we get fibre at some stage or at least a better download speed.

I might be wrong but I'm sure I've seen 6gbps quoted as being the ideal speed for not having issues. That said, I was at around 4mbps a few years back and it was largely fine though it was via laptop. Personally I think you'd really struggle with 1.2. Even the likes of Netflix etc say around 3 or might even be 4mbps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whenever I watch stuff it just plays that little bit better. Ellie's got the stick in her bedroom however she barely uses it. When I give her the Xbone on her birthday I'm going to try it on that however it (stick) might end up getting hi-jacked and put in my bedroom. If she moans I'll probably get one of the newer AFTV's.

AlimOzturk Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 Using 15.1 without any issues using the beast build and and the Amazon fire stick. Excellent for watching movies ect but i have found live TV a bit of a pain in the arse at times. Lucky i very rarely watch anything live on it othet than the odd sporting event. What is the legality of getting rid of tv licence? Got rid of sky, netflix and spotify so might as well go full circle and pay absoloutly nout!

Cheers bud, just downloaded 15.2 on to my MacMini, but bottled out of allowing it on my system. The reason I have a Mac now is my old Windows pc got hit with a Cryptowall ransomware virus and it encrypted all my jpegs,mpegs and doc files.

That's why I embraced XBMC (Kodi) around 4+ years ago, as I was fed up having to re-install my OS etc. I paid for a decent service and they were quite hot in filtering out crap like this but inevitably some slipped through.
