Kodi

Looking for advice as not that tech savvy.

Am I better just buying one of the pre-loaded boxes for £30-£40 off Ebay? If I do this would the box just need plugged in and away ye go?

How easy is it to find games, films, box sets etc……

I will be using this upstairs, the WIFI seems to be decent as it is fibre. So hoping there would be no buffering etc….

Anyone got one, got a link for the one they would recommend?

i was looking at this one http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2016-Quad-Core-Android-4-4-TV-Box-Fully-Loaded-XBMC-KODI-Free-Movies-NEW-as-M8S-/181958314963?hash=item2a5d8f8bd3:g:BekAAOSwARZXmy8E

If you have a PC or laptop install it on that and link to TV

I have Kodi on a PC and you connect up with a HDMI cable and buy a wireless keyboard for about 8 quid

works a treat.

Don't get one of those ebay boxes, they just don't have the spec to run it well. Just use it on a laptop or something. An Amazon box is good if you can manage to work it out. There is a website SEO Michael or something like that which has easy to follow guides.

SCB - I bought the £60 version of this as I'm not brilliant ona computer. Most of the time I can get a link to the Scottish games (and a shed load of others) This stick has 00s of providers and 0000 of films. I reckoned it was good value.

Do not put wookie on a firestick. Use a small build specifically for firesticks. I use spitfire and never have any issues.

Cheers Murnetti, i may hold you to that.

Think that is how i have gotten confused Hoop, there is 15 comments here and nearly everyone seems to do it differently.
