Hi guy's. I have a TX2 android box with mobdro on it . Mobdro was running fine but lately every stream constantly stop/starts buffering every few seconds. I've reset the box reinstalled mobdro etc but no good. I really like how mobdro works how it streams individual tv shows etc. What are the best alternatives out there? Or a fix if anyone knows of one? Cheers.

Could be a bandwidth issue you've got? Run something like Speed Test on the Android box, see what it reports. Maybe your ISP is throttling Mobdro streams?

I use Mobdro quite often and it's been aright, it streams fine in China via my VPN.

I'm hitting 52mbps through a power line adapter. But even if i run an Ethernet cable straight from the router at 100mbps it still happens.

I wonder if your ISP is throttling or blocking the Mobdro streams then? Mobdro streams no problems for me, but I do have to use a VPN, because otherwise it's completely blocked here in China. Don't know of any streaming alternatives, other than what @Dannydet has already suggested. Perhaps you could try a VPN with it, I use ExpressVPN myself, for if your ISP is throttling or blocking it. A net neutrality issue? FWIW I did try Mobdro again just now, and it was fine.

Yeah, Tubi is good, especially because it's free and it operates similar to Netflix. There are plenty of other free apps that Firestick offers. Some of them are pretty convenient, but I so got used to Netflix, Hulu, and HBO Max that these are still main apps I use.

Still for those who love their machine and able to turn off mobile background data :)
 
UStream, Hotstar, Hulu, Netflix….

Tubi is again good

Tubi TV is an American-based free streaming service that is trying to compete with industry giants Netflix and Hulu.
