About IPTV Extreme
IPTV Extreme is an application allowing users to stream television content online. It is a popular IPTV (Internet Protocol Television) player for Android devices.
If you have an Android device with access to Google Play Store, you can get the ad-free IPTV Extreme Pro version for a one-time payment of $1.10 using your Google account.
However, for the purpose of this tutorial, we will use the Free version of IPTV Extreme, which may come with ads. If you prefer, you can download and install the IPTV Extreme Pro version instead, which is also available in this guide.
In order to use the app, it’s necessary to have an IPTV subscription. You’ll need M3U and EPG URLs from your provider to use the IPTV Extreme app.
It is the only free application that allows you to add your playlists through their IPTV Extreme Portal remotely. Once you have added these, the app will automatically download the channel playlist and their EPG, allowing you to enjoy watching your favorite channels.

How to Setup IPTV on IPTV Extreme
IPTV Extreme is an IPTV player application that supports M3U URLs and Xtream Codes API, which allows users to add TV channels to the app through these two methods.
The M3U URLs method involves adding a link to an M3U playlist file that contains a list of channels. The app will then read the playlist and display the channels to the user.
The Xtream Codes API method involves entering a username and password to access an IPTV server that uses the Xtream Codes API protocol. It will allow the app to retrieve the list of channels from the server and display them to the user.
It is important to note that IPTV Extreme provides no TV channels. Users must have access to an IPTV server that provides the channels they want to watch and then use IPTV Extreme to access and view those channels.
Click on MENU on the first screen on the IPTV Extreme app.
Now choose PLAYLISTS.
Click on ADD PLAYLIST.
Once you access the MENU on IPTV Extreme’s first screen, you will be presented with four options:
- IPTV Extreme Portal – This option allows you to add playlists remotely from the IPTV Extreme website.
- FILE or Link to Playlist – This option allows you to add previously downloaded playlists on your device or copy the playlist’s M3U URL to the input field.
- MAG Portal – This option allows you to add a virtual MAC address provided by your IPTV provider, along with their server address.
- Xtream Codes API – This option allows you to add channels using the Xtream Codes API protocol by entering a username and password for the IPTV server.
The easiest way to add a playlist to IPTV Extreme is by visiting https://iptvextreme.eu/.
However, the method of adding a playlist may vary depending on the IPTV provider and the credentials they provide you. Depending on your IPTV provider’s requirements, you can select from the options to add the playlist, such as Playlist Link, Xtream Codes Playlist, or Mag/Stalker Playlist.
It is recommended to follow the instructions provided by your IPTV provider to ensure successful playlist integration with IPTV Extreme.
To add a playlist link using IPTV Extreme Portal, you need to fill in the required fields as follows:
- MAC Address field: Enter your device’s MAC Address from the first screen of the IPTV Extreme app.
- Name field: Enter a name for your playlist, which can be any name you choose.
- Playlist link field: Enter the M3U URL of your playlist.
Once you have filled in the fields, click the Save button to add the playlist link to IPTV Extreme.
Now, go back to the IPTV Extreme app. Wait for the app to download the playlist automatically. The app will display a message indicating the number of channels and programs that have been added.
Once the playlist is downloaded, you can access a variety of channels from different countries or categories.
You should see your playlist info if you return to the PLAYLISTS section.
How to Use an External Player with IPTV Extreme
To access the settings on IPTV Extreme, click on the MENU button on the app’s first screen and then select SETTINGS from the options provided.
First, check the Use External Video Player option and then click on External Video Player to choose your favorite player.
Choose your favorite player from the list of available players installed on your device. I’ll choose the MX Player.
Now, every time you play a channel, it will be played using the MX Player or any other external video player you have chosen.
IPTV Extreme not Working Problems and Solutions
