I’m checking on that right now..Are we down again?
Kodi using PVR is a great option for PC. I've tried Perfect Player on PC and didn't like it. I have a program called Simple TV also installed. This program is self contained meaning no files are written to your PC program folders. This makes it easy to try and leaves no residual junk on the PC if removed. As for EPG, in Tivimate you can add a backup source to work with any and all playlists you create. M3u4u.com is a perfect resource (at least for US viewers) for a free EPG source. It fills in anything missing from the Gamers built-in EPG. Husham also has a blog post on the main site for other EPG sources.For Windows PC, I recommend use Kodi and PVR IPTV as you may on the Amazon Firestick. I also have used VLC, but the Favorite Tab on Kodi remains my favorite way to go on both Windows and Android platforms. Over on the firestick, both TiviMate and IPTV Smarters are installed as well. If you're not a Kodi fan, either option is quite nice. As for the EPG; I"m with all of you. Rare it works.
If you like Smarters try turning the decoding option to "native". It's one of the menu options, I can't remember off the top of my head but it's easy to find. It got rid of the choppy picture and it looks great. I still prefer Tivimate (paid version $5/year) but Smarters is a good free android player with the right settings applied. FYI I am using Android TV on an Nvidia Shield Pro.On windows machine I started using MYIPTV from the windows 10 store (free). It works pretty well.
Android; I switched to XCIPTV, provides a cleaner picture than Smarters.
You need an application to run the service.
Sorry but I can't recommend Kodi for IPTV at all!!! Especially for the services many here use that have thousands of channels and cause Kodi to take 10 minutes to load all of them with EPG. The ability to edit and save favorites is cumbersome and just plain awful. Perfect player isn't really all that much better truth be told.For Windows PC, I recommend use Kodi and PVR IPTV as you may on the Amazon Firestick.

kodi was good.. And emphasis on the word WAS . NOW FUCK THAT SHIT APP.Sorry but I can't recommend Kodi for IPTV at all!!!

Kodi is fine when you have custom created your own m3u that only has the groups and channels you want but removes everything you will never watch.
And doing that in Kodi itself is just a Pig F***! The only Kodi unit of mine that uses it forced me to load the m3u file in VLC where I could easily delete all the crap to severely reduce the load times and then use the channel remapper to get them in the order I want.
And it works for as long as the links on the original m3u file don't change. Which happens more often than you think.
KODI is still amazing for Movies and TV Shows despiate that it takes 10 -30 minutes to loads up.
( yes I said it .. 30 minutes to load its shit )
ok i have few more than three addons.. .... plus all the other odd addons.. ..... no more comments....LOL I'll bet you have a quite a few addons for it to take that long! LOL I have only three or four because Seren and Gaia do it all for me with PM.
But I also have 30tbs of network storage for my own vast media collection and it only takes about 3 minutes to load up.
I do not use Kodi for IPTV at all anymore other than that one machine no one really uses.
And I second the vote for IPTV SMarters although I do with Tivimate made a PC version as I am loving that app on my android at the moment.
I’ll DM youhey could someone send me the new billing link please
Tell us how you really feel Husham...kodi was good.. And emphasis on the word WAS . NOW FUCK THAT SHIT APP.
honestly that is not an IPTV app any more..

For my use, I found Windows Smarters navigation limited and cumbersome to use; kodi very slow and took a while to load EPG data, and VLC lacking in EPG ease of use plus navigation issues. I have not tried stream player, but MYIPTV is simple and it works.my iptv seriousely.
There many more apps better for windows here is list that work perfectly with most IPTV companies
https://www.husham.com/best-iptv-software-for-windows-10/but bottom line IPTV Smarters for windows and IPTV Stream player ..
MIC DROP
Mine too. I have a backup service epg that I added to Gamers as additional epg service and had to remove it to see that Gamers epg was down. I use Tivimate Premium also.my epg is down
I agree Kodi can take some time to populate the full EPG but it's not bad if you have decent processing power, certainly NOT 30 minutesSorry but I can't recommend Kodi for IPTV at all!!!

LOL shave off a whole 8 minutes!I agree Kodi can take some time to populate the full EPG but it's not bad if you have decent processing power, certainly NOT 30 minutesalthough anything over 30 seconds feels like 30 minutes these days! At M3u4u you can pretty easily use the website to shave down the M3u link and the EPG. It will create a link that you can then put into Kodi to cut that load time to about 22.5 minutes!
I agree !! If you are going to us the PC just run an emulator. If I am testing out apks and such I use LDPlayer and it helps keep me from installing and uninstalling tons of apks into android. The LDPlayer or other emulators will let you do it all and not mess up things on your android box.I know some people may not have a choice but to use a PC. But honestly PC should not be used just for iptv. The Android devices are amazing fire stick and Nvidia shield just the most fantastic devices. Android TV boxes and such as the km9 is so simple and so easy and it's more flexible and of course cheaper.
But these days we should refer ourselves that we are watching iptv for the purpose of TV so it might be best to always go for or Android TVs.
Already with Android operating system as well as Android TV OS you can play and watch and everything else right there and then with just a TV that you normally should be using
But if you must use a PC there are other options then kodi there is in fact so many different options that we should not be restricting ourselves to one application
And we should always try different options for quality and the best streams available
That's it another mic drop. Boom
Which service you recommend now sir?I know some people may not have a choice but to use a PC. But honestly PC should not be used just for iptv.

Thanks for the heads up on LDPlayer....I agree !! If you are going to us the PC just run an emulator.

i noticed ldplayer has updated its android version to equal bluestacks, does the screen grab button now record vid and sound too?You are welcome
I wish I could answer your question but I really only use it for testing apk's before I try them on my Phone or Android TV box.i noticed ldplayer has updated its android version to equal bluestacks, does the screen grab button now record vid and sound too?
I completely agree!!! It has potential but the buffering and channels not loading makes me want to do the same. 24/7 has alot of my shows but either no sound or no picture.Im still with gamemasters (if thats what they're still called)..but decided to try VSTREAMS...absolutely HORRID service. Buffering left and right..basic cable channels not coming up..what a joke. I canceled my subscription after about 20 minutes and requested a refund. Still waiting..guess ill have to dispute it with Paypal.. Stay FAR AWAY from Vstreams..I noticed they're not even on this forum anywhere, now I know why.
