Hi Everyone, anyone having issues with the stream quality? Looks like every stream can get is SD. But if I stream from browser it is HD. I am currently subscribe as premium.

Thanks and hope everyone is staying safe/healthy

Hi,
Yes, I have the same. it seems that it is TFC which purposely restricts the quality of their video streams by changing the bitrate range (by adding "&b=100-1300" to m3u8 file URL).
cf : https://learn.akamai.com/en-us/webhelp/m...74722.html

I will add a workaround in a future fix version 1.4.8.

Hi CMIK,

Thank you for working on this addon. I got the updated one, it worked now for tv shows but noticed that for some movies, it still does not stream HD. Would like to understand where/how to fix but I don't think I am capable enough to understand (nose bleed)

Hi @kingsess,
Yes, it does. I’m using it on Kodi 18 raspberry, firestick, Android/Windows systems for several months now. No problem.

If you have some examples, I can check on my side.

@cmik - can you find a similar tutorial on a site that isn't full of piracy banned addons (wiki) please?

The original linked site strongly pushes them, in violation of our piracy policy (wiki) so we do not allow links there to be posted.

Editted to add - this seems to be much the same information, but on a more acceptable site:

Hi @cmik,

It seems that the live shows are not working. I'm using Kodi 18.6 and TFC ver 1.4.8.

Any help is very much appreciated. TIA

Hi @angelb77 
There is a workaround :
go to TFC.tv add-on settings / Advanced
set "Force best stream" to OFF
set "Use streaming proxy" to OFF

But this will only work for live shows. You'll have to enable these again for other shows.
I'll try to make a fix in a future version.

Enjoy!
