The month account I got on g2g gives me 6 I've never actually tried trying them other than the default to see if it makes a difference.

I'll see how it goes and consider getting a backup account because my EVERUP app I keep banging on about for cheap gift cards means the savings across a 1 month for grocery shopping means that'll pay for all of my IPTV shananigans.

That's interesting. Renewals via g2g. Decent.

When I was looking who to go with there were links to the sellers that specifically said for renewals only so I believe the same exact details will be kept and the same price as normal.

I'll likely try a different seller next time as I made a mistake with my choice and it took 20hrs to deliver and others are instant.

They were very helpful when I bought through a different account. They linked my old sub with a 6 month renewal they did not have to do

I think I'll be using your same seller on 29/12 when this expires on g2g again as long as it's instant.

Dads happy with his IPTV box and service, it takes a long time to explain it all though!

I'm now on the lookout for a Google TV android box as I'm finding my Firestick 4K 8GB in the bedroom is running out of memory and I only have Tivimate. NordVPN, Downloader and X-plorer file manager installed on it and can't uninstall anything else, so it's bye bye Firestick 8GB and I will move the Max with 16GB into the bedroom and replace the living room box.

I'm keeping it simple so I don't want a mini pc, so I'm considering the Thomson Streaming Box Plus 270uk, which has 32GB and is Google TV, just waiting for the price to come down as I feel I don't want to pay £90 just for IPTV access.

I really like this Thomson Streaming Box 270UK Google TV box, it's super snappy, I didn't have to side load any of the apps I use as they're all available on the Google Play Store and I've just found out about the Projective Launcher and so far that is great in getting rid of all the crap I don't need.

The apps I have installed are Tivimate for my IPTV, NordVPN, X-Plorer File Manager, YouTube and Prime Video so far.

EPGenius is great for populating blank spaces on EPGs.

Google suggests this isn't safe to use anymore, thoughts?

As per the dev notes

Quote:

SmartTube version 30.56 is the first release built by the uncompromised machine and with the new digital signature
So that and later versions are fine.

Projectivy launcher for Google TV and android boxes is really nice, Tivimate is also considered to be the best TVGuide and Premium lifetime only costs £30 for 5 devices.
