What is the difference between M3U URL and Xtream Codes?

M3U URL is a playlist link that contains all your channels in a single file, compatible with most media players like VLC. Xtream Codes API provides a more integrated experience with features like categories, EPG, and VOD in supported apps like TiviMate or IPTV Smarters.

Both methods give you access to the same content - it's just different ways of connecting to our service. We recommend Xtream Codes for a better user experience.

+

We recommend the following IPTV players:

  • TiviMate - Best for Firestick and Android TV (paid)
  • IPTV Smarters - Great for all devices (free and paid versions)
  • GSE Smart IPTV - Excellent for iOS devices
  • VLC Media Player - Simple option for PC/Mac
  • Perfect Player - Good alternative for various platforms

Yes, you can upgrade your plan at any time. The upgrade will take effect immediately, and you'll be charged the prorated difference. If you wish to downgrade, the change will take effect at the start of your next billing cycle.

What is your refund policy?

We offer a money-back guarantee on all plans:

  • 1-month plans: 7-day money-back guarantee

If you're on a 6-month or 12-month plan, cancellation will prevent automatic renewal at the end of your subscription term.

Technical Issues

Why am I experiencing buffering?

+

Buffering can be caused by several factors:

  • Internet connection: Ensure you have at least 15Mbps for HD streams
  • Wi-Fi signal: Try using a wired connection if possible
  • Device performance: Older devices may struggle with HD content
  • Server load: During peak hours, try switching to a different server
  • VPN usage: Some VPNs can slow down your connection

Channels are not loading, what should I do?

+

If channels are not loading:

  1. Check your internet connection

Why is there no sound on some channels?

+

No sound issues are usually related to audio codecs. Try these solutions:

  • Update your IPTV app to the latest version
  • For VLC: Go to Audio > Audio Track and try different options
  • Check if the issue is specific to certain channels or all channels

If the problem continues, contact support with the specific channel names and your device information.

If your Electronic Program Guide isn't working:

  1. Ensure your EPG URL is correctly entered in your app settings
  2. Manually refresh the EPG in your app settings
  3. Check if your app has the latest update
