Set up Strong 8K Player on whatever you're holding
There's a walkthrough below for every device we support — pick yours and follow it, or skip the reading entirely and message us on WhatsApp; we'll talk you through it live while you hold the remote.
Most popular
Amazon Firestick & Fire TV
The cheapest way to turn any TV into an IPTV set. Works on every Firestick from the 2nd generation up, and on the Fire TV Cube.
Install Downloader
Search the Amazon store for "Downloader", install it and open it.
Get your player
In Downloader enter the link we send you on WhatsApp to install IPTV Smarters or TiviMate.
Enter your login
Open the player, choose "Login with Xtream Codes API", and type the username, password and portal URL from your WhatsApp message.
Wait for the guide
The channel list and EPG load in about thirty seconds. That is it — you are watching.
Other devices
Everything else
Samsung & LG Smart TV
Install Ibo Player or Smart IPTV from your TV's own store, note the MAC address it shows, and send it to us. We attach your line to that MAC and the channels appear — no sideloading.
Android phone, tablet or box
Install TiviMate or IPTV Smarters from Google Play, choose "Xtream Codes API" and enter the details we send. Android TV boxes handle 4K best.
iPhone, iPad & Apple TV
Install an Xtream-compatible player from the App Store, add your login and the guide loads as it does everywhere else. Apple TV is one of the steadiest options.
MAG & Formuler
Portal boxes are keyed to their MAC address. Send us the MAC from Settings → System Info, we authorise it, then reboot the box and the portal loads.
Windows & Mac
VLC will open the M3U link directly. For a proper guide and a channel list, use an Xtream-compatible desktop player instead.
Prefer we do it?
Message us on WhatsApp. A Strong 8K Player engineer stays with you step by step until the first channel is playing — no charge, whatever plan you are on.
If something buffers
Even a strong IPTV line can stutter if the last three metres are wrong. Work through these in order — in our experience the first two fix the large majority of complaints:
- Get off 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi. Use 5 GHz or, better, an ethernet cable. This alone solves most stuttering.
- Restart the device properly — a full power cycle, not just closing the app.
- Drop the quality from 4K to FHD on a busy evening; your eyes will barely notice on a normal-sized TV.
- Clear the app cache if the guide looks wrong or channels are missing.
- Then message us. If it is our side, we move your line to another server while you wait.
Setup & troubleshooting
Which app should I use?
TiviMate if you want the best guide and are happy on Android or Firestick; IPTV Smarters if you want the simplest set-up; Ibo Player on Smart TVs that will not sideload. All three take the same login.
What is the difference between M3U and Xtream Codes?
Two ways of feeding the same subscription to your app. Xtream Codes uses a username, password and portal and gives you a proper EPG; M3U is a single long URL. We send both — use whichever your app prefers.
The picture keeps buffering. What should I check?
In order: switch from 2.4 GHz to 5 GHz Wi-Fi or plug in ethernet; restart the device (not just the app); lower the stream from 4K to FHD; then message us so we can move your line to a different server.
My MAG box shows a portal error.
MAG and Formuler boxes are authorised by MAC address. Send us the MAC exactly as it appears in Settings → System Info and we will attach it to your line — a wrong digit is the usual cause.
Can I set it up on two devices?
You can install the login anywhere, but a single subscription streams on one device at a time. If two rooms need to watch at once, ask about a multi-connection plan.
Stuck? We will set it up with you
Send us a message with the device you are using and we will get the first channel playing together.
