Wayne Cubed Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 anyone know anything about Plex? Saw something yesterday where it is now available on Kodi....when i read it it almost seemed it was kind of like a Kodi-Like program, sitting inside of Kodi. Plex can work a lot like Kodi, as in you can install "channels" that function like Kodi addons and a lot of the Kodi addons are available. It also has it's own "Covenants" and live channels.

/dev/null Posted September 6, 2017 Author Share Posted September 6, 2017 There's a free version and a pay version. I'm running the free version on my server. Last time i played with Plex the server was free to install and windows/Linux clients were free, but Android apps required a purchase or Plexpass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PromoTheRobot Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 you're doing it wrong. lol 1) download the mobdro app and install. 2) something called mobdro flower runs a never ending string of spam ads. 3) this awesome app people talk about is nowhere to be found. So what did I do wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

section122 Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 I found a video with instructions to add other things besides Kodi (updated my kodi with a new interface though which took some getting used to). One was mobdro and it was incredibly easy. The others were ip tv. I was able to watch the game last night on a direct NFL network feed. The youtube video is about 20 minutes and incredibly easy if you are worried about that. PM if you are interested in the video. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I appreciate it. If I have successfully loaded Mobdro, where do I find the Bills game? When I turned on CBS about half an hour ago it was showing the local Buffalo pregame. At 10 it turned to the CBS national broadcast, so I'm not sure what will happen at 11. Hoping it stays with local Buffalo feed. Sorry...I'm talking in my local time. 12/1 east coast.

Torrent will get your ISPs attention because your download becomes part of the upload pool and are thus hosting content. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

itsmejerry04 Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 (edited) Kodi is simply a media player and it does not have any content of its own. We need to source the content either from the local storage or the internet. If you want to stream movies and shows, you will need add-ons. An add-on is a bridge between Kodi on your Firestick and the huge pool of content on the internet. Edited January 14, 2019 by itsmejerry04 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsFan4 Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 My fire stick stopped working. Ive tried adding on new programs to find movies/shows/sports etc. but no luck. It always says that it’s “unable to find any streams”. Anyone have any ideas? I read that it could be my ISP blocking me from using it? and that I need a VPN if that’s the case. Also, I haven’t updated Kodi since I got it. It’s still running Jarvis 16.1. I don’t know if that has anything to do with it? I never updated to Krypton because I read people were getting cease and desist letters in the mail after updating. Don’t know if that’s true or not but I decided not to update just in case. It worked fine for a long time running Jarvis (after Krypton came out), so I’m not really sure that’s the problem... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be a number of things Your ISP is unlikely to block you specifically from using it. They may however be blocking some of the content providers, especially any outside the US Most likely your add-ons are out of date. Your repositories are probably out of date as well. The version of Kodi that you are running probably won't affect playback, but will definitely affect scripting. The scripting is what the add-ons use to find streams. So while you don't necessarily have to update Kodi to Krypton to play the video back, you probably should update it to keep your add-ons up to date. Oh, and there was a massive security bug a year or so ago. So it might be time to update 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing I get out of something like that is more incentive to cut the cord. I have to wonder if they have a program that tries to specify the cost that will generate the maximum revenue.
