I have Kodi installed onto a UK purchased Amazon stick, does anyone know if Kodi works in Spain?  If so do I just plug it into my TV in Spain?

We have kodi installed on a laptop, most 2017 films freeze about half way through, anything else is ok and we get the soaps and tv box sets, tried watching the boxing fight last Saturday and got to about round 8 and froze

Hi Lorna,

Many thanks for your response.  We have Kodi on an Amazon Firestick to plug into the TV, not sure if it work but will give it a try.

Thanks

The Kodi features should work but not the Amazon and UK TV catch up services that aren't within the Kodi software.

Hi Kodi

Is very good whilst it works, but the apps have to be updated on a regular basis plus they go down, also your Free To Air Channels on Film On are now 15 pounds a month so, now NOT FREE. You would be better off off with a paid system which has everything and after after initial purchase of receiver the is still the same as paying for Film On and less than paying the re-broadcasters my mum always said you get nothing for free.

In the uk the average householder pay's sky 50 per month and some as high as 110 a month. Kodi is being attacked by Sky Bt etc beware.

Hi we have a Kodi Box and worked fine for about three weeks then suddenly we could not tune it in no films nothing as one of the previous contributors has said that BT SKY are blocking this is maybe why ours is not working back in Pinoso next week we will try again nightmare if anyone can recommend an alternative it would help.

We brought a fully loaded firestick in the UK a few years ago and it never worked but now we are in Spain the same one  works brilliant for Movies, box sets and TV series like Line of Duty etc but no LIVE  UK TV so I am not sure why you don't still get the rest, we watch everything through EXIDUS, have you got this add on? From the beginning of this month we stopped getting live TV from filmon if we still want it we have to pay monthly fee, but it still lets us record free for up to 1 hour each between our two email addresses on our computers, as soon as we watch any thing we delete. Hope you get sorted.
