Hey all. I’m currently trialling out IPTV providers, and one of the things that’s putting me off entirely is the lack of decent Mac apps, specifically ones that allow for Xtream logins and not only m3u.

The provider I’m testing out suggested Smarters Lite from the iPad store – it runs fine, but it fullscreens with black borders down the sides.

Aside from that, I’ve tried IPTVnator (FOSS, so that’s great) but doesn’t actually display the content.

The only thing that works great for individual channel viewing is using Stremio with an add-on, but there’s no EPG interface there, so no channel hopping and other features.

Any suggestions?

ETA: compatibility with Apple Silicon (M1/M2) chips would be vital too.

    What do you mean it doesn’t display the content? And IPTVnator added Xtream support about 3 weeks ago with version 0.14.0

      Yep, that’s why I tried it out – because it added Xtream support. What I meant was that it downloads the channel listings fine, but when you go to play anything, nothing loads. I think it might be because it requires a string in the user agent login field (unlike most Xtream login panels).
