IPTV M3U Playlist & EPG TV Guide Setup Guide

Understanding how M3U links, Xtream Codes API credentials, and EPG TV guides function is key to getting the most out of your ThunderTv IPTV subscription.

What is an M3U Playlist URL?

An M3U playlist is a formatted text file URL that contains the streaming addresses and channel names for your 35,000+ live TV channels and VOD titles. Simply paste your unique M3U link into your IPTV player app to load your entire library instantly.

What is Xtream Codes API?

Xtream Codes API is the easiest login format for IPTV players. Instead of typing long URLs, you simply input three parameters: Server URL (e.g. http://thunder-tv.shop:8080), Username, and Password. Your app auto-downloads the M3U channel list and EPG guide automatically.

Electronic Program Guide (EPG) Setup

EPG provides real-time channel schedules, show descriptions, episode details, and upcoming program notifications. Thunder Tv includes auto-updating EPG URLs covering North American, European, and Asian television broadcasts.
