What does iptvolt read from an M3U playlist?

The channel name, logo, group, guide id and catch-up details. An M3U file is a text list of streams: each channel has an #EXTINF line with its name and attributes, followed by the stream URL. iptvolt reads the attributes that matter for watching:

  • tvg-id links the channel to its programmes in the XMLTV guide.
  • tvg-logo (or logo) is the channel logo.
  • group-title or an #EXTGRP line is the category.
  • url-tvg, x-tvg-url or tvg-url in the #EXTM3U header point to one or more guide links.
  • catchup, catchup-source and catchup-days describe the archive, per channel or once in the header.

The parser is tolerant on purpose. A byte order mark, Windows line endings, comment lines and stray URLs don’t break the import. If a playlist mixes live channels with movie and series entries, iptvolt sorts those into Movies and Series instead of listing them as channels.

Which playlist formats and links work?

M3U, M3U8 and XSPF playlist links, playlist links that carry an Xtream username and password, and single stream URLs. Paste any of them with Paste any link and iptvolt works out the type. Stalker and MAG portal addresses are the one kind it can’t use. In detail:

You haveWhat to do in iptvolt
An .m3u or .m3u8 playlist linkPaste it as an M3U / XSPF URL or with Paste any link.
An .xspf playlist linkPaste it the same way. iptvolt reads each track’s location and album as group.
A playlist link with your username and password in itPaste it with Paste any link. iptvolt recognises it as an Xtream login and adds Movies, Series and account status.
A single stream URLPaste it with Paste any link. It becomes a one-channel source.
A Stalker or MAG portal addressNot supported. Ask your provider for an M3U link or an Xtream login.

Playing the streams

Most IPTV streams are HLS (.m3u8) or MPEG-TS. iptvolt plays them in the native player of your phone, which is also what AirPlay uses. Formats the native player can’t open, such as MKV, AVI, raw TS or RTSP, play in the built-in VLC engine. If a channel won’t start, Try other player switches between the two.

Some providers only accept a stream when the request carries a certain User-Agent or Referer. If your playlist sets those with #EXTVLCOPT, #EXTHTTP, #KODIPROP or a |User-Agent= suffix, iptvolt sends them. Channels marked as DRM-protected are shown as protected streams, because the app can’t play them. In the player, swipe to zap to the next channel without going back to the list.

Your playlist stays yours

iptvolt is a player only. It ships no channels, playlists or content, and it is not affiliated with any provider. The app fetches your playlist and streams directly from your provider. Nothing is routed through our servers. A password inside a playlist link is kept in the device keychain, not in plain app storage.

The free version keeps one source with live TV, the now and next guide, catch-up, AirPlay, Chromecast and two-screen multi-view, without ads. Pro adds unlimited sources, the full guide timeline grid and sync on up to 5 of your devices. See Free and Pro for the full list.

Questions

Does iptvolt come with an M3U playlist?

No. iptvolt is a player only. It ships no channels, playlists or content and is not affiliated with any provider. You add the M3U link from a service you are allowed to use.

Can iptvolt play M3U8 and XSPF playlists?

Yes. iptvolt reads M3U and M3U8 playlists and XSPF playlists. Paste the link and the app detects the format. It also accepts a single stream URL as a one-channel source.

Where do I add the EPG link for an M3U playlist?

In the EPG URL field when you add the playlist. It is optional: if the playlist header names a guide with url-tvg or x-tvg-url, iptvolt reads that guide on its own.

Why do some channels have no logo or guide?

Logos come from the tvg-logo attribute and guide data from the EPG link. A channel without tvg-logo has no logo. A channel without a matching tvg-id or name in the guide shows no programmes.

Can I add more than one playlist?

The free version holds one source. iptvolt Pro adds unlimited sources, so you can keep several playlists and Xtream logins side by side and switch between them.
