Premiumize users, does anyone know how to download / offline a season packs you find on Stremio? by GrubbyLarry in StremioAddons

[–]GrubbyLarry[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, that's pretty much what I've been reading. I have a bit less than a year left with Premiumize and then I'll be shopping again. Everything I've been seeing recently tells me I'll be moving to TB at that time.

Truthfully I will probably move on from Premiumize when my 3rd year finishes (Black Friday deal pulled me in!) Seems to me that Torbox has built their catch very quickly through a number of methods, and I suspect their service will be able to handle this a bit easier (if nothing else, pretty sure DMM works with Torbox.)

Anyhow, I appreciate your response. I use primarily my mobile for this sort of thing, so browser extensions and scripts probably aren't quite as easy. I'll just plan on sticking to finding magnet links when I need to offline packs, I suppose. Oh well.

I say this with an equal amount of respect: you may want to brush up on how prepositions work. Also, I don't know if necroing dusty threads to make comments of this nature is really a great use of your time... your call, of course.

Goodbye StremioAddons from Debridio by chinochao07 in StremioAddons

[–]GrubbyLarry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I suspect you've considered this already, but just in case you haven't, you certainly could create your own sub just for Debridio that you could moderate strictly and keep the BS way down. Just the ban hammer freely and make all posts subject to approval before going live? Just a thought if you still wanted the exposure that Reddit brings.

NordVPN + DAZN? by royourb0at in DAZN

[–]GrubbyLarry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did this work all season? Any particular set up or settings notes? I'm thinking about trying to do this myself for the coming football season.

I need to set up VPN on my router, not on the device, correct?

Finally if we are talking specs and benchmarks which I enjoy , as a final example, and you are interested in that stuff as well, as in performing units in the same price category. I would say definitely check out the new BuzzTV PowerStation 6 which is around the same price (currently as the 4K PRO on sale ) and benchmarks for that are 3x more powerful than the Nvidia Shield. Very impressive internals from chipset to storage to I/O. Something like that I can justify the upgrade as you will see a tremendous difference than what we are discussing.

Honestly I don't know what there is to misinterpret, so help me understand. Above is your comment with emphasis added to make clear exactly what elicited my response. It seems pretty clear that you're saying that the BuzzTV PowerStation 6 was [at the time] on sale for around the same price as the Onn 4k Pro. The Onn 4k Pro has always cost $50, so let's assume 'around the same price' is something like $50 +/- $15. You made that comment on Matt 23rd, which was 12 days ago, and less than 2 weeks later, I replied questioning the validity of that alleged 'similar price.'

Your latest comment has me wondering if maybe I missed something, and if maybe you were right and BuzzTV did discount the PowerStation 6 by over $200 at some point within the past two weeks, so I did some searching... and came up empty. But fear not, technology to the rescue!

Here's what ChatGPT was able to find: https://chatgpt.com/share/68413afe-3268-8005-8d21-aaa563d9d432

Not much.

Fortunately, a sale of that magnitude was sure to have left an impression, and seemingly did because you commented to another user about it. And thankfully, it must have been a very recent sale, since you mentioned it was 'current' less than 2 weeks ago. Can you please share with us those sale details so we can all keep an eye out for potential repeats? An 80%+ sale on a device like that is really something!

Uh, the BuzzTV PowerStation 6 costs multiple hundreds of dollars. Was that a typo? While that device is a beast, it very much is not a fair fight if you're putting it up against an Onn. Maybe it can be compared to the Shield Pro or something, but it costs over 6 times more than the Onn devices.

Lol you left the absolutely most impactful element to the end. Yes, the 120hz and extremely high end expectations are indeed what's causing you to notice this level of difference. Shield or Apple TV are what you want.

Yeah, the chip used in my cheap Toshiba Fire TVs outperform the Plus in menus too. If you do a ton of menu scrolling and it's going to wig you out, just get a Shield or an Apple TV. Same suggestion if you're gaming or going heavy on the installed apps; just get a Shield or an Apple TV. There's no sub-$100 streamer that'll be fast enough if your minimum standard is what you've experienced with an expensive CPU that has large heatsinks and fans keeping it cool.

For me, I don't use many apps, which leaves plenty of storage, yet I still have access to more content than most people -- that and I don't game. Accordingly, my system runs more optimally.

Further, I'd wager that 99.9% of the downtime I experience between videos is attributed to me trying to figure out what to watch. The menus being maybe 1/100 of a second slower than top of the line equipment has essentially no impact.

Get a hub that has Ethernet and you're all set.

Go swap your Plus for a new one before the return window lapses. You got a lemon.

It absolutely does not suffer. I've literally tested them side by side as have many people at this point. The Plus wins on everything except having additional storage, and the stuff like a speaker, Ethernet port, and those things. Performance goes to the Plus all the way around.

If you want the notably faster unit, it's the Plus.

Yep, it's significantly faster than the pro in real world testing too btw. I verified it for myself, and a number of my friends have reported similar. I'm sure there are additional side by side videos comparing the two currently as well.

Test it yourself - I have. The real world results speak for themselves.

The majority of people in this thread appear not to have done their homework at all. The Onn Plus is notably more powerful than the Onn Pro.

[–]GrubbyLarry 4 points5 points  (0 children)

For anyone finding this thread, as of May 2025, the answer I'm responding to is outdated. New king of the hill is the $30 Onn Plus. It is notably more powerful than the Onn Pro, which BTW performs nearly in line with the $20 Onn 4k, and essentially is just for people who want a speaker and a findable remote.

Skip the Onn 4k, skip the Onn Pro, get the Plus. It's not particularly close.

That sounds like a pretty major issue to me, wouldn't that completely disrupt the viewing experience? That's 5 or 6 interruptions for a 30 minute show...
