Well this Quick Tutorial is how to Watch 4:2:2 with your Octagon.

Now H264 4:2:2 is Buggy as hell idk why.

First we need Kodi or any other software which can grab the UPNP Link from our Box.

After the Software has booted like in my case (Kodi)

You add your Box IP to your Kodi Video Playlist and Play the Channel of your Choice which in Case is 4:2:2.

then go to your Kodi logs grab the link and insert it on VLC to Record or any other browser to Download the file which will be TS.

Now i was able to Play 4:2:2 Mpeg 2 Feed on Kodi which was Broadcasted on 12.5w

The H264 feed was Playing also on Kodi but Crashed the Software.

i am using an macbook so if you could try it on windows and report it would be nice.

Tryed to play Bundesliga on 3w kodi played the file but then crashed.
