Ola TV plus you need to download kshaw and ludio players for it to work.
Tile V100 is good.

Tried to get Ola tv today.

Followed the on line guide to load Ola tv app onto Firestick plus players but didn’t seem to work. Deleted everything and will give it another try tomorrow.

If anyone has a link giving details of how to download please post.

I “googled” installing OLA TV on firestick and followed this guide

https://www.firesticktricks.com/ola-tv- ... stick.html

However; after an hour or so gave up. Could be the links in guide are outdated. Hence asking if anyone had better guide/info.

Or alternatively other suggestions for apps to use.

Cheers.

To get Ola, Kshaw, and Ludio player.
First go to Google play store and get Downloader
Use code 92769 for Dr Venure website
All Apk's are available there.

Same with me. I can get downloader on firestick, however Ola tv downloads but does not install after downloading the other two apps required.

Will give it another go.

Long winded route which in sure is unnecessary but loaded for me.
I got the Ola app from APK time via downloader. All the players are there . However they have updates and when you load them and then play Ola TV .. they say download the new versions which you do but because you have the old ones there they won't over write them. Work around was to load the Ola app . Then click on any tile. Might as well try v100 which is way down on the list . Click on it and wait a few seconds. Then it asks to load both players from a prompt. Drove me mad. However I find the app no better than any other. Still buffers but free so ......hey ho

Finally got Ola TV downloaded on firestick after using Google to find other links and instructions.

The app comes up with lots of OLA TV links, so firstly you have to keep trying to see which link works. Once you find a working link then there are a couple of options for tv/movies along the top bar. Then you have to search thro multitude of countries. Tried the U.K. link didn’t work. Tried an Arabic link which worked. Managed to find BEIN SPORTS U.K. links which also worked.

Overall for me it’s a bit to long winded and hit and miss to find a link and search for tv, movies, sport etc. Will leave it loaded on firestick as a back up.

Maybe there is better, easier to install/use available?

Well done on getting it to work its not easy
Yes you have to search the links as the uk ones don't work that well.
Once you find a link that works perfect remember the number and just use that one.
I found one that gives me all sky programs + sports and films all the English channels
Bein sports and all the USA channels plus more.
They are out there you just got to find them
I'm leaving now to go find myself....if I arrive before I get back, please ask me to wait!

Hate to be a doom monger but if you are watching sport there is a high probability that it will buffer because many of the links cannot cope with the demand at peak times. I only watch Moto GP but in the end had to go to the expense of paying for BT Sport as any other app be it Mobdro, RedBox or many others I tried were so bad when the race started that it was unwatchable. You may find it is OK and I hope so but forewarned and all that.

Except if the sport is on ITV, which is complete rubbish. Have always had to find alternative when trying to watch major rugby games on ITV. It's not internet here as BBC plays great, as does Amazon Prime.

If you get the proper legal BBC iplayer as you do through a DNS then it will be ok it is the pirate apps that don't have sufficient band width to cope with demand that is the problem.

Another pleasant hour playing with Ola TV.

Firstly it’s still a bit of a faff to find a working link, then find a working stream for whatever you want to watch. As there is no guide to what is being shown it is a bit pot luck. I have gone onto Arabic channels and found Bein Sports channels in English.

However; movies are listed and plenty of them to search thro although not by categories.

I will probably keep it loaded on the firestick.

V100 is good and also 1235. Once you find a link that works with your TV channel you want, you can put it in favourites by long hold on ok button. You can then go straight to Kshaw and watch it a bit more reliably from there. There are also a couple of Facebook groups you can join, which can help finding good links.

Best thing is to pay for a subscription IPTV rather than all these APKS that are less than ideal on the whole.
