Necro IPTV - F1 focused review - A Pretty website, but meh service.

by TN-iptv

I'll try to keep this short for any other F1 fans looking into a high quality IPTV provider for the rest of the season. I tried Necro since they're one of the few that has Sky F1 listed as 1080p. Can't find any with 50 FPS, even at 720p. Sounds good, so I tested a trial, then got a month based on that.

The trial got 1080p for qualify and the race, but reverted back to 720p for everything else, and even swapped a few times during the 1080p sessions. Despite that I figured it'd consistently get the 1080p for races, even if there were a few drops to 720p here and there.

A few weeks into my month and things are quite different. I haven't seen the 1080p channel hit 1080p. It has it in the name, but nope it's 720p. I've had multiple tickets replied to with basically we're aware, then instantly closed. On top of that the stream gets stuck in a loop every hour or so. It'll repeat the same 10-20 second clip, go to encoding artifacts, repeat, then fully drop. It's usually back in 1-2 minutes, but in real time F1 that's a massive amount of time.

One good thing is it's within about 20-30 seconds of live most of the time, but some others I trialed were even closer so I'll probably give them a go and report back, good or bad. I've still got a bit left on Necro so it'll stick as a backup, but at this rate I won't be renewing.

Welcome to IPTV, enjoy your stay. All providers promise the world and deliver nothing close. I got into IPTV a few months ago but I'm ready to tap out. Every single providers I've tried lets me down whenever loads get high during sporting events for example. I'm using Fab right now and Sky F1 has been all over the place all weekend. Very disappointing.

Dude if you want quality sports, the only way is SmoothStreamsTV. Real 720p @ 50fps.

Trailed necro, though it was well okay. I am with Flawless just because i like the layout in STB and they have alot of lines for p2v. 90% which i cant even be bothered to watch because for the content im paying laterally jackshit.

But had no issues with Necro, thought the quality was easily good enough. I dont really care about 720,1080 though as long as the picture is stable and clear. If i cared that much about it, i wouldnt be using IPTV at the end of the day. Buy a $3000 USD tv and connect it to a $10 service its kinda retarded in my book, only something a fucktard would do. Your prob on an amazon firestick running kodi over 2g wifi.

Also your local setup matters alot, i pay for 300mb down and 20mb up. But even better my line has no traffic shaping, and to add to that still i use vpn.

You sound like a tight wad, you prob got some shitty bundled internet, connected to the free modem you got with it from 1996 that makes sounds from a c64 cassette tape everytime you connect. But you had spectrum 48k.

But still your id is TN-iptv, you got no other posts, and you sound like a fuck tard. So just fuck off and stop spamming this total dog shit on reddit iptv.

Id rather watch a dog scratching its itchy arse across concrete than read another one of your posts.

We always try to provide our customers with our highest quality feeds available, but when those feeds go down, our backup feeds, which may not be so high quality as the one that has gone down, kick in so we can still provide the channel for the users.

Some channels are not so stable and overall, that's true for all providers, sadly . I hope that your experience improve with it on the near future.

anyone know of a rock solid service for F1 ?

smoothstreams seemed to also drop out for me but it may be a routing issue from my ISP.

I have tried epic and now with fab and both have issues during the races but are fine outside of them.

I’ve heard this a couple times about this service. Thanks for sharing 😊

I have been subscribed for the last three months and it was pretty good at first. Unfortunately since the recent change in service, the channels reliability has been awful. Constant looping on most channels on some days, buffering almost every minute or more on other days and a bit of both on other days. It has become unusable and unfortunately I paid for a year! Hope this is resolved cause it's unwatchable at the moment.
