I have a firestick and Kodi app.

Been using it for months and love it.

Exodus is my favorite add on and it is excellent.

What the best sports add on?

I tried sportsdevil but can't get it to broadcast anything live. No links work.

Any others that work?

I think I used the castaway app with the dimsports link most of baseball season last year. The feeds aren't always great quality.

Pro sport
Cast away

To be honest, I don't advertise live streaming sports or tv when I sell it to someone. I tell them it's possible, but hit and miss on quality.

Get PlayStation vue, antenna and kodi with proper add ons and you should be set to watch what you want.

Sportsdevil works 90% of the time but you need to keep it updated. Until recently you had to manually download and re-install sportsdevil to update it. But Fusion has added it to their addon collection and once you install from there, it updates automatically. The latest version is dated 12.31.16. And you wont find HD quality streams.....so its good for a slower sport like baseball but basketball not so much. Football is ok if it is a game you are only mildly interested in. I always get SlingTV during football season but cancel it after LSU is done.

That happens. You have try several streams before you find a good one. It takes a little perseverance.

In my experience, Kodi works great as a DVR replacement, but is not a replacement for live tv. The streams are almost always lower quality and it takes a lot of searching to find anything even decent. Maybe others are having better experiences, but I don't recommend it at all if you are trying to watch live TV on a regular basis.

Does anyone know of an adddon that allows you to watch concerts? I know YouTube. But I'm curious if there is a collection of concerts you can watch? I did a quick Reddit search and I saw there was something for Phish fans. TIA

People on here seem to not like it but I have been doing Kodi for a few years and I like putting builds on the box. Right now I run SPINZTV and I love it. Sure I could put all the add-ons myself but I can deal with the extra fluff for the ease of access.

You can use the Titanium add on which has the SportsDevil addin already updated. Here's a youtube video on how to install it on a FireStick.

Trakt is probably the best way to manage it.

This is hit or miss. Of course, Trakt is hit or miss with finding the right streams for the right show (mostly hit).
