Hi Guys

I need a little or maybe a lot of help. I have bought a T95 Android tv box from the internet.
Apart from switching on the box and a few setting details, there are no instructions on how to actually set up the tv connections.

From what I understand, I need to set up the PVR client addon and configure it, from the long list that has been added.
If I take one example:
If I select Argus TV client, it has already been enabled I just need to configure.
Easier said than done when I have a list of fields to complete.
Where do I find the Argus TV hostname.
ARGUS TV Hostname: set the IP address or server name of the machine on which your ARGUS TV Scheduler Service (=core) is running??????

Windows user account is set to guest, do I need to change this?
Where do i find the password.

Ang help would be much appreciated.

Have you tried the YouTube videos via google? There seems to be plenty of advice there.

I'm not sure how much you know about Kodi & apps , you may have a long way to go ! Most peopel are using paid IPTV subscriptions and apps such as SMART IPTV - the problem is getting a reliable list provider (at a cost) as a lot of them have been caught & prosecuted.
As said here are many Youtube videos on how to install , I personally have never used the PVR option - there are other ways to get access using builds which do all the work for you . You're going to be busy !

Also there are several stand-alone apps that give you access to many channels - some links below-

As Steve56 says,just google it,but here are a few tips
Go to the browser on your box and search for APTOIDE and download it (this is similar to playstore)
Click on top right icon(keyboard should appear),if you want UK Tv type in ...tv catchup,(this is live tv ) and scroll down the page
(it is about 11th down the list) and then hit install.
Other good ones are:
Touch vpn (this a free vpn to) when downloaded switch country from spain to uk,so you can watch...
Bbc iplayer
Itv Hub
Tv Mucho (this lets you watch Uk Tv free for an hour per day or costs 48€ per year)where you can watch live or 7 day catch-up.
If you go into your browser then go to www.tvtap,netand download it (this has stacks of channels inc: Sky sport, Bt sport etc etc).
Another good one is www.livenettv.to,just hit download for android ,(it takes a few seconds to open and starts of with Pakistani Tv,but scroll down and all your UK
channels are there,scroll along the top and you will see lots of sections like,Movies News,Sports,again just scroll down to United Kingdom
and if you get bored,you can go into Spain and watch Spanish Tv.
These are apps that load onto your box,i would not bother with the pvr set up
Enjoy.

Thank you for the replies, I like that idea of downloading the apps onto the box, it looks an easier route as I do not know anything about Kodi.

If you want to add Kodi to your box just download the app either from Aptoide or Playstore,then just google "how to add NOVA build to Kodi"(this is the one i use,as it is always kept up to date).

I purchased my box pre-installed with all the channels I want, so I don't have to worry about the techy stuff:lol:

Nothing can kill the joy of an iPhone/iPad owner faster than realizing that you’ve lost your data or those wonderful Apps because you forgot to back up your iPhone/iPad to your computer, isn’t it?. Sometimes, you might lose important documents on our iPhone/iPad or it could be your favorite songs you purchased from iTunes, phone numbers of your friends, colleagues, important photos etc. That’s why backing up your data to your PC/Mac is essential. It ensures that everything is taken care of in case of any accidental damage of your device, or loss due to the software upgrade, factory settings of your device etc. You can safeguard your iPhone information by regularly backing up files to your computer using iTunes or other alternative means which are far better choices. So, follow the guide below to explore how to backup iPhone/iPad to a computer.

Backing up your files to your PC/Mac with iTunes enables you to backup most important data on your iPhone/iPad, including contacts, photos, calendars, notes, messages, etc. It gives you the ability to encrypt your iPhone Backup and save your backup files to your computer. You can also*restore the iTunes backup*to your iPhone/iPad on your computer. Open iTunes and on the home page, click on the Device icon next to the category drop-down menu on the left side of the iTunes window. Select Summary on the right bar of the program and then Select*“This computer”*under “Automatically Back up”. To ensure that your passwords and other data are backed up as well, check the “Encrypt” box. You will be prompted to create a password to protect your encrypted backups which will be automatically stored in a Keychain.
