Off Topic TV set-up for relaxing viewing

I pay for Virgin like and it's ridiculous how many channels show absolute ****e. The only live TV I watch is sport, really should just get rid really

 

The used to be for watching good TV like beadles about and bottom, but then it was all ruined by pop idol and big brother, so basically only sad ****s use them now

 

Aye the sports all it's worth having for, but imo even that's been getting steadily worse. The premier league was once end to end and exciting, but now it lives on a false reputation.. Its ****ing dull.. European styles have dominated for years now.. Slow boring passing around doing **** all with the occasional goal.

 

****ing VAR and head injuries have spiked it even further.

It's stop **** start from the 1st minute to the last.. It never flows its ****ing ****e.

 

betamax

 

Everyone should've kept them.. Much better than VHS..

 

I've got BT Sport, it's great for MMA.

 

I've never got into mma for whatever reason.. I watch everything illegally these days... Pictures not great on some occasions, but it's free and I'm not in Saudi Arabia, so I think it's fine

 

55" Bush 4k jobby mainly used with an xbox one x, got kodi on there and a decent build so get all my movies and footy and pretty much anything else for nada, also got Amazon, netflix and the entertainment package on now tv/sky.

Been thinking of trying IPTV though recently, prices are cheap af and all I hear is great things about it. Anyone else got or tried any IPTV?

Yeah I have IPTV, the 1 I used doesn't take new people because they've been getting grassed but it's quality, I expect most will be similar quality. Watch all the boxing so save a fortune on that alone

 

So you're the reason for the delay in the takeover

 

Agree with this as do my kids.

We were just talking earlier tonight about tv programmes that you look forward to seeing each week. At the moment, none. When I was younger there were loads of them from Morecambe and Wise, Yes Minister, Red Dwarf etc.

Set up is a 43” Samsung not wall mounted at about £539 in January this year. Lights down low watching a good movie at the weekend with either a good wine or a decent whisky or rum. Last weekend was a complete failure though.

England cricket. Lost.

England rugby union. Lost.

NUFC. Lost.

Not even a good drink could save that weekend.

 

Quiet.

He’s still on Betamax.

A work colleague mentioned the sporting defeats last weekend, he added newcastle Falcons losing as well. Mind, the France Wales game was a classic!

 

Ben and Sucky are joint top of the pops with their 55". Heed has a little Dickie bird powering his JVC Betamax while Jim has never heard of TV. Chippy is still under the bed sheets, shining his torch at his iPhone 11.

 

Ta bro
Can I ask how long you've used it for?

 

About 3 years I think. Sometimes with the boxing it can be a bit laggy if it's a big fight, I assume because so many people are trying to watch? But in the 3 years or so I've had it I've only twice given up and paid for the fight because of the lagging (more because they were fights I was scared to miss rather than it being unwatchable), it's spot on 95% of the time. And all the football too (before all games were televised) are on there

 

Nice, cheers mate.

 

No it's only an issue in Saudi Arabia in England its not a problem
