Wow this is interesting..

Been looking for a solution for a home media setup..

So this android tv can replace:

1. Asteruk
2. Smart TV by sony/samsung
3. Micro Tower CPU PC for home browsing, movie, videos for kids
4. Laptops connected to TV/Monitor for works or leisure..can even edit documents on TV then lol..

But Most IMPORTANT we need high internet speed with no caps..

Erm how about if i only use Wimax with 2mbs and 15gb caps..how long will it last..lol

Edit:

Can also replace:

5. The Chromecast by Google..Oo
6. Any other wireless streaming apps/hardware..by Sony or Samsung..

Yeah...share share info bro.. You can watch tons of chinese/korean stuff ...all free...but I dont understand chinese, so app like PPTV is mostly useless to me...But there are other app and source. Downloaded one app...watch korean dramas...I am no fan of k drama but this one got english subtitle...so can watch if bored also...
Last night watch a lot of HBO HD movies....CloudTv free for 2 days...then subscribe monhly....not that expensive...about Rm40 can watch all the english and chinese channels....hehe. if xbmc can stream from those sources, then no need subscribe...must research more....

And yes..most important your internet no cap...I use Time Fibre broadband...8Mbps.
But I noticed the cloudtv streaming use about 300 to 400Kb/s max...usually under 300KB/s...So a 4Mbit line is the minimal requirement for smooth experience. But sometimes it buffers also (especially on HD channels). However, dont expect the hd uality like Astro or your downloaded bluray mkv. It is still better than Astro SD though...way better. For normal SD channels...just like Astro SD...but better a bit and got widescreen (16:9).

Which file did u install and got XXX channel? If your kid clever enough, thats the problem. From navi x got some xxx chanel but it not really obvious unless you search for it

Don't remember the name....got some XXX channels, not a lot.....btw, how do you access the channels? Just go to the 'Video' and scroll the channel list?

Even in Google playstore, can easily accidentally search for sexual material (maybe not XXX, but maybe naked girls photos app)...not really suitable to let kid use the Google App store on the Android TV box.

what channels do they have on cloud iptv? Any references?

huhu... thanks for the info bro!!

Damn...just found this:

https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/2920813

Looks promising???

thanks.

Yeah... Can watch latest movies yet to release, watch all major US/UK channels including ABC/CNBC/NBC/FOX/STAR/HBO/NatGeo/Discovery to name a few...
But, sometimes not so stable and need to wait for intermediate buffer during streaming live...

I just check out CloudTV and looks not bad..
Just download the apps to IPTV and start streaming? How is the process as I am not so familiar with it? thanks

unifi + apple TV

Apple tv still need to pay and subscribe right?? Netflix dont work outside US
unless go through some vpn..and I saw you have to pay for each HD movie you download on some channels...I can download HD movies for free anyway....

Yes. You can try it on your phone also...I tried on my Galaxy Mega..
Syiok for 2 days...lol.

If you already install plugin from repository file, you must click add on under video menu. You choose from there and install it in your list. For navi-x, I prefer to choose recently upload list. You can get a lot of list from there.

But, when i download from site just now, the file format is apk which is for android phone..
Where to download for pc use? or Ipad use?

There is only Android version......I didnt realized this until now.

Hello....I suppose for english and chinese is $4.99+$6.99 per mth....right?

I wonder people nowadays still prefer watch tv program from tv channel which you might have to wait or miss your program and receive bunch of rubbish advertisment in your head. Sometime you even cant watch it due to weather condition or station had been offline.

Free on demand program is all over the web, you can select whatever show you want whenever you need to watch.

Dude if you can find GOOD free on demand HD channels like
FOX HD, HBO HD etc, please let us know how and where....so far..all
the free stuff are mostly rubbish or with very poor quality video.
Even PPTV...the quality is horrible...

When you watch TV. Sometimes you just want to channel surf and see
what is on without thinking too much. If I want to watch blockbuster hollywood movies or tv serials, I will just download those bluray or 720p video recording...which no streaming can even match the quality and sound.

btw, tinker with xbmc last night. ..still not impressed. ..mostly rubbish channels or stuff which wont work except a few....the cloudtv experience is still way better.
