QUOTE(GuyM @ Apr 12 2017, 08:06 AM) My bad. That was supposed to be completed awhile back. Anyway, simplicity is all the rage now and using builds is ill-advised, especially as fewer addons are needed and things break or expire easily.. As for skins, can install from the official Kodi repo. Setup as per your preference. |

QUOTE(NyOx @ Apr 12 2017, 11:33 AM) Some you need to paired or else you won't able to watch. like Openload.But if you doesn't want to pair with any web site. the best is to uncheck the provider that popping up those pairing window. This post has been edited by OCMAX: Apr 12 2017, 12:24 PM |

Hi peeps
I'm using Kodi 17.1 PC Windows 10, Unifi 30mbps. Currently I'm running Exodus and fortunately all tv shows and movies sources run perfectly fine at 1080p 2.0 stereo. No buffering or very limited buffering. However, if I use Sanctuary (Pandora's Box) - 1080p movies sources with 5.1 surround sound via audio passthrough, will only be good for the first 3 to 5 mins with good surround sound, then it buffers and stops and pauses all the way...which has been very frustrating. Have tried some reducing buffer recommendation settings via Areas Wizard but the buffer is still there for all HD 5.1 sources. Haven't tried those paid Real Debrid sources coz wanna keep it at minimal cost for now,a nd rectify this issue first. Any remedy for this issue guys? Appreciate any feedback. Thx ps: On the same PC, for Netflix app (downloaded from Win 10 appstore), all HD 5.1 movies run fine so far. |

QUOTE(silbii @ Apr 12 2017, 05:08 PM) Hi peeps In my findings, Netflix requires about 5Mbps to stream 1080p 5.1 content.. Like YouTube, they boast highly capable servers across the world including in Malaysia, used to serve content.. Hence, much easier streaming.. Good to test your connection and media capabilities, but not for 1 - 1 comparisons with lesser/illegal hosts; they aren't powerful enough and if too much load, tend to cause issues to receivers.. Your case does read like server issues.. Try a paid VPN and if still no improvement.. It's possibly source related and can't do much besides finding another source.I'm using Kodi 17.1 PC Windows 10, Unifi 30mbps.

QUOTE(voncrane @ Apr 11 2017, 03:57 PM) Did use the free mode ... Then they came up with the premium model and started throttling/kicking folks out.. Waited awhile to see if it's just a fad.. Looks like it's not.. Pulled the trigger recently on premium and not regretting it at all.. Smooth almost instant playback and switching.. Mostly 720p and 1080p.. Zero buffering.. About 80% of the channel icons are present (makes it prettier So you're recommending burst ? |

QUOTE(chokia @ Apr 13 2017, 05:04 AM) Quasar Burst. I skipped to install the second time due to it hogged my kodi the 1st time i installed when it prompted. My Quasar now is burst free. And how are you using Quasar without the accompanying burst addon? Cuz that is needed to query providers.No such issue on my device running either Jarvis or Krypton.
