It should work like any other box, Giggles, once you've loaded Kodi the instructions are identical. Just that with the Shield the specs are awesome so it'll be slick as hell after the first time you run (so all the menus have loaded).

How do you get a decent football stream on this now? Phoenix seems to be shite for me.
I'm on sports mania. 26£ for half a year.
Is it good? How did you pay for it? I really don't like the idea of giving my card details to pirates. Or even paypal.
I'm on sportsmania too. It's great.
Sportsdevil
Just PayPal it and stop being such a pansy.
Is it easy to add Sportsmania to The Beast? Like so if I go to the Sports menu it will be listed as a submenu, preferably first? Sick of bad streams and the awesome one Mike uses (247HD, used to be plus1hd) is closed for signups, so fancy getting on Sportsmania. My mate uses SportsDonkey (and I think so does diljeet?) but it seems expensive.

Sports Mania is an absolute game changer.
Any sporting event live around the world on iPad, iPhone and Kodi for £1 a week. Insane.
Was just flicking around that and the Exodus thing when I was home earlier for lunch and it really does seem to be working brilliantly. I've the sports paid til next Sunday so I'll go for the year and cancel Sky next Monday if it all goes as well as it has.
Handy that it works on the Shield too as it's the only internet thing in my house that's Ethernet wired.
I've been using Sports Mania and Chromecast this season and it's all largely been great. The site had a nightmare during the first half of the United v Liverpool game a few weeks ago, but that's the only issue I've had so far.
I'm still not totally familiar with the interface, how do you search for shows on Exodus? Or do you have to go in by genre first?
There should be a search option at the bottom of the menu?
From memory the menu is things like Genre, People Watching, Top Rated, Returning TV Shows, Box Office, Highest Grossing. Search should be further down.
Did you find it @Giggles?
I did indeed, cheers. Fucking wrecked this morning after Star Trek and 4 episodes of Elementary when I should have been sleeping though. It's brilliant.
So much slicker than all that torrent nonsense. Waste of time.
Far better. I was finding torrents hard to come by anyway. But even if they were readily available where I used to get them, this is so much more streamlined. Nothing I watched last night missed a single beat and the quality was class (the HD ones are all is needes for the TV I have).
Yeah, I'm the same. Sometimes the 1080p buffers for a few seconds. Normally evens out after 30 seconds of pause but I'm too impatient and just switch to HD.
Still smooth as on my TV too.
That's exactly what happened me with Star Trek last night. Stuttered at the start but I didn't know it'd even out so I switched to HD and it was spot on.
Also, college football on sportsmania. I've missed it
@Adamski, is there any way to make a page of favourite channels on SportsMania? And likewise of TV shows on Exodus?
You can get builds which do it for you. There's a sportsmania build which changes the menu options you see into bespoke ones. I haven't used it but if you google sportsmania Kodi builds it should throw up some images and instructions.
Similarly, in the Kodi settings you can go in and edit the menu options on your own to put Sportsmania as an option on the homepage (and channels can also be added as sub menus of this but I've never gotten that far)
Cheers. I'll take a look.
Some of the builds are decent. They're basically a skin which collates multiple add ons and channels within add ons into a nice easy to use interface.
Thinking about it, I'm fairly sure there's a favourite channels section on Sportsmania that you can possibly save to. You can on the app, I'll check when I'm at home.
The predecessor to Exodus (Genesis, funnily enough) let you store favourite programs and films into a menu option but I don't think exodus does.
Exodus' 'My TV Shows' section seems to look for an IMDB link.
I can see where to add a channel to favourites on Sportsmania on Kodi, I just can't see where to access a favourites section.
Paid for a one day subscription to SportsMania and already it's the best £4 I've ever spent. There's even an iPhone app! If all goes smooth tomorrow i'ma cough up for six months and go balls deep in making my own kodi build.
It'll just have SportsMania and this exodus on, and that's it. Pity the remote for my android box is dog shit. Will
Definitely need to set up the kodi remote app on my phone again.
Top work, TTH.

I've signed up to Sports Mania tonight for a week to try it out. Just been having a look at their live streams. They are very good quality and working perfectly. I'll probably sign up 6 months or a year after this week.
SportsMania doing Black Friday sales tomorrow, including Lifetime Subscription. ��
I'm a twit
Oooh, super. The week I got for a trial is up so I'll be getting a decent length subscription. Thanks for the heads up.
Good man. Been good enough that I'm ready for long-term. I'll be doing it anyway whether I catch the sale or not.
Oh nice. Time for a 6 monther for me.
Nothing showing yet but if anyone sees anything throughout the day, stick it up. I'll do likewise.
Worth keeping an eye on here: https://twitter.com/SportsMania005

Cheers @Baz. I'd say the lifetime ones are well gone at this stage now. I'll wait til my month sub is up.
If you're made of money and £150 is nothing I'd guess the lifetime sub would be worth a punt, but there's no saying the site'll still be up this time next week, nevermind in three years. I'll stick to 6 month subs.
gimme rep.
I'm a twit
That's my thought. Keep the smaller investments then if it goes you're not in a bad way.
Yep, I go with 6 month instalments too. I was burned on a site a few years ago that disappeared overnight a few days after buying an annual subscription.
Well all the stream of The Grand Tour are fucked on my Exodus. Same for anyone else?
Used Kodi before and on my firestick, was a pain in the ass - Been lying around past 18 months, has it improved since then?
Currently using Terrarium app and cast football matches using the chromecast plugin on chrome from my laptop.
There's a new deal on six month sub. Check the twitter.

Fox Sports 1 for a big College football Saturday
@Adamski
Turnstiles at our game today were fucked. Spent 10 minutes outside streaming the game on the app
Is there an add-on for after the event sports, either full or highlights? Wouldn't mind catching last nights Packers game later.
I think you can get that on Sportsmania somewhere but not sure.
I know there's a section on the Ares build that has football highlights but not sure about anything else.
Actually, only after remembering I have the NFL on series link on the Virgin box. I'll have a hunt round Sportsmania though later as it'd be handy.
There is sports on demand on sports mania.
Totally forgot you can download from Exodus
That's tomorrow's plane sorted.
Only discovered that last night myself. Very handy.
