Having a roku is great but the limited hulu+ is a killer. would it be possible to create a sideloaded hulu app that could play all web content to install on your roku box?
i know there was a hacked flash for my android phone to access full hulu from the browser which was awsome.
I am no programmer but was just wondering the possibilities.
We have a gym with Technogym Equipment and are located in the US. We have been asking for Technogym to add the US Streaming APPs like Youtube TV, Hulu, Sling TV, etc to their APP Store. To date they have not done that. Their IPTV and TV APP do not work well in our location. As a European company they have not made US APPs their priority.
Unity APP and Hardware is an Android Tablet device with Android 5. The Technogym APP store has Netflix and Youtube. They work fine.
Is there anyone on the forum that has experience with the Technogym Hardware and done any side loading of APPs? How would we go about loading Youtube TV? What issues if any would we run in to with the account data?
Any help would be appreciated.

I am looking to ditch my cable TV. I don't want to pay the monthly $90+ for a lousy selection of channels, most of which we either don't watch or that we can stream live online. I watch a lot of pro sports and I am able to stream them from various websites free.
Can anyone suggest how to best set up our 3 household TVs - and with what equipment so that I can make the transition to getting rid of our cable a reality? Currently we simply use HDMI lines to connect a laptop or phone to a TV to stream whatever we want on a big screen. Would it be best to designate 1 device for each TV in order to stream whatever we wish to stream? Would it be best to buy an Amazon fire stick or cube? Or what about a Roku? Apple TV or Google Chromecast?
No idea how to best sort this out. I do know that there are some very inexpensive Internet cable option available these days. For example: XXX
Please advise if you can to assist with this transition. THANKS!
I'd say get an Android TV device like Chromecast with Google TV or those Onn Tv boxes from Walmart for each TV. Since they're just android at the core (fire tv is also but they don't have gapps) you can do a lot more with them and you usually get the extra Chromecast functionality. If you have OTA TV channels nearby, you can get a USB TV tuner and hook it up to a computer or raspberry pi with Plex installed and it'll let you access and record shows from any device with Plex. You'll need to get Plex pass but it's not too expensive. (Not an ad for Plex I just use and like it a lot)

I haven't had cable since I lived at home with my parents. I use Netflix, Disney+, and Hulu (through Spotify). I also use the below mentioned setup.
My setup (which I don't condone unless you're a scumbag) is a Raspberry Pi running a Plex server in Docker, connected to an external 8TB HDD. I then have a Nvidia Shield connected to my living room TV and use this to stream all the media I have downloaded on my Plex server. The cool thing about Plex is that you can also connect to your server with phones, tablets, laptops, Firesticks, Rokus, etc. You can also connect to it remotely; I can stream my home server to my work laptop and watch all the Media. With Plex you can also share your "Library" with friends/family. You can create an account for them and give them access.
I don't use Cable TV any more complete on Online streaming for all of my devices.
There is always the Tivimate app on CCwGTV, combined with a (preferably legal) lPTV provider of your choice.
(I normally don't condone piracy, but if you are a person in the world with very limited income, and TV is one of the few things that gives you happiness in tough times of your life, for example, I'd understand why one would do it when the global wealth has been redistributed to the wealthy 1% of the 1%...)
Good luck finding a solution that works out for you.
I only use internet to watch the TV and never used the cable

Have a look at an Android streaming box or as you said a Firestick 4k Max.
Install Kodi and visit https://www.matthuisman.nz/
Matt Huisman is a legend for what he brings the IPTV community. All my TV is via the internet and I couldn't function without Matt's awesome work.
A good place to start anyway.
I'd start with a Chromecast w/Google TV or a NV Shield. If you have a smart TV, it may be OK on its own (my Sony 900e is getting pretty slow compared to an external Chromecast). Easiest solution is YouTubeTV, but the price per month keeps going up. I dropped it when it went above $50/month. I have Prime, Netflix, Peacock, etc

My suggestion as well, however streaming from most iptv providers ISNT legal period. They stream illegally to paying people. Buying Tv from the source such as Comcast or Spectrum etc is the only truely legal way of doing so.
Hi All, hoping someone can assist.
I just grabbed a 43inch TCL Google TV.
For the fact it has Google TV as it’s OS so I can easily sideload apps etc.
I typical use a Firestick with a smart dns provider to use my foreign country apps versus where I’m based .. e.g use iPlayer, or Hulu etc.
On this new TV I’ve updated the DNS address, can log into the apps, however it won’t let me play anything as the dns isn’t being detected correctly (apps still think I’m right where I’m sitting in a restricted geo fenced country).
If I add DNS to router level then I can get Hulu to work.
Any idea why the TV powered by Google TV won’t take the dns even though it’s in the settings ?
I think the problem will be fixed when you go into Google TV's own settings to enable playback
drive mad
Hi
I looking for an Android box to stream Netflix, Amazon, Zattoo and play content from my NAS in 4k on my offline TV.
I also want root access for adblock and others, so I guess I need magisk.
Is there any recommendation for a box available in europe?
Thanks a lot !!!
