TheIPTVway – my chosen one!

I've been looking at alternatives to paytv providers, the monthly costs are getting out of hand now. A friend in the US switched to IPTV and suggested I gave it a go, my TV had SmartIPTV already installed. Having read through a few posts on this group I decided to take the plunge. Want to let others in search for a provider know about my good experience with this chap and his service. It's being sold here on reddit by u/dandy2005 and you can find him posting in r/iptvresellers (or that is where i found him).

Service is good, lots of channels from everywhere…of course I don’t use them all but at least there is something for everyone in there. Some go down every now and then but apparently they come back fast; guy said they have backup servers. I'm personally satisfied and I do recommend you talk to him!

Oh…I should add that it turned out the TV version didn't work too well. I had an old FireTV stick which I managed to resurrect though. Again, that didn't work too well. The young man literally stayed online hours talking to me and trying to come up with solutions to the issue, teaching me about VPNs, etc. Solved it with his recommendation to get VPN installed, but the old FireTV Stick (1st generation) wasn't compatible with VPN! I ordered a new 4k FireTV stick and it works like a charm. I have signed up for an initial 1 month period, but if all goes well I will continue with a 12 month subscription. I'm not set up using Amazon FireTV Stick running with NordVPN and SmartIPTV So thanks u/dandy2005! Drop him a line if you're where I was at last week.

Decoded streams full review.... Solid service

I have been using this service for about 4 months now. Started with a single service offered. They now offer 3. Two of which are iptv. One is a vod.

DECODED STREAMS: this is the original iptv. Great service with all your usa channels. Sports, movies, local networks, live ppv events and everything else im used to in a iptv. No vod in this service. It Also lots of international channels and adult content. Stream quality is 1080p or 720p on most every channel. Load time between channels is fast. I have delt with allmost no buffering. When i have had a issue i contacted admin on discord and the issue was handled in a timely matter.

REVIVAL STREAMS: this is the other iptv service offered. This service has less international channels. Its usa ca and uk only. With some vod. The Epg (tv guide) on this service is really good. Just like cable tv. Very organized and well functional. No adult content with revival. Again quality is good with this service. experienced no bufering as of yet. Overall for someone looking for a usa and canada service primarily its great. Has all the usa entertainment, sports,movies,ppv events and locals.

VOD: ill keep the vod review simple. Everything i have searched for its been there. Something like 12k movies and 2500 series. 4k shows and movies section had a lot more content than i have seen from vod's in the past. So i liked that. Its a very solid vod service.

SupremeStreams - Don’t Waste Your Time

Migrated providers 2 months ago as my previous main was shut down. So I head over to the resellers subreddit and see SupremeStreams. And for $5 a month, should be at least worth the try, right?

The service is not even worth $5 a month.

Primarily used the service for US entertainment and premium movie channels. There were backups for just about every channel, however rarely were ANY ever watchable. The anxiety from the constant buffering got overwhelming real quick on the first day. Nonstop nagging arose during the following days from the spouse saying she’s over the buffers.

Support is basically non existent and managed only by the admin; picks and chooses when to respond to customers, in addition to a huge temperament. When confronted about buffering (by majority of the discord server), just gives the same old response of “servers showing no idle on this end.”

Forget about trying to watch any sporting or PPV events. Not possible. Had to look up alternative websites every... single... time.

This service clearly preys on the newcomers of IPTV, those who are enticed by the low price tag for the wide variety of channels.

The fact of the matter is: there are so many more viable services that are worth spending a few extra dollars a month. This service is at MOST worth a dollar monthly.

I am so relieved to be done with such a horrible hosting experience.

Avoid empiretv.ca

Absolutely crappy customer service from these guys.

Lots of the feeds do not even work they promise you over 5000 feeds and a lot of them don't even work.

I was getting this error message when I even tried to open the feed with VLC

VLC is unable to open the MRL 'http://www.sansat.net:25461/E033400/jmgbqecvzFPxYUD/54417'. Check the log for details.

I got multiple channels like that. And a lot of them were the USA channels that I wanted too.

This isn't an issue on my side but an issue with their feeds!

Also another issue is that their feeds are constantly buffering. Now this isn't on my end or on my connection I am running at 80 Mb/s downstream and 8 Mb/s upstream

These guys are self proclaimed to be the best IPTV in Canada but they are absolute garbage!

DO NOT get any kind of services from empiretv.ca they are absolute crap!

When I asked for a refund after all this they refused and even though on their website they tell you that they have a money back guarantee well they lie!

These guys are nothing more than thieves do NOT buy any services from empiretv.ca Avoid these guys at all costs!

Reviews of Jarvis and Hero TV /Thunder TV

Jarvis: I took 6 months with Jarvis after a short trial, which as a mistake, it was consistently buffering at peak times and was unstable.

One reason buffering is bad is that they send all streams through a Los Angles based IP that's from a CDN and I'm on the east cost of the US.

EPG was okay typically.

One month they basically stopped working entirely for weeks, zero locals worked for multiple months. A poor experience overall. Not recommended if you're not on the west coast.

Lesson learned: never buy more than a month at a time.

Thunder / Hero TV:

These services are okay, buffering isn't too bad on major channels, but they occasionally have broken channels / channels without sound. Expect buffering on obscure / UK channels.

They have catchup on a few channels, which works decently.

EPG is okay, they create groups for events like NCAA Mens basketball which is appreciated but wish they'd include the ones on local US channels in this list too.

The lack of UK Sports channels is frustrating, e.g. they lack BT Sports 2.

They're good enough to keep as a backup but I need to find a better main.

If anyone has recommendations for trials or private services to try, I'm all ears. I'm motorsports (MotoGP, Motocross, Supercross, F1), and college sports focused, and would love a service with good catchup.

P TV

In short, I have found this service to be excellent having used it for roughly 5 months.

I have used several iptv services over the last 5 or so years. There have been some that I liked (eg fabiptv), others not so much.

I've constantly been looking for a service that I'm happy with, I've done trials with a fair few. I came across this on a Reddit comment and thought 'why not? I'll take a risk on one month.'

What I have found

*I have been using an Nvidia shield. Works fine with both VPN on and off.

Channels - UK (entertainment, movies, sport etc), US/CA (entertainment, movies, sport), international sports channels (bein, star and others)

Quality - On major channels; sky sports, BT, BBC you get FHD, HD, HD back up and an SD channel. On most others it's HD and SD. The playback has been smooth. On occasion I've found the FHD to be lacking in smoothness that I personally change to HD if I'm watching football, but usually fhd is excellent.

Reliability - In the past five months the sports channels have failed me only once, all channels went down for about 15 minutes. I'm able to watch PL, CL and UFC without any issues. When it comes to less popular channels I've found it less reliable. A few times the streams have failed to load.

Catch up - It seems decent, I don't really use it.

Pricing - You can get 6 months for £50, other pricing I cannot recall as it was a while ago.

Now, how to get it. Originally I got access by messaging a Reddit user. That account has been deleted. I have a telegram link now, I'm not sure if I can post it here. I'll put it as a comment so if it goes against the rules that can be deleted whilst keeping this review.

To be clear I wrote this review at the request of the provider. I told them how happy I was with their service once I found the telegram link after I thought they'd folded due to the deleted Reddit account.

Empiretv.... avoid!!!

Horrible company

Advertises 7 day refund but will ignore your requests on multiple platforms to communicate with me.

I have internet 600 with shaw in bc canada but their services freezes all the time in canadian and usa content. I cannot use the international channels as it freezes more. In detail, the video, and or audio freezes, as well as the tv guide function.

Empire advertises ppv channels included but it is not.

As my refund inquiry was ignored, i assumed i was dealing with an unprofessional company whom rips subscribers off.

The only time they replied was the ppv inquiry, they did not even know and had to inquire more info. I still have not received the info.

The only good thing they were good at was refreshing the service when it stopped working.

The moron i spoke to on whatsapp said i logged in so must be happy with the service. I explained to the moron, i logged in many times attempting to use or find channels that dont freeze.

This idiot then blocks me on whatsapp. They then blocked me on facebook when inquiring the above situation.

I still have the service but have no use of it because i cannot watch anything.

Avoid empiretv.ca at all costs if you are in my region.

I forgot to mention, the movie content for English is outdated. They said it would be updated jan 2020. This is one of the few things they did respond to

ProgoTV

Had this service ever since Gears went down. It's $30/mo (but I use a coupon code for $10 off every month). Overall verdict... pretty good. I use the Tivimate app with it.

PROS: Get all the USA channels, including many local network broadcasts (that's all I care about), sports, NFL Sunday ticket, PPV events, etc. Also has a bunch of other countries' channels and 24/7 channels. For the most part, no buffering, and high quality streams. Has support through website and fb group. (Don't think they have discord)

CONS: The EPG data is consistently down. It will be perfect for a few days, then no information on the guide for another few days. This cycle occurs all the time. That's my biggest problem. Other issues with the EPG is the data is inaccurate or a few hours offset. Probably 50% of the 24/7 channels don't work. Which I don't care but if you're going to offer it, it should work. It has had serious buffering issues during big events. During the college football national championship it buffered literally every 10-15 seconds. I used another method to watch the Super Bowl. I did watch the McGregor fight with no issues, though.

Overall, pretty decent, although the EPG issues are a dealbreaker for me.

Hypersonic vs LTQ (3months for about £20-£25)

Used hypersonic about 9months ago for a while which seemed OK but links went up n down over a period of time and I thought I'd tyr something else.

I found LTQ and used that for 8months or so and tbh it was fantastic. Only downtime was when the whole scene went haywire a few months ago and it took a good 3weeks to get up and running again.

I'm. Usibg nvidia shield as my main box, also old pc too as an htpc, oh and xbxox x.

Prefer to use kodi and simple iptv client so an m3u files are a must and both of these services offer them aswell as their own apks.

So 2 weeks ago I went back to hypersonic as I find LTQ to be very bloated. No need for 60'000+ channels, majority of them VOD. Its terrible with an M3u and kodi.

I prefer kodi as the epg is better and TV guides are customable to my liking.

But hypersonic, my god now I know why I swapped to LTQ instead. Still buffering, tv guides awful and in alphabetically in order. But it has less channels, about 6000 and also has its own app for kodi which helps.

Both around £6-£9 a month or 3 months abou £20-£25.not to sure on the prices.

Trojan IPTV review - Great for UK/England sports, football (soccer) fans, all Sky channels, BT Sport, all EFL iFollow games etc

Only been using it for a day, gave me a free hours trial on a Saturday at 3pm to check if their football offering worked, will do another review after a few weeks

I needed a replacement for Helix and this offers everything Helix offered that I needed with a better app for the Firestick.

Pros:

Very good service via discord from Arry, was getting replies within a few mins most of the time

UK based service so offers UK channels as a priority, all UK channels you could really want, including UK local channels, which is nice to have as I live away from where I'm from and like to see the news sometimes etc

Sky and BT Sports in FHD and working reliably in the UK with no VPN on a Saturday at 3pm

All EFL iFollow games from the Championship, League One and League Two (find this hard to get since Helix went down, US based services tend to offer only Sky Sports/BT, not lower league coverage)

Scottish Football covered too, not just Rangers and Celtic TV but also the smaller SPL teams like Motherwell TV etc, possibly even some Scottish Championship (have not checked that though)

Good range of European sports channels, coverage for Serie A, La Liga etc.

International sports channels, it does have USA sports channels, ESPN , NHL NBA, NFL, even College sports etc, and Indian sports channels too I think, has BEIN

International channels generally - has some of them, decent coverage here, offers most main US channels I think, some locals too, don't really watch them outside of the news channels for maybe a bit of uni work stuff

Irish coverage: Good if you are from Ireland or Northern Ireland, has a section offering channels from both, think it covers the main sports channels from Ireland too, was able to watch the League of Ireland on it, think GAA too.

Seems to offer a decent range of PPV, have not checked that out yet though

Fairly good VoD offering, I don't use my IPTV for VoD but it has a good range of films, series, boxing, MMA, wresting etc, the usual, plus some Netflix stuff

24/7 channels, has the standard US 24/7 stuff, plus some British classic TV like Fawlty Towers, don't watch 24/7 channels myself but they worked okay

Porn: It has porn channels, seems like the usual ones, doesn't charge extra for them, don't watch porn on my IPTV so not bothered personally.

Takes payments by Bank Transfer, Bitcoin, Vouchers etc

Cons

£15 a month for one connection is a bit more expensive than some services, could probably get similar channels for £10, I'm personally happy to pay the £15 because of the sports coverage (especially the EFL iFollow which is harder to get), but if you only watch Premier League, there's cheaper options, though the service with this is very good

While it has international coverage, and US sports, you are probably better off using a US based service if that's the priority, they work fine, and they take US customers, I would feel there are probably US based options that provide the same (although if you were based in the US and wanted football (soccer) and US sports, this would be a very good option)

The 6 month options are quite a bit cheaper, but I wouldn't trust any IPTV for a 6 month deal personally

Doesn't have a massive range of non western channels, don't care about that personally, but if you want to watch Arab TV or something, find another service imo

Overall

Good service for UK Sports fans, good entertainment offering from the UK as well, also seems like a good option for people who want Irish channels, very decent coverage of the US (not enough that I'd buy it if I were American and didn't care about soccer coverage, but enough that I don't need to buy Beast or something with this to watch major US sports, ents and politics).

Edit: After 1 week of use

  • Was good for the Wilder/Fury fight, only minor issue was had to switch channels before the main event due to one of the streams going down, but always had multiple streams of the fight working at all times, and no artifacting or poor quality and no sound issues, so much better than most IPTV PPV I have used (Helix etc went down a lot)
  • Catchup service- the catchup service is really good, although I've only used it for UK content, works really well, much more convenient than using IPlayer because it has everything from the last 7 days, and includes channels that don't have catchup or spam you with ads when you use catchup (like ITV). Really saves a lot of effort
  • Communication is really good, they have someone on the discord almost all the time, seems to have someone working for him on US time too, which means it might actually be an okay option for US users.

The best I've had so far

Hands down, these guys know what they're doing. Discreet, no websites, below the radar, simple payments and great after care.

Service has been fantastic from the beginning. Flicked through multiple live EFL games last night and all were fully functional and picture was spot on. Can't say for sure what the fps was but 60 would be an educated guess. Menu folders are organised to perfection and easy to navigate. UK focused service providing the full UK package along with the major channels from US and CA. Some Aus threw in for good measure, mainly sports channels.

The only negative I had (and it's just me being picky) is the amount of 24/7 channels, has a good selection but only around 60. Although the VOD makes up for this. All the latest series and movies along with older series and movies that I've never come across on another provider.

Easily the best service I've had in all my years hunting for a good provider. Was referred by a friend to 1 of the guys here in reddit.

ValiantTV (Valor) - reviews placeholder #2

So I posted this about a month ago now as a placeholder for reviews of my new service. Being new to the business I wanted my subs to share some honest feedback. I've gotten a really good uptake in that time and thought it would be time to post another so some of my newer subs can share their experiences.

I'm planning on taking on a new service soon and have also made the decision that once I reach a set number of subscriptions I'll stop and become refferals only so I can continue to give the best service I can.

I'll be posting this link in my discord soon so you should see reviews in the next few days. If after reading them you would like an invite to my discord (where I'm managing everything) you can post here.

One thing to keep in mind is that I only accept crypto currency payments.

Edit;

Something to note, we only do trials Monday-Thursday. Also I'm only around 5 subs away from my Valor service going to refferals only. Still have a fair few of my new Voltage subs before that goes to refferals.

Second edit;

Valor is becoming Refferals Only from 6pm est 16th of Feb as I've hit my goal for that. My new service Voltage is not refferals only yet but will become so sometime in the future. It's a great service so if interested I can still send a discord link 👍

Edit; 25/2 I've opened Valor back up for subs for a while but will not be giving out trials anymore. Still some Voltage left before it goes to refferals.

edit as of 29th Feb 2020 both subs and my discord are now closed and are referrals only. Keep an eye out on the Iptvreviews subreddit, if it opens again I'll post another review thread

Is very power mad loves to let his resellers know he is the boss and from what I see from screenshots (note I don't resell for them but know a few that do) He/she loves to be in charge.

Team Orion post Superbowl review

Hey guys, been a while since I reviewed anything but wanted to get this one in. Based on other reviews posted here, I jumped on the Team Orion bandwagon a couple of months ago and I thought I'd share my experience.

It is crypto payments only, which I love. With all the carelessness you see around here with openly advertising and saying you take Paypal, it's an invitation to getting shut down or worse, and putting customers at risk. These guys won't touch Paypal with a ten foot pole even if you ask privately. They've put a lot of effort into remaining anonymous. They've even got some chat software I've never heard of but is ultra secure, not like Discord or Telegram. So, that's first off...they actually set themselves up properly and it was likely a lot of effort to do it at the cost of convenience. So if there's a negative, for some people it'll be that...if you don't care about privacy and security you might find it frustrating.

Anyway, onto more important things...the service itself. So, last month they did hit a snag with some load balancing issues. During that time they were completely open and honest about it and communicated what they were doing to fix it. They promised it would be fixed before the Super Bowl...man were they right.

Last night's Super Bowl was streamed in 4K. On that 4K stream, there was not one instance where I buffered, crashed, or anything. So I would say they made good on their promise. Sports and events are beautiful, and even regional locals are great and they had a plan for when PSVue shut down.

It is North American based...so there's a heavy emphasis on US, Canada and UK as well, but for "footie" fans it's there and it's good but it's not as in depth as other services I've seen and I know it's not really a big focus for them so it's more for North American viewers. Some 1080p 60fps channels are starting to appear too so the quality is just getting ridiculous.

EPG is good, they've had an issue this past month with it causing some kind of problem but it seems to be sorted out now and it's filling back in.

No catchup. Very minimal VOD but there are free apps for that anyway so I don't know why anyone uses those features with IPTV...just hogs resources for something you can find for free anywhere.

This has been commented on other reviews before but the events these guys carry is insane. Every backwoods dirt bike race and underground fight scene event are here along with all the big events...I haven't seen any of these anywhere else. Not that it's something you plan your weekend around watched but when you flip it on and see the midget boxing championship between Smidge the Doorman and Grr the Midget who isn't gonna stop and watch? lol

Anyhow this is my first big switch from my other provider in about a year and a half and I've tried a bunch of other services in that time. For $11/month you really can't go wrong, this has become my brand new main provider, really solid and combined with a seller who actually takes security and privacy seriously, I wish more people set up this way.

9/10, if the stability shown during the Super Bowl continues it's a near perfect score from me.

There is a IPTV service out there which is tvnitro.net. I have now been with them for just over 2months and all I can say is, stay away...stay far away!!! The first month was ok. Everything was as it was supposed to be. So I bought 3 months....that’s when it started. Now There are more channels missing than working. Those who “work” frequently freeze or freeze and then come back in but the sound is missing. There is constant “There is a problem with the streaming of this channel” on too many channels and so on. I mostly watch UK channels, and the majority of UK channels are not working. I started before christmas to send them e-mails to their “support” mailbox regarding channels missing, sent more since then, have not had one single reply.

So....my recommendation, use your money rather as a toilet paper than buying suscription from www.tvnitro.net. You get more for your buck that way.

So, I need recommendation who to turn to,.....?

Sorry...just managed to watch half of my favorite program before it stopped working, just as a good part was coming up. I’m rather pi**ed off right now. But it really is that bad with them....

Sapphire Secure best budget provider yet?

So I was looking for a new provider just for PPV and football/soccer streams, I don't watch TV anymore and mostly use EmbyShares to watch shows. Came across this provider who sells packages for $5 a month which is probably the cheapest per month I've come across, understandably I was hesitant but $5 is nothing so what is there to lose?

They have 3 different packages depending on how many need to use it, Silver is $5 but only 1 can watch at a time, Gold is $8 but 3 can watch at a time and Platinum is $10 and 5 can watch at a time. Pretty good deal. So when you buy it, it's automated so your log in details are sent to you right away with a link to their APK and a m3u and EPG link. Personally found it nice to have a m3u link with so many providers forcing you to use their app now. Their apk is just your standard IPTV Smarters Pro, so it's nothing special. Personally I recommend you splash another couple of dollars on Tivi Mate which is about $5 one off payment. It's the best IPTV app imo, so I used that to test this service.

First day not going to lie it wasn't good, a lot of stuttering and channels not working. For some reason this completely stopped the next day, I have no idea why, maybe they were having a bad day. The next few days I had ESPN playing in the background while I was doing stuff, it was playing for a few hours and didn't notice any freezing or channel going down. It seemed pretty stable, I also watched a NBA game and experienced no buffering. I just want to point out no IPTV sub is buffer free so I'm sure even this service will have buffer moments from time to time. I think watched a Liverpool match, now for anyone who uses IPTV to watch soccer can confirm, watching a team as big as Liverpool play never seems to go smoothly. I've only had about 2 providers in my life time be able to make it through a big soccer match without buffering but surprisingly this service managed to do that, so credit to them.

I found the EPG to be a little behind at times, nothing serious but something that could be improved on. All in all I would say this gets a 8/10. Mainly for Value + Reliability I don't think it can be beaten, now I'm not saying it's the best but just for the price and what you get I don't know any better. So I would recommend this service if you're like me and only need IPTV to watch a few games, I would also recommend it for people who just need a back up option to their current provider.

I must also state like many providers there's no VOD
