Flix IPTV Setup Tutorial: Complete Installation & Configuration Guide

Configuring the **flix iptv** player is one of the easiest ways to stream live television channels on your Smart TV or Firestick. With its clean layout and fast navigation, the app is highly popular among cord-cutters. However, because the app does not host any streams itself, you must upload your own playlist to get access.

In this guide, we show you how to install the app on Samsung, LG, and Firestick devices, explain how to retrieve your MAC address, and walk you through uploading your playlist link.

Understanding the Flix IPTV Application

The player is a dedicated media player available on Tizen OS (Samsung), webOS (LG), Android TV, and Fire OS. It offers support for M3U links, features an Electronic Program Guide (EPG) layout, and lets you customize subtitles and audio tracks.

Please note that the app offers a 7-day free trial. After the trial period ends, you must pay a one-time activation fee of around 7.99 EUR on their official activation website to use the app permanently. This activation fee goes directly to the application developers, not to your subscription provider.

How to Install Flix IPTV on Smart TVs (Samsung & LG)

Installing the player on your Smart TV is simple since it is hosted in the official TV application stores:

1. Turn on your Smart TV and open the application store (Samsung App Store or LG Content Store).
2. Use the search bar to search for the player name.
3. Select the application from the search results and click Install.
4. Once installed, open the application. Write down the Mac Address shown on the screen (formatted as XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX).

Sideloading on Amazon Firestick & Fire TV

Because the application is sometimes not listed in the Amazon App Store, you must sideload the APK using the Downloader app:

1. Go to Settings > My Fire TV > Developer Options and enable Install Unknown Apps for the Downloader application.
2. Open Downloader and enter the direct APK download code or URL for the player.
3. Download the file and click Install.
4. Open the player and navigate to the settings page to find your MAC Address.

Detailed steps and pictures are available in our firestick setup guide.

Uploading Your Playlist link via the App Portal

Once you have your MAC Address, you need to upload your M3U playlist link to the application database:

1. Go to the official player website (https://flixiptv.eu/mylist) on your computer or phone.
2. Enter the MAC Address of your TV or Firestick in the designated field.
3. Paste the M3U playlist URL provided by your subscription provider in the **M3U Link** field.
4. Click Send. Restart the player app on your TV to load the channel categories.
