Heres the rest of the story! I watch Kodi on a Hisense Android tv, and my HP PC. I use the nordVPN, and do have real debrid, but all my installed TV series and Movie addons also provide free links in case real debrid goes down. I have openwizard maintence set to auto. I also have the a4k subtitles. I use centurylink for interned with a max of 70 mbps. I try to keep my tv not to go below 1.5 gb available storage. I use the default estuary skin on kodi, I never use a build.

Take the Mad Titan URL and plug it in Tivimate. I don’t see why that wouldn’t work. But I have no interest in testing it out for you, sorry.
Builds are easy and have lots of add-ons, but also take up a lot of unnecessary space. I would imagine one person has only a few add-ons they use consistently, as you mention above. What do you do for a plan B if you sit down to watch a ball game and it either won’t load, or is buffering?
I just find it on another addon with the game. It’s really not that complicated. I get better results on my PC, than my Android TV. But both are decent. I can honestly say, I have watched all the Chiefs, Royals, Coyotes, Jayhawks and Blackcats (efl, championship league) that I have wanted to watch.

I give a lot of credit to a guy who can make Kodi work like you do. Like I’ve said here before Kodi to me reminds me of my dad’s old model A John Deere tractor that had to start by hand very tinkerous damn machine. The new skin unique on Kody made it look a lot better it seems to work a little bit better. With streamio it starts up and gets a program going right away. Kodi take a while. But Im new and Kodi is for guys like u who know to make it work for them! 
i’m not saying that kodi doesn’t have it’s issues. I don’t know anything about stremio, but I understand it’s very good. But I have had my share of iptv subs, and apparently I don’t know the secret of getting a good one, because all mine have sucked. And so many hoops to jump through to get a good one. I guess my standards are too low, but I know what I like and I guess contrary to popular belief on this site, that happens to be Kodi. I also want to congradulate you guys that have found your way to an acceptable iptv. I’m happy for you.

If you are interested in having a look at what I consider to be the best IPTV I’ve found, so far, then I can send you a link to have a look. I’m glad that we can all have our likes and dislikes and still find common ground. Perhaps I can help change your mind about IPTV. That is if you are willing to try, or want to.

Tico259, is there a way to use Kodi that is buffer free. Thanks
Yup, lots of variables tho.
When encountering buffering please take a look here, lots of info.
As Dracoo’s guides will mention, the most effective way to remove buffering from Kodi is to add a premium service like Real Debrid to the VOD portion of Kodi’s add-ons. If you are asking more specifically about the free streaming services and the free IPTV within Kodi, it normally is pretty hit and miss. @Tico259 may have some tips to help that portion, I just didn’t know which way you were heading with your question.
Thanks, l should have stated my biggest issue is live sports, no payed subscriptions! I can’t always get network TV OTA in my aera. I know about Real Debrid but, I’m still concerned about it buffering as well. So why spend the money!
To clarify, Real Debrid won’t help live tv/sports. VOD only, but does a fantastic job. We normally recommend looking into an IPTV service for big sports fans and those that watch live tv a lot.

it seems since the last update to version 20.1, Kodi will buffer when watching either movies or TV shows. Clearing cache does not improve this issue. I use IPVanish as my VPN.
Is the a fix for the buffering?
