Any LG TV running on webOS supports streaming IPTV content. If you dive into the LG Content Store, you can find a lot of IPTV players with each having its own set of features. Download the player of your choice and start streaming your favorite content. All you need to do is subscribe to any reliable IPTV provider and get the required IPTV credentials.
Best Players to Stream IPTV on LG Smart TV
As mentioned earlier, all you require is an IPTV player on your LG TV to configure your IPTV playlist and watch live & VOD content offered by your IPTV provider. Here, I have given 5 IPTV players with diversity in playlist compatibility and features. Go through and get an idea of how they work.
Room IPTV Player
This player right here supports the M3U file. If you have this particular IPTV playlist ready, follow the below steps.
1. Install the Room IPTV Player app from the LG Content Store.
2. Launch the app and get the Device Key unique to your TV.
3. Then, visit the website of Room IPTV Player (https://www.roomiptv.com/) and sign in to your account.
4. In the following steps, enter your Device Key, MAC Address, and IPTV credentials in the required space and activate it.
5. After this, the app on your LG TV will refresh and show the available movies, TV Shows, etc.
IPTV Smarters Pro
If you have Xtream Codes API or M3U URL or want to stream the data available locally on your device, install IPTV Smarters Pro.
1. Go to your LG TV’s Content Store and download the IPTV Smarters Pro app.
2. On its welcome screen, choose either Load Your Playlist or Login With Xtream API.
3. Enter your credentials in the required space and sign in to your account.
4. After this, your LG TV will start showing all the available content. If you want to watch a specific program you can use its Master Search or its EPG feature.
iboxx IPTV Player
I recommend using this player only if you have the M3U8 URL as a streaming file. Not many IPTV Players support this file format except a few like iboxx IPTV Player. Here’s how we use it to stream IPTV content.
1. Once you open the iboxx IPTV player, it will display your TV’s MAC Address and assign a unique Device Key to it. Ensure your LG TV is connected to the internet while doing this.
2. Then, visit the iboxx IPTV Player’s website (https://iboxxiptv.com/) and enter the code shown on your LG TV.
3. After this, click Login, enter the M3U8 URL, and let the app refresh on your LG TV and fetch your favorite IPTV content.
OTT Player
Some IPTV providers send streaming files in rare formats like XML, XSPF, etc. In such scenarios, OTT Player will come in handy. Apart from that, it provides analytics of your streaming data too. The following steps elaborate on its working.
1. Log in to your OTT Player account on the app and the OTT Player’s playlist website (https://ottplayer.tv/) simultaneously.
2. In the following screen, assign a Playlist Name and enter your IPTV credentials.
3. Then, select your device. In our case, choose your LG TV, which is signed into the same OTT Player account.
4. Once done, the OTT Player on your LG TV will refresh and show the IPTV content you are subscribed to.
SS IPTV Player
Here’s a free IPTV player supporting the streaming of M3U, XSPF, ASX, and PLS formats. If you have any of the above file formats, you can download this app on your LG TV and use it to stream content. Follow the below steps to do it.
