I do 90% of my TV watching with local content on kodi, the other 10% is live sports. I know the websites and they work very well (as long as you have an adblocker). My issue is - why is it so much worse on kodi using The Crew or Mad Titan Sports? The streams on those addons are nowhere near as reliable as the streams on the popular websites.

Half of the links on those addons do not work at all, 25% will load and constantly buffer to the point where it is unusable, and the final 25% are OK but will still buffer much more than the websites and occasionally just stop completely and you have to click on it to start it again.

Why are the websites so much better? I want to watch these games on my big TV with my home theater speakers, not on my laptop. And I don’t want to fuss with plugging my laptop in for every game. Has anybody found a way to cast a Linux computer to kodi? Or are there better addons that I just haven’t found?

    Something about buying and using a Google device doesn’t sit right with me but you may be right, this may be the best solution.
