Setup guide

Purple Player is a paid app; its activation 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. Plans are prepaid and never auto-renew, and you have 7 days to ask for your money back.

  • Pick a plan length, send the order on WhatsApp, and keep the reply open: it holds the server URL, username and password.
  • Find Purple Player in Google Play, tap Install, and open it once the download finishes.
  • Open Purple Player on the TV and write down the MAC address and device key it shows on the start screen.

Small tweaks, smoother playback

Purple Player on Samsung Galaxy: Small tweaks, smoother playback

  • Lock rotation to landscape so the picture doesn't flip when you shift on the couch.
  • Cast or mirror to a TV when friends come over.
  • Stay on Wi-Fi for long sessions: HD uses roughly 3 GB an hour, 4K far more.
  • Playlist name: give it a clear name on the website so you can tell playlists apart.

After you sign in

After you add the playlist online and restart Purple Player, the TV shows your playlist name and starts loading channels. The first load on TV hardware can take a couple of minutes; after that, live TV, movies and series open from the home screen.

Common problems and fixes

Purple Player on Samsung Galaxy: Common problems and fixes

  • Playlist missing after you added it online: confirm the MAC on the website matches the one on screen, then restart Purple Player.
  • Picture but no sound: set the Samsung Galaxy's audio output to stereo or PCM; some soundbars refuse surround passthrough from IPTV feeds.
  • Purple Player closes on its own: clear its cache, restart the Samsung Galaxy, and reinstall if it keeps happening.
  • Buffering on sports only: run a speed test on the Samsung Galaxy. Below about 25 Mbps, use the HD version of the channel.
