Jambo Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 On 3/3/2019 at 1:06 AM, Sangsom said: Most of my stuff has stopped working on my minix now, even showbox is getting less reliable. Can anyone suggest any current apps for films and sports that work well? Thanks I find I have to take my Minix box every 2 or 3 months to the shop I indicated at Tukcom to be upgraded. They only charge a hundred baht and I usually tip another 100. Here is my current opening screen. I use CyberFlix for all the TV series that I watch. One aspect you do not often get is the option for sub titles. I found that very useful when watching the Italian crime series Gomorrah. Series 4 is excellent. Live Net TV is good for live TV sport with all the SKY TV sports, English footy, Golf, Cricket, F1 etc etc. Mobdro generally works OK. Kodi is a waste of space with the exception of Exodus which still works OK for TV series. I continue to subscibe to HDPrime at 400 baht a month for all TV Channels. Still sometimes stutters but the HD quality is generally good for English footy and all other sport. Watching the F1 yesterday hoping something might happen to keep me awake like a wheel falling off after a tyre change. 😀 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course you can get a slightly cheaper deal if you pay 1 year at a time. HDPrime works really well in the UK although SKY seem to send a signal down the line on the hour which sometimes disrupts a channel, I then have to change to another server. My Virgin WiFi is very adequate for excellent reception. I am loathe to pay for a years subscription as, knowing my luck, HDPrime would fold the day after I have paid.

I use mobdro for sport which is ok ish but not always reliable.

I'm usually OK with Mobdro but performance is too patchy (for me) to rely on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sangsom Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 (edited) There is a subscription app called ultimatemania and sportmania which you pay a small subscription for (in bitcoin) which is excellent, near perfect quality. Unfortunately I had an issue with it and had to reinstall it which I couldn’t fathom out. Damn shame that was a bloody good app with just about every sports channel you can imagine available including all the PPV boxing events.

Yesitisdakid Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 (edited) I have had a couple of these boxes not minix and they were not really great. Had a friend tell me about using bluestacks android emulator. It is a windows program that allows the download of Android apps to your PC. It is fantastic does everything i want 1000s of TV Channels and all the movie channels one could want. No longer the need for a box any more HDMI from my PC to my 55in TV and alls good without the cost of a minix box . I get all those as well Jambo but with out the cost of a box Edited June 26, 2019 by Yesitisdakid 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barsie Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 Any suggestions for Tukcom place to get a fire stick loaded with some tv options? sport isn’t priority- just a decent choice of working options really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rompho Ray Posted December 28, 2019 Share Posted December 28, 2019 Just scanned this thread and see no mention of this: I have a Minix Neo-U9. The last OTA update I was able to do was something like 2 years ago. It kept telling me that my device was up to date. Meanwhile, apps were not working well and I was getting frustrated. Today I logged on to the Minix forum and discovered that there was an update that requires a ROM flash to install. The directions are a little confusing, but I got the box updated. Unfortunately, it flushed everything out of the box including the apps I had installed, so if you plan to do this you might want to make a list of what you have installed. I'm just now recovering the device to the point where I can use it again. I'll let you know if I run into anything, bad or good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thegrogmonster Posted December 28, 2019 Share Posted December 28, 2019 For some reason me and the minix box never got on well. While many swear by them I found mine cumbersome to use.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misteregg Posted December 29, 2019 Share Posted December 29, 2019 TrueID box is really good. I am using three in the bar now. Just pay once for the Premier League package , about 2,500, and watch all the matches this season. Current price is 1,200 for the rest of the season. You can also see all the other True sports Chanel’s if you have a True phone contract. Had it a week and not buffered once. It has a built in Chromecast which means I can cast Fox Channel sand Bein from respective apps, all a lot cheaper than getting a iptv or android box and it’s legal.

Scotty Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 I’ve just started using airtvworld for live tv on my android box. It is excellent compared with others I have used but not cheap, about 170 Euros per year of 28 per month. You do need quite a high spec box for it to run on, I guess anything above 2000 baht is probably fast enough 😁 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
