Fire TV & SPMC - Buffering

by c47v3770

So I use Vader and have been experiencing constant buffering with my Fire TV while connected wirelessly and through ethernet. I'm using SPMC. I did a test today... I played the same stream from my computer (wireless) through the Vader web player and there's zero buffering. Could it be a bad Fire TV or does SPMC need some tweaking? Again, the buffering happens both on wireless and ethernet.

TIA!

Edit: Connected my fire TV to a different server (LB US WEST) and no buffering so far. So for those experiencing buffering... try all the different servers. And yes, I’m aware Vader has been going through a rough patch lately.

I ran vaders through perfect player without any issues. Vaders always ran like crap for me on spmc or kodi. Im now using an nvidia shield with zero issues

I never had a stable provider with Kodi. You really have to tweak your settings to watch it well in Kodi. If you can, use the APK. You should be able to sideload

I prefer STBemu but whatever works :)

I prefer to use PP, but the APK works fine too...

Why not use the Vader APK?

You can't reliably test the Vader connection on your FireTV by comparing it to what's happening on your PC. That's just a troubleshooting fail from the start.

Step one always needs to be an internet speed on the actual device in question. Pretty sure Vader might even have a direct download in their repo to an app which will allow you to do that (I personally just run one through Ares Wizard on mine).

Vader has had problems for last 2 weeks, read a little.
