Step by step
Install a player
Download and install an IPTV player for Windows such as IPTV Smarters Pro, or use the free VLC media player if you prefer.
Choose Xtream Codes login
In a dedicated player, select "Login with Xtream Codes API" for the best experience with full TV guide and VOD.
Enter your credentials
Type in the username, password and server address we sent you, then save.
Wait for content to sync
The app downloads the channel list, films, series and TV guide, which can take a minute.
Adjust playback settings
Enable hardware decoding in the player settings for smoother video on older machines.
- VLC with M3U URL
In VLC, open Media, then Open Network Stream, and paste the M3U playlist link we sent you. VLC confirms your details work but has no TV guide.
