i had tried acestreams with arenavision (?).

ok sometimes, not so sometimes.

maybe i need to try again with MiC.

still looking for a reliable free HD live sports! biggrin.gif

up to now, i find live lounge and redbox most reliable but they buffer sometimes.

Arenavision? Where to get it now? Thought it's dead
*
i tried it some time ago, dunno now.

that's the trouble with these addons or apps.

adrian, cypher, arena... so many...start, stop... come and go...

the standalone apps like mobdro, uktvnow... they stay longer but are in SD.

Is Kodi for android same like for Windows? Where you need to install repository and then install add in? I feel Kodi for Windows is quite confusing.
*
diff versions for windows, androids, ios, etc.

my experience, easier to work with android version.

Thanks for the feedback.
How easy is it? Just install plugin then it'll work?
*
no...

same approach for all versions - install repos or plugins, install addons.

so, yes... kodi is not the easiest app to use... a lot of work to keep up.

read all that in kodi thread.

Haha I thought can have it easier.

You familiar with Windows version? Better to use the normal installation or UWP? v17.5 or v18?
*
Not using anymore.

Best u ask at kodi thread, many users there.

Thanks. If only Kodi simplified the way it handle add on.
*
that's the way it is built; the app is one big complex platform.
developers will do their own thing and offer them as repos-plugins-addons for anyone to try.

Isn't Jarvis old version? Now no more support for this? You still using Jarvis version?
Have to keep looking for repository and add on, that's the troublesome about Kodi. Guess free stuff can't complaint.

yes, not easy for most users.
which is why some people incl me after some years tend to go for simple, faster, low maint standalone apps.
there is no perfect app for good n free stuff.
usually ending up using a mix of them.
