TiviMate Setup Guide UK: Step-by-Step Playlist & EPG Configuration
TiviMate is widely considered the gold-standard IPTV player for Amazon Fire TV Stick, NVIDIA Shield, and Android/Google TV in the United Kingdom. This guide walks you through installing TiviMate, logging in via Xtream Codes API, and optimising your UK EPG and playback settings.
Key Steps & Recommendations
Install TiviMate on Your Device
On Android TV / Google TV, install 'TiviMate IPTV Player' directly from the Google Play Store. On Amazon Firestick, open the Downloader app and install the official TiviMate APK.
Choose 'Add Playlist' > 'Xtream Codes'
Open TiviMate and select 'Add Playlist'. Always choose 'Xtream Codes' rather than a raw M3U link — Xtream Codes automatically imports Live TV, VOD Movies, Series, and the UK EPG guide together.
Enter Your Server Address, Username & Password
Type the exact Server URL (including http://), Username, and Password from your welcome message. Tick 'Include VOD' and click Next.
Fine-Tune EPG & Buffer Size for UK Broadband
Once loaded, go to Settings > EPG and set 'Update on app start' to On. Under Settings > Playback > Buffer size, 'Medium' or 'Large' works best for smooth 4K sport streams.
