IPTV installation guide for Canada

1. From the Firestick home screen, go to the search icon at the top left, type Downloader, and install the orange Downloader app from Amazon.
2. Go to Settings, then My Fire TV, then Developer Options, and turn on Install Unknown Apps for Downloader. On some models this is under Apps from Unknown Sources.
3. Open the Amazon Appstore search again, type IBO Player Pro, and install it. On Fire TV it is available directly from the store, so you may not even need Downloader.
4. Open IBO Player Pro. The first screen shows your device MAC Address and a Device Key. Write both of these down or take a photo.
5. On a phone or computer, open a web browser and go to iboproapp.com, then choose Manage Playlists.
6. Enter the MAC Address and Device Key from your TV screen and log in.
7. Choose Add Playlist, then Xtream Codes API. Give it a name like CAST IPTV, then paste the server URL, username, and password from your welcome email. Save it.
8. Go back to the Firestick, close IBO Player Pro fully, then reopen it. Your channels, movies, and guide will load automatically.

Tip. IBO Player Pro charges a one-time small app fee from the app developer, not from us. If the app asks for an M3U link instead, use the M3U URL from your welcome email.

1. Install the Downloader app from the Amazon Appstore using the search icon.
2. Go to Settings, then My Fire TV, then Developer Options, and enable Install Unknown Apps for Downloader.
3. Open Downloader, type the TiViMate download address into the URL box (troypoint.com/tivimate or the official Play Store link), and let it download and install the APK.
4. Once installed you can delete the APK file to save space, then open TiViMate.
5. On the first screen choose Add Playlist, then Enter URL, then select Xtream Codes.
6. Type a name such as CAST IPTV, then enter the server URL, username, and password from your welcome email.
7. If you would rather use the M3U method, choose M3U instead and paste the single M3U link from your email.
8. TiViMate will download your channel list. When asked about the EPG, allow it to load the built in guide so you get the program schedule.
9. Open the settings gear to arrange favourites and pick your default layout, then start watching.

Tip. TiViMate has a free version and a paid Premium version. The core live TV features work on the free version. Premium adds multiple playlists, recording, and picture in picture.

1. Open the Google Play Store, search for IPTV Smarters Pro, and install it.
2. Open the app and accept the terms when prompted.
3. On the home screen tap Add User or Add New User.
4. Choose Login with Xtream Codes API.
5. Enter any name you like, such as CAST IPTV, then type your username, your password, and the server URL from your welcome email.
6. Tap Add User to save. The app loads your Live TV, Movies, and Series sections.
7. Open any category to start watching. The program guide fills in on its own within a minute or two.

Tip. If login fails, check for a stray space before or after your username or password, and make sure the server URL starts with http and includes the port number if we provided one.

1. Press the Home button, open the Samsung Apps store, and search for IBO Player. SmartOne IPTV is a good alternative if IBO is not in your region.
2. Install and open the app. It will show your device MAC Address and a Device Key or activation code.
3. On a phone or computer, go to the app activation website (iboproapp.com for IBO, or the SmartOne site).
4. Enter the MAC Address and Device Key, then add a playlist using Xtream Codes with your server URL, username, and password, or paste your M3U link.
5. Save the playlist, then restart the app on your Samsung TV.
6. Your channels load automatically.

Tip. Not every Samsung model carries these apps in its store. If the search returns nothing, the simplest fix is to plug a Firestick or Android box into an HDMI port and follow those steps instead.

1. Press Home, open the LG Content Store, and search for IBO Player. On newer webOS models with Google Play you can also install IPTV Smarters Pro.
2. Install and open the app, then note the MAC Address and Device Key shown on screen.
3. On a browser go to the app activation page, enter the MAC and Device Key, and add your playlist using the Xtream Codes server URL, username, and password, or your M3U link.
4. Restart the app on your LG TV and your content appears.
5. If you installed IPTV Smarters instead, just add a new user with Login with Xtream Codes API and enter your details directly on the TV.

Tip. LG does not have a native Smarters app on older models. When in doubt, an external Firestick or Android box is the most reliable route on any TV brand.

1. Open the App Store, search for IPTV Smarters or IBO Player, and install it. GSE Smart IPTV also works well on iOS.
2. Open the app and, if asked, allow it to check for content.
3. Tap Add User or Add Playlist, then choose Login with Xtream Codes API.
4. Enter a name such as CAST IPTV, then your username, password, and server URL from the welcome email.
5. Save, and your Live TV, Movies, and Series load.
6. For IBO Player, note the on screen MAC and Device Key, activate it at iboproapp.com, add your Xtream Codes details there, then reopen the app.

Tip. AirPlay lets you mirror your iPhone or iPad to an Apple TV or compatible television if you want it on the big screen.

1. On Apple TV 4K or HD (tvOS), open the App Store and search for IPTV Smarters. iPlayTV and GSE Smart IPTV are solid alternatives.
2. Install and open the app.
3. Choose Add User or Add Playlist, then Login with Xtream Codes API.
4. Enter a name, then your username, password, and server URL from your welcome email.
5. Save, and your channels and on demand content load automatically.
6. If you prefer the M3U method, choose Add M3U URL and paste the M3U link from your email instead.

Tip. Only the newer Apple TV boxes that run tvOS support these apps. The very old Apple TV 3 does not, so use AirPlay from an iPhone or iPad in that case.

1. Turn on the MAG box and go to the main menu, then open Settings, then System Settings, then Servers, then Portals.
2. In Portal 1 URL, type the portal URL we send you for MAC based devices. Leave Portal 2 blank.
3. Save the settings and reboot the box.
4. During setup you will see your device MAC Address, which looks like 00:1A:79:XX:XX:XX. Send that MAC to our support team so we can lock your line to it.
5. After we confirm your MAC is registered, reboot the MAG box once more and your channels load through the portal.

Tip. MAG boxes use the portal method, not Xtream Codes. Tell us your MAC address when you order or by live chat so we can authorise it. If channels do not appear, double check the portal URL for typos and confirm we have your exact MAC.

1. For a dedicated player, download IPTV Smarters for Windows or M3U Loader, install it, add a user with Login with Xtream Codes API, and enter your server URL, username, and password.
2. For the quick VLC method, download and install VLC Media Player from videolan.org.
3. Open VLC, click Media, then Open Network Stream.
4. Paste the M3U link from your welcome email into the URL box and click Play.
5. VLC loads the channel list in its playlist panel. Double click any channel to watch.

Tip. VLC is great for a quick test but has no program guide and no categories. For a full TV style experience with EPG, use IPTV Smarters on Windows instead.

1. Download VLC for macOS from videolan.org and install it.
2. Open VLC, click File, then Open Network, and paste your M3U link from the welcome email, then click Open.
3. The channels appear in the playlist. Double click one to start watching.
4. For a nicer interface, install IPTV Smarters or GSE Smart IPTV from the Mac App Store where available, then log in with your Xtream Codes server URL, username, and password.

Tip. If VLC will not open the stream, make sure you copied the whole M3U link. It is long and easy to cut off at the end.

1. From the Formuler home screen, open the MyTVOnline app (MOL 2 or MOL 3).
2. Choose Edit Service, then Add Portal to set the box up MAC style like a MAG, or choose the Xtream Codes option for username and password login.
3. For the portal method, enter a nickname such as CAST IPTV, then paste the portal URL we send you, and press Connect. Note the MAC address in the top right and send it to us to authorise.
4. For the Xtream method, choose Xtream Codes API, enter a nickname, then type your server URL, username, and password from the welcome email.
5. Press Connect or OK, and MyTVOnline downloads your channels and guide.
6. Reboot the box if the guide does not fill in right away.

Tip. Formuler boxes support both the portal (MAC) method and Xtream Codes. If you use the portal method, we need your MAC address to activate the line.

1. On the Dreamlink, open the OTT Player app that comes preinstalled, or install IPTV Smarters from the Google Play Store on T4 models.
2. In OTT Player, go to Settings, choose the Xtream Codes or portal login, and enter your details.
3. For Xtream Codes, type your server URL, username, and password. For the portal method, enter the portal URL and send us your MAC address to activate.
4. Save and reload, and your channels appear.
5. If you prefer IPTV Smarters, open it, tap Add User, choose Login with Xtream Codes API, and enter your server URL, username, and password.

Tip. Dreamlink T4 runs full Android TV, so any Play Store player works. Older T3 boxes work best with the built in OTT Player.
