Your checklist
- A Samsung or LG television, with Smart IPTV taken from its own app store
- The MAC that Smart IPTV displays on its opening screen
- Your Zyminex M3U link, ideally a version cut down to your countries
- A phone or laptop with a browser, for siptv.app/mylist

Installation, then the guide
Decide between Smart IPTV and Smarters on this TV
Both apps run on Samsung and LG. Smart IPTV takes an M3U link, holds one playlist at a time and, after a seven-day trial, asks a small one-time activation per television, paid to its developer. IPTV Smarters, from the same TV store, signs in with the Xtream Codes login and keeps catch-up in a section of its own. Catch-up works most reliably through the Xtream login rather than a bare M3U link, so if replaying last night matters, choose Smarters and follow its guide instead. If live channels and tonight's listings are what you want, carry on here.
Put the app on the TV and copy down its MAC
Both the Samsung and the LG store list the app as Smart IPTV. Install it and start it once; its opening screen displays a MAC address. Photograph it or write it down, colons included, because the next steps happen on a different device and every character counts.
Ask for a playlist cut to your countries
Smart IPTV reads every line of the playlist before it shows anything, and a full 25,000+-channel list is a long read for a television's processor. Before uploading, ask support on WhatsApp for a playlist trimmed to the countries your household actually watches. A shorter list loads faster, scrolls faster and gives you a guide you can read from the sofa. If you later want more, ask for a wider cut; nothing is taken out of your subscription.
Send the playlist to the TV at siptv.app/mylist
Go to siptv.app/mylist in the browser of a phone or laptop and key in the MAC character for character. The URL box takes your M3U link. Tick the Keep online box, then press Send. Keep online leaves the link live instead of storing a one-off copy, so the channel list stays in step with our side without another upload.
Reopen Smart IPTV on the television
Quit the app fully on the TV, then start it again. The channels load from the playlist, and the listings come with them. Allow a minute on the first run; if nothing has appeared by then, restart once more before deciding something is wrong.
Set the television clock for the guide
Smart IPTV shows the listings against the television's own clock. In the TV's general settings, set the time automatically or choose your time zone, and check that daylight saving is applied. Then reopen the app and compare a program you know, such as an evening news bulletin, with what the guide says about it.
Pay the app's one-time fee when its trial ends
Smart IPTV runs free for its first seven days on each set. From then on it wants a single activation payment for that television, made at siptv.app/activation. The money goes to whoever develops Smart IPTV; Zyminex never sees it, has no part in it, and your subscription is unaffected either way. A second television means a second activation.
Check the guide against tonight's schedule
Three checks finish the job. The channels you watch are in the list and show now and next in the guide. The times match the clock and a program you know. And after the TV has been switched off at the wall and back on, the playlist is still there. Catch-up is not part of this check; if you want it, IPTV Smarters on the same television is the place to look.
Problems we see on this one
Channels play, but the guide is empty
The listings arrive with the playlist, so first allow a minute and restart the app. If they are still missing, the link may be an old one, sent before a change to your plan. Ask support on WhatsApp to confirm your current M3U link and that the guide is attached to it, then send it to the TV again at siptv.app/mylist.
The old channel list is still showing
Smart IPTV keeps one playlist per television, and a new upload replaces the last. If the old channels remain, the upload probably went to a mistyped MAC, or the app has not been restarted since. Check the MAC against the TV screen, send the link again, then close and reopen the app.
The list takes ages to scroll
A full playlist is heavy going for a television processor. Ask support on WhatsApp for a version of the playlist that holds only your countries, send it to the TV at siptv.app/mylist in place of the full one, and restart the app. The channels left out are still part of your subscription and come back whenever you ask for a wider cut.
A payment screen appears after a week
That is the end of the Smart IPTV trial, not a problem with your Zyminex account. The one-time activation for that television is paid at siptv.app/activation, to the app's developer. Prefer not to pay? IPTV Smarters, in the same TV store, signs in with your Xtream login and is free.
Listings are an hour early or late
The television clock is on the wrong zone or missed a daylight saving change. Set the time automatically in the TV settings, or choose the correct zone, then restart Smart IPTV and compare a program you know. The guide itself is fine; the TV is reading it against the wrong clock.

IPTV on Smart IPTV (SIPTV): short answers
Is SSIPTV another name for Smart IPTV?
No, it is a different app. Separate developers built two players that do the same job almost identically, hence the confusion over the names. Smart IPTV takes the playlist through siptv.app/mylist against the TV's MAC, as described here. SSIPTV can be handed a link directly on the television. Either one plays a Zyminex M3U link, so install whichever your TV store offers.
Does Smart IPTV do catch-up?
Do not count on it. Catch-up works most reliably through the Xtream Codes login, and Smart IPTV works from an M3U link. To replay programs that already aired on a Samsung or LG, install IPTV Smarters from the same store, sign in with your Xtream details and use its catch-up section.
Can one TV hold two playlists in Smart IPTV?
No. Smart IPTV keeps one playlist per television, and sending a second replaces the first. If two people want different countries, ask support for one filtered M3U that covers both, which keeps the list short enough to scroll and the guide quick to load.
Why does my list not show all 25,000+ channels?
If you asked support for a playlist filtered to your countries, the list holds only those, and that is the point: a television app reads a shorter list faster and the guide stays readable. The rest of the line-up is still in your subscription. Ask for a wider cut, or use a player signed in with Xtream Codes to browse all of it.
