TiviMate Setup and Playlist Settings
TiviMate is a player app used on Android TV-based televisions and media boxes. This page covers adding a playlist to the app, organising channel groups, defining the programme guide and playback preferences step by step.
Player Choice
Television Experience Design
Watching habits on a television differ from a phone or computer: you navigate with the remote, the channel list has to be readable on the big screen and the programme information must appear together with the channel name. For this reason, players suited to the remote are preferred on Android TV-based devices.
Player choice does not change the content scope; it only determines the interface and the settings available. The same subscription can be used on different players. The setup flow IPTV setup guide, adding a playlist on the M3U setup page.
- Has the device's app support and version been checked?
- Has the playlist address or login details been entered in full?
- Have the channel groups and favourites been organised?
- Has the programme guide been defined and matched?

Completing the TiviMate Setup in Five Steps
Setup on television-based players is completed in five steps: the app is installed, the playlist is added, the data is fetched, the channel layout is created and the guide is defined. The steps are done with the remote control in a few minutes.
-
01
Install the app on the device
The player is downloaded from the device's app store. On some devices it may not appear in the store list; in that case the device's app support is checked.
-
02
Open the add playlist screen
When the app is opened for the first time, the add playlist section appears. On later uses, a new playlist is added from the settings menu.
-
03
Enter the subscription details
The M3U playlist address or the Xtream login details are selected and typed into the fields. After saving, the player starts fetching the channel list.
-
04
Organise the channel groups and the favourites
Categories you do not want to see are hidden, frequently watched channels are added to favourites and the order is changed.
-
05
Define the programme guide
The guide source is added and channel matching is carried out. Once matching is complete, the current programme information appears in the channel list.
Make signing in with the remote easier
Typing a long playlist address on a television is a chore; copying the address from your phone and pasting it into the login field is the most practical method. Once the details are entered they should be checked on the screen and the playlist refreshed if needed. If the stream freezes IPTV freezing page are followed.

| PlaylistData fetch | If the playlist appears empty, the login details may be incomplete or the connection may be interrupted. | The details are checked again, the playlist is refreshed and the app is restarted. |
| PictureResolution and screen compatibility | Settings that do not match the device resolution can distort the picture. | The aspect ratio and resolution settings are set to the value the device supports. |
| SoundSound and subtitle preferences | The audio track or subtitle selection may differ from channel to channel. | The sound and subtitle options on the playback screen are checked for each channel. |
| GuideProgramme information | If the guide is not configured, the programme name and time information do not appear. | The guide source is added, matching is carried out and the channel list is refreshed. |

Which devices can TiviMate be used on?
Android TV-based televisions and media boxes are the devices where this app is most commonly used. Its availability and version in the app store may vary depending on the device manufacturer; the device's app support is checked before installation.
How is TiviMate set up?
The app is installed on the device and opened. The first screen shows the add playlist section; the playlist is created here by entering the M3U playlist address or the Xtream login details.
