IPTVSubs MAG (STB Emu) Update

by lurking_in_the_bg

Hey guys just wanted to follow up on the thread I posted a few days ago blasting IPTVSubs shitty service for the past few weeks. It seems that they've made some changes to their end and now the portal has a new UI and the channel list has shuffled around a bit. The one main thing I've noticed so far is the channel change is INSTANT like seriously INSTANT no 1 or 2 second lag it just works like cable or satellite now and there has been NO buffering so far since the portal updated.

I hope the shitty service I and a few others have experienced was just them working behind the scenes and it's all behind us now. I'm loving this new interface and the improvements to stability and responsiveness.

Edit: It's across all platforms including Kodi as well.

im so impressed by the new kodi add-on. Like you said it's lightning fast, like instant. Am I watching cable or iptv? wow

What are you using to access iptvsubs? I am using Kodi, Just tried iptvsubs, It's same as before, about 20-25 seconds to play channels, or change channels. I see nothing different.

But I never had any problems with iptvsubs before. It was all fine.

WOW, what difference a week makes. When I first read this thread a week ago, I had no idea what MAG, STB emu, portals, Mag box, and many terms meant. Now I know.

OP replied me, "Read the title and post, STB Emulator which emulates a Mag box.", sure I read the title but didn't know much. I use PC and Kodi. (I am using ethernet, not wifi) Now I know what it all means. lol

What I noticed reading forums is there are "experts" who throw out terms that people like me, (who just wanna click and watch TV), have NO idea about. So when we ask "stupid" or "obvious" questions or comments, then you experts roll your eyes. haha.

That's ok, just take little extra time to explain. BTW you can tell many of us are newbies like me by noting how and what kind of questions or comments we make.

Anyway, i uninstalled old v1.0 and installed new v2.7. uninstalled old EPG, addons, and disabled PVR Simple Client. It only takes few seconds to load and rare buffer. When buffer, I reboot PC, pause then play, or just wait few more seconds then no more buffering. Beautiful.

As for EPG. TV guides, PVR, I find tv schedule from websites. From what I read on forums, EPG is a big mess, sure some claim it works, some don;t. I have channels I watch often in favorites, click star lower left corner. And don't mess with EPG.

As for recording, i found ways to record outside of Kodi, so again no need for EPG,, PVR, etc. IMHO PVR and IPTV is still in infant stage.

I always remind myself, lucky to get TV channels via IPTV. Sure there are problems, but so far much much better than NOTHING, yes even with few buffering. then for $10+/mo? it's a steal. lol Enjoy

Hello,guys,

With the new update iptvsubs has been lagging.tried to log on to the subscribers forum(as I am a regd member),the forum and web page is down,do any of you guys experience the same.

I have had their service since 3 months,and I am happy with the quality streams and have not had any problem with regards to their services so far.

Any input would be more than appreciated.
