Fantastic.For those,like me, that don't know the fine details: What exactly do the products mentioned above do, where do you get them, how do you install without a "Gregg " and finally...what ELSE do you need to make this system work. (I say that bc my internet service is part of a building wide service and wondering if that will have an affect on things. )TIA.
John, I assume you have a TV with a HDMI plug, and you have internet. This setup does not affect your internet service. Think of it as Youtube on steroids.
All you need to do is buy a Firestick, preferably the 4K one. They are available on Amazon and probably on EBAY too, maybe some other sites as well.
When you plug it in, all you have to do is follow the on screen instructions. It does everything for you. That will get you up and running with tons of content.
Now, Some people like to subscribe to a streaming service to get channels like you see on many cable boxes. They all offer much more content than the Firestick alone delivers.
There are tons of sources for streaming services; I have gone through 6 of them. Lots of trial and error, too many headaches. There is also a lot of disparity between costs and content available.
Most of the streaming suppliers will treat you like you're a hardened geek who knows how everything works, and offer little or no customer service at all.
I finally found Greg, and made the switch from another service. It was like switching from a go-kart to a Rolls Royce. His service has more channels than any of the other services I've used, and his dedication to customer service is second to none. He will literally walk you through step by step and take as much time as you need to make sure you get up and running perfectly. He is also the most economical option.
Watch the video Bob posted to see how Tivimate is installed. Most users feel Tivimate is the best of the bunch, and I feel that way too.
While the video may leave you with some questions, Greg will answer every one you have and walk you through the entire process (which isn't very much, btw).
