Hi all I’m looking for a good dedicated box for IPTV.
I have tried mag box 256 but not impressed I use enigma 2 at present but is crap at handling iptv.
I want a good spec box that can also record iptv no problem and have epg of course..
Been looking online for days and days and all boxes look and sound good from a sellers prospective but I would like to hear from the actual box users..the box used and platform for watching and recording iptv.
Would be nice to have a iptv box list with pros and cons etc....NO server talk..
I’m sure this would be very useful to other members also.
 
Anyone got any thoughts on this box.? Maxytec 5G plus.

I don’t think so had the informer hologram everything seemed correct..the regular portal for iptv worked okay though..
Only had a 24 hr test but was fine.
 
Look on the infomir home page for genuine retailers,Nearly all on the bay are clones
 
I find the biggest problem is that you research what you think is a good box only to find bad reviews..
I did like the mag 256 maybe try another type of mag 410 maybe..also I could do with a good stalker sub that won’t constantly let me down..my supplier gave me a test for stalker as I have multi room/device sub for e2 from them but no recording or epg..And I really want to be able to record..
 
Just purchased a Formuler S mini,Decided to go with this box as it runs both iptv and satellite and runs android 7 and mytvonline which is stalker and Xtream codes etc compatible..will give it a good test see what it’s ahout...get some test portals and try out the mytvonline that most seem to love.
Was also looking at the Dreamlink T1 plus and the Maxytec boxes..both though only run android 4.4 and would have some compatibility with new update apps I felt.

Mag just kept freezing and locking up especially on inner portal and got real hot..maybe just a one off thing but I weren’t happy and returned it.

Hi m8. I've played with most iptv devices. I love the firsestick and smart iptv. Works flawlessly and if you know what your doing then you can add in apps like terrarium. The mag box does exactly what it says on the tin. Plays iptv. I found them to work brilliant. I only prefer the firsestick as I can put more stuff on it. The mag box only plays what your server serves.

I was going to suggest a Formuler - not because I personally have much experience (I do have one, I just don't use it that much!) but one of our local IPTV suppliers swears by them, having recently dumped MAG's.
