What Is Xtream Codes?
Xtream Codes is an IPTV server management system that acts as the API (Application Programming Interface) between your IPTV provider's servers and your player app. It handles:
- User authentication (your username and password)
- Channel list delivery (all live channels organized by group)
- EPG data (14-day program guide, auto-matched to channels)
- VOD library (movies organized by genre)
- Series (TV shows with season and episode navigation)
- Catch-up TV (replay past broadcasts)
When you enter your Xtream Codes credentials into TiviMate or IPTV Smarters, the app connects to the API and pulls all of this data in one step — no separate setup for EPG, VOD, or series.
Your Xtream Codes Credentials Explained
| Credential | What It Is | Example |
|---|---|---|
| Server URL | Your provider's media server address | http://server.example.com:8080 |
| Username | Your unique account identifier | jsmith2026 |
| Password | Your account password | abc123xyz |
All three are provided in your provider's welcome email after subscribing. Keep them private — they are tied to your subscription and connection limit.

Frequently Asked Questions
Xtream Codes is an IPTV server management API used by most providers. It delivers channels, EPG, VOD, series, and catch-up to your app using three credentials: Server URL, Username, and Password. Your app connects once and gets everything automatically.
The server URL is your provider's media server address — e.g., http://server.example.com:8080. It's the entry point for the API. The port (8080, 80, or others) varies by provider. Your welcome email contains the exact URL.
TiviMate: + Add Playlist → Xtream Codes → enter Server URL → Username → Password → Next → Finish. Channels, EPG, VOD, and series all load automatically in 1–3 minutes.
IPTV Smarters: Add New User → Xtream Codes API → Username → Password → Server URL → Add User. Everything loads automatically — no separate EPG URL needed.
Yes for most users. Xtream Codes auto-loads EPG, VOD, series, and catch-up in one step. M3U requires a separate XMLTV URL for EPG and often misses series. M3U's only advantage is compatibility with any player including VLC and Kodi.
