I have moved to STVIPTV after the xtream codes issue , My sub was rocketstreams b4 xtream codes, then switched to helix after i heard they are still online and performing well or at least better than rocketstreams but this was not the case , so a friend recommended stviptv .
Few weeks back i faced some issues and some channels were offline but they were performing better than rocket and helix so i stayed with them , and every day there service was more stable and more offline channels went back online . Few days ago they updated all users that streams during games are back to stable so i tested them this weekend with Bein Sports 3 / 4 / 5 and some sky chans and they were performing good , mayb the best time after xtream went down .
STVIPTV current problem is yet they did not activate there portals with smarters iptv ( there old portal was working with smarters ) after i contacted them they confirmed that in the coming few days i can view with smarters .
If you are looking for live channels i recommend them , if you are looking for VOD specially series and new VODS they i do not recommend them , they update the list i think once per month , after i contacted them they Said currently they are busy in fixing the channel sources and soon they will give VOD more time .
In general stviptv is performing at least for me better than rocketstreams and helix
I gave this a 1 month shot. As has been said, It's an impressive selection of channels, and more impressive how most are up and running. If you are looking for Middle Eastern channels, this is definitely the service for you. Surprised that they don't seem to have any Irish channels outside of what UK Sky carries. This is something I look for.
Haven't given the Sports a full shot yet, but it looks like they have most of that sorted. Of note, I came across a NY Rangers Hockey game and the quality was exceptional. It was obvious that it wasn't a compressed Center Ice Online stream, so that was nice to see. I look forward to seeing how the NFL quality is.
Biggest Downside so far is that there are a lot of US channels that are not mapped properly. Like the major Fox Network mapped to Fox news. Real obvious issues. And I don't see any easy forum to report these issues. Other countries could be mapped just as poorly, I just wouldn't know it.
Might keep this as a backup to my regular service, and might make it my daily if they fixed mapping issues and added Irish channels.
