How to Set Up Strimo IPTV on Android & Google TV

Why Android TV is the Premier IPTV Ecosystem

Certified Android TV and Google TV devices offer native Google Play Store access, powerful hardware decoders, and direct support for advanced players like TiviMate, which provides the most TV-like electronic program guide, multi-view channel monitoring, and instantaneous channel flipping available.

Step 1: Install Your Player via Google Play Store

Unlike Firestick which often requires sideloading, Android TV devices can install top-rated media players directly:

1. On your Google TV or Android TV home screen, navigate to the Apps tab.
2. Open the Google Play Store.
3. Search for TiviMate IPTV Player (recommended) or IPTV Smarters Pro.
4. Click Install.

Step 2: Add Strimo IPTV Xtream Codes Playlist

After launching your media player:

1. Click Add Playlist.
2. Select Xtream Codes.
3. Enter any name for the playlist (e.g., Strimo Sports).
4. Input the Server URL provided by our WhatsApp support team.
5. Enter your assigned Username and Password.
6. Click Next or Apply.

Step 3: Configuring the Electronic Program Guide (EPG)

Strimo IPTV includes integrated EPG scheduling. To ensure your TV guide updates smoothly:

• In TiviMate, navigate to Settings > EPG > EPG Sources.
• Verify that the primary Strimo EPG source is set to Update on App Start or Every 12 Hours.
• Click Update EPG Now to pull match times and schedules for live sports networks.

Step 4: Optimizing Settings for Nvidia Shield & 4K Google TV

If you are using high-performance hardware like the Nvidia Shield TV Pro or Google TV 4K:

• AI Upscaling (Shield TV): Set AI Upscaling to Medium to enhance 1080p 60 FPS sports broadcasts to crisp 4K without introducing latency.
• Audio Passthrough: In player audio settings, enable Audio Passthrough if connected to an external soundbar or AVR for full surround sound.
• Ethernet Connection: For maximum stability during high-traffic sporting events, use a wired gigabit Ethernet connection.
