Hi Everybody,
I recently purchased the Kodi TV Box H.264/H.265
My Son, who is tech savvy has spent a week trying to get the box to work, but try as he might, he can only get one sports channel to actually work for live streaming. His ISP is Virgin.
I now have the box and I have connected it via my BT ISP, with exactly the same result, only the same one sports channel will actually work for live streaming.
Unfortunately I am not Tech savvy, so would very much appreciate any help and advise as to why it will not work?
Many thanks,
[/size]

Well, where to start.
First of all have you read the forum rules about banned add-ons because it sounds pretty much to me that you are having the problem with one or more of them.
Secondly, your description of the box is, regrettably, meaningless. Look again to see what it really is.
Thirdly it is possible the two major ISPs you refer to are blocking your streaming especially if your add-on is getting pirated material. To test this use a VPN. I stress I am not advocating the use of pirated material, not on this forum anyway.
Fourthly, if you bought the box "fully loaded" (with rubbish) then uninstall it and do a clean install of Kodi from the official download page and try again taking great care which add-ons you put on.

Hi,
My apologies if I have broken forum rules, I have no idea which ones or why?
I was under the impression that I had bought this box from Kodi, so it seemed logical to come here to ask for help.
Now I am totally confused, what have I bought??
I purchased from Ebay the following MXQ Quad Core Android TV Box Fully Loaded KODI (XBMC) UK SELLER ✔ Kodi (XBMC) ✔Plug N Play ✔ Fully Loaded
It has the name KODI all over the ad, so I assumed I was buying from Kodi.
My Son has also installed the Kodi software without the box, and has had the same result, even using a VPN, so it would seem it is not the box that is the issue, you decide....
Never mind, it is all going in the bin now anyway, it is obviously a complete load of crap, box or no box.
Thanks for your time....I think.

+1 to Dangelus and +1 to DarrenHill.
To 1gor2don I would say there is a wealth of knowledge on this forum and provided you keep within the rules (which you have so far) then take advantage of it.
Your box is quite probably OK but has come with rubbish (bloatware) on it which already has unfairly blighted your experience of Kodi.
