Common questions

What if my playlist does not load?

Check the exact server address, credentials and active subscription. Restart the player and contact your authorised provider if the error persists.

Do player apps include TV channels?

Most IPTV players are software only. You need a separate, lawful content subscription or playlist.

How do I reduce buffering?

Use a stable network, ideally Ethernet; restart your router and lower playback quality if necessary.
