I'm sure I'll have questions....what to add, etc. I added the 4 you suggested (Exodus, 1Channel, Pro Sport, Phoenix) - once I get a bit familiar with what I'm doing, I'm sure there is tons more I can ask. Thanks a ton for all the help! |

If/when you have questions, hit me up. It's capable of quite a bit, just let me know how far down the rabbit hole you wanna go. It's capable of being rooted at the moment, if that tickles your fancy. You can do some extra customization stuff with root. It's complicated. But if there's not really anything specific in mind you needed it for, it won't really be necessary. You can sideload just about any app. There was a recent update released for FireTV, the v5.0.5.1 firmware update. If you've already went through the setup process, you've probably already updated to that as they try and force it as part of the setup process. It changed things quite a bit. Mostly for the better. |

A very strange thing happened to my firestick overnight. I plugged it in and the tv didn't recognize that it even existed in the hdmi port(s) I could understand that if only KODI was gone as I've accidentally deleted it before. But today, even the Amazon TV content was gone. Everything.
I changed TV's thinking maybe my bedroom tv hdmi ports we messed up. So I tried another tv. And another. And no fire tv. No KODI. NOTHING. Anyway if you have some suggestions, I'm all ears. |

Kodi just released Kodi freetelly. Basically Kodi with add-ons pre-installed and ready to go.
Only available for Windows and Mac though. No plans for Android as they said it's "easier for Android users to do it themselves". |

So, what's the deal with Pro Sport? Just installed it the other day, but there never seem to be any streams for anything. Trying baseball games, just to see the quality, but not finding any streams for the games listed.

It shines for NFL and NHL. Especially NFL. Come NFL season, you'll find every single game along with an archive of all previous week's NFL games that you can watch through the season. It's like free NFL Rewind. It admittedly doesn't do as well for baseball though. I use Castaway for baseball and ProSport for NFL and NHL.

How is the stream quality typically? Hockey, especially, seems to suffer when the quality isn't great. I may be moving later this year, and may not have access to directv when I do, and want to ensure I can still watch the Chiefs and the Wild in good quality. |

I'm going to do this. Thanks for the info. But before I make my purchase, will the FireTV Stick be sufficient or should I go with the box? |

Get the box. After following Fish's instructions I'm watching everything on KODI in HD. The excess memory has been an incredible upgrade.

Yeah, seriously. The price difference is bullshit for the difference in hardware you get. Just spend the tiny extra and not worry about it.
