How to get Supercross on your TV in HD!

Post by Oldmotocrosser »

Hi everyone:

We all know of the battle to bring our beloved Enduro, Supercross, and Motocross to our TV's has been a battle since Telus and Shaw have dropped SPEEDTV, and not brought in the rebranded Fox Sports Racing. But, alas, there is another way!

I recently went to the Home and Garden Show in Calgary, and saw the Raw Mini Streaming device using XBMC. This item Rocks!!! It has an AMA Racing Application which supports and broadcasts live Endurocross, Motocross, Supercross, Road Racing and Flat Track! I have ran it for several days now, and wow! It is full HD with no lag at all, and I am using the Shaw 30 plan for wifi. The other benefits are movies, and other live sporting events etc.

The devices run from $80 to $325 roughly, but I chose the Raw Mini, and it is amazing. You can watch almost any channel from around the world that you want.

So, get yours here at http://www.raw-media.ca and ask for Geoff, and tell him Curtis sent you. Or call 403-560-6302.

The online support is easy to follow.

I will post more instructions later, but I wanted to show everyone what I have found.

Enjoy, and send me questions if you have any.

The problem with the TV box is that not all of the sources are legal so over time the content will disappear. It's a big topic.

XBMC turned into Kodi and here is a link to what they have to say:

https://kodi.tv/the-piracy-box-sellers- ... ling-kodi/

Kodi runs on all platforms including Windows, Linux, Apple, Android, etc. I won't buy a specialised tv box that runs kodi now because of this issue, but I do use Kodi on my devices. :)

Also this web site http://www.vipleague.sx/search/supercro ... supercross has streaming and its not bad (pain because of all the links that pop up pretending to get you to login - AV required). It can even be cast to a TV. The content is also illegal but to me the difference is that I didn't pay for it and someone isn't profiting from my money, but they are from my clicks.

It's tough to be law abiding when given no legal options. Applies to most things. :)

PS This post is meant to be educational not confrontational.

The above reply was a good one, but you should note that there are legally sanctioned apps on the KODI by the TV networks that you can get and pay for if legality is an issue for you. Regardless of the method you choose to stream the show, the result is the same. The Raw Mini has the horse power to eliminate or minimize the lag while streaming. Also, you can pay and have livestream right on the device, which I have done. I have tried livestream on my PC and it was ridiculously slow. On the Raw Mini, I set it to regular resolution and had perfect streaming, legally, and live. Enjoy.
