By ~5 min read

For users with subscriptions to more than one IPTV service, managing multiple playlists can enhance viewing flexibility. The TVMate IPTV Player allows you to add and switch between different M3U or Xtream Codes playlists easily. This guide provides clear instructions on how to effectively utilize TVMate to manage and access content from various IPTV providers simultaneously.

Adding Your First Playlist

Begin by launching the TVMate IPTV Player. If this is your first time, you'll be prompted to add a playlist. Select the option to add a new playlist or user. Choose the type of connection: M3U URL or Xtream Codes. For M3U, enter a name for your playlist (e.g., 'Provider A') and paste the M3U URL. For Xtream Codes, input the server URL, username, and password, along with a playlist name. Save the details, and your first playlist will load.

Adding Subsequent Playlists

To add more playlists, navigate to the player's settings or playlist management section. Look for an option like 'Add Playlist', 'Add User', or a '+' icon. Repeat the process described above for each additional IPTV service you wish to add. You can assign distinct names to each playlist, making it easier to identify them later. TVMate supports managing several playlists concurrently.

Switching Between Playlists

Once multiple playlists are added, TVMate provides a straightforward way to switch between them. Typically, there's a menu or dropdown option accessible from the main screen or within the settings. This allows you to select the desired playlist from a list of those you've configured. Switching usually takes only a few moments, after which your content library will update to reflect the channels and VOD from the selected provider.

Key Benefits

  • Supports adding multiple M3U and Xtream Codes playlists.
  • Easy naming convention for each playlist.
  • Quick and simple switching between services.
  • Consolidates content from various providers.
