Step-by-step setup
Install IPTV Edge on Smart TV
Open your TV’s app store
Samsung: Apps on the home bar. LG: the LG Content Store.
Install the player we recommend
Search for the app named in your welcome message. If it shows a one-time fee, that goes to the app developer; we always mention it first.
Note the device ID if the app shows one
Some TV players display a MAC or device key on first launch. Send it to us if your instructions ask for it.
Add your details
Enter the login or playlist link from our message, or use the app’s website upload if it has one. Typing on a phone is far easier than with a TV remote.
Load the guide and favorites
Let the first load finish, then mark your favorite channels.
Tip
Picture looks over-processed? Switch off motion smoothing in the TV’s picture settings.
Full Smart TV guideInstall IPTV Edge on Fire TV
Check your model first
Settings → My Fire TV → About. Some newer models cannot install apps from outside the Amazon Appstore, which changes the steps. Tell us the model name.
Install the recommended player
From the Appstore when it is listed there. If not, we send instructions using the Downloader app, which is itself in the Appstore.
Allow the install only for Downloader
If you use Downloader, allow “install unknown apps” for Downloader only, and switch it off again afterwards.
Add your details
Choose Xtream Codes login, then paste or carefully type the details from our message.
Move the app to the front row
Long-press the app icon and choose Move, so it is one click from the home screen.
Tip
Fire TV Sticks behind the TV often get weak Wi-Fi. The HDMI extender in the box, or an Ethernet adapter, helps a lot.
Full Fire TV guideInstall IPTV Edge on Android
Open the Google Play Store
On Android TV, Google TV, TV boxes, phones and tablets.
Install the recommended player
Check the developer name matches the one in our message before you install.
Add your details
Choose the Xtream Codes or playlist option and paste the details. On a phone, copy them straight from the chat.
Set the player options
If your app offers hardware decoding, leave it on; it is smoother on most devices.
Tip
On phones, turn on “download over Wi-Fi only” for the guide if your mobile data is capped.
Full Android guideInstall IPTV Edge on Apple TV & iPhone
Open the App Store
On Apple TV (tvOS), iPhone or iPad.
Install the recommended player
Several players accept Xtream Codes or M3U links. Some are paid or have a subscription of their own; we tell you which before you install.
Add your details
On Apple TV, apps that let you type on your iPhone save a lot of time.
Use AirPlay if you prefer
On iPhone or iPad, the AirPlay button sends the picture to an Apple TV or AirPlay-compatible TV.
Tip
Apple TV 4K connected by Ethernet is one of the most reliable setups for live sports.
Full Apple TV & iPhone guideInstall IPTV Edge on Windows & Mac
Choose a player
A desktop IPTV player, or a general media player that can open M3U playlist links.
Add the playlist or login
In a media player, use “Open network stream” and paste the M3U link. In an IPTV player, use the Xtream Codes option.
Use a cable if you can
Laptops on busy Wi-Fi are the most common cause of buffering on computers.
Tip
A computer is also the quickest way to check your details work before setting up a TV.
Install IPTV Edge on MAG boxes
Send us the MAC address
It is on the sticker under the box and starts with 00:1A:79. We link it to your plan.
Open the portal settings
Settings → System settings → Servers → Portals.
Enter the portal address
Type the address from our message into Portal 1 URL, give it a name, and save.
Restart the box
The portal loads with your channels and library after the restart.
Tip
Other set-top boxes with a built-in portal option follow the same idea; send us the model and we send exact steps.
Your network
Set up the connection once, enjoy it every evening
- Ethernet to the main TV is the single biggest improvement you can make.
- On Wi-Fi, use the 5 GHz network and keep the router out of cupboards.
- Aim for about 10 Mbps per HD screen and 25 Mbps for 4K, measured on the TV itself.
- If your internet provider blocks or slows streams, the router’s DNS setting is worth checking with us.
Quick fixes
If something does not load after setup
The app says my login is wrong
Copy and paste instead of typing, check for spaces at the start or end, and make sure the server address includes http:// and the port exactly as sent.
Channels load but the guide is empty
Use the app’s update or refresh guide option and wait a few minutes. If times are off, set the time zone or EPG time shift in the app.
Everything buffers
Restart the router and device, then try Ethernet or 5 GHz Wi-Fi. The help center has the full checklist.
