Anyone know how to play this live stream? (News 12 NJ)

We recently switched from cable to PlayStation Vue and while it's great, we lost our local news channel News 12 NJ. Turns out there's a live stream online!

Does anyone know of a way I can get this stream to play on my Fire TV?

You need to have kodi on your firetv to watch news12..

Did you ever get it working? I just tried the Kodi addon but it appears that it's not supported any longer

they have an app in the Amazon marketplace already.

is it news 12nj or news 12 long island?

u/here4now2017 avatar

you would need a cable subscription to watch news12 from the amazon market, with kodi no subscription needed..

It's on the Amazon marketplace? I thought it wasn't available for the Fire TV... I must have missed this somehow! I'll look tonight when I get home.

I'm looking for News 12 NJ

EDIT: Doesn't look like it's available natively for the Fire TV: https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_2?url=node%3D10208590011&field-keywords=news+12. Wondering if sideloading the Android app would work...

do you have kodi installed? if you do I can get you your news12...

u/CaptainBroccoli avatar

Yes, I'll install the latest version tonight (16.1 Jarvis). I tried the version on SuperRepo earlier today with a PC build of Kodi and it said it wasn't supported.

Would be so grateful if you could help!
