Setup guide

IBO STB is a paid app; its fee goes to the developer, separately from your IPTV plan. On a phone or laptop screen, HD feeds already look sharp; 4K only pays off on a 4K display. There's no contract and no card on file waiting to be charged again: plans are prepaid, with a 7-day refund window.

Installing IBO STB

IBO STB on Chromebook: Installing IBO STB

  • Choose a plan on the pricing page and order on WhatsApp; your server URL, username and password arrive in about 60 seconds.
  • Open the Play Store on the Chromebook and install IBO STB; it runs as an Android app in its own window.
  • Find the MAC address in IBO STB's profile settings and send it to us on WhatsApp so it can be registered.
  • Paste the portal URL we reply with into IBO STB'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 STB 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.

If IBO STB won't cooperate

IBO STB on Chromebook: If IBO STB won't cooperate

  • "Portal not found" or a blank screen: check the URL, including any trailing /c/, and confirm the MAC was registered.
  • Guide off by an hour or more: check the Chromebook's time zone first, then the EPG offset in IBO STB.
  • Buffering on sports only: run a speed test on the Chromebook. Below about 25 Mbps, use the HD version of the channel.
  • Channels but no guide: refresh the EPG in IBO STB's settings, or give it a few minutes after the first sign-in.

Tune it for the Chromebook
