Kodi Android TV Streaming Box [Livingsocial + wetek group]

Allyall

It can stream media from local and online sources.
You can buy media subscriptions (IPTV, netflix, amazon movies, sky go etc..)
You can also play games and check your email, browse the internet etc.
It is a mini media centre itself, plug it into you TV, connect to the internet and you are ready to go.

Thanks Allyall.

RossieMan

if you have poor internet it may not be for you.

If you don't know what kodi is, its definitely not for you.

lolliedog

Poor internet is temporary. Kodi.... You have to start somewhere��

RossieMan

have you a computer or a tablet? Download kodi to either first and see how it goes.

if it suits you, buy a box, i wouldn't waste money until you know its something you want.

i run kodi on an old dell i5 laptop i have lying around, im getting this box to save on electricity and because its a little smaller.

What the hell are you talking about, this was not organised by a mod, I only offered to help facilitate it. There is no one making any money out of this, what has happened in this thread has happened many times on boards in the past. If you have a problem with me or any other aspect of this thread, then report it and let those higher up look into what has gone on. Also, if you read back through the thread, you'll also see that another user has done exactly the same thing as I have facilitated and he wasn't a mod either.

Ah lad, it was a group purchase to save all involved a few quid. Great idea, not sure why you have a bee in your bonnet about it.

On an unrelated manner, did anyone buy the box from living social in the OP? Its available for about 47 euros now with packaging. Is it worth getting? Never 100% sure about what sort of quality the electronics from those deals sites will be like

What was the one in the OP? The Leelbox?

you would be better of going for the one it is trying to imitate.
The original can be bought for ~ €34 and dual boots.

It has a biggish community too - More Roms etc.

I remember the last time I put OpenElec on my PI DNLA streaming would flat out not work, and looking up online it said it wasnt supported. Streaming to OpenElec that is.

Have Openelec sorted it out yet?

RossieMan

I can stream to my openelec box, not that pretty of an experience mind you.

How much is it and what's the waiting period? Is the box pre loaded?

All the information is in the last few pages. I'm offering the exact same as before. They'll be delivered to Longford and I will distribute from there. Similar to Aquo, I'll deal with postage charges when they actually come, each person can tell me what way they want theirs delivered and they can pay me whatever it is then. I'd say approximately €80 or less before postage.

Is there many still interested in this, that haven't ordered already? I just caught up on thread, as I hadn't been following as I thought ye were still discussing the op.

Still a good price with the DVB-T2 tuners.

You can buy the DVB-S2 tuners for ~ €15

Yep, still at the discounted rate as of 6am, albeit with not sat models in stock.

For someone who is clueless and just wants to plug in and go would this be any good?

Is the wetek box the one every one has been group buying? Can it only be got through a group buy?

Yes it is the Wetek Box. Use code BLACKFRIDAY for another few euro off. No need to buy in a group, but the idea is that the more you buy, the more discount you get.

Probably a clone, Allyall had a link to the original MXQ on page 10(mobile device), of this thread.

I must keep an eye out here should another group buy start. Sounds like one of the better boxes out there.

Tinder Surprise

Just been browsing this thread and I must say well done all involved.

great to see a group purchase go so well and a few lads save a few bob.

boards.ie at its best!!

marcbrophy

My box is being delivered today!

Bought it solo on Thursday afternoon, and it shipped Friday at 4:30pm.
Fast service from TNT as I got the call this morning at 8:30 saying that they had my shipment. He even said he'd bring it to my workplace, as I told him no one would be home!

This was the free shipping too

GY A1

their quik shipping alright

upandcumming

I took Allyall's advice and ordered two last night with the DVB-T2 tuners and then two DVB-S2 tuners when they came back in stock this morning. I did not get any receipt from WeTek so I emailed in and cheekily asked if I could have all DVB-S2 tuners with the four boxes - and they did! Four DVB-S2 tuners for me! RESULT!

Zardoz

Only seeing this thread now as I was away for a while.
Anyone who bought this has gotten a great bargain ,its a really nice receiver .

I have one running Android and Enigma 2 (Pbnigma) from a micro sd card .
Pbnigma is the best Enigma 2 image and is really solid now ,they have improved it alot in recent months and most functions work well.
Its perfect for watching satellite tv ,Kodi seemed good in it too.
There is a seperate remote available for Enigma 2 for 10 euro off Wetek which is a good buy too but the Openelec remote might do the job,it looks similar.

I found the Openelec side of the unit very difficult to configure for watching tv , its quite tricky to setup the headend side of it .
Enigma 2 is much better for watching tv in my experience.

I'm half tempted to buy another one but I must stop buying receivers.

I'd say 12 would be got easy enough. I know it's Monday morning etc.. but..

I've just had an email from TNT informing me that our order is due to be picked up tomorrow so I'd imagine they should be with me then by Thursday or Friday. I'll post a further update once tracking details become available.

You actually placed the order???:eek: To hell with that, I bought myself a PS4 from Argos and booked a weekend in Kilkenny. You really gotta hand it to PayPal. So convenient

TitianGerm

Lads can't find the box you all are group buying in the thread. Could anyone link me to it ? I might be interested if were getting 12 together.

ronanc1000

I am interested should another 12 of us go with a group buy, sounds like this is the best box and its pre loaded I believe so no real hassle.

Edit: Just realised I said similar already on the same thread! Lol.

€53.99 + post or Parcel Motel.

If you took the delivery, then €53.99.

ecomac

I might be also interested in - 1pcs with S2 tuner

padair

Might be interested also with sat tuner

anotherjd

I could be interested also in one with DVB-S2 tuner.
The deal is suppose to be a blackfriday deal (ending 29th Nov), but the code still works at the moment on the site.

even if there are only 8 or 10 people interested it would be possible to order and get 27%(65.24), 32.5% (60.74e)
just not as good as 40% off.

lolliedog

I'd take a punt, with satellite tuner.
