How to set up IPTV on Windows & Mac
On a computer you can use a full desktop player with a guide, or simply open your M3U link in VLC for a quick channel list.
-
Install a desktop player
- Download IPTV Smarters Pro for Windows or macOS from its official website, or VLC from videolan.org.
-
Sign in with your login
- Open IPTV Smarters Pro and choose Login with Xtream Codes API (or Add playlist → Xtream Codes in TiviMate).
- Enter any name you like, then the username, password and server URL from your activation message, exactly as sent.
- Select Add user / Next. Channels, films and the guide load in under a minute.
Copy details carefully. Server URLs usually include a port such as
:8080. A wrong character is the number-one cause of login errors. -
Quick option: VLC
- In VLC choose Media → Open Network Stream (Windows) or File → Open Network (Mac).
- Paste your M3U link and press Play. Press Ctrl/Cmd + L to show the channel list.
