HotPlayer requests a playlist
On first launch HotPlayer reports no playlist and displays a device ID alongside hotplayer.app/upload. Leave the screen where it is.

Register the playlist at hotplayer.app/upload
From a browser, open hotplayer.app/upload. Set the source to Xtream Codes, supply the server URL, username and password from your activation email, and save.
The upload page is a website rather than part of the app, so a phone, tablet or computer is required for this step.

Return to the app and select Refresh
Back in HotPlayer, choose Refresh. The saved playlist is picked up straight away.

Playback time
The channel list, films and series load in. Select a channel to begin playback.
Installing HotPlayer on Android TV: what is different
Android TV and Google TV boxes install HotPlayer from the Google Play Store on the device — not from your phone's Play Store.
If HotPlayer is not on Play for your box, Android TV does allow sideloading: install a downloader app, then enable install-from-unknown-sources for it in Settings.
Most Android TV remotes have no pointer. HotPlayer is far easier to drive if it supports D-pad navigation, which is why it is recommended here.
Your Fast IPTV login details (username, password & server URL, M3U link or MAG portal URL) are in the activation email we send right after checkout. Lost it? Contact support and we'll resend it.
