Setup guide

OTT Navigator is free to download. The Xiaomi Mi Box S decodes 4K, so 4K feeds play at full resolution on a 4K screen. You pay once for the plan length you choose; nothing renews on its own, and you have 7 days to ask for a refund.

OTT Navigator on Xiaomi Mi Box S: Prep, in four lines

  • Your login from WhatsApp: server URL (with port), username and password
  • Unknown apps allowed for Downloader, only if Google Play does not list the app
  • Plan on about 10 Mbps for each HD stream and 25 Mbps for each 4K stream
  • A faster way to type: a USB or Bluetooth keyboard, or the remote app on your phone

Installing OTT Navigator

OTT Navigator on Xiaomi Mi Box S: Installing OTT Navigator

  • Pick a plan length, send the order on WhatsApp, and keep the reply open: it holds the server URL, username and password.
  • Search Google Play for OTT Navigator with the remote or the voice button and install it. Where Play doesn't carry it, Downloader can fetch it from the developer's site once unknown apps are allowed.
  • In OTT Navigator, pick the Xtream Codes or XC API option, then type the server URL, username and password from your WhatsApp message. All three are case-sensitive.
  • Give the first sync a couple of minutes, then hide the groups you never use and favorite the rest.

After you sign in

OTT Navigator shows a loading bar while it pulls the channel list, then opens on its home screen. Live TV, movies and series appear as separate sections, and the guide fills in over the next minute or two. On the Xiaomi Mi Box S, the first load is the slowest.

Settings that help on the Xiaomi Mi Box S

  • Turn on frame-rate matching in the box's display settings so 60fps sports don't judder.
  • Use the Ethernet port if your box has one.
  • Set the output resolution to match the TV; a 4K signal on a 1080p TV just adds work.
  • Guide refresh: set the EPG to update daily so listings never run out.

Troubleshooting

OTT Navigator on Xiaomi Mi Box S: Troubleshooting

  • "Invalid credentials": retype the server URL with http:// and the port, and check capital letters; the username and password are case-sensitive.
  • Picture but no sound: set the Xiaomi Mi Box S's audio output to stereo or PCM; some soundbars refuse surround passthrough from IPTV feeds.
  • Guide off by an hour or more: check the Xiaomi Mi Box S's time zone first, then the EPG offset in OTT Navigator.
  • Channels but no guide: refresh the EPG in OTT Navigator's settings, or give it a few minutes after the first sign-in.
