Bro what are the configs of your PC and what's your internet speed? I'm using my list and many other IPTVs Addons on 3 different devices and even streaming 720p/1080p channels and have almost never experienced buffering. One of the device i used for streaming was RPI 2 which only got 1gb RAM and still runs everything smoothly.

Here's the link for RPI 2 and i think this is the best deal on Lelong

I don't think you need to buy the WiFi dongle unless you not interested n LAN, which is more recommended cuz of speed and BTW don't forget to buy original power adapter, do not use others.... Power is important for good performance.

For remote I would recommend RII RT-MWK25

or if you want a bit cheaper then you can buy Mele F10 Pro

I have personally tested Mele F10 Pro but i have read reviews of Rii and i think Rii is better and i will be buying a Rii this week for a friend of mine for whom i'm building another media player this week smile.gif

So take your picks bro and Enjoy smile.gif

I don't know what's the problem but I don't think it's line speed.

I can watch the same channels (e.g Discovery Channel,  I.D Investigation Discovery) from IPTV Stalker without any buffering. The player shows 720P.

But when I watch the same two channels from your listing , they buffer every 2-5 seconds. The player shows SD.

I am thinking it's got to do with the sources where the stream are from. When I have the time, I will explore more channels to see if it's only some sources that's giving this problem.

Yup IPTV stalker more stable..my internet speed 4mbps...HD on IPTV stalker not true HD even player show HD

what is ur internet speed...

ok i have another question... i have a astro beyond subscribed, can i link it to th XBMC
if yes what are the hardware i needed?

You need to have a card which can take video feed, though i think with Astro it's difficult to get the direct feed, cuz Astro channels depending on decoder and smart card... so a normal TV tuner card may not work for Astro feed.

I'm using TM Unify 30MBPS

Yup IPTV stalker more stable..my internet speed 4mbps...HD on IPTV stalker not true HD even player show HD

30mbps no wonder lah fast enough for streaming

Internet connectivity Download speed (approx)
256 kbps 31.3 KBps
384 kbps 46.9 KBps
512 kbps 62.5 KBps
768 kbps 93.8 KBps
1 mbps ~ 1000kbps 122.1 KBps
http://techallica.com/kilo-bytes-per-secon...d-kbps-vs-kbps/

4mbps = 488 KBps

sd video streams take 100-200 KBps
hd video streams take 300-500 KBps
hd video + hd audio takes a lot more

and that is when u r using alone, not sharing with other users.

my experience, 10 mbps is good enough for most home streaming incl 2-3 users at any time.

Sure bro do your research it's always good but as i mentioned there's hardly a Android media box brand which you can name here and i would not have tried and based on that experience i recommended that instead of wasting money on those so call good for nothing Android boxes you should spend that money to build/buy a Raspberry PI 2. Based on different prices listed on Lelong and depending on how much storage you want in the RPI 2 it can cost you max RM400... This RM 400 will buy you a RPI 2 device with a class 10 32GB sd card and a wireless remote with keyboard at the back.
I have just build one for a friend of mine and that's how much it cost. If you only gonna use it to play online contents and IPTV and you do not have any local media (huge library of locally stored movies) then you won't need even a 32GB card and a 8GB or 16GB card will do which will bring down the cost as most of the Ads listed on lelong/here do include a bundle 8gb sd card and so price can be minus 70/75RM from the RM400. Again if you don't want to use a fancy wireless remote and simple IR or a old keyboard can do the job you can minus another RM100 from the cost.. So as such the device is around RM200 only but i think that would be the best RM200-400 you will spend to build a good performing media box.

If you new to all this i can help you build one and setup with all the cool Add-ons for movies and LiveTVs.

True that...now on 10mbps unifi...2 kodi streaming, 2 on youtube and few surfing. still good....but the new 30mbps is tempting. now i am paying rm169 but 30mbps is rm210? dont think i would mind the 5mbps upload though.

After reading your post, quite interested in getting this.
So, can you help to build  one and setup as mentioned? How much would it cost in total?

I bought those 2.4GH Wireless remotes, i think they are much better to use than this kind.. you can easily program keys to your liking and backside full keyboard also comes very handy.
You can look for RII or Mele few links for your
