Easy setup · 5 steps
Set up AeroIptv on a Samsung or LG smart TV using an IPTV player from your TV's own app store. Smart TVs can't install Android apps, so use the player named in your setup email. Using Vizio, TCL, Hisense or a Roku TV? See the notes in the FAQ below.
Steps checked against official Smart TV documentation · Last updated
Required information
Your AeroIptv username, password and server URL, sent by email or WhatsApp within an hour of your order.
Compatible device
A Samsung (Tizen) or LG (webOS) smart TV connected to the internet
Internet connection
A stable connection: about 10 Mbps for Full HD, 25 Mbps for 4K. Ethernet is best for TVs.
Supported application
The player app named in your setup email
TV account
Samsung TVs ask you to sign in with a Samsung account before downloading apps.
Step 1
Samsung: press Home, go to Apps, select the search icon and type the name of the player from your setup email, then select Install. LG: press Home, open Apps (called LG Content Store on older models), select the search icon in the top-right corner, search for the player and select Install.
Step 2
Select Open (Samsung) or Launch (LG). Many smart TV players show a Device ID or MAC address the first time they open instead of a login form — leave that screen visible or write the ID down.
Step 3
In the app, choose to add a new user or playlist. Pick Xtream Codes if the app offers it — it loads live TV, movies, series and the TV guide most reliably — and enter the server URL (including http:// and the port), username and password exactly as they appear in your setup message. Details are case-sensitive; typing them by hand avoids hidden spaces from copy-and-paste. If your app shows a Device ID or MAC address instead, you add the playlist on the app developer's official website using that ID — or send the ID to us on WhatsApp and we'll help you connect it. Our IBO Player setup guide shows this method step by step.
Step 4
Save and give the app a minute to download your channel list and TV guide — the first load takes longest. Then check the time zone on your device so the guide shows the right programs, and add your most-watched channels to Favorites.
Step 5
Open Live TV and choose a channel. If something doesn't load, restart the app once and check your connection, then see the troubleshooting section below. Our support team is available 24/7 on WhatsApp.
No. Samsung TVs run Tizen and LG TVs run webOS, so they only install apps from their own stores. Use a player from your TV's store, or add a Google TV streaming device for Android apps.
Vizio SmartCast and Roku TVs don't offer most IPTV players, so plug in a streaming device. TCL and Hisense Google TV models install apps from Google Play — follow the Android TV / Google TV guide.
Yes. Samsung TVs ask you to sign in with a Samsung account before downloading apps from the Apps store.
Tell us your device model and what you see on screen — we'll help you finish setup.
