Setup guide

IBO Player is a paid app; its fee goes to the developer, separately from your IPTV plan. Whether it plays 4K depends on the model, so check the spec sheet before choosing 4K feeds. If it doesn't suit you, the 7-day money-back guarantee applies, and because plans are prepaid there's nothing to cancel later.

Before you start: IBO Player on Samsung Smart TV (Tizen)

IBO Player on Samsung Smart TV (Tizen): Before you start

  • The MAC address IBO Player shows in its settings, to send with your order
  • Samsung TV software updated under Settings > Support > Software Update
  • Plan on about 10 Mbps for each HD stream and 25 Mbps for each 4K stream
  • A faster way to type: a USB keyboard plugged into the TV, since the on-screen one is slow

Installing IBO Player

IBO Player on Samsung Smart TV (Tizen): Installing IBO Player

  • Pick a plan length, send the order on WhatsApp, and keep the reply open: it holds the server URL, username and password.
  • Press Home on the Samsung remote, open Apps, search for IBO Player and choose Install.
  • Find the MAC address in IBO Player's profile settings and send it to us on WhatsApp so it can be registered.
  • Paste the portal URL we reply with into IBO Player's portal settings and restart the app.
  • Give the first sync a couple of minutes, then hide the groups you never use and favorite the rest.

The first time you open it

IBO Player loads the portal on start. Expect a menu with live TV, video on demand and settings tiles, much like a MAG box. The channel list arrives first, the guide shortly after.

Troubleshooting

  • "Portal not found" or a blank screen: check the URL, including any trailing /c/, and confirm the MAC was registered.
