[ISO Safety Advice] Regarding a Mag254 IPTV Box

I have the above box and there's some guy (a colleague of mine knows him) that offers paid IPTV services.

He told me that he sells Mag equipment with preinstalled encryption software (installed by him). I told him that I already have a Mag254 so in order to avoid the initial cost I asked him if I could send him my Mag so he can set it up and send it back to me.

I was a little worried though, because this Mag will be connected to my home network. Couldn't he (if he wanted) install malicious software to gain access to my network (pc, laptop etc.)?

Is something like that easy to do? Do you think it's risky sending my equipment to a stranger and then connecting it to my network? Is there some kind of check I could do after I get it back to make sure nothing malicious is installed?

Thanks in advance and sorry if I come off as a total noob regarding hacking. It's because I am. :)

When will IPTV providers start using H.265 instead of H.264?

H.265 has several big advantages over H.264, including better compression, delicate image and bandwidth saving.

HD Sports & Turkish TV

Hi, looking for an IPTV service with HD (720p) & Turkish TV channels. I found SOFTIPTV I am trying the free trial out and it seems ok. Just want to know if there's any other ones before I commit.

I'll be installing on Kodi (Android box) or a Redline TS2500 HD plus box (is this like a MAG 250?)

I'm new to all of this so i'd appreciate your help.

Thank you.

RapidIPTV

Hi, for the ones who has a RapidIPTV account like me should have already notice that they are with some issues this last week. I haven't noticed any problem on channels yet but both their websites are not working properly. I do love the service, and I use to recommend to everyone but I'm a bit worried now after this issues.

My 1st quest is, should I be worried or this doesn't seems to be anything special and there is no problem if I keep recommending it?

And the second question is, can I use my account in different places/IP's at different times?

Specifically looking for provider with 24hr MLB Network

I have tried both SmoothStreams and SportsAccess. While they both offer MLB Network, the channel is frequently hijacked during prime time to show live games from other sports (NBA mostly it seems). They both must source the channel from the same place as the feeds are identical in this respect.

I appreciate the focus of these networks is covering every game but are there other providers out there that will provide reliable 24/7 MLB Network? I don't want to rely on simple channel lists as obviously that hasn't served me well in the two providers I have tried.

[Request] Some kind of flowchart for picking a service provider

There are so many providers with many different pros and cons depending on where you are and what you want. Isn't there some kind of flowchart that narrows down some options?

I know about this, but stokedcrf says it's not reliable and it doesn't exactly help you narrow it down that much.

I am in the US

My wishlist:

Reliability

US channels

Canadian channels

Indian channels

NBA League Pass

Lots of VOD

Stable USA & SKY UK wanted!

Bought a month over at Flawless but their US supplier has continuous major issues with channels, so I am on the hunt.

I (plus a few friends) are looking for LA or NYC local channels as well as having most of the other channels available in HD. SKY UK must offer the BBC, ITV, C4, C5 channels as well as the rest of the content in HD. Sports not a priority but SKY F1 and Tennis Channel would be a nice to have. International channels not needed.

Not looking for 1080p but stable 720p. Bad weather is no excuse (this is what Flawless are blaming their instability on).

Thanks.

Looking for some advice on a suitable service.

I am new to IPTV services, and not really happy with my current provider. The service has deteriorated over the last month (excessive buffering) and the EPG is spotty and incomplete. Here is the situation, I am located in South Korea with a screaming internet service of 500Mbs to the exchange. Currently I have a Roku3 and an Amazon Fire Stick, the service is via Kodi (Simple PVR). Looking for something that will work on either the Roku or the Fire Stick with a complete (or as complete as can be) EPG. English language service is primary, USA and Europe. Any recommendations would be appreciated, and would also like to test it first if available. Thank you in advance for the assistance.
