shaper Posted January 8, 2016 Posted January 8, 2016 So the coverage for cycling is just as good or better than DSTV....based on what you've described above?Yes, dependent on the quality of your internet connection. EmptyB 1
EmptyB Posted January 8, 2016 Posted January 8, 2016 Yes, dependent on the quality of your internet connection. Ok so bare with me here cos I'm stupid today ....its the heat. A lot of the cycling I watch on PVR because of work etc. Are there repeats if you cant watch it live?

Stretch Posted January 8, 2016 Posted January 8, 2016 HD streaming isn't readily available if you are one of those that like to see sweat droplets on the cyclists nose hairs
travisza Posted January 8, 2016 Posted January 8, 2016 (edited) https://seo-michael.co.uk/how-to-manually-install-sportsdevil-on-xbmc/ Google is your friend by the way Yip - that was super lazy of me.

shaper Posted January 8, 2016 Posted January 8, 2016 (edited) Yip - that was super lazy of me. My bad But basically you run the Kodi program together with the SportsDevil addon? Gonna give that a try.Yes that is correct, Kodi is my media streaming software and the SportsDevil addon is used to get the streaming feeds. There are plenty plenty addons that are installed the same way as sportsdevil to get all different content, movies, tv, series, etc.... some work good, some work for a while then get closed down, new ones take the place of the ones that do get closed down Edited January 8, 2016 by shaper
Mr Winter Posted January 8, 2016 Posted January 8, 2016 I hope they do not go the way of sky in the UK, as the sports package addon to the standard package was expensive... and there are many who did not take it .. so still ended up going down the pub to watch sport. With sky you hadBasic packagepaid extra for the sports packagepaid extra for the movie package You could not just take the sports package and nothing else, you had to have the basic package first then add to it... and pay for the additional packagesLets hope they don't go that way
Stretch Posted January 8, 2016 Posted January 8, 2016 so who has got sports streaming working on the roku? I watch ITV through Filmon TV but that requires me connecting my Laptop to my TV or watching on the desktop which is not ideal. I did a brief search for a browser app recently...maybe i need to revisit that
Joe De Beer Posted January 8, 2016 Posted January 8, 2016 Also register on the website www.filmon.com and keep your login details. With the xfinity wizard it will load "Expat TV" and the fusion wizard should load "FTV". When you run the addons they will ask for your filmon login details. Input the info and you will get all the UK free to air channels. ITV4 often covers the cycling too Can do a trial run with the Giro before you decide whether is good enough for the TdF and ditch DSTV Once you get familiar and start playing around with kodi, you can load "FTV Guide" which will give you an electronic program guide of some 300 odd channels from uk, USA and elsewhere. A lot of the free to air channels will already be linked to the EPG, other channels you have to learn how to find them and then link to the Chanel in the EPG Also read on the kodi website with regard to recommended addons and what they do... Can get movies, series ... You name it Does the FTV add-on install from the raspberry Pi or should I put the SD card in a notebook and load there?
RocknRolla Posted January 8, 2016 Posted January 8, 2016 I am underwhelmed by the selection on netflix. Perhaps I dont fall in the 90 percentile when it comes to series/movies. The ease of use/ quality however is great. carbon29er 1
shaper Posted January 8, 2016 Posted January 8, 2016 Does the FTV add-on install from the raspberry Pi or should I put the SD card in a notebook and load there?All addon's will install via the Pi Install the fusion installer and xunitytalk installer... this will install most of the popular addons automatically Which version of kodi are you using on the Pi? Openelec?
Stretch Posted January 8, 2016 Posted January 8, 2016 I am underwhelmed by the selection on netflix.Perhaps I dont fall in the 90 percentile when it comes to series/movies. The ease of use/ quality however is great. not everything is available on the browse function...sometimes you need to search
HeyYou Posted January 8, 2016 Posted January 8, 2016 (edited) as for netflix..i am just gonna carry on using the UK version cos I still watch BBC through the iplayer and sky news ...so I am going to keep my current netflix subscription. Same price anyway. just an extra $4 for getflix I logged onto Netflix UK last night without a proxy, just streamed!!! Was I lucky? Edited January 8, 2016 by HeyYou
