Using a MAG device

This works the following way: your MAC device gets activated on, for example iptvserver.demo and you will setup your portal to connect with that same server: iptvserver.demo.

Your URL contains the IPTV server, your username and password. This URL is personal, anyone with this URL can get access to your IPTV account. Do not share it on public forums.

How does it look?

Most M3U URL’s look like this – the bold parts will be replaced by your actual details in the format below. http://line.hi-ott.net/get.php?username=USER&password=PASS&type=m3u_plus&output=ts
