I took a gamble an ordered the new Mag 410 box
First impressions so far, it runs a strange version of android TV with a cut down version of the aptoide store. The stalker app which runs the IPTV on is for a newer version (5.1) than most of the services which are of interest to these readers which run on 5.0
It's early days and this was one of the first delivery in the UK so I'm sure either providers will upgrade or a solution will be found.
So I wouldn't recommend buying at the moment and I have gone back to the mag 256 and shield combo.
I'm going to plumb it in the spare room and have a muck about as stalker 5.1 looks interesting as you don't need to supply a Mac code to the IPTV supplier it uses a username, password and server address which makes life easier, there was a time when a lot of servers were not compatible with the 256 but that is not an issue these days. It's always a gamble being an early adopter with tech and this one I will put down to experience as this first batch of 410s are an early release for testing hence they have pretty much appeared from nowhere
