[Sticky] 🚨 IPTV Help Thread - READ BEFORE POSTING! 🚨

Welcome to the IPTV troubleshooting hub!

This is the place to get help with buffering, black screens, EPG issues, and other common IPTV problems. Before asking for help, please do these quick checks—it’ll save everyone time and get you a faster fix!

🔧 Basic Checks (Do These FIRST!)

1. Test with a VPN – Some ISPs throttle IPTV. Try a different server location.

2. Swap Your DNS – Use Google (8.8.8.8) or Cloudflare (1.1.1.1).

3. Check Your M3U/Portal in VLC – If it works there, the issue is likely your app or device.

4. Try Another IPTV App – (TiviMate, Smarters, Kodi, etc.) to rule out app-specific bugs.

5. Test Internet Stability – Run a speed test while streaming. If YouTube/Netflix works fine, the problem isn’t your connection.

6. Contact Your Reseller – They control your sub! Give them 24-48 hours to respond before posting here.

📝 How to Post for Help

DO:
✅ Include error messages (e.g., "403 Forbidden," "No Stream Available")
✅ Name your device + app (e.g., "Fire Stick 4K + TiviMate 4.7")
✅ Say what you’ve already tried (e.g., "Switched DNS, tested in VLC—works there")

DON’T:
❌ Just say "Not working!" – Be specific.
❌ Skip the checks above – We’ll ask you to do them anyway.
❌ Blame the community if you didn’t contact your reseller first.

💡 Pro Tip

"If it works in VLC but not your app, clear the app’s cache/data or reinstall it."
