Anybody else got one, I need some help please?? I'm hoping to get rid of Virgin now to save some cash and I usually record things that are on too late such as the UFC and then I watch it the next day. Unfortunately I dont know how or if I can do this with my android box. Does anybody know any apps I can download or any websites I can go on the next day to watch it? I had no idea how good there'd be, I can now watch 100s of tv channels and live footy including selected 3pm ko's on a Sat. Also all the latest films all in HD. All this for a one off payment of 25 quid.
I've got an iPad mate, you can't do Feck all with them due to all the restrictions. Yes I think a tablet will be more or less the same, but you get to watch everything on your TV if you have an Android box.
You can with a tablet too, but a tablet can still be a tablet where as an android box can never be a tablet.
There's a few lads on here Tees mate who'll help you, I considered it last year but their jargon scared me off it sounded like pure graft.
I just plugged it in and Bob was my Uncle. They was no hassle or anything. For 25 quid they're an absolute bargain.
my advice is to get a better tablet (if you decide on that option) than a cheap one I ran XBMC on my Nexus and also on my sons cheaper tablet - my worked quite well for streaming whereas my sons regularly crashed
I don't own a tablet mate, I only have my box. I've watched Showbox and various other streams on it and its been spot on, so I haven't got a problem with crashing or anything.
I would have got a box myself mate but I couldn't justify buying one even though they're cheap, I very seldom watch TV nowadays, for me the fact I could hack or get something for free was the fun it became a hobby- years ago I used to get thousands of TV channels via satellite for years for 'free' through different boxes and cams etc it meant my family could watch all the latest movies and any foreign TV station - whilst I couldn't be arsed with it
Which box have you got marra.... ?? Just wondering as there are plenty to choose from all promising to be the best!
For some reason this reminded me of a song our old head teacher made us sing in primary school... Auld kernt.
Don't worry marra... Im as daft as you! To get round the problem of it being upside down... I turned my iPad the other way round?!! Hey presto... The picture remained upside down!! Doh Cheers for the info
Just got an android box and it's great. I phoned up virgin and told them I didn't need them anymore for my tv but I have my broadband and phones with them and it worked out cheaper for me to have a new TiVo box on a basic package than it would to do away with it altogether?? The TiVo box is just an ornament now, movies, sky sports ,concerts, catch up tv, box sets , football matches and everything else are available with the android, paid £80 from Amazon.
Yes Downgrading would be best. The only problem I have is I get BT Sport on my package now which shows the UFC. If I downgrade I think I'll lose it which means I won't be able to watch the Ufc anymore which is why I need to find another way of watching it the following day.
I've got 2 of the same boxes and love it. I don't know any specific apps for the ufc? Genesis is my favourite movie app.
