Anyone having issues with Vader streams atm?

by Spewaged

Anyone else having problems with Vader Streams currently? All weekend long I’ve had intermittent buffering. Not constant, but once it starts on a particular channel it doesn’t stop. It’s literally interrupted the TV viewing experience, because it seems to only happen whenever I’m actually enjoying something with my wife lol.

I’m trying to narrow down whether it’s a problem with my new Formuler z7+ or not. I’m currently using the stupid WiFi dongle it comes with, which has dropped connections a few times, however I have an adapter on the way that’s supposed to allow the box to use my internet to its full capacity, so before I cast judgement I wanted to make sure if I was the only one or not

Aside from that the idea of Vader streams is really nice. I like the way it’s laid out on mytvonline app, and I love the catchup feature and video on demand sections. So if it doesn’t seem to quite work out with Vaders(as I’ve heard mainly negative things about it) what are some similiar more reliable alternatives? I’d like something that can take advantage of the MYTVONLINE app.

I've said this time and time again, but no one seems to care. Use HLS and a proxy if you don't want to suffer from buffering issues.

Join the telegram and ask for help if you can't work it out.

It will work with most IPTV providers.

Yes, it’s been happening these past few days. Both on my dreamlink and buzztv, as well as their apk.

Take a look at some of the $5/month options as I have done. You can have at least 3 of them for the same price as Vaders. I have vaders and a $5 one. BTW Vaders for last 2 weeks have been buffering like crazy and now apparently they don't automatically put me on the closest server to me. My other iptv is out performing Vaders and with no buffering. I am going to stick it out with Vaders for awhile (it used to be dependable)but I just don't like the idea that I wasn't told (as discussed here) that it is in beta mode.

Spewaged

What exactly is in beta mode?

Also fair to point out I was using Eternal and was happy until my autopsy didn’t work and my service got cancelled. Now I can’t sign back up

I am starting to wonder where to go next. I was gonna go and try Vader cause I have been getting this buffering problem within the last week with TNT media, another $5 or $8.50 I paid for 3 connections. I wonder how many services are stealing each others streams. You can see picture logos on the top left corner from time to time on different channels. I seen the notorious little green UFO one time from Area 51. Seen SET too but theyre out of business,. wink wink.

Are these buffering complaints pretty widespread - we haven't heard that many complaints on buffering - Just wondering if its a specific isp to a specific server on vader side.

I also wonder what bitrate the 5$ sub you have is streaming the channels you watch that info would also help.

Spewaged

I don’t have the information regarding bitrate. Maybe some other user of EternalTV can chime in here. PS I’m using a 400mb connection isp is Suddenlink. This happens with and without VPN enabled. Today it seems to be running just fine though. No issues to report as of today.

Also on a side note does the EPG data not working with Formuler boxes when using m3u and EPG url???

Spewaged

Also I’ll be receiving my Ethernet dongle and will be rid of the WiFi dongle by the end of the day so I should be able to either determine if was internet connectivity or not.

Spewaged

I inevitably decided the forget about it and put the Formuler back in its box. I’ll just use Vader’s with KODI for now.

Definitely nore buffering than usual on Vaders. Comes and goes. Very irritating.

Guys this thread should be taken over to the iptvreview section and out into the Vader- Oh Deary Me thread. It is very interesting reading and if you are considering paying for Vader be sure to read that thread. I am/was an avid fan of Vaders = so keep that in mind.

You always how options if ya need a trial pm me please

Not sure what happened with your subscription but I got mine from https://getvaders.tv and I haven't had the issues you had. Maybe it was your internet connection.

Spewaged

Lol sad that a five dollar a month service out does Vader’s. Unfortunate.
