Looking for an invite to either World Boxing Video Archive or TC Boxing but they seemingly have had closed registrations for years now.

 

Every 'how to' site seems a little sketchy. Hoping someone can point me in the right direction through dm's.

A reliable IPTV provider is your best bet. Unless you are content with watching things a few hours later, on demand and then Kodi add-ons will be an easier option.

Live sports are a bit of a pain to find a long term reliable source outside of IPTV, but something like Mad Titan or The Loop add-ons are half way decent for live stuff.

That would be a pretty long list and also highly subjective. I'm a big fan of Paradox Interactive but can see how many feel their business model of multiple paid dlc, for what are often core features, to be highly predatory. The obvious ones being EA, Ubisoft and Activision Blizzard spring to mind though.

I'm on 5G here and have no problems so I don't think that is it. If you are doing the downloads through your browser I've found Firefox is pretty unreliable and fails to download often. Usually hitting retry and waiting a few second fixes it though so I'm not sure if that is what is happening to you. I instead use the link grabber feature through Jdownloader and download through there. Stremio performance is flawless for me, except when Debris itself or the add-on is down.

Edit: Though I've never heard of an ISP doing this I presume they would be able to throttle any traffic with you connecting to a debrief server, I reckon that is highly unlikely however.

Oh nice! Knowing corporations though I'm just trying to figure out how they are going to screw us on this.

F1 news just keeps getting crazier. I really can't see how you can retain your position as head of the sports' governing body if guilty of these accusations. Though this is F1, it will most likely be forgotten by the Saudi checkered flag.

Hope this is rolled out to other countries and not just the US.

I still use Authy, I know it's frowned upon in the privacy community but it's worked well enough for me so far. With them shutting down their desktop app though I see no reason not to switch to Aegis at some point in the near future. Just a pain in the backside setting it all up again as Authy doesn't let you export your 2FA.

Yeah this is all I need. A couple of weeks ago it was going down most nights so I still have my Kodi build with Seren but it only gets used as a backup these days. Would love a few add-ons like Fights on Demand through Stremio though, only thing missing for it to be the perfect streaming solution for me.

I've never really used them as most content I can find readily available on public sites. I do want to get access to the World Boxing Video Archive one day as that is an area that seems to be pretty barren on public sites, unfortunately it seems that the registration is forever locked. Maybe I'm wrong but they all seem pretty pointless unless you have some pretty niche tastes in which case they can make a whole lot of sense.

Exclusive to the American market I presume /s

Possibly, but it's unlikely we will ever hear the facts of this case, I mean we still haven't had confirmation that the misconduct was even sexual in nature, it was first reported as him bullying a reporter if I'm not mistaken and without the facts we can't say what motivated her to reject the settlement offer.
