Setup guides
XMLTV setup for IPTV players, panels, and DVRs
Each guide walks through pasting a private gzipped XMLTV URL (.xml.gz) into the client, refreshing listings, and mapping channels. That includes IPTV Smarters, XUI One, StreamCreed, Xtream Codes-compatible workflows, Jellyfin, Kodi, Plex, TVHeadend, and NextPVR. The feed is programme metadata only, not live video.
