CWMcMurray Posted September 12, 2015 Share Posted September 12, 2015 Always see a lot of posts about how to get Netflix in Thailand or other options for Western streaming TV Just saw this new service here in Thailand Free trial 1 month trial period and then only 100 THB per month Have signed up for free trial and looks good. Also no need for US Credit Card or VPN/ US DNS Server.. Doesn't have as many series as Netflix, but still quite a few and a lot more that Hollywood HDTV and Primetime (other options in Thailand) Also found quite a few series that aren't on Netflix Anyone else tried this service yet? Just thought folks may be interested.. https://www.iflix.com/?utm_source=adwords%20&utm_medium=banner&utm_content=300x250_html5_m_genre_drama&utm_campaign=iflix_launch_th#4EQoXLs7Izt0l8bK.97 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anthony5 Posted September 13, 2015 Share Posted September 13, 2015 Am I the only one that find it strange that you have to sign up before you even can enter the site, and that from the point no pricing plans are available? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It mentions 100 thb per month on website I don't worry about getting charged for nothing, but I find it strange that they don't publish their price plans, when they mention 100 Baht on the pop up when you enter first time. In fact it can be free for ever as long as you're able to create new email addresses. As for their content, I find it rather weak with dated movies and series. I recently discovered Kodi on the android set top box, and much better and newer content is there available for free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonw8uk Posted September 13, 2015 Share Posted September 13, 2015 There are quite a few thai sites (= good speed) that stream a lot of western series. Added bonus is that they have thai subtitles for the better half to watch too. Quality aint HD, but definitely watchable. Works great on a smart tv through the browser, or plugging ya laptop in. http://www.subthaiseries.com/category/ดูซีรีย์ต่างประเทศ/us-series/ I'managed to find all the most popular series, and it's pretty up to date search in english at the top, easy to navigate. Just another option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DDbkh Posted September 13, 2015 Share Posted September 13, 2015 I signed up and tried to play but could not get any tv or movie to play. I just got the whirring circle in the middle of the screen but no show. I will check again later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sniffdog Posted September 13, 2015 Share Posted September 13, 2015 Movies ... same old stuff as primetime and hollywoodhdtv. Apparently an Malaysian company. But 100 baht is a steal. Will find out if the app runs on my jailbroken android box. Update: The android app on my tablet works, but on the android box I get an error and the file doesn't run.

sniffdog Posted September 13, 2015 Share Posted September 13, 2015 On PC movies don't run at all. Obviously another service put in the market too fast. I think we should ignore this for a couple of months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arkom Posted September 13, 2015 Share Posted September 13, 2015 I tried it and it work fine for me. Decent selection of TV series with the latest seasons. I mainly use on my iPad or MacBook Pro, although they don't advertise HD streaming the video quality it very good. One down side for me is that on the iPad you can't AirPlay to Apple TV.

Anthony5 Posted September 13, 2015 Share Posted September 13, 2015 Does it ask you to install Microsoft Silverlight ? don't really want to do that. regards worgeordie It requires siverlight.

Having same issue.. Downloaded app to iPhone and iPad and works fine for both ... But can not AirPlay to Apple TV... So some what limited... For Netflix /Hulu never an issue for sending to Apple TV via AirPlay... Anyone with any tech background, have any idea why would not be able to AirPlay from IPhone to Apple TV? Any work around known?

BaldPlumber Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 Runs well on Win 10 laptop and a minix z64 TV box. Does not run correctly on an android minix TV box - seems to download the video, but won't stream or play it . Content a bit dated, but streams flawlessly - I'm guessing that local servers are being used. Big bonus having Thai subtitles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IMHO Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 As for their content, I find it rather weak with dated movies and series. Right - the age of the content is what hamstrings them all, IMHO, including Netflx*, Amazon Prime*, Hooq and this one. All of these services are good as replacements for the old school DVD rental shops only - if you want current content, you'll need to pay for True Visions, buy a MaigeTV, or endlessly fiddle around wtih Kodi.. * Except for their exclusive series/specials, of course.

JetsetBkk Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 Just had a look - nothing there that I can't get via torrents, and I've got a backlog of them to watch anyway. It was worth signing up just to get their crappy "Welcome" email: Congratulations on your decision to subscribe to iflix! We knew you were awesome from the moment we met! But on the real though, THANK YOU for joining. blah, blah, blah... I think this may be aimed at 12 year olds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cooked Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 In which languages is it available? THA ENG THA + ENG ? I am on the free trial as I am looking for Thai language films and TV series. This doesn't have, or it doesn't show how to get, Thai stuff. I'll probably leave it after the free trial is over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeyNow Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 In terms of performance, I've had excellent results with both Windows and Android devices. The site and app are both very responsive and relatively well designed. Very cool how they now let you download TV shows (up to 7 at a time) and keep them for a week. Wish they'd do the same for movies and expand their movie catalog in general. The sci-fi section, for example, has a whopping 33 titles. Some titles seem to be miscategorized (e.g. Captain America as "Drama?") I emailed customer support several weeks ago, asking for a couple shows in particular. Lo and behold, just this past week two of them showed up. I agree that the content is rather limited, and they'll be hard pressed to compete with sites like Hulu that have the most up-to-date content or Netflix with their original programming. But based on my limited experience so far, it seems like they're serious about improving their service. I'd say it's a service that's definitely worth keeping an eye on, as they do seem to want to do it right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CWMcMurray Posted November 28, 2015 Author Share Posted November 28, 2015 Was having trouble getting it to play on Apple TV with AirPlay from APP on iPhone But found that if you download then AirPlay works perfectly Also downloads are great, as can then watch with out Internet connection for up to 7 days Sure there could always be more titles.. But considering only THB 1,000 per year!! A very good value!!! Also like that there are many shows on here that are not on Netflix. Also no need for DNS ... As can use anywhere inThailand Totally worth it and have signed up for 1 year subscription Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
