I posted a guide back on page 2 of this thread. I only have Macs in my house, so it should work for you.

I've been rocking the Firestick for about a month now. I just purchased a third one because a friend said The Beast on it works fine. I've read good things about the beast here and on YouTube, but I've also saw that it's so so on the FireStick.
My take is that it's great and bad. The bad part is the way the Beast is configured for me, is that it uses Genesis. I prefer 1Channel and some of the other add-ons mentioned in this thread because you can see what streams have been clicked. You cannot do that with Genesis. Also, it does feel to me that the Beast is slower on my Firestick. However, I plan on installing it on my Beelink (from another BGOL Thread) over Thanksgiving Break.
No matter if you have the beast or not for your firestick, you have got to get iVue add-on. That's pure fire. The only thing that doesnt work well on iVue are the ESPN channels (so I've kept Sling TV for $20 per month) and NFL RedZone. I've been watching NFL Redzone on Sundays via Sports Devil.
As a MAC guy who has multiple Apple TVs and plan on buying the new apple TV once the subscription service is worked on, Amazon Firestick with the ability to install KODI/XMBC/SPMC on it pure fire. I cut the cord a couple months ago because Time Warner pissed me off. How do you treat new customers better than the ones you have. Havent missed a thing with Kodi and HD Antennae.
if u go to the BESTADDONS section of the beast u can choose 1channel, the thing bout 1 channel imo is even when it showed the times the lnks been click most of them still didn't work, there's gonna be trial and error regardless
Thanks for the tip. You're probably right on the trial and error, but at least 1Channel gives you more information to make a choice
Is there anyway I can put the xfinity app on the fire stick?
I think I'm done w/ kodi...I find myself spending more time trying to find a working link and fighting thru buffering when I coulda just dled a torrent in about 5-10 minutes and watch what I wanted...to be fair kodi is great I love the UI esp. but the add-ons have been froggy/unreliable...def hasn't helped me cut the cord and is barely suitable for me as an alternative these days...I have the game controller...fire TV and a firestick...will see if I can get anything for them on ebay...looking to get $20...$50 and $20 respectively for each item
I'm steady reaching this point myself. I'm gonna give it a little more burn till New Years or so, but if things carry on like this, i'm going the Apple TV right.
As far as the buffering issue, I solved that by using the Easy Advanced Settings program addon. Pretty stable for streams now, but like you said, finding a working link is definitely getting time consuming.

Meijer go have em for $25 on black Friday.
I am also thinking stopping Genesis development.
I can’t add anything to it anymore, they keep breaking everything because of the high traffic it sends.
It is installed by way too many people, and I can’t add anything to it anymore.
It keeps breaking all the time.
So it’s logical killing it and developing a new addon with a new addon id.
If the same happens with the new addon, do the same and the same.
We’ll see

But what do you think all these other addons are doing. SALTS does the same and so does Prime wire, 1channel.So I found out that Genesis is pretty much on its death bed.
The creator is tired of supporting and updating it because it has become way too popular. It only categorizes free links it finds on the net, but because it is so popular and all the high traffic, the hosting sites can't support the bandwidth. So good links either get hammered or banned.
The good news is SALTS, primewire and icefilms are still out there
But what do you think all these other addons are doing. SALTS does the same and so does Prime wire, 1channel.
As one dies, will be others that come along. There's already a Genesis Lazarus. Most of these addons clone another and call it theirs.
It's all good. Just for whatever you're relying on to watch stuff, just if one source is down, Google the most current of that channel or movie for what's in use at the moment or what's most reliable. But within Beast, am sure the developer will adapt to what's best at the moment regardless.
No there's no reason to "jail break" or root the box any longer, you can just side load the app like any normal Android app. People used to root them because you can boot right into Kodi and never see the FireTV interface but if you want to achieve that then just use FirestarterAs others mentioned.....
a Fire Stick is $39 bucks on AMAZON
The most your should pay for a Jail Broken one should be
about $65-$75 bucks. I seen them for sale as high as $100
If you do buy a jail broken one make sure they have the
RIGHT apps on it cause if not it's a waste and you would
need to add more to it.
Now, The Fire stick has buffering problems, I suggest you get
an android BOX instead or a Jail Broken Apple TV
I've found they have less buffering issues
I think he's confusing the term jailbreaking, which really doesn't apply here, and rooting for merely sideloading Kodi.No there's no reason to "jail break" or root the box any longer, you can just side load the app like any normal Android app. People used to root them because you can boot right into Kodi and never see the FireTV interface but if you want to achieve that then just use Firestarter
