🏆 Troy's Favorite Things of 2024

Couldn’t agree with you more. It’s the only car I’ve ever owned that puts a smile on my face EVERY time I get in it. The technology is amazing and it keeps getting better with time with ongoing software updates. I’m sad when I drive my other gas vehicle which is a requirement at times such as long road trips. There’s no doubt there are negatives and biggest one for me is supercharging during long road trips but 98% of my driving is local and I love not going to gas station.

Hello, I went back to Syncler as subtitles didn’t seem as good. Regarding DVR, I use that for my daily news shows that I can’t get through on-demand apps and sporting events.

I see you use a ZIMABOARD system for DVR. It’s a great $200 plan. We ended up with an old school $100 mini PC that still added external.usb drives, and a keyboard and screen fake dongles to get win 10 to act like a server. For DVR software we use NEXTPVR which does the rare DVR function as needed. Am sure ZIMA is more robust in a few ways.

Am using a pixel 6 pro that was $225 used in pristine condition. Agree that your pixel 7 choice is the way to go.

Interesting list. Was hoping to find something about best sports site. I can no longer access NFL Redzone via Crew and can’t find it via Umbrella. Any ideas as to access it?

I did the same buying the ONN Pro recently. And then I realized all my 5 tvs were set up with ONN (the others the 4k) and my more expensive Cubes and MeCools were boxed up. The ONN is simply seamless with no glitches.

KODI not very reliable for Live TV or sports. Most of us have a paid IPTV service for Sports. If you become a Patron you will have access to the Locked Thread where unverified IPTV services are discussed and reviewed. Also RedZone is done for the season. It ends the last day of regular season which was yesterday.

I’ve had great success using Kodi to watch live tv. It may take a few tries to find a good stream and there may be some buffering but it is minimal. I find that Sky Sports has a good stream. I guess since it serves England and the are into that other type of footie the stream doesn’t get much use.
I have an IPTV service but I rarely use it. I will probably drop it when it ends.
