  1.  

    That's got to be one of the dumbest things I have heard about [emoji3]

    It was done to protect attendance at the lower league clubs and "grass roots" football clubs up and down the Land who all kick off at the traditional 3pm, the only game that was allowed to be shown live at 3pm was the FA cup final following the end of the league season.

    Seemed like a good service until tonight.

    First game wasn't too bad until the last 10 mins until it became unwatchable. Checked my internet speed and it was fine. Even went on Kodi and the stream was better.

    Tried to watch the 9pm game and couldn't find anything that worked decently. 

    Turned it on to soccer Saturday on sky sports 1 and the same then turned on to sky sports news and it was perfect.

    It was 50 times worse than my worse experience on Ilikehd. Heading back to 365sports for tomorrow's games.

     

    Are you referring to iviewhd in your 1st line?

    I flicked through iviewhd (awful) ilikehd (OK) and 365sport (best viewing experience)

  3. I have just tried iviewhd and half the channels don"t even display and are buffering in the b/s and Kb/s when the working ones are Mb/s. My internet is stable.

     

    In the 3 day trial everything worked fine. Any happy iviewhd customers out there? Zero feedback replies on their website.

     

    As mentioned they are still displaying the CTH Stadium channels and I haven't seen any additional EPL channels.

     

    I did the free trial with 365sport and I will take up their 3 month Premium package special offer for 999 baht and check on iviewhd 3 months down the line.

  4. They will definitely take some business away from Thaiexpat and 365sports


    Might effect 365Sport as most viewers want to see sport live and in HD, currently the big plus for Thaiexpat is their 10 day catch up service. Without catch up a lot of the UK channels will either be on Night Screen or Telly Shopping followed by glorious Day Time TV. OK if you are a fan of Bargain Hunt, Homes under the hammer etc..
  5. I've still got 2 weeks left with ilikehd and not expecting a "buffer free" Saturday night.

    Any feedback on how iviewhd EPL coverage performs would be appreciated as I'm still weighing up my options.

    ilikehd have also added more EPL channels from Singapore but probably unwatchable if recent performance is anything to go by.

  6.  

    I've had daily problems with ilikehd, and now they have told me they are dropping Sky News entirely as they "cannot get a stable source" (this info from them this morning).

    I've signed up for the True football package with Bien 1-4 which has gone live today. That's 299, but I also had to have the basic Family package for an additional 299. Now I'm waiting to see if True and/or which Android box provider shows the daily Football Today programme at 19.30 or 20.30 Thai time. I'm willing to add that box to a second tv for that show alone, but it will also give me all the UK channels.


    I told ilike HD that I will no longer use their service based on current performance, they informed me they are upgrading servers within the month plus 3 day catch up but I seem to remember hearing this last month.

    Sky News Live in HD is available on YouTube, some Android boxes require the "YouTube for Android TV" app to view live streams (version 1.2.7 works best on my MINIX box) France24, Al Jazeera, DW also available.
  7. Yes. I was thinking about the Wife or kids watching a movie while you want to watch the football or cricket.

    In my household the wife watches "Thai movie" soap and gossip channels and the young one is on YouTube, no one else is interested in sport which is all I selfishly want:lol: Cricket is back on, hopefully buffer free on ilikehd.

  8. ILikeHD allow you to use more than one devise but not at the same time.

    If you want to use two at the same time you need to pay twice.

    Agreed, but I can only be in one place at a time and I am not always in the same place, if that makes sense :)

  9. For some reason i can download iviewhd apk on my phone but when it downloads on my android box its says cant open file.

    I've mentioned this before in another thread, iviewhd can ONLY be viewed on one Android device as they link to the MAC address of the unit and you would need to pay for another subscription if you wanted to view on another device.

    Thaiexpat, Expatpremium, 365Sport and ilikeHD all use username and password so you can log into any device and pretty much any platform. I had a whinge to iviewhd about the MAC linking but I don't expect any change.

    As regards to your problem you should be able to download their app to most Android devices but as you can see from my previous points you would have to pay multiple times for each device.

  10.  

    I'm pretty sure that it's not the same company,

    iLikeHD market their own branded android box, the pricings are are not the same and trying my iLikeHD password didn't work.

    I have come to the conclusion that ilikedhdtv and iviewhd are the same company and you are correct "ilikehd" (without tv) is a different company.

  11. The way I see it in regards to the primary service for each channel with EPL lower down the pecking order on 3 channels:

     

    BEIN 1 Premier League

    BEIN 2 Spanish Footbal

    BEIN 3 Italian Football

    BEIN 4 European Football

     

    The 3 True Sports Channels included in the Super Soccer package are for Thai Football, sport only.

    A key word that may be missing from their advertising of "watch all 380 games" is the word "LIVE" please Correct me if I am wrong.

  12. I get confused with all these names but I have been using ilikehd and not ilikehdtv which seems to be different or even possibly a reseller of ilikehd (no tv)

     

    I dowloaded the ilikehd+ Android app from Google Playstore and set up my account from within the app.

     

    I have mainly used them for the 2 hour pass with mixed results but will not give up on them just yet.

  13. I do already have a True dish & box. Kept them on with a basic Family package in anticipation of them getting the footy back and not having to go through a new sign-up and installation. Going to visit them in Kalasin tomorrow to see what they are offering. Just a footy only package for 399 sounds too good to be true (no pun intended), so we'll see.

    Looking at the poster above, it could be Platinum + 399. That would make a lot more sense.

    See Post #256 which seems pretty concise where it states it is free, this will be for the 1st year only.

    The only thing I would add is the 199 for True Sim holders is for watching on their Truevisions anywhere app, I don't know how good it is, any comments?

  14. To me it looks like you can buy the box as you could with GMMZ and buy a 1 month package of your choosing. This way Truevisions will reach out to those that can not afford the high cost packages to maximise their revenue. I wouldn't be surprised if they started flogging boxes with a certain amount of Super Soccer subscription in the same manner as GMMZ did and latterly CTH. The boxes are HD capable and I do not see why they are not showing in HD for 399 when the add on is 299. Seen boxes on Lazada from 1200 baht.

  15. So it might be possible to purchase a "True Digital HD" box and simply connect the cable previously used for CTH KU Thaicom 5 or is it 6?

    Sounds too good to be True!

    And only pay 399 plus tax to watch the footie, interesting and much better than streaming (when it's not raining!).

  16. Mixed delivery results from Aliexpress, from 2 weeks to 2 months if it arrives at all! Lazada international delivery has been consistent 2 to 3 weeks tops. Agreed you may find Aliexpress cheaper, same for eBay.

    lazada is now part of Aliexpress too, Rocket Internet sold it to them, things can now only get worse. only buy something there if it is "sold and dispatched" by lazada themselves

    The point I was making is that international items ordered via Lazada tend to arrive quicker than Aliexpress from my experience. Despite the tie up some items are cheaper on Aliexpress but with delivery risks.

    the delivery risks are probably the same, as in many cases, the international sellers on lazada are identical with the ones on aliexpress.

    "from my experience" the delivery risks are not the same. Ordered international item from Lazada 2 weeks ago and arrived within 2 weeks, ordered an item from Aliexpress 2 months ago and only just made it into Thailand and still not received. I have had 3 international items from Lazada and they all came within 2 weeks. Lazada probably have some influence when it comes to delivery method and priority.
  17. I have both the U1 (Lollipop) and X8 H-Plus (Kit Kat).

    Both good units and never had any major problems except for a minor issue with the U1 when using Thaiexpat TV, 365 Sport and Expatpremium android apps.

    On the X8 H-Plus everything works fine but on the U1 it tends to freeze on buffering requiring me to toggle Pause/Play to unfreeze. I do not know if this is an issue with the U1, Lollipop or the apps as they all seem the same. The U1 performs well with Kodi and YouTube live steaming.

    A good first hand user source for info is the www.minixforum.com or use Tapatalk. Loads of info on "pass through" app compatibility etc.

    I should have done this before now but I just carried out a test of the Thaiexpat TV app on my daughters Android Lollipop tablet and it doesn't work very well so it would appear that the problem is not with the U1 but with the compatibility of the apps mentioned on a Lollipop device and I wouldn't hold out much hope that they will update their apps while they are still flogging their Kit Kat boxes.
  18. I have a Minix X8 H plus and two Beelink M18, at less than half the price of the Minix.

    The Beelinks have a better chip, have Android 5.1, and are incredibly fast compared to the Minix

    The Beelink M18 does look quite good and might consider it for the spare room, available on Aliexress but couldn't find it on Lazada Thailand.
