What tf is going on with Vader?

by redbull123

Signed up for a month a couple of days ago & constantly getting logged out / not letting me back in (wrong username/password apparently), eventually get back in and some of the categories I deselected are enabled again , streams are constantly buffering every 10 seconds on a 200Mbps <10 ping connection.

Is it always so unreliable or just bad luck? Anyone else having issues the past couple of days?

Sorry mods if this kind of post isn’t allowed

Edit: I should say this is through the Vader app - the streams seem to be working better now on Perfect Player

I know if you do a quick search on the sub, you'll see Vader's is always having issues and isn't very highly recommended....but that being said, if the streams are working on a third party player, then it could just be a glitch app - at least this time!

I use Perfect Player with Vaders and I have had no serious problems. Just buffers very rarely

Vader is going through some major back end work right now. The APK has been glitchy to say the least, but when it works its fantastic...just doesn't work very well very often!

m3u is the most stable way to watch Vaders at the moment. So, perfect player is a good option for android. They have an m3u playlist that includes their VOD content, but its a very large file so it can bog down the app. I would recommend you don't use it as there are so many other ways to watch VOD. What Vader, and really any IPTV service, does best is, or at least should be, live TV.

The secret with Vader is to switch back and forth between Perfect Player and the APK. When one is acting up the other usually works fine. VOD is in permenant beta and always has issues.

I tested Vaders trial through @iptvking when Fab was talking about only going through resellers but it would buffer a lot and was kind of on the expensive side so I decided to go with a different service.

I re-upped with iptvking for Fab until they finally went belly up. I got Vaders through him as a backup and set up hls-proxy. Because of the ability to download chunks async, I get no buffering whatsoever. I am also able to merge my 2 services into 1 m3u.

The quality is great with Vaders. 720 at 50-60 FPS is much smoother than other services that provide “1080” at 30 FPS.

I think this service is great if you put in a little extra time and set up a hls-proxy. There are a lot of options out there but I’m using a Russian one. I won’t post the link because I’m not sure about the rules on posting links but it’s the first result on google when you put in hls-proxy in the search.

I might put a tutorial up if you guys are interested and I have some extra time.
