^^selects the best, some virtually instant play, some you can see it going through the scrappers and then it plays the best. Depends who it's getting it's data from, Phoenix is instant and always the best quality it can find, SALTS it uses about 30 or so sources goes through them, then plays the best.

Interesting, thanks. Might consider it then. I use my box with my own media collection on my NAS drive as well, so might be nice to see that netflix-style

The strange thing is that Kodiflix was missing links that I normally use, I then installed Blackbox and the links were there. Also the Velocity addon is superb as well

I've got Kodiflix installed on one device but still waiting for the code to come through, the two codes I've seen mentioned don't work......
It looks good on the reviews, more user friendly than say The Beast. A good add on is Ares Wizard, installs add ons without the need to faff with url's/install from zip etc. It seems a waste though not as good as people make out. |

It runs great on the shield, but it does lack the feature to add you own sections, you have to use a sub menu.

The idea in principle is great, however it lags badly on the Firestick as it just isn't powerful enough to cope, so have done a freshstart and installed Black Box which runs really smoothly on my Fire Stick.

I put kodi on my fire stick 2 days ago total newbie here. However I'm worried about not having a vpn and don't really wanna pay either if I could get a free vpn. I cancelled netflix to save money. But not prepared to leave my identity online for hackers using kodi. Anyone else not using a vpn or not.

I don't, I use a DNS for Netflix, but my Kodi runs from the Shield, so I can't change DNS etc, and no problems. You'll be fine as long as you use reliable sources such as Phoenix, Uk Turks etc.

Yes I have used phoenix and that's it really, don't know why the cpu is constantly maxing out on the firetv stick. Tried clearing the cache and a few other things.

Just done a fresh strart with Kodi. Currently only added one add on which is Phoenix, cpu was at about 20 percent and turned RSS feed off. I think Kodi is a lot about trial and error of course your not always gonna get perfect streams escpecially HD. Plus i should also not the Firetv stick only has a ceratin amount of Ram so thats why i was looking at the Nvidia Shield but £120 is a bit pricey. My Internet connection is Virgin and 120 meg.

Have recently installed KODI on my laptop along with Phoenix add on, then goping into Woody.
Sports seem to work fine but just about everything else I get the message at bottom right, "unplayable stream". I have uninstalled and reinstalled but no difference. I am using the most up to date version of Phoenix 2.8. Any advice appreciated |

Maybe look at the new FIre TV box, instead of a stick for better performance. As for streams, yep that happens, it's one of the problems relying just on Kodi for all your entertainment. |

Ive just been given an Apple TV 3rd Gen as my friend now has the latest model. Obviously this would have to be jailbroken and wouldnt have a clue how to do that but i do now you can put Kodi on it also comes with ethernet port which can connect to my Router. Whilst the firetv stick is good it lacks the ram of a firetv box or apple box.
