Streaming sticks and boxes
Firesticks, Android TV boxes, Shield and Chromecast with Google TV install a player from a store. The older Chromecast that only mirrors a phone does not. Xbox and PlayStation are left off the supported list because a working player is unconfirmed.
Smart televisions
Samsung from 2018 and LG on webOS 4 use a store app and a MAC address. Sony, Philips, TCL and Hisense sets follow the Android TV guide when they run Android TV or Google TV. A badge that only says “smart” is not enough.
Phones, computers and set-top boxes
Phones are ideal for a test and awkward for a whole match. Windows, Mac and Linux can use VLC. MAG and Formuler boxes use a portal instead of an app store. Roku is not natively supported: mirror a phone, or use a Firestick on that HDMI port.
Connections and speed
Installing the app on five devices does not mean five screens can play together. The plan allows 1, 2, 3 or 4 simultaneous screens, on Standard or Premium. See pricing. HD needs about 10 Mbps held steady. 4K needs about 25 Mbps. Pause large downloads on the same line during a match.
Device questions
Do I need a new box?
Usually not. A Firestick, a recent Samsung or LG TV, an Apple TV or an Android TV box is enough. Buy another device only if yours is in the “not supported” rows.
Does Roku work?
Not natively. Roku cannot install these IPTV players. Use screen mirroring from a phone, or plug in a Firestick, if that television is the one you want to watch on.
Will it work on Xbox or PlayStation?
Support is limited and unconfirmed. We do not publish console steps, and you should not buy a console for this service. Use a supported streaming device instead.
How many devices can watch at once?
That is the screen count on the plan, not the number of apps you install. One screen plays at a time on a 1-screen plan. You can choose up to 4 screens on the pricing page.
What speed do I need?
A steady 10 Mbps is enough for HD. 4K wants about 25 Mbps, with room left if other people are on the Wi-Fi. Ethernet or 5 GHz is more reliable than 2.4 GHz.
Which smart TVs are too old?
Samsung sets before 2018 and LG sets before webOS 4 often cannot install the players. Those homes are better with a Firestick or a Chromecast with Google TV.
