I've been messing around with Kodi on my PC for the last month or so. What's the go to add on for motorsports? They don't need to be live. But at least 1080 and posted within a day or two would be nice.

Specifically looking for F1 and DTM racing.

Addons are going to go down sometimes, you just have to wait for the developer to update them. Sometimes an addon will be live for a week, goes down permanantly, and you have to uninstall. Then those same devs make a new addon, constantly making new ones. Perhaps not their intention to keep them up very long in the first place.

The Fusion/TvAddons crew addons are always the most reliable/ rarely go down. The main ones anyway...

European racing, I would probably end up going to Zem sports the day of the races, and find Sky's or BTsports, others. 1080p is unlikely, but possibly 720's, with your most reliables being SD. Same goes for Sportsdevil/Phoenix..

Love Kodi, been using it for over a year now. Have a couple Fire TV boxes set up with Kodi at my partents house after they cancelled their Sky TV.

Got it set up on my ipad and the Wife's MAC as well as having a Fire TV in the bedroom for movie night after a few smokes with the Mrs.

Bear with me here. I'm not very tech savvy. I have Hoxx VPN Proxy downloaded as an Add On in Firefox. Is this enough to block my IP address when using Kodi, or do I need to download some kind of add on to Kodi itself?

Well no one responded to my last post but will try again. I am gonna get an improved internet connect at 100 mbsp down or so they told me. With that, I will either get a Dragon box or a Amazon box, jailbroken. Wondering which would be better with the Dragon box costing $350 and the Amazon $150.

I guess at 3 mbsp down which is my current dsl rate, I can not do any boxes.

Or you could just install kodi on your PC for free?

Do not buy a fullyloaded/jailbroken box of any kind, they are nothing but trouble, not to mention a complete ripoff. Only buy a fresh raw box that's new. Those jailbroken box sellers are causing all sorts of problems for the Kodi community, getting unwanted attention from the piracy hawks. Plus, it's almost certain, the addons that come with the box will be outdated, and include junk/ads to slow it down.

Putting Kodi and the addons on yourself is very easy. It's a matter of downloading Kodi, and typing a url into the file manager. then enabling it, that's it. Don't waste your money.

If you have the money buy a Nvidia Shield TV console($199), a new one. Nothing out right now is on it's level in all catagories. For under a $100, get a new Amazon Fire box or stick(box is faster). When it comes watch this https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=tp4wfO5JPQw

For the Shield TV, Kodi is already in the Google play store. Once installed, install Fusion/Tvaddons Indigo tool, which includes the addon installer..https://seo-michael.co.uk/how-to-install-indigo-on-kodi-krypton/

You don't really need a vpn, but if you want one fine. Try to have at least 15 mbps, I have 60, works perfect.

After that, bookmark this site on your browser for instructions on how to install the latest new addons. Updated daily...https://tutorial-iptv-xbmc.blogspot.com/

Good luck bro

...and on fight nights, try to collect as many BTsports 2 links as you can, and put them in your favorites. These can be found in Zem, Sportdevil, Phoenix, many others...:tiphat:

Any good add ons for foreign tv shows? I'm trying to watch "Kathmandu" but no streams are available on Exodus.

Meraxes- Forget if I already mentioned it but The Revenant took place 1823. I just re-watched it myself. I love the meteor scene.

Yeah I had a hard time getting that setting together. 1826, that's after the war of 1812, was the setting in Canada maybe? Lots of Frenchmen...

I believe it took place in Montana and South Dakota, although it was mostly filmed in Alberta, Canada. Hugh Glass worked for the Rocky Mountain Fur Company which was founded in St Louis, Missouri. The French and British were also very involved in the fur trade in North America.

Check out the Revenant book, it's a little different. I also just ordered a book on Jim Bridger.

+1 for shield. That little bastard rocks.

Sorry but i dont feel like reading 68 pages.....doesnt anyone here use sonarr/CP/usenet/indexers/plex/emby? (i did at least search sonarr in the thread with zero results :) )

Just curious... i dont watch sports so i dont need the live channels but as far as shows/movies goes... the automation just f-in rocks.

Seems to be a lot of this kind of stuff lately. You got the Frontier show with Jason Momoa, about the Hudson Bay Company, Taboo has the East India. Some ruthless folks in how they handled their business back then.:)

You may want to try SALTS for that Kathmandu Squall..:tiphat:
