Subscribe Netflix & Hulu. these two combination are good enough.

Unless you can install RSS media reader/player.

I don't think the stock apps able to do that. You need a android TV box or you used your browser to watch the dramas & movies here. http://fastdrama.co/ with a mouse.

LG's WebOS is a proprietary OS and Kodi or Android apps are unsupported.. Get an external device and hook it up.. Visit the garage sales section for such hardware and software.

If it's LG/WebOS, don't bother. Either pay a premium for a simple/ridiculous IPTV app on WebOS and pay for a premium IPTV m3u playlist and hope it works with the app, or just do yourself a favour and get an android box and do whatever you want.

sorry, missed this... just read...

** duplicate threads on android box, apps, kodi... can't follow sometimes...

yr box is a 1/8gb android6, i believe.

while the box specs are rather low, it should be able to work fine with small simple apps with the speed u hv.

.. mobdro should work fine.
.. dunno ywp but china apps like these are always tricky - the channels work and then they stop working, need new versions.
becos they are illegit, being monitored, need to keep changing, play hide-n-seek in order not to be geoblocked.
some need subscription, payment.. ahem iptv... these u need to contact sellers directly.
for the likes of these, u can try new cloudtv - many of the free channels work fine, incl HD.
.. turkish... dunno what what app this is.

i can suggest u try, for eng... terrarium tv and uktvnow.
chinese... try moli, moretv and icdrama rss player.
i don't suggest u use kodi as yr box memory and storage is too low.

read/google and u will find these apk's and how to install them.
https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/3115619/+420

u can also ask other users of the same box what their experience is:
https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/4200167/+1780
if all no good, time to find another box!

Installing Kodi on your FireStick will give you much freedom. Installing Kodi on FireStick is actually easier than you might think. You don’t have to root your device, and you can accomplish the whole process in about 5 minutes, if you’re a smart gu. Check out this step by step guide https://www.firesticktricks.com/install-kod...fire-stick.html . Also keep in mind that now, some of the apps you can access let you obtain movies, TV shows, sports, etc without paying for access. Just install and enjoy!

I know this thread is specific to kodi and tvbox. Another suggestion is for you to try google chromecast instead. You can stream and cast your favourite show from your phone to tv via chromecast. Just install apps like terrarium or showbox or heck even kodi on your phone. Cast via chromecast. Much easier.

For me it is troublesome. Everything control via TV Box is far better than still need to take out the phone and cast over.

I guess you have installed the VPN apps in your phone to watch the Netflix, right?
Just curios, how are you going to make the VPN for the smart TV?

Netflix is quite sometimes officially in Malaysia already. VPN is not required.

Unless you are heavily into Amazon services and you've seen what else it can do and satisfied, I wouldn't recommend a stick anything. Too much hassle to get it to do other stuff and they're hardware limiting too.
