Setup Steps
Step 1: Install TiviMate
Search for “TiviMate” in the Google Play Store (Android TV) or install via the Downloader app (Fire Stick). The basic version is free.
Step 2: Open TiviMate
On first launch, you’ll see a setup screen. Tap Add Playlist.
Step 3: Select M3U Playlist
Choose M3U Playlist from the options. Enter your World Media Server M3U URL when prompted.
Step 4: Name Your Playlist
Give your playlist a name (e.g., “World Media Server”) and tap Next.
Step 5: Wait for Channel Load
TiviMate will download and parse your channel list. This takes 30-60 seconds. Once complete, you’ll see your channel categories.
Step 6: Add EPG (Optional)
Go to Settings → EPG Sources → Add EPG Source, enter your XMLTV EPG URL, and save.
