How to setup IPTV on Openbox?

openbox

Openbox has been one of the most popular boxes used over the years as it is affordable, simple to use and straightforward particularly if you are a CCCam user. Now as IPTV is ruling the market, some of the open box users have no choice except running the IPTV service on this setup box. What is IPTV?

Caution: RAM is something that IPTV relies on as IPTV players buffer the video first and then plays it. Openbox v8s has moderate ram and CPU, therefore after switching channels, or sometimes without any reasons, Openbox may crash. We just want you to drop your expectations while using IPTV on your Openbox IPTV Player.

Choose the channels you want to watch from the list provided by your IPTV service provider.

The well known IPTV Player app on Openbox v8s is called WebTV. You just need to import an m3u file using USB flash drive onto your Openbox v8s and the job is finished, but there are two ways that you can do this setup. The first method is a common way, uploading the file from the WebTV app menu. When that method doesn’t work or you don’t have the “Read By USB” option on WebTV App page, the m3u file must be uploaded through Upgrade page located on Tools menu of Openbox. What is M3U?

Recommendation: We suggest you rename the m3u file of your m3u line into WebTV.m3u meaning if your m3u file is like “name.m3u” you simply change “name” to “WebTV” and leave the format be as m3u. The WebTV app reads m3u files with WebTV.m3u name properly.

If you have any problems viewing the Channels we recommended that you restart your Openbox and Wi-Fi Router.

How to add IPTV channels to Openbox

Step 1: Follow these tasks: 
1-Connect the USB containing the Web.m3u file
2-Open Menu
3-Move right all the way to “Multimedia
4-From the list choose “WebTV

Enter your IPTV service provider's username and password in the app or plugin.

Step 2: If there are channels already on that list, make sure that empty by pressing the green button: Del All. Now press the yellow button to “Read By USB” then the channels will appear.

Launch the IPTV app or plugin on your Openbox receiver.

Step 3: If you don’t have the yellow option ” Read by USB”, go back to the main menu and select “Tools”.

Connect your Openbox receiver to your television using an HDMI cable.

Step 4: Now select “Upgrade By USB”.

Connect your Openbox receiver to the internet using an ethernet cable or through Wi-Fi.

Step 5: On the next page, change Upgrade Mode to “Misc Files” and from the bottom of the list choose “Select & Upgrade”. Now press OK on it.

Enter the URL of your IPTV service provider in the app or plugin. This information should be provided to you by your IPTV service provider.

Step 6: From the window that pops up, select “WebTV.m3u (Web Stream)” and you must make sure a green tik appears on the right side. Afterward, press the yellow button to Upgrade.

Install an IPTV app or plugin on your Openbox receiver. Some popular options include IPTV Player, Openbox IPTV, and Enigma2 IPTV Bouquets.

After the process is done, you will see a message saying “Upgrade Finished. Press Info Key for Result”. Now press exit twice to head back to the main menu and from Multimedia open WebTV app and the channels will appear on the list.
