Fire TV+XBMC = Win

[GentlemanJack]

I have a smart TV already!!! all i need is espn and NFL !! and i m good. my cable bill is about 188..

YUP. If the NFL had a stand alone app for smart tvs I'd be totally off cable.

If you have a chromecast you might want to look into showbox. To cast the showbox content which is very extensive you will need one of these apps, bubble upnp, allcast, avia, or local cast. Each of them work good . With bubble upnp you can also cast xbmc. To do so you'll need to download xbmc Gotham 13 media center on your PC and use bubble upnp as a remote and cast. But trust me if you haven't already heard of showbox you will be thanking me later. For movies and TV shows it's ridiculous

Dude, hold on buying a Fire TV or GBox because I get the feeling they are very close to making xbmc work with Plex on PC. Just announced that they found away to do it with Android phones so it's a matter of time. In the meantime, enjoy itin your PC or Tab that's what I'm doing my Microsoft Surface Tab is a Mobile Movie Theater & Blockbuster

Werd? I dnt have cable, I have Netflix, Hulu Plus and my old lady finds pretty much anything we missing on the tablet and shit. Im jus missing my sports...and Im not paying a cable bill for espn.

 

[tampabay904]

i need to move the router closer i guess. the content is awesome, mind blowing, 1channel, freecable etc you will never be without something to watch. my playback is horrible with it.

my netflix and amazon prime playblack flawlessly

 

[PeerlessMack]

tampabay,

Are you wired or wireless? I always suggest wired. Also, what is your broadband speed? It is recommended to have download speeds of at least 4 mb/s. Check your video playback settings. Finally, some streaming links are just shitty. Try different ones.

 

[sturmars]

yo how to I fix FREE CABLE on XBMC? I keep getting script errors it barely plays any of the channels

 

[FUCKYOU]

what channel is the mayweather fight on sportsdevil via xbmc

How do you setup the VPN so that way your internet provider doesnt see that I am streaming movies every day?

G-box Midnight MX2 is all you need. I use mashup to get live tv. You get HBO, Showtime, Cinemax, NFL network, Espn, and Nba network all for free. You can even watch live boxing pay per views in HD. All you need is broadband.

eBay?

 

[boknows]

They just got them in Stock on amazon on Friday. It's the newest by the maker of the mx2.

 

[boknows]

You might have to do eBay. Just checked Amazon and it looks like they are sold out again.

Will let the fam know my thoughts once it comes in.

Is this set up still possible with a new fire tv? Just won one i heard amazon been locking the new ones down though.

 

[King Mob]

I wonder if all this goodness is going to work on the Fire stick?

 

[prospect]

@Mob, supposedly it is. I wanted to give a shot but they're all sold out in my area due to the Black Friday deals of $24.99

I started working on a guide for a couple of friends and for this forum but I got side tracked with work, school, and other real life shit. However, during the holiday break I had some time to finish it. I came across this outstanding source. I initially started pilfering shit from it to add to mine before I realize that the dude had everything covered. He does a great job covering the basics to advance. Hell I didn't even have Pseudo TV setup but now I do courtesy of this mofo.

Enjoy!

what are you attempting to do that requires root access?

I've been using Genesis. Also despite the quirky interface...navi-x is good at finding movies recently released. Plus the HD links seem to work well.
