Unless you buy an Apple tv 2 off ebay or something you can't use it because it has to be jailbroken in order to install Kodi. A co-worker just bought one ebay for less than $120 and it came with all that preoloaded. v3 is the current model in sotres now and it can't be jailbroken.

Yeah, you can store apps/games etc on a harddrive now.


The FireTV is dope, absolutely love it, gonna get the new 4k capable one when that comes out next year.

Any way to increase the buffer on a fire tv? Thats my only issue with it, sometimes id rather just pause the shyt and let it buffer up before i watch something because my internet isnt the most stable and i dont like it when the stream starts fukking up.

It also depends on the links, but that helps a lot with Genesis.


Check out Phoenix too, their movie links are A1 quality, 1080p and they don't even buffer, you can even skip with them.

is kodi compatible with chromecast?

 

[Renkz]

So its Amazon Firestick > Chromecast

 

[Golayitdown]

So its Amazon Firestick > Chromecast

FireTV box >>>> FireTV stick >>>>>>>>>> Chromecast

 

[Renkz]

FireTV box >>>> FireTV stick >>>>>>>>>> Chromecast

Explain?

 

[Golayitdown]

Explain?

(AFTV box > AFTV stick)

• Hardwired is always >>>> wireless if you have the flexibility
• The box has much more powerful hardware

(AFTV * > Chromecast)

• The flexibility of the AFTV wins out over the convenience of controlling your chromecast with your phone. I have two that I haven't even looked at since I got my FireTV box

Do the Fire TV devices support Google Cast/DLNA/Miracast?

Google Cast - looks like you gotta buy an app:Add Google Cast to your Fire TV with an $8 app
DLNA - I think Kodi supports DLNA, but I've always used NFS. If you're stuck on Windows you can set up NFS (HaneWin NFS) in a few minutes and use that with Kodi for sure.
