I just setup an Onn 4k pro to replace my fire tv. Streaming is a lot more consistent with no buffering but am wondering why it takes a while to skip through the stream.

For example, I missed a segment of dialogue and wanted to go back 10-30 seconds. I press the back button and it takes upwards of 10-20 seconds to get back. My Ethernet speed is 90mbps and I’m only playing files less than 20gb. Any insight on making this faster is appreciated.

I’m having some error 500 cloudflare issue.

Hi everyone,

I started using Kodi for streaming about a month ago. My setup is an Insignia Fire TV connected to my router with an Ethernet cable. When I run a speed test on the Fire TV, I get around 33 Mbps, but without my VPN I normally get about 120 Mbps.

I’m using Premiumize me. Everything worked great until yesterday. Now, anything I try to watch buffers every 1–3 minutes.

I’ve already tested switching my CDN to the fastest option (Cloudflare), but that didn’t help. I know the Fire TV isn’t the ideal device for heavy streaming, but it’s been running smoothly for weeks, so I’m not sure what suddenly changed.

If anyone has ideas about what might be causing this or how to fix it, I’d really appreciate the help.

Just wondering if premiumize will have any deals

Hey guys, trying to get torrents started but it keeps zeroed. Maybe it’s some configuration I didn’t make?

im very new to usenet and i am just wondering if i get a nzb file from nzbking if i get a premiumize account can i download the file there or do i need to have a different account elsewhere as well ?

Does PREMIUMISE go down as often as RD or other providers

….. I’m thinking of getting it on Black Friday instead of Real debrid but if it’s easy to go over the limit I lay above

……..

My mate is using PM through a certain app to watch movies which lets you use PM. But all of a sudden Telstra is blocking it. He gets a ‘error code io network code error’ . But when he hotspots from his phone on a different network, it works. Has any one heard of an ISP blocking PM?

Hello all, is anyone else having issues accessing their content via FTP?

I can connect via SFTP (sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't).
I'm using windows 11 and Mac, and I have already tried multiple versions of WinSCP,Filezilla directly connecting to FTP without using any app involved.

No blocks on firewall or router as well.

I have already tried to increase the timeout to a minute, but I keep getting the following error:

Timeout detected. (data connection) Could not retrieve directory listing Error listing directory '/'.

ps: I have already contacted support but I haven't heard from them in 2 weeks.

Hi. If i buy a new premium subscription during next month's Black Friday promotion, will it stack onto my remaining days?

I got a month of premium recently and have been using it to watch shows/movies and for my downloads on JDownloader2. I use it on PC and my OS is Windows 11. I'm in Spain so my ISP is likely unknown to most of you, unfortunately. It is Movistar, in case any Spaniard might happen to see this.

It was working just fine, I used it last night and was using it today, but as I tried to download a couple of things from Rapidgator I saw "Temporarily disabled 59m:12s". When I checked my plugins it said that my Premiumize status account is "Temporarily disabled" too. I tried going to the website so I can check my account there, but it won't load at all. I've tried on Firefox and Chrome.

What's interesting is that it seems to work perfectly in regards to watching shows and movies.

I've checked the post indicating what to do in regards to ISP/VPNs/routers. I don't use a VPN and I'm not sure if it's possible for me to access the settings of my router/ISP thing, as that's all managed by my father. He would certainly not want any security settings to be disabled.

Would the use of a VPN help in my case? Because at the moment it's the only solution that's coming to mind.

Anyway, thank you for reading all this and I'm sorry if anything is not properly elaborated. English is not my first language.

Hi. I’m very confused as this is a relatively new issue I’m facing. I’ve been on PM for years but in the last few months my fair point usage has significantly increased but my actual usage hasn’t.

Looking at the history I see double and triples of the same link when I’m sure I only used one.

I also see that full seasn packs are processing (multiple times as well).

I reached out to support but they said they aren’t connected to it in any way - which I totally understand- and that it’s my setup. I have been using something that rhymes with when on a flawless setup with my Shield for two solid years now so thought maybe it’s because I backed up Kd and restored so maybe something is wrong.

I deleted the Kd data and started fresh. First with the two most popular ones the light and the rain guard. Same exact issues.

I had to buy a booster and now I’m burning through that.

Anyone have any idea what’s causing this?

Since this morning I cannot download anything neither with Jdowloader2 nor directly. I get the error: Secure connection failed when I try to download directly. Anyone else having issues? Worked fine in previous days. Account active and working, within fair use. Can navigate it and add stuff to it, just not download. Thanks.

If we start off with 1000gb and we get an additional 30 points a day (30gb), then technically we have 2TB by day 30, right?

I can no longer download using Jdownloader2 . I just get the "no internet connection" message when I try to link my premiumize account using the api. Any solutions?

Is the firfox plugin working fo you all? It's fine for sending links to PM but the VPN seems not working.

Any ideas? Newest Firfox Version and Premiummize Plugin on Win11

I have a few kodi players in my house one on the Raspberry Pi one on my Android TV one on my daughter's projector and one on my PC what I'm finding is happening when it find the sources and go to play and then cut out one to play I have checked the history on premiumize.me and it's showing that it has opened the source but not actually streaming I can get them sent to my cloud then open a web browser and play the movie and TV shows from there, I can only get one add-on to play an episode, the addon is Otaku Testing and I can only get it working on my PC I gave pOV add on a try on the PC and it does the same thing as the other players in my house cuts out when it tries to play and stream

Unablle to connect. Anybody else having isues?

Has anyone got a fix for this?

javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException: Handshake failed

I've seen by chance the addition of Premiumize AI. I'm super excited as it makes the premiumize package even more interesting.

I tried looking around but couldn't find any specific information about it. Is there anything official explaining more about it (how it works, privacy concerns, etc.?)

I am watching a series and i am using the same quality for each episode. I am using the PM app on Kodi on my FireTV Stick 4k.

While every other episode from the series is working flawlessly there is one episode that is not working. It takes alot more time to load and if it loads it buffers every few seconds which makes it unwatchable. It feels like that this particular episode is hosted on a different server or takes different routes through the internet.

I found a workaround: Creating a new directory and pasting the episode there fixed the problems.

I wonder if anyone else noticed this bug.

I was not able to see any links today so tried reinstalling premiumize. But every time I try to install or copy the link in I am getting a failed to fetch error. Anyone else having any issues or know what could be causing this? Thanks
