Frequently asked questions ## Finding an IPTV app on an LG TV Press the **Home** button and open the **Apps** (LG Content Store) section, then search for "IPTV". Common players on webOS include IBO Player, Smart IPTV and a Smarters app for LG TVs, depending on your model year. App stores change often, so treat app names as examples and check the store on your own device. Choose one that accepts your login type, and check its most recent update date: an app updated in the last few months is a good sign. ## Setting up IPTV on webOS 1. Install the player from the LG store and open it. 2. Note the **MAC address or device ID** if the app shows one. Some players are activated and loaded with your playlist on the developer’s website. 3. Otherwise choose **Xtream Codes** or **M3U** in the app and enter the details we send. See [Xtream Codes logins](https://streampulsetv.co.uk/iptv-setup/xtream-codes/). 4. Add the programme guide (EPG) link if needed. See [EPG setup](https://streampulsetv.co.uk/iptv-setup/epg-guide/). 5. Restart the app and test channels and the guide. ## LG settings worth changing - **Wired connection**: Settings → Network → Wired Connection (Ethernet). - **Quick Start+**: keeps the TV in a warm standby. If an app misbehaves, turn it off temporarily and switch the TV off and on to force a full restart. - **HDMI Ultra HD Deep Colour**: turn this on for the HDMI port used by a 4K stick or box, so 4K HDR passes through. - **Picture mode**: Filmmaker Mode or Cinema for films; Sports or TruMotion settings for live sport. ## When LG apps are not enough LG’s store has fewer IPTV players than Google Play, and features such as recording are limited on webOS apps. If you want [TiviMate](https://streampulsetv.co.uk/iptv-setup/tivimate/) or advanced guides, add a [Google TV or Android TV device](https://streampulsetv.co.uk/iptv-devices/android-tv/) or a [Fire TV Stick](https://streampulsetv.co.uk/iptv-devices/firestick/) to a spare HDMI port. ## Frequently asked questions **Does LG TV support IPTV?** Yes, through player apps in the LG store on webOS. App availability varies by model year. **Can I install APK files on an LG TV?** No. webOS is not Android, so APK files cannot be installed. Use an app from the LG store or add a streaming stick. **Why does my LG IPTV app freeze?** Try a full power cycle with Quick Start+ off, clear the app’s data or reinstall it, and use Ethernet if possible.
