How To Install and Use iMPlayer IPTV Player on Firestick and Android TV

implayer

This step by-step-tutorial will provide you with instructions to Install and Use iMPlayer on Firestick, Fire TV, and Android TV Box.

iMPlayer is one of the Best IPTV Players available that works well with IPTV Services that provide an M3U URL or Xtreme Codes API.

This is a great addition to other IPTV Players such as TiviMate or IPTV Smarters.

Check with your current IPTV provider on whether they grant access to their M3U URL prior to going through this guide.

You can usually find this in your welcome email, support documents, or online discussion board that most IPTV services offer for their subscribers.

There is both a premium version and a free version of the iMPlayer software available for use. However, TROYPOINT suggests purchasing a premium account for a much better experience.

The premium option includes the following features not available with the free version:

  • Recording
  • Adding channels to Favorites
  • Catch-up
  • Rewinding feature
  • Multiview
  • Locking channels
  • Support for multiple playlists
  • Customizable TV Guides
  • Manual Channels sorting

Like most IPTV players, without using the premium version there isn’t much sense in using this app.

We suggest first installing the free app via the instructions below.  If you like the app, you can register for the premium version and we cover that below as well.

Once on this screen, you can either log in with an M3U URL or Xtreme Codes API.

Because these M3U URL’s are so long to type, we recommend using an API or Xtream Code if applicable.

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.

3. For this example, we are connecting our IPTV account with iMPlayer using the Xtreme Codes API. If using Xtreme Codes API hover over and click Use XC Portal Login API in the upper right.

For this example, we are connecting our Sportz TV account with iMPlayer using the Xtreme Codes API.
