Best IPTV box?

Ahhh sorry thought you meant the A6 not the combo as you didn't mention the combo in your post can't post link to other website.
Just had a look at a guess I would say possibly use the mytv app for the channels you could email them to enquire mate

Sorry mate didn't realise there was two types of A6.

So is the android 7 an issue? Can I still get all the normal apps you'd expect? And can I sideload APKs for IPTV if required?

I've got filelinked on mine with all providers apps I have plex on mine havnt tried Netflix on it
 
IPTV apps

Free movie/series streaming app eg Cinema HD/CatMouse

Plex

Prime

Netflix

BBC iplayer ITV Hub etc

Vpn app

Speedtest app

I don't use Kodi so can't help there. I bought silicon remote control cases on amazon. I haven't bothered with a micro sd cardas I don't record on the box and so far there's ample space for everything I need.

Cinema HD looks interesting, how big is the selection with real debrid being used?

You do get massive amount of RD links with cinema HD and other VOD apps. These premium links are the best ones compared to the standard free links you get on such apps.

However only downside from what I have noticed like others with RD links with cinema HD and others for a while is the streams can be a bit hit and miss. I think someone said you had to change something in settings and that fixes the problem but I havent tried myself so cant say I am afraid.

All debrid is another as is premiumize which work with cinema hd and others to get you premium links. You could also try them.

You have options for VOD either with RD linked with these apps, VOD that you get with IPTV or plex. Just depends on what you want really.
 
Just going to throw my 2p in on this one as well please as in also looking to make the switch from enigma2 to android.

So I get the obvious choice is the shield but I'm wanting a device that will accept my satellite feed as well so we get the Freesat OTA channels.

I've been having a good look online and appear to now he stuck between

Amiko A6 - my questions so far are:
1. it states android 7.1, does this mean many apps will soon not run on old android? What even is the latest android version? And will it just have all available android apps, Netflix, BBC, itv, Disney, Plex etc
2. How good is the mytv app it comes with? Will this app also be the one that uses the satellite Input feed along side any IPTV portals?
3. Anyone know if it records satellite Input well? What storage does it have can it be expanded?

Formuler s mini
1. Does this even have a satellite Input? Although states satellite in the description, I can't see the input listed in the specs? And when I got to buy it tries to sell me a usb Ariel input?
2. Is the mytvonline app that comes with this the same as the amiko one above? And is this the old version of the new mytv oline2 app?
3. Does anyone know if this box records?
4. And again as above it states android 7, what does this actually mean app wise and long term?


If anyone has any other android satellite Input recommendations I'm all ears please, these appear to be the best two I can find so far.

Thanks for reading and hopefully the help...

Can anyone advise with the formuler s mini please?

It feels like it does everything the Amiko A6 combo does?

Is mytvonline that much worse than mytvonline 2? Could I upgrade it to mytvonline 2?

Is the mytv on amiko better than mytvonline?

And are they both just worth saying no forget it and get the formuler z8 pro with a dongle?

One last one, is the formuler GTV better than the z8 pro? What's the difference?
 
I just realized we might be talking about different nvidia shield, is it this nvidia shield that is a box or the other one that is cylinder shape? nvidia shield tv and nvidia shield tv pro. I was going to get the nvidia shield tv, not the pro one that is a box

I have the tube shaped version, not the pro.

If you open a credit account with very.co.uk you get a new customer code for money off it, I think I paid £135 for mine.
 
Hmmm tempted to get the pro, but it IS alot of money, £200 for box £10 for stand. Is the MYTVOnline 2 on the Formuler Z8 better than TiviMate?

Mytvonline is better than tvimate app that's for certain I have shield Pro and tbh I don't see big fuss about them just for upscaling take that away and the gaming there just like any other device.

The only difference I could see between the pro and non pro was the non pro has sd card as storage as the pro has usb, and the pro can be used as a plex server to share you're media with others.

I have a formuler z7+ too, the difference between the two is huge. Many people say the formuler z8 is not much better than the z7+.

Yeah agreed formula z8 is terrible imo, get the shield pro, specs make anything else look terrible, tivimate is also a great app, dont be fooled by these "dedicated iptv boxes" the shield will run absolutely everything, the specs don't lie and if money allows then why would you get anything other?

And important to note that not all iptv providers support the formuler devices nowadays so you could end up installing a provider hardcoded iptv app anyway, making the device an utterly pointless purchase.
