I don't watch many live feeds, and also very few current flicks. I wonder if the server deals have trouble with higher traffic? I don't know how any of this crap works. I know our ISP is archaic by most standards, and for the most part the box does well. I wonder if it has to do with what we watch.

Maybe back to the individual servers or lack of server size

I like my firestick and SIQ. Better then a magic box. Been using the app for two years with no problems. Shit load of old shows. Every cable channel for live TV, including Canadian and British. Pretty much every first run movie while still in theaters.

The firestick is also just a one time purchase correct? One per TV I assume

Yes, but some pirate apps charge small fees. But I get UFC pay per views on SIQ for free with my small subscription fee . Stremio is also a good one and so is TV Bro.

What’s the deal with the Bluetooth remote? This replaces the standard one that comes with it?

Ok ...just hooked up thru starlink ad the box isnt missing a beat. If it continues this way all of the probems point towards those assholes at VZN

Right now problems seemed solved. Will check in if it starts screwing up again

Looks like I need to order Starlink.

Well did superstream get hacked or did the ride end? Fired it up this morning and got the following message on all 3 boxes, "device prohibited"!

Some of the SuperStream boxes are not working at the moment. This is due to the worldwide data outage. I honestly have no idea when it will be fixed. I will try to keep everyone posted. Enjoy the lake/river this weekend. 😂

Make sure you program the Bluetooth feature. You’ll need to pair it.

Bluetooth remote setup

Go to the gear ⚙️ in the lower left

Click on remotes and accessories

Find the R100 and click on it

On the remote hold down the OK button then hold down the return arrow. Keep holding for 3-5 seconds until the light on the remote stop’s blinking and shows paired on the screen
Thanks I will try this!

I'll just throw this in here since it's about boxes, but not specifically this brand. Back in the day, RD used a different fella for his boxes, a guy on the boards named Dave Montana. Anyway, I bought a box, it worked well, and I've continued to stay with him and his service to this day. About 3 months ago I started noticing that all the shows were buffering all the time. I have Cox cable for internet, see 800MB+ at the computer and 175MB download at the box (wired). With that kind of speed, it shouldn't be buffering I wouldn't think. I brought this up to DM and he suggested that my ISP was throttling content. Now I didn't think they would, but with a 30-day money back offer, I decided to ante up for a NordVPN service package.

VPN slows down the service speed as it now has to go through their server, but I'm still seeing 600MB at my computer and 70MB at the box. And now, no buffering at all for the last few days, every show and movie I've watched.

Just something else to consider.

I kinda lost touch with Dave over the years.. the boxes he had were Kodi based which meant unlimited content but you picked the stream..

Are they still that way or are they like the super streams where you can’t find some of the old stuff but it just works?

The content throttling doesn’t surprise me.. at some point I think a vpn is in order for everything

Dave recently went through a bad M/C accident. Still in the hospital from what I know, but seems in good spirits.

The box he sells now is a Formuler device. I got a Z8 Pro and a Z8 from him in the last few years. Ready for a Z10 Pro Max or Z11 Pro Max now. He pre-loads them with his own app that gets access from his own IPTV service. No picking streams, it just works. Since it's an Android box, other apps and IPTV services could be added too, but I've never had the need.

Yeah it did that once a long time ago but then it just started working later on that day.
It’s been out like 2 days now.
So is elite sports. They’re not even on the App Store page anymore.

Everyone’s is out to my knowledge.
I rarely use limitless but it does have some benefits.

I’m watching the new twisters on cinema HD now.
Tried watching Horizon on Limitless, short buffering was just too much. I'll try next week.

How do you get past the Google sync to watch on cinema hd?
Just downloaded the app.

Just downloaded the app.
I’m still figuring it out.
First off, you have to click pointer mode off and on depending what you’re trying to click on.
I selected twister, then a bunch of streaming links loaded below the window. The first one I tried led to a series of gaming ads which I had to repeatedly x out of, like cascading news ads.
The second one 1080p worked.
I selected open in you tube and somehow or another it played!
I should note that you have to click back and forth from pointer mode to regular mode during the process.
It’s absolutely far more of a pain than other apps, but it does work.

Just wanted to jump on here and say that I’m trying to get in touch with the owner of the boxes. I’m hearing that limitless and a few other apps have been removed from the boxes. I think it has something to do with the cyber attack but waiting to hear the official. Luckily there are still many other options to use on the box. This same thing happened with Crypto tv when it got shut down for good.

As far as the buffering goes, the servers for Netflix are not the same as we use for the boxes I’m told. You can run Netflix with as little as 7MPBS download speed where the boxes require more for live tv like 30+ and as little as 12 for movies.

I’m doing my best to find out about the apps. I’m in the same boat no pun intended as everyone else. Unfortunately I’m not a distributor like I used to be so they don’t tell me much.

There has been a lot of talk about maybe Limitless and a couple other apps got shutdown letters like what happened with crypto tv.

Thanks Mike

So what's the next go to for movies that super VOD doesn't want you to watch ? (Red dawn, tom Clancy, Jason bourn)
Limitless wants a log in that I've never done.
Was looking to watch The sum of all fears, been a while.

Is there another sports app like Elite sports? Looks like that one got shut down as well.

still bothered by losing limitless. That was the go to for me. It has lots better selection than the default and many of the other apps just cycle and never load a chosen show.

Honestly, the performance of the box is way down without their flagship product.

I just looked. On the right side there is a restore option. Looks like a tooth pick can be inserted. Try that if the power down and up doesnt work.

I did a hard reset and loaded the apps again. Right now the three “Super” apps, Backup TV and Cyberflix TV all work.

CinemaHD doesn’t work, there’s still no limitless or sport app.

I’m guessing we can’t watch the boxing match anywhere tonight.

I've always used super TV like from the 830 to 887 channel numbers for the pay-per-views

Here are the fights I think you are looking for. I have watched UFC the last 3 weeks on it without even going into my kodi build.
Here is a screenshot from right now.

Dang, I still go through Dave and have never had an issue. Still using the bullet boxs. Im up for renewal in about 3 weeks so will probably reach out to him soon.
