I am new to the IPTV game, but wanted to give my review so can help others that are looking as well.

Re-seller: /u/iptvking

Devices: ATV 4+ ATV 4K, iPhone and iPad

Main use: Sports (NHL, NBA, NFL, MLB, PPV)

Connection: 100/10

App: GSE IPTV

Setup: Remote playlist

I trialed a bunch of subs before using Vaders. I was previously using BossTV (EPIC), but at the time, they lost a few sports channels that I needed. I mainly use IPTV for sports and when traveling, movies. I have not had any major stuttering or no major issues with channels when being watched. From time to time a stutter, but nothing major. Didnt effect my viewing at all.

I went with Vaders because of their sports selection, quality of sports streams and multi-streaming. Been too many times where I was traveling and had to ask wife if she was watching a game when I was in a hotel. Quality is amazing. If wife not complaining, or cant tell difference between our DTVN sub, it's good.

I asked different resellers of Vaders questions (pricing, support, etc) and it's how I chose /u/iptvking . He/she replies very quickly, is patient (I asked a shitload of questions before buying service with him/her), and never pressured me into subbing.

I like using remote lists since it breaks this down into better categories. I mainly just search. GSE is not pretty, but for me, works perfectly.

If anything wish for me to add to review or answer questions, please let me know.

Hi, my first post here and I want to review my experience with Vader. I tried multiple providers (trials) before but I liked the multi device Vader offers and gave them a shot after getting a trial.

• Background: I am from Michigan, USA area with a 100mbit internet, the device is wired, a VPN tunnel which provides at the end 25mbit down and 10 mbit up. Plenty for IPTV. I watch mostly US TV and Sports on the weekend

• Packages: Vader offers 1m / 3m / 6m / 1 year packs either credit card or bitcoin

• Devices: I am using two Dreamlink T1+. Vader only allows one MAC address, so I use a Perfect Player with the m3u address on the other one. Once you register and provide the MAC address you can use the DOL2 app instantly or login using perfect player.

• Playback: Switching channels is almost instantly and I rarely experienced any buffering or lag so far. Quality is good on a 50 inch TV. Almost similar to cable I had before.

• EPG: This is the tricky part. Loading in DOL2 takes a long time, up to 30 seconds. I noticed that in perfect player the epg is loading faster. Accuracy of the EPG is a hit or miss. Shows being labeled wrong which can be difficult if you want to watch catch-up shows since the time will not match the show.

• Catch-Up: This is a great feature if you missed a show and you can watch it up to three days. Almost all US channels have the catch up feature. One of the reasons I was drawn to Vader. If catch-up works its great. In my test phase it was working 60%. Had to use other methods to watch a missed show.

Overall Experience: 8/10. I signed up for a three months pack after the month. The quality of the streams and speed and almost no buffer even at sport events / events is a benefit for Vader. It works for me and I am happy so far.

Support was more or less helpful but responded fairly quickly.

The good;

UFC was shown on BTSPORTS 1 in HD. Stream was flawless and in true HD. Not one sputter or freeze. Best PPV ever from a streamer and I used flawless (shit), fab (shit) ipguys (shit) vader (shit) and few more that are long gone.

The Bad:

UFC was only shown on BT SPORTS 1. They have 2 other PPV for UFC that didn't work. So UFC was only on one channel. If that stream went down viewers would be fucked since the other 2 on the PPV side didn't work at all. If you didn't know BT plays UFC you wouldn't have found it.

Out of all the services I have tried Voodoo has been always the best. The rest, especially UK shit, is awful and as close to a scam as you can get.

However, this was the first time I watched UFC on Voodoo and the PPV side didn't work. Not happy with that. Usually they have 3-4 PPV ch. that work (UHD,UD and 2 SD).

This is my first second IPTV experience. I used SETTV before this.

Right off the bat, liked that they had an App even if it was in beta. However, I was constantly running into issue where midstream the stream goes offline. Changing the channel then going back seemed to fix that issue, but in my mind, i should not have to do that. I came across one channel and it said the play station vue couldn't stream that channel. Obviously that's the rebroadcast but feel like as a customer Vader should be on top of that consumers ideally shouldn't see that.On some channels the audio/video were so disjointed it was unbearable,that's just something once you see it, it cannot be unseen. I was excited at the local channels selection but unfortunately it wasn't local to where I am. The m3u playlist in perfect player was great only for the EPG because the one in the Vader app was too hard to use. The Vader EPG would bring the time to the largest timeslot, so if you have shows that are all 30 minutes, and a move that is 3 hours, it takes you to the beginning of the three hour window and never reset back to the proper time. I was always finding myself hours before or after the current time. The clock on the EPG screen didn't update often. i'd look at it, then go to try and find a show for that time to realize i was off by 30 minutes. Streaming from perfect player just didn't work. No channels would load, those same channels were fine in the Vader app. The video on demand in vader is decent however all shows I wanted to watch it couldn't find a stream. It's also missing a much needed search feature. At the end of the day, I just want something that works and I don't have to worry about all the inconsistencies. For the effort of getting it working I'd rather just use an app like mobdro that's consistently works just has lesser quality video. I hope to see Vader do well, and a few months down the line or so I'll look back into it. But right now, for me it's not worth it. I've never had to pay for cable, so now that I plan to i'm being picky because i could do without. With that said, I have said good things to people and encouraged them to look into it, if not for nothing get a trial and see if they like it. But they get immediately turned away when they see the website, it's quite childish and unprofessional looking.

I paid €10 for a month subscription with 6000 channels.

During the purchase they ask what you use for IPTV, I chose Amazon Firestick. When I went to their instruction page the one for Firestick is empty. I tried to set it up as an external playlist but it wouldn't work, I downloaded the m3u file myself and added it manually on siptv.eu.

The channels are really well organised into groups and EPG works well. The problem is you can only watch the video for 10 seconds before it starts buffering, every 10 seconds.

I've emailed their support and had no reply so far.

I'm in the UK and have my Wife's parents here for Xmas from Italy. Can anyone recommend a good provider for Italian TV in the UK? Doesn't even need to be premium channels, happy with just Rai and the normal free channels.

I am checking out IPTV for the first time and decided to get a really cheap provider. I am using Verizon Wireless for my ISP. I did a data usage calculation based on my usage while streaming various channels and it looks like IPTV requires between 3 Megabits per second and 6 megabits per second at the most for sports (but I hate sports). I just reset my data usage on my router's WAN port, let the TV stream for 5 minutes on each test channel, and did the math. I tried multiple programs: ProgTV/DVB, Perfect Player, Kodi w/ official add-on+Simple IPTV Client, and now finally yesterday I started using a Dreamlink T1 Plus.

Comments:

ProgTV (windows): Would not play streams at all on the ProgTV 5 foot interface.

ProgDVB (windows): Played fine for about 30 minutes at a time and ended up glitching and freezing often. EPG was ugly as hell.

Perfect Player (windows): I got the EPG and channels to download but they would never play.

Kodi with official PK addon (windows): This bothered me because I had to allow installation from unknown sources. Worked really well for playback "speed" but would crash every now and then. Also certain channels had no audio. The only common theme here I found was that the higher the quality the channel the less likely audio worked. It probably had something to do with Dolby. The stream just acted like I stopped it and it went back into the previous Kodi menu. VOD worked FLAWLESSLY on my FireTV stick as well as my i3 HTPC with passive Nvidia HDMI graphics card (i cannot recall the exact card model).

Kodi with Simple IPTV Client (windows/firetv stick): I determined that you can use just the IPTV Simple Client and did not actually need to use the repo provided by PK. I just entered the M3u and EPG URLs, restarted kodi, and it worked fine. This of course had the same problems as the official PK add-on for live TV because they are one in the same.

Dreamlink T1 Plus Review: Got this for $89 shipped on AZ. I had to input my MAC on PK to get it to work but it worked instantly after I clicked submit. OH. MY. GOD. Amazing! Channel changing is SO MUCH FASTER. I do not like the VOD/catchup menu as well as I like the official Kodi add-on. The EPG only shows 4 channels at a time so the font is big, but this should be configurable. To that affect the EPG would sometimes show "No Information". This could be because of the way the T1 caches the EPG. On Kodi I never had the issue but I think Kodi only downloads the EPG once a boot and the T1 does it on the fly because it is a Stalker protocol client. As for recording it works fine. PK does not block recording shows. I had to format my HDD to exFAT with windows because there are no on-box format facilities and the Dreamlink cannot read NTFS. It can use FAT32 but the filesizes will be limited to 4GB and idk how it would handle large .ts streams.... my gf loves the box compared to kodi because she doesn't have to use a mouse and keyboard, but the T1+ includes a mouse "button" on the remote that will show one on the screen that you can move left or right for web browsing etc.

Players Klub Service Review: All in all, now with the T1, it has been a pleasant experience for $5 a month. The problems I have had are: The EPG is straight up inaccurate on SOME channels and fine on others. Some channels will be 2 hours ahead. Some channnels will be 5 hours ahead. One channel (CC) was accurate, then an hour later it was 12 hours off! The lack of reliable EPG make it unusable for my girlfriend and therefor unusable for me. I am trying a few other stalker services (lol) because giving up on IPTV but if I cannot find a reliable EPG there is no point. I don't like 3/4 of the shows I see when I am flipping through (which is why I don't have satellite anyway) and the only use I feel I am getting out of it is the music video channels.

Hi, i can't recommend Necro iptv service. After about 4 months subscription, its been dissappointing. Lot of buffering, or servers totally down. Almost always buffering in big match events, like weekends and F1 races. Even Arabic channels are buffering which i dont think are most under load.

After long service stoppages (last weekend totally down), they tell about new servers and how everything should faster and so on, but this has been same story from start today.

Its not expensive 19,9$ for 3 months, but it still too bad service for that price. And if you are looking good quality streams with good connection i dont recommend this service, save your money and buy other.

I'll start with my main service which I've chosen to be Ace.

Channel Selection - 9/10: They offer a huge range of channels which I believe is over 3600 right now. Plenty of UK/US/CA and international channels to choose from. I did find however they are missing a couple of channels I watch like MTV UK for example. Still I am impressed with the selection.

Picture Quality - 8/10: As most IPTV providers get their streams from the same source, picture quality isn't going to look that different no matter who you're with. I am happy with the picture quality but it could be better.

Buffering- 9/10: This is the reason why ACE is my main service. I get very little buffering only really at peak times and then ISP throttling on top of that. I can still watch SD and even some HD channels without problems. All I have to do is turn my VPN on to stop my ISP throttling me and I can watch FHD again without buffering at peak times.

VOD - 6/10: I personally don't care about VOD. I have terrerium tv, movie HD and plenty of other free movie apps that do a great job. From what I can see they have decent amount of VOD.

Conclusion - Very happy with the service overall. There hasn't been too much down time from my recollection so rarely have to use a back up.

Now for my backup service Flawless.

Channel Selection - 10/10: Huge and fantastic selection of channels (Over 5000). There isn't one channel I like that they don't have.

Picture Quality - 9/10: Most streams are from the same sources as other IPTV providers like I said before, so majority of channels look the same as anywhere else. When it comes to their own streams they look so colourful, sharp and most all smooth with 50hz streams. Really impressive and look forward to seeing them add more of that quality.

Buffering - 7/10: Alas all good things must come to an end. This is why Flawless is only my backup for the time being. I get extremely bad buffering at peak times without VPN on. Even sometimes during the day it would buffer. This could be to do with the route to the server I'm connected to or higher bitrates compared to Ace. Either way it requires more speed for me to watch Flawless than Ace and I don't always have that speed without my VPN to help and even with my VPN stopping the throttling, It still buffers on FHD during peak times.

VOD - 7/10: Like I said VOD isn't something I really care about. They have quite a good selection. If they or Ace offered 4K VOD I would be more interested.

Conclusion - Fantastic channel selection and quality let down by buffering for me. I'm sure with fiber speed and no throttling, buffering wouldn't be a problem for other people. There isn't a lot of down time here either from what I remember. Always up when I need it.

I have been using this service for about 2 months. I have experience with Epic, Smoothstreams, and RapidIPTV.

Quality: FHD, HD, SD. There is no buffering, but I am also sitting on fiber connected. I have seen other vendors buffer. They tend to keep upto date on the latest shows. TV is nothing short of stellar, its 5000 channels, but its the channels everyone watches.

VOD: Decent, Most if not all modern. Its not a huge selection of VoD, but its defintely worth it.

Sports: Oh hell yes, FHD, always ready, I love it.

Adult: I do not know if they have adult channels, but pornhub works for me. I never asked either.

Customer Service^stellar: They go beyond the extra mile. I have numerously sent operators messages, and they jumped on my issue/question and fixed it rather quickly.

I forgot how much I paid, but I would pay double for the no buffering. I think they are a re-seller, but its a rock solid provider. This provider will be the first provider I will renew for a full year. I am setting up my friends and family with this setup. I have tried this on a low end ISP. No difference.

So if you trying to decide a new IPTV, I think they have a trail.

TLDR; Rock solid choice.

Heard a few good things about Vader iptv and happened to come across PM club whilst trying to find out how to get a Vader sub,

I believe they are a Vader reseller , they offer a 48 hour trial during the week so it gives you plenty of time to check out everything before deciding on whether to take a sub.

Can watch it on all the usual ways Kodi , Smart IPTV, mag , web browser , GSE etc and their Kodi add-on is one of the best ones I've used.

They have access to all the SmoothStreams feeds as well as their own which is a bonus. Their catchup is extensive and covers a lot of uk/US channels as well as SmoothStreams matchcentre catchup.

Been using it for the past 2 months and have not had any issues so far at all , premier league football works at the moment without a VPN in UK (although a VPN is recommended just in case) and there is quite a wide range of channels from UK/USA to a lot of foreign ones.

Quality of the streams is mainly HD and a lot of the main channels are covered in 1080 although I do prefer the 720 SmoothStreams ones for the football as it looks better to me.

Best thing of all is the fact that they allow you to stream from 5 devices at once in your house so you can be watching something and the wife and kids can watch other things at the same time. I have not seen any other provider that allows this many streams for the same price.

The support is spot on , they have an active telegram group and the couple of queries I have had have always been sorted quickly and with a friendly attitude.

A tenner a month or even cheaper if you pay for a year.

I'd like to make it very clear that im only giving you MY experience with them.

but anyway... i decided to go with IPTVBoss ( a reseller part of the Epicstream family) after being impressed with what epicstream had to offer.

my first week with them i signed up on a Thursday so all was well for 2 days then comes Saturday the real acid test for any IPTV provider and it didn't go off to a great start.

for the first week the football on sky sports was unbearable but the Arabic channels worked ( sometimes ) so i didn't make a huge fuss.

anyway 2nd week comes and its still the same problems with channels looping missing big moments in a game. ok so now i'm irritated by all this and i'm the most patient person you'll meet so i submit a ticket thinking i'll get a response in an hour at the most. ticket was submitted at 4pm i got a response around 11pm simply asking me to reboot my router.

i'd like to also make clear that i work in IT so things like "reboot the router" doesn't cut it with me, i know my way round troubleshooting things before i seek help.

don't get me started on their facebook group either cos you might as well speak to a brick wall to get any solutions. any time you complain they simply respond with "reported". customer support is so so so bad its not even funny with this reseller. it just comes across as someone whos had enough of people complaining

i'm not going to vilify the whole Epicstream family but if you do go with them i'd probably stay away from IPTVBoss

Deleted previous post as it was overly long and rambling.

1. Jason claims he owns his servers and runs his own streams ( this is a lie he resells pearl iptv )
2. He has stated he's shutting it down Jan 1st yet continues to push for people to buy yearly subs.
3. he sells a yearly sub but only adds a month to 3 months in the panel then claims a glitch when caught. ( 1 or 2 sure maybe but over and over? )
4. He likes to claim he's working on a new premium epg it's litterally just Pearl cleaning it up .
5. he sells plex accounts with his services but doesn't pay for them and when service gets cut off claims he doesn't know why.

If you must get service with him don't buy more then a month. If you have a yearly sub with him already your screwed, put a paypal claim or cc claim in.
