A member posted here that he can only view highlights.

I'm referring to watching live events.

I sideloaded the supersport app and used a family members account, can watch all the channels live.

Only issue is the play button that remains on screen which someone suggested I just install a previous version, haven't gotten around to it though.

Quick question , does the FireTV stick support Dstv now? And the FireTV?

Yes unfortunately it does, but I can live with that. Actually want to try previous versions to see if they will work.
There is an older version which does work without any dimming, but it does not have the android tv/leanback interface.

Fire tv Gen 1 yes as I have one running it. Still needs to be sideloaded. Not sure about the fire tv stick.
So i've sideloaded and this is what I'm getting

Continuous loading like screen. Not sure if it's a temporary issue or an incompatibility issue

No error message, just spins and spins until I kill the app

Hi,
Does anyone know if xmbcfan is still on forum.
Loaded latest firmware from mo123 on nagrace nt-v6. Unable to get dstv now to work.

Last time I remembered doing a full unroot on supersu on old firmware (1.8).

Has anyone found a way?

Is there a droid tv box which has at least 2G ram, ethernet port, runs Kodi 17, SHowmax and DSTV Now for under R1500?

Even if in China

You can pick up a media box for 800 bucks from the Boksburg flea market. Haven't tried showmax but dstv, supersport and kodi works.

I've got the fire TV stick, the one with Alexa (think gen 2)
Now the app opens up to the home screen and allows navigation around the menus, but streaming of live or catch up content does not work
