Frequently asked questions
What is IPTV Player?
IPTV Player is a free web app that plays your own IPTV subscription — live TV, movies and series — in a modern, TV-style player that runs in any browser.
Does IPTV Player provide channels or subscriptions?
No. IPTV Player is a player only. It does not sell, host or provide any channels, movies, series, playlists or subscriptions. You add your own source and watch it.
Is IPTV Player free?
Yes, the player is free to use. It may show advertising to cover its running costs.
What do I need to use it?
An IPTV subscription from a provider: an Xtream Codes login (server, username, password), an M3U/M3U8 playlist link, or a playlist file.
Which formats are supported?
Xtream Codes accounts, M3U and M3U8 playlists, and HLS streams.
Which devices does it work on?
Any modern web browser — desktops, laptops, phones, tablets and smart-TV browsers. There is nothing to install.
Can I watch on more than one device?
Yes. Your favorites and watch progress sync to your account, so you can stop on one device and continue on another.
Are my provider credentials safe?
Provider passwords and playlist links are encrypted at rest and never shown back in the browser. The operator holds the encryption key and can decrypt them to run and support the service, so use a login you are comfortable sharing with this site.
Does it work offline?
No. IPTV Player streams from your provider over the internet, so a connection is required.
Is using IPTV Player legal?
The app itself is a media player. You must only use it with channels and streams you have the legal right to watch. See the Terms and Copyright policy.
