jack D and coke Posted October 6, 2015 Share Posted October 6, 2015 Quite annoyed that Wookie has cut ties with Sports Donkey as I had a logon via Wookie Pro and it was the best sports streaming I had. Hope it gets replaced with something decent, don't fancy a paid subscription as I only really watch the occasional game on a Saturday or Sunday, was more for NFL Redzone on Sunday nights. Sent from my SM-G900F using Tapatalk Wookie have to replace it. They've been charging money for basically Sports Donkey as everything else is free so they have to come up with something. Donkey had become a complete pain in the arse anyway. When it worked it was good but the log in had become a huge carry on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When it worked it was good but the log in had become a huge carry on. When Donkey got blocked by the UK ISPs, he had to move to a new server which wasn't compatible with Wookie. So, no-one came out as a winner. All of the people involved in these operations spend a huge amount of time keeping them going and one step ahead, but get very precious if you dare criticise them!

Rudolf's Mate Posted October 6, 2015 Share Posted October 6, 2015 thats the add ons installed. tried genisis, worked great. watching the new Jurassic park movie. thanks again rudolf Welcome mate. Markus me and Jack have researched these boxes to absolute death. I opted for Fire TV and Stick and the only thing which was meant to come close was the T8. Jack has all of them and says Fire wins. Personally I wouldn't buy anything else as they ultimately end up having cheap processors or knocked off parts which ultimately cause issues.

jack D and coke Posted October 6, 2015 Share Posted October 6, 2015 Everybody I know who has an M8 complains about it mate. Fire Tv box is the best imo and I believe the new 4K one is even better. Supposedly lightening quick. T8 is decent though but Fire wins by a nose, just works a bit quicker. There is a new T8 out too though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dagger Is Back Posted October 6, 2015 Share Posted October 6, 2015 I just installed dexter TV on kodi, looks excellent. BT Sports in HD & Sky sports coming soon, as well as other sports channels. https://seo-michael.co.uk/tutorial-how-to-install-dexter-tv-for-kodi/ Just installed Dexter but no sports channels. Maybe some work being done on the add on? Anyone able to shed any light? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got Kodi loaded on PC What are you loading it on bud? When you turn on your box, just search for Mobdro through the browser at the homepage. On the website, download the Mobdro apk. If that's what your doing then I don't know what's wrong with it bud, and if that was obvious to you, then apologies as I wasn't trying to be a smart ass.

mrmarkus1981 Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 I'm running a pi, droidbox and fire stick. All work, droidbox finds and plays genesis streams quickest.

Pi is fine if your patient, mine is used for media i already have and sports mania as it's easy to add as part of my home network with 2tb hdd attached.

AlimOzturk Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 So basically bought the fire stick, sideloaded Kodi and have experimented with a few different builds. Have tried Spinz, daddy chu and couple other less known ones. However have to say i have incredibly impressed with The Beast. If has great functuality and everything you could need or want and auto updates as well. So if any apps become defunct it will find a replacement. My only one complaint would be the firestick might not be porwerful enough to support it as it crashes every now and then while loading an repo or programme. So i might upgrade to something better in the future. Anyone who gets this will never pay for TV again Imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're using the power supply then take it back to where you got it as it 100% shouldn't be doing that and must have a fault.
