Welcome to TiviStation! To get the most out of our premium service, you need a high-performance player. Follow this step-by-step guide to get your Firestick up and running in less than 5 minutes.

🚀 How to Setup Your TiviStation Subscription on Apple TV
Apple TV offers one of the most fluid and high-definition experiences for TiviStation. Since Apple has a strict ecosystem, the setup is slightly different but very straightforward using premium apps available directly in the App Store.
Step 1: Install a Compatible Player
Apple TV does not have a “Downloader” app like Firestick. Instead, you can download top-rated players directly from the App Store.
- Option A: IPTV Smarters Pro (Lite)
- Search for “IPTV Smarters” in the App Store.
- Best for: Users who want a familiar, easy-to-navigate interface.
- Option B: iPlayTV (Highly Recommended for Apple TV)
- This is a paid app, but it is widely considered the best-looking player for the Apple TV interface.
- Option C: GSE Smart IPTV
- A powerful, versatile alternative if the others are unavailable.
Step 2: Connecting to TiviStation
Once you have opened your chosen app, use the Xtream Codes API method to log in. This ensures your EPG (TV Guide) and VOD categories load correctly.
1 . Select: “Add User” or “Login with Xtream Codes API.”
2 . Enter Connection Details:
- Any Name: TiviStation
- Username: (Provided in your email)
- Password: (Provided in your email)
- Server URL: (Provided in your email)
3 . Click: “Add User” or “Login.”
Pro Tips for Apple TV Users

- Update Regularly: Ensure your player app is updated via the App Store to maintain compatibility with our latest server streams.
🚀 How to Setup Your TiviStation Subscription on Windows (2026 Latest)
Windows offers the most powerful ways to stream TiviStation, allowing for multi-screen viewing and high-bitrate 4K playback. In 2026, the best options involve either native Microsoft Store apps or professional desktop software.

For the best experience on Windows 10 or 11, choose between these two top-rated methods.
- Option A: MyIPTV Player (The Free Way)
- Available directly from the Microsoft Store.
- Best for: Users who want a clean, integrated Windows experience without downloading external files.
- Option B: IPTV Smarters Pro (The Premium Way)
- Download the official .exe from the Smarters website or a trusted provider.

Step 2: Connecting to TiviStation
Regardless of the app you choose, the connection process uses the Xtream Codes API for maximum stability.
1 . Open your chosen app and select “Add New Playlist” or “Login with Xtream Codes API”.
2 . Enter the details from your TiviStation welcome email:
- Any Name: TiviStation
- Username: (Provided in your email)
- Password: (Provided in your email)
- Server URL: (Provided in your email)

Pro Tips for PC Streaming
- Use Hardware Acceleration: In your app settings, ensure “Hardware Decoding” is enabled. This uses your computer’s GPU to handle the 4K video, keeping your PC cool and the stream smooth.
- VLC Integration: If a specific channel won’t play, many Windows IPTV players allow you to “Select External Player.” Choosing VLC Media Player often fixes codec issues.
- VPN Protection: Just like on Firestick, using a VPN on Windows prevents ISP throttling during major live sports events.
🚀 How to Setup Your TiviStation Subscription on Roku (2026 Latest)
Roku remains a closed ecosystem, but in 2026, the best way to watch TiviStation is through officially sanctioned players in the Roku Channel Store. This avoids the need for complex “developer mode” hacks and ensures the best stability.
Step 1: Choose Your Player
Search for these specific apps in the Roku Channel Store. We have categorized them by the “Free” vs. “Premium” experience.
- Option A: IPTV Smarters Player (The Free Way) * Still the #1 free choice for Roku users. It’s reliable and easy to navigate.
- Search for: IPTV Smarters Player (Developed by Smarters Vision).
- Option B: Hot Player or IPTV Pro (The Premium Way) * These apps often offer a smoother interface and better 4K optimization for the latest Roku Ultra and Roku TVs.
- Search for: Hot Player or IPTV Pro.
Step 2: Connecting to TiviStation
Once you open your chosen app, use the Xtream Codes API method. It is the most stable connection for 2026 servers.
1 . Open your chosen app and select “Add New Playlist” or “Login with Xtream Codes API”.
2 . Enter the details from your TiviStation welcome email:
- Any Name: TiviStation
- Username: (Provided in your email)

🚀 How to Setup Your TiviStation Subscription on MAG Box
MAG Boxes (MAG 250, 254, 322, 544, etc.) are classic IPTV devices known for their stability. Unlike other devices, MAG boxes use a Portal URL tied to your device’s MAC Address.
Step 1: Locate Your MAC Address
Before you begin, you must provide your MAC Address to TiviStation support so they can activate your device on our servers.
- Look for a sticker on the bottom of your MAG box.
- It will look like this: 00:1A:79:XX:XX:XX.
- Send this MAC address to TiviStation.tv/contact before proceeding.

2 . Navigate to System Settings.
Step 3: Configure Portals
1 . Select Servers.
2 . Select Portals.
3 . Portal 1 Name: Type TiviStation.
4 . Portal 1 URL: Enter the Portal URL provided in your TiviStation welcome email.

- Incorrect Time: If your TV Guide (EPG) is wrong, go to System Settings > Localization and set your correct time zone.
