OK. Terrarium is under my App section and it launches. When I select say a certain episode of Breaking Bad or Mr. Robot. I slelect it. Say - First season and episode 7. I click on it and it just sits there? Does it take a while to load? No messages like loading???

Any ideas on how to chang the player without going through all the install steps?
mine loads fast. After you click season then episode links should load in. To change player go to setting. while in settings check the box for resolve all links immediately. also hide reCaptcha verification.

I have kodi 17 on a box but i find it works horribly. Using exodus. Is there something better to use or a source I can get that will make it work more reliably. I love watching tv without commercials.
Install the Placenta addon, that's the best one at this moment that I have found.

As said in another thread, as I find better and improved addons I will post them here as Exodus is finished, Neptune Rising is struggling and so is Uranus.

Also, splash out literally a few bucks on a Real Debrid subscription and the quantity and quality of sources will increase substantially.

Oh, I use Kodi over Terrarium on my TV because it's hooked up to a miniPC and not an Android box. Have both on my tablet, but if doing any Android box please make sure it has a MINIMUM of 2Gb system ram to help prevent slowdowns, buffering, etc. And obviously a decent internet connection is a must.

Not only that, but you're talking Netflix USA. I can assure you that Netflix is not the same in every land it operates, with the selection in Belgium being pretty pish compared to the US or UK which is why I dumped Netflix when they started blocking VPN's because I wasn't paying THAT much for so little.

@Mr Blamo Why do I get the urge to ask you why SportsDevil won't update from your repo when I don't even know if you are the same Mr Blamo behind the Blamo Kodi repo?

I don't use Kodi for sports I use my iptv for sports as it has 141 ch for sports that are live.
Not to mention I watch every big ufc and boxing matches that is included with the sub for iptv.

Have you tried this one for updating sports devil?

I have the placenta add on and i got real debrid. I still find it slow but the quality is better. Is there something else I should do to kodi to make it work better?

Maybe one of those other repos or something?

You can try the repos I posted to see.
Sometimes kodi addons are slow and sometimes there not.
Also it depends on how fast internet is and also the specs of the box a person uses.

The android box i will check out. I might need one with more flash mem
Android box, can be difficult to add system rom but SOME can allow you to use an SD card for system. If you have a 1Gb system rom box, then there's not much that can change that unless you can hack it out and change the configuration. Using "wired" or "wifi" can make a huge difference, "wired" obviously being better.

You need an Android box with at least 2Gb system rom and, ideally, a wired connection which is why I went the miniPC route, now on Linux instead of Winblows, as even though the cost was higher I knew what the benefits would be thanks to the 1Tb hard disk would be.

So the first thing I think of, since I don't know what you have, is to avoid 4k, 1080p and even 720p streams and select "SD", "Standard definition", streams instead of anything classed as "HD", "High Definition", as the amount of data the box has to handle at any time is easier on your system.

I do 1080 and below on a firestick from some Kodi sources depending on variables like time, day etc. More 720's and HD tagged then 1080 though.

The buffering sheet is on the server side. Ex: If 29k people are streaming from the same ('free'/'capped') server/source the bandwidth is gonna bottleneck on the server side and lag on your side.

I use iptv boxes for kodi and terrarium apk. One called global media box the other buzztv xpl3000.
I use those because I do iptv in my house.

If you want to use a android box and want to get a new one I think the best support box would be NVIDIA® SHIELD™ TV box.
Wasn't long ago those boxes updated to the new android that out.
Great for kodi and anything else you would use.
There a little expensive but...you get what you pay for.

When it comes to streaming devices, I have both a FireTV and Fire Stick. They both work effectively across the house from my router. The box is a little bit faster and more responsive, but the FireStick with Kodi on it still works great for my purposes. I have been researching for the alternative to Terrarium as it has gone :( Found some info about Showbox for Firestick . They say it's the best alternative. Anybody tested it out?
Terrarium is still working.

Should say iptv is where its at for live tv. 10 bux a month is way cheaper than what cable/satellite companies want.
Just have to have a good high speed internet.
Have to know how to clean the box.
Also have to reboot your modem every couple day for 10 minutes as modem and routers do get clogged up.
You can add any apk file to most boxes to like that cyber flix app.
I use kodi and also tv/movie apk files. Usually when I miss a show or want to watch a movie I cant find on iptv section of vod.
