Android IPTV apps
Set Up Marinios IPTV with Android IPTV Apps
XCIPTV and OTT Navigator connect to Marinios IPTV using access details such as Xtream Codes login or an M3U URL. Use them on Android TV, Fire Stick, and Android mobile when TiviMate or IPTV Smarters is not available.
Note: This guide is for compatible third-party IPTV player apps. App screens, availability, and features may change depending on the app version, device, region, and app store.
These steps cover app login after install. For sideloading, app store search, and device-specific install help, use the device guides linked at the bottom of this page.
What You'll Need From Marinios IPTV
After your request is confirmed, Marinios IPTV usually sends the access details needed for setup, including a server URL, username, and password.
- Server URL Use the full URL exactly as provided, including http:// or https:// and any port if shown.
- Username Copy it exactly as sent. Usernames are usually case-sensitive.
- Password Copy it exactly as sent. Passwords are usually case-sensitive.
If your access message includes a different setup format, follow the details provided in that message or contact support before editing anything.
Before you start
Try TiviMate or IPTV Smarters first
On most Android-based TVs and sticks, TiviMate or IPTV Smarters is the better first choice. Use this guide only when neither app is available on your device.
XCIPTV
Install XCIPTV
Search Google Play for XCIPTV on Android TV or Android mobile. If it is not listed, sideload using your device guide and only from sources you trust.
Choose Xtream Codes API or M3U URL
Open XCIPTV and select Xtream Codes API if your access details include a server URL, username, and password. Choose M3U URL if you received one playlist link.
Enter your Marinios IPTV access details
Enter the server URL, username, and password exactly as provided. Add a profile name if asked (e.g. Marinios IPTV), then tap Connect, Save, or Login and wait for channels to load.
Extra spaces, missing ports, or changing http/https can prevent the playlist from loading.
OTT Navigator
Install OTT Navigator IPTV
Install OTT Navigator IPTV from Google Play on Android TV, Fire TV, or Android mobile. OTT Navigator is Android-based only.
Add an Xtream Codes or M3U provider
Add a new provider using Xtream Codes if you received server URL, username, and password. Use the M3U template if you received one playlist link. Menu labels can vary by version.
Enter your Marinios IPTV access details
For Xtream Codes, fill in:
URL address / Portal URL
Login / Username
Password
Leave API version on v2 unless login fails (then try v1). Make sure the provider is Active, then tap APPLY.
OTT Navigator is a player only — it cannot provide channels without your Marinios IPTV access details.
Finish and test playback
Test a live channel
Wait for the channel list to load, then open a live stream to confirm playback. Large playlists can take longer to index in OTT Navigator.
If login fails, re-check credentials exactly as sent or message Marinios IPTV support before changing anything.
