EPG for IPTV panels: add an XMLTV guide source
A compatible IPTV panel can import an XMLTV EPG URL, map programme data to its channel IDs, and pass the guide to its authorised clients. This guide covers the common workflow for XUI One, StreamCreed, and Xtream Codes-compatible panels.
EPGWise provides up to 7 days depending on country and a 7-day free trial where eligible. It is guide metadata only — no video streams, playlists, panel accounts, or content are included.
Standard IPTV panel EPG setup
Copy your private XMLTV URL
From your EPGWise dashboard, copy the private feed for the country or bundle you subscribed to. Use the compressed URL when your panel supports gzip.

Open the panel's EPG, XMLTV, or guide-source manager and choose Add Source. Paste the URL as an external XMLTV source; do not put it in a stream or Xtream login field. Menu names vary by panel release.
Map streams to XMLTV channel IDs
Wait for the panel to show imported programmes, then assign each stream's EPG ID or tvg-id to the matching XMLTV channel id. Names alone are not reliable for regional variants.
Refresh bouquets and client guides
Confirm mapped streams are included in the bouquets or packages delivered to your authorised clients. Run the panel's guide refresh, then refresh the client playlist or guide.
Panel-specific guides
XUI One EPG setup
Import an external XMLTV source, map stream IDs, and refresh bouquets.
StreamCreed EPG setup
Add a guide source, rebuild programme data, and map authorised streams.
Xtream Codes EPG setup
Use a separate XMLTV URL with M3U, compatible players, or panel imports.
If .xml.gz is not accepted
Use the matching plain .xml URL from your dashboard. The content is the same; the compressed version simply transfers less data when the importer supports it.
If the guide is still blank
Check the panel fetch result, verify the source is reachable from the panel server, and compare stream EPG IDs with XMLTV channel IDs. Use the M3U matcher when the playlist metadata needs inspection.

What is an EPG for an IPTV panel?
It is programme metadata, usually XMLTV, that a compatible panel imports and maps to its channel streams before passing the guide to authorised clients.
Does EPGWise provide streams or IPTV subscriptions?
No. EPGWise provides private programme-guide metadata only. Use it with streams, playlists, and panel software you are authorised to access.
Why are programmes attached to the wrong channel?
The stream EPG ID or tvg-id does not match the XMLTV channel id. Correct the mapping and then refresh the panel and client guide.
