johnnyboy Posted 11 March, 2015 Posted 11 March, 2015 Just tried to log on to sportnationhd to watch Chelsea psg and it seems to be gone ! Tried on chrome and ie and got the same result page not found message . I know a few others have elite memberships on here and was wondering if they have any way of contacting the site admin on there ? Luckily I only got a 6 month subscription , but was one of the most reliable streaming services out there
bognor regis pete Posted 11 March, 2015 Posted 11 March, 2015 my six months was just about too end, be a shame if it's gone for good
hypochondriac Posted 11 March, 2015 Posted 11 March, 2015 You Won't Be Able To Access The Site Via SportsNationhd.tv from next week Hey Guys Our domain SportsNationHD.TV is nearly expiring so from next week you won't be able to access the site via http://www.sportsnationhd.tv anymore. Make sure you have bookmarked our new domain SportsMania.eu as you will only be able to access the site via that domain name from next week onwards. Thanks Guys
johnnyboy Posted 11 March, 2015 Author Posted 11 March, 2015 Cheers Hypo! every page I went to was 'page not known ' time to update my bookmarks !!
jasonb Posted 11 March, 2015 Posted 11 March, 2015 I use the service on xbmc and noticed when I made a fresh install that the repo was now bundled with the yid repos and called SportsMania. I hadn't figured that the change was due to domain registration expiring. Thanks for heads-up
saintsladthrough Posted 11 March, 2015 Posted 11 March, 2015 They changed domains to sportsmania.eu and i found this thread http://sportsmania.eu/showthread.php?1606-You-Won-t-Be-Able-To-Access-The-Site-Via-SportsNationhd-tv-from-next-week
nta786 Posted 11 March, 2015 Posted 11 March, 2015 Guys, 'sportsnationhd' is now known as sportsmania. As they've changed their domain name, their old one won't work. http://sportsmania.eu/view.php?pg=streams ^^ This is the new link- make sure you save this on your bookmarks! Obviously, the reliability and quality of service is still amazing! So, just to confirm, they have not gone away lol, just a simple website name change
mcjwills Posted 11 March, 2015 Posted 11 March, 2015 You will also need to delete the addon in Kodi and put a new one on if you subscribe via that method.
cellone Posted 11 March, 2015 Posted 11 March, 2015 They changed weeks ago. Goats and I were taking the p out of the new name. keep up and keep dry.
jasonb Posted 12 March, 2015 Posted 12 March, 2015 If you install using the yid repo the addon auto updates. Saves any messing about
TUS Posted 12 March, 2015 Posted 12 March, 2015 Has anyone integrated their Kodi addon with OnTapp.TV? I use Offside Streams at the moment, mainly because it is easily integrated.
saintwiz Posted 17 March, 2015 Posted 17 March, 2015 Yup It does some of the time. Spent 15 mins on chat to them to get it working. When it did it was excellent. Gone again now. Strange.
hutch Posted 17 March, 2015 Posted 17 March, 2015 Almost all sources are a bit unpredictable. Best to have more than one for each application, servers often go down for maintenance.
saintwiz Posted 17 March, 2015 Posted 17 March, 2015 Almost all sources are a bit unpredictable. Best to have more than one for each application, servers often go down for maintenance. Really good quality with no lag. Just getting started seemed the problem.
Mr Dad Posted 17 March, 2015 Posted 17 March, 2015 I use SportMania on a Rpi which some users on here recommended and helped me set up. Thanks to jasonb above, I've now uninstalled and reinstalled via yid repo (see sportsmani site for instructions) so it should update automatically. They update the xmbc add-on quite often for bug fixes and additional features so its convenient that it now should happen without me checking the SM site often and downloading zips etc. Cheers jasonb!
shirleysfc Posted 1 May, 2015 Posted 1 May, 2015 Is SportsMania still working for match streaming or has it gone the same way as the Kodi/NBC addon?
Goatboy Posted 1 May, 2015 Posted 1 May, 2015 Is SportsMania still working for match streaming or has it gone the same way as the Kodi/NBC addon? All good in the hood.
Pat from Poole Posted 1 May, 2015 Posted 1 May, 2015 Think they're showing the Mayweather - Pacquiao fight tomorrow night as well. When it's working well, Sports Mania is really good. Though I do find I sometimes have to use NBC and Offside Streams as back-ups.
Goatboy Posted 1 May, 2015 Posted 1 May, 2015 (edited) Goaty's S&M tips: 1. Don't leave setting up your streaming until 30 seconds before kick off. 2. Use wires. I know it's not possible for everyone but connecting to your router via an ethernet cable either directly (ideally) or via a power line networking adapter, is much more stable than relying on wifi. 3. Clear caches and close all other tabs. 4. There are sometimes several streams for a particular game/event on SM. Find the one that works best for you. 5. if there is an event coming up that you would like to see then ask Willow (site owner) if he can stream it. Give him at least a few days notice and he will usually oblige if at all possible. 6. The HD streams are quite demanding of your hardware. If your laptop is 15 years old it is probably not the stream that is laggy. 7. If you are still having problems then use the live support button or chat box to contact an admin. They are very helpful. 8. Say hello in the chat box. Loads of Saints fans in there usually! 9. If you have a smart tv linked to your router, go to SM in your tv browser, log on to site as normal, watch live streaming in HD on your massive tv;) NB I am not connected in any way to the site. Just think it's great vfm. Edited 1 May, 2015 by Goatboy forgot 9.
mcjwills Posted 1 May, 2015 Posted 1 May, 2015 Goat boy think there is some man love for Sportsmania.eu ?
Goatboy Posted 1 May, 2015 Posted 1 May, 2015 Goat boy think there is some man love for Sportsmania.eu Less than £1 per week to watch all football, boxing, whatever. What's not to love?
Batman Posted 1 May, 2015 Posted 1 May, 2015 it is very good. 95% of the time best site yet and easily value for money. considering ditching all my sports channels completely for this....any idea if this site is in any danger of being shut down etc??
Fatboy40 Posted 1 May, 2015 Posted 1 May, 2015 ....any idea if this site is in any danger of being shut down etc?? Any site flouting sporting distribution rights is always in danger of being shutdown, more so than those hosting copyrighted material, it's just a matter of time (even old safe haven's like Russia are no longer guaranteed). Constant game of cat and mouse, and why net neutrality is such an important topic.

Goatboy Posted 1 May, 2015 Posted 1 May, 2015 Is it REALLY worth while doing this guys ? Always suspicious of handing over my hard earned ................... How long does it take you to earn £25? That's six months subscription.
scally Posted 1 May, 2015 Posted 1 May, 2015 Paid through paypal and since Christmas the streams have been superb. Well worth the money.
iansums Posted 1 May, 2015 Posted 1 May, 2015 Is it REALLY worth while doing this guys ? Always suspicious of handing over my hard earned ................... I've just this minute signed up for a month and watched a bit of the BT rugby broadcast on my smart TV, have to I'm very impressed.

ChudSaint Posted 1 May, 2015 Posted 1 May, 2015 Is it REALLY worth while doing this guys ? Always suspicious of handing over my hard earned ................... Into my 2nd 6 monthly subscription, tried all the free ways in an effort to beat the man but haven't found anything more reliable.. At £20 odd for 6 months and all the Saints games + most other things I like to dip into (Cricket, Darts, Boxing) I ditched Sky a long time ago..
ZepSaint Posted 1 May, 2015 Posted 1 May, 2015 I've just this minute signed up for a month and watched a bit of the BT rugby broadcast on my smart TV, have to I'm very impressed. Might have to give it a weeks test ...................see how the boxing goes ! lol
Goatboy Posted 1 May, 2015 Posted 1 May, 2015 Is there a cost to this ? My S & M tips are free but you'll have to pay for the streaming.

Chez Posted 1 May, 2015 Posted 1 May, 2015 No need for sky or bt sports. Add total NFL coverage in there too.

The Hoff Posted 2 May, 2015 Posted 2 May, 2015 Does anyone use Ace Stream? If so, what are the best websites to find Ace Stream streams? Thanks
bilbot79 Posted 9 July, 2015 Posted 9 July, 2015 Just been on sportsmania and can't even re subscribe what's going on?
johnnyboy Posted 9 July, 2015 Author Posted 9 July, 2015 Are you using sportsmania,eu cos working fine for me ? Hit willow on @sportmania005 on Twitter he'll sort you out ! Hth !
Batman Posted 9 July, 2015 Posted 9 July, 2015 just had a look and saying no products available to purchase nothing on that twitter address
ChudSaint Posted 9 July, 2015 Posted 9 July, 2015 Know they were having some downtime today regarding payment methods, moving to a new supplier, should be back tomorrow last I heard..
Convict Colony Posted 9 July, 2015 Posted 9 July, 2015 works fine now as yeah I'm looking forward to watching McGregor on Sat night
derry Posted 10 July, 2015 Posted 10 July, 2015 Know they were having some downtime today regarding payment methods, moving to a new supplier, should be back tomorrow last I heard.. I had a PM from Willow, they are installing a new system.
Saintandy666 Posted 10 July, 2015 Posted 10 July, 2015 Problem is of course if every cheats by watching sportsmania etc, there will be no streams at all. Someone has to pay for it. I appreciate the ever rising cost of sports subscription through 'legal' means.

I appreciate the ever rising cost of sports subscription through 'legal' means. Where's the problem? The percentage watching streams is miniscule compared to the people watching it legitimately.
Saintandy666 Posted 10 July, 2015 Posted 10 July, 2015 Where's the problem? The percentage watching streams is miniscule compared to the people watching it legitimately. For now, that is the case. But as it spreads and quality of illegal streams improves there's a danger of a tragedy of the commons occurring.
