Kodi android (formerly XMBC) 09:38 - Jul 12 with 220713 views | the_gasman | Had one of these for two weeks and am gobsmacked by its capabilities. i want to be fully prepared for the football season though, and just wondering what i need to watch the swans on. I don't mind paying for this. Any advice from those that are experienced with Kodi would be great.Thanks | ![](/images/avatars/9646.gif) |

Kodi android (formerly XMBC) on 10:07 - Jul 12 with 31845 views | Fuggie | Have Kodi on my phone and it works relatively well but on Laptop/PC it is much better. The main Sports Addon use to be SportsDevil but I used Vdubt25. SportsDevil searches the Sports streams eg. Firstrowsports, LS Hunter etc. and I think requires Flash Player at the very least. Certain streams will also require the use of Acestream or other Torrent programs which can be tricky to install into Kodi, though there are guides available on youtube. On a phone, Samsung S4, the quality was poor (when it worked) and in the end made me switch to Vdubt25. Vdubt25 needs to be installed from a specific web location but again a youtube guide is available and is quite easy to do. Last season and it worked well and had most matches in either SD, 720HD or 1080HD depending on the broadband speed available. Had issues towards the end of the season but appears to be back up and running again recently, watched the ashes yesterday on it. The addon bascially links to TV Channels from across the world so you may need to find a Swans match via online TV guides or check this site on match days. Please note that like everything on the web sometimes links do not work so be patient. If anyone has other Sports Addons that are good please let me know. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Kodi android (formerly XMBC) on 15:21 - Jul 12 with 31470 views | jack_in_exile | Interested in one of these for when i don't go and to watch other league games too. Question - is the quality like watching a normal match on tele? or are you simply paying for a box to be able to watch a crappy stream through your tele? Also I take it you can watch films through these boxes too? Sorry for the basic questions, I'm a bit new to these boxes. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

There are numerous streams showing any given game some better quality than others, if you have good download speed then a good picture often HD can be had. Also films, live TV and TV series are on there. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

It happens on almost every forum, new member asks ins and outs on how to watch free and then prem go out of their way to take streams down. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) | Login to get fewer ads

I was advised to get the T8 with 4 core processor , as I say, I'm thrilled with it. I paid £90 and it came with a keypad that I haven't needed to use yet. Mine came preloaded (there's so much on it), but my mates came three days later with nothing on it even though it stated it was preloaded. he watched you tube vids and sorted it himself though . | ![](/images/avatars/9646.gif) |

Kodi android (formerly XMBC) on 03:29 - Jul 13 with 31025 views | ChrisSCFC | Can you use the Kodi computer app the same way as an Android box? Apologies if it's a stupid question but I am clueless when it comes to this sort of thing. Couldn't get my head around the 'add-on's' either to get it to work I'll have a look at some of the above links tomorrow. | ![](/images/avatars/16838.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

As far as I am aware the Kodi Computer Program or Kodi App for the Android phone work the same way. The PC version is basic and you will need to install the addon's/customised front's etc but as mentioned earlier there are plenty of guides around to assist you. For the less computer savvy it make take a bit longer but as others have mentioned it is definitely worth it. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

I been told they a lot better, but i'm new to this so don't quote me. I think the box is viewed basically as a computer, so the t8 is a 'better' one than the others , memory RAM etc | ![](/images/avatars/9646.gif) |
