I've installed the epg ninja on my fire stick and got it to work with the channels but for some reason the picture is very choppy...its not buffering but just looks choppy it's not running smoothly...does anyone know what issue can be?....thanks!

There is a incompatibility issue with the acceleration. Go under settings then video make sure you have expert selected at the top then under acceleration make sure to turn off any hardware acceleration.
My software has no bugs it develops random features.
do check acceleration, it would result into freezing and buffering issue , the streams are in low quality too, also this seems to be a issue with how the streams are encoded.
You will also notice the sound volume going up and down. Hopefully we go back to HD streams.
thanks got it
I am having the same issue with the choppy video on a Fire Stick and turning off the hardware acceleration did not fix the problem. Any other reason why this would happen? It happens on movie channels, sports channels, seems like on every channel. I am running KODI 16.0 Jarvis. Thanks in advance.
Simple solution....go back to Kodi 15.2 until video issues are sorted out in future releases. Disabling hardware acceleration helps somewhat but the overall picture is still not clean and smooth. Not to mention you would have to re enable hardware acceleration if you were to play any video addons as you may get slow video resulting in audio sync issues.
If you're using AFTV 2nd gen, for HD channels (USA channels, ESPN US..) you need to TURN ON the hardware acceleration for smooth viewing results, but for the SD channels hardware acceleration should remain off.
Catch me smoking weed where the Wild things are.
so its necessary to constantly be switching back and forth in the hardware acceleration?
Hope they can fix this problem. Noticed it last night on CNN (slight buffering)... Great picture on rocket with the 3 new HD channels. Keep it up rocket, and please add more HD channels. andkaal
From my expereince, i am guessing you are using kodi 16, revert back to 15.2 and it will solve that problem, to further solve your problem i would use stb emulator that works so much better on amazon fire sticks.
