How it works

From your source to your screen.

IPTVIQ is an organizing and playback layer over sources you already have — it never hosts, redistributes, or supplies content itself, at any point in this pipeline.

Source → import → catalog → playback

01
Your authorized source

Xtream account, M3U playlist, XMLTV guide, or Stalker/MAG portal you already have access to.

02
IPTVIQ imports

Categories, channels, EPG, and VOD metadata are parsed and organized locally on your Mac.

03
Organized catalog

Live TV, Guide, Movies, and Series — searchable, favoritable, profile-aware.

04
Native playback

A resilient player with Smart Recovery, Multiview, and optional DVR.

Live TV → Guide → Catch-up / DVR

A
Channel selection

Browse by category, type a channel number, or jump back with Recall.

B
Guide / mini-EPG

See what's on now and next without leaving the stream.

C
Programme information

Now/Next details per channel, pulled from your provider's guide data.

D
Catch-up / DVR, where supported

Step back through a recent broadcast, or record manually — both depend on real provider/rights conditions.

Multiple sources → one browsing experience

Xtream

An Xtream Codes–compatible account.

M3U / XMLTV

Playlist and guide files, local or remote.

Stalker / MAG / Ministra

A MAC-address–based portal.

IPTVIQ

All of the above organized into one consistent Live TV, Movies, and Series experience — switch sources without switching apps.

Household profiles → personalized, restricted viewing

1
Profile selection

Each household member picks their own profile at launch.

2
Personalized experience

Favorites, history, and Continue Watching are all scoped to that profile.

3
Kids restrictions, if applicable

An approved-content-only policy applies everywhere — Home, Search, Guide, and playback.
