TrueSport & Kodi

[DUS]

After "refusing" to install and play around with Kodi for a very long time, I finally succumbed to the temptation last weekend. I am not 100% I will regularly use it for live TV as the picture quality on the channels I briefly watched was mostly poor and buffering was an issue. Nonetheless, there were also some streams which looked pretty amazing. So, I am sure I´ll play around with it for a while and see if I can find some quality (and stable) live streams in the days and weeks ahead. That being said, I wonder if anyone can recommend a source for viewing TrueSports channels using Kodi. Are there any good streams available? Obviously, I might always revert to ilikeHD and its competitors but whilst I am playing around with Kodi for the first time, I´d surely like to have a look at TrueSports IF these channels are available. Any recommendations from your end?

 

Cheers

The only kodi add on  I've ever seen to be a good source of paid local channels was called uplayhd. It was discussed on the forum a couple of times. It worked really well and also had on demand movies and series with subs or even dubbed into Thai (shock horror).

 

Unfortunately, it's long since gone to the dogs, as many add on seem to when they become too popular and over subscribed.

Thank you for your feedback! That´s much appreciated!

 

So is the buffer-prone ilikeHD service the only alternative streaming service that shows all the TrueSports channels?

I haven't seen any TrueVisions sports channels (666-690) on any of the major Kodi aggregators, but they may be out there. You may have to dredge some Thai forums, or ask in a shop which sells kodi boxes.

 

Most of the content shown on TrueVisions sports channels is probably available elsewhere?

 

There is the TrueVisions Anywhere app, but that requires a credential (uniqueness not a requirement), and only shows ~ half of the sports channels.

 

What are you trying to watch?

I just want(ed) to watch the Thai football league. Have subscribed to ilikeHD (30 days package) but both the buffering as well as the picture quality on the SD channels is so bad that it isn´t really fun watching any of the live games. Not sure if anything on Kodi (if avail at all) would be any better, though.

I found two TrueSport channels (TrueSport 2, TrueSPort 3), one of which was showing a Thai football match (not sure if it was live, I think one team was Buriram United?) via the Halow TV Kodi Addon.

Thank you! Yes, that was the Army v Buriram game ...

 

I'll check Halow TV out! Thanks for sharing this ...

I increased my cache capacity and buffering was greatly diminished both on Kodi and ILikeHD.

There are many YT tutorials on how to do it.  It's a bit complicated but worth it.
