The following step-by-step tutorial will show you How to stream IPTV on Kodi using our IPTV M3U URL.
The instructions below will work for our IPTV.
You may find this in the welcome email that you received when you registered for our IPTV service.
Many IPTV services don’t provide a Kodi addon but we can use the PVR IPTV Simple Client addon if we have an M3U URL.
Kodi IPTV is perfect for cord-cutters who are unable to install APK’s for live streaming.
Kodi IPTV Setup
NOTE: This post shows users how to set up an IPTV Service on Kodi.
IPTV is usually a paid service that requires a subscription prior to use.
Use the steps below to setup IPTV on Kodi:
1. Launch Kodi and select Settings
2. Click Add-ons
3. Choose Install from repository
4. Click PVR clients
5. Scroll down and choose PVR IPTV Simple Client
6. Click Install
7. Wait for PVR IPTV Simple Client Add-on installed message to appear
8. Click PVR IPTV Simple Client again
9. Click Configure
10. Under General, hover over and select M3U Play List URL
11. Enter provided M3U URL from our IPTV Service with your account info inserted and click OK.
NOTE: You will usually have two M3U URLs. One is for the channel listings and one is for the EPG (TV Guide). We will insert the EPG M3U URL in step #8 below.
Most M3U URLs require that you input your service username and password. You will usually see where these go inside the URL as they are indicated by “username=xxxx” & password=xxxx”. You will input your username and password where the x’s are located.
Here is an example of an M3U URL. This is not a real M3U URL but this is how the structure typically looks:
http://Apollogrouptv.tv/get.php?username=xxxx&password=xxxx&type=m3u_plus&output=ts
Once you have inserted your username and password into the URL, you can use the bit.ly service and shorten the URL so it is easier to type into the box below. That’s what we did.
If you don’t want to use bit.ly you need to ensure that the address is typed into the box with no mistakes. One wrong character in the address and this will not work.
12. Hover over EPG Settings and choose XMLTV URL
13. Type the EPG M3U URL or shortened bit.ly URL for your TV Guide and click OK
14. Click Ok again
15. Click OK when prompted with Needs to restart message
16. Force close Kodi and re-open the app. Wait for PVR Manager to start and channels to download (This may take a few minutes). When finished, you will see Simple Client Channels loaded message
That’s it! Installation is complete.
