Kodi buffering! - baileyboo93 - 2016-02-16

hello,



ive been trying to watch orange is the new black now, when I watch it downstairs it seems to work fine but in my room or anywhere else it keeps buffering, we even changed internet providers as we thought our internet was slow but turns out it isn't! I have cleared the cache I don't know what else I can do? is it worth unistalling the add on channel and re adding it again?

can anyone help!

Not if you are using piracy add-ons...

How do I find out if they are banned?

Think about it. If you are watching "Orange Is The New Black" which is a NETFLIX exclusive on anything other than Netflix then you are pirating.

The link is not exhaustive but lists most of the piracy add-ons and repos that are not supported here.

Then why are they putting it on there then ?

Who? None of that stuff comes from Kodi.

You should probably read through this: http://kodi.tv/the-piracy-box-sellers-and-youtube-promoters-are-killing-kodi/

I'm guessing you bought your device pre-installed with add-ons?

Add-ons that provide access to copyrighted content illegally have nothing to do with Kodi. They are made by 3rd party developers. This community does not discuss or provide support for them.

No I installed them from a link I got, I have an amazon fire stick and I downloaded the add ons like the installation video tells you.


RE: Kodi buffering! - Tinwarble - 2016-02-16

What installation video?

If you're following some youtube video then those are nether provided for or supported by Kodi.

Then please ask the person who made the video for support. As I said we don't allow the support of piracy add-ons here, sorry.

Actually, that's not necessarily true. I pay for www.playon.tv and it allows me to watch both netflix and amazon as well as a ton of other legal sources, via upnp through kodi. Just wanted to sort of post an FYI so you know there are legal ways to access those sites using kodi.

Belatedly moved to video add-ons

Which still requires you to use a Netflix log-in and still comes from Netflix. All Playon does is act as a middle man between web-based Netflix and your devices.
