    Default FireStick Users --

    Just wanting to let those who may be interested know that the H96 Pro Plus box is "da tits".

    Blazing fast with an octa-core processor and 3 gigs of RAM and is 4K compatible. I've also got it hardwired via LAN and it blows the damned FireStick outta the water in EVERY aspect.

    Damn good purchase. It's basically like having a PC (and/or phone) plugged into your TV. If you purchase a "deluxe package" from many of the sellers, you'll get a little, mini keyboard that goes with it. I highly recommend the keyboard; however, of course, apps will work on a phone.

    And Uncle Spiney, go suck a fat dick.

    Do you still have to run the Kodi program? Is it 1 tv per box or can you run multiple tv's off one box?

    I am running Kodi. There are some others you can put on there, though. Since this has an Android OS, you have several options.

    One box per TV. It runs HDMI out.

    i just got it within last couple weeks after hearing folks talk about it, dealing with same issue. seems like providers are starting to crack down more on the content. has it always been such a game of whack a mole trying to find add-ons that worked consistently or is this a new issue?

    At least now, when stuff doesn't work, the box flips through the whole process very quickly, where you wait forever with the FireStick.

    I'm seriously thinking about subscribing to a VPN service to see if that works. May pay for 1mo and if it is successful, then buy a year.

    The VPN does nothing other than hide your true IP, in essence making it appear as if you are located elsewhere.

    I think you may be referring to a 'real debrid' account or the like which gives you access to more hosts & unrestricted speeds, etc.

    Thanks. I thought by masking, it may help with content streams and more availability since the IP would be masked.

    Maybe I'll skip it and just play around with the box some more.

    FWIW, the little keyboard I got with it is awesome! Beats the traditional remote or using a phone app.

    This guy is awesome, highly recommend setting a alert on his page. So when the new stuff comes out your first on it. I watched both college games last night with no problem. most def find you a VPN to protect your identity(there's several that are free and work). alot of ppl got busted using firestick to watch mayweather macgregor fight.

    Why worry about hiding your IP?

    What feed were you using to watch the college games?

    The sports feeds I've tried were marginal at best.

    I've heard good things about the SuperKodi build. Google will show you how.
