One of the best things about the all-in-one IPTV model is that you often need no extra hardware at all. If you bought a television in the last few years, the odds are good that it is a Smart TV with its own app store — and that means you can run One IPTV directly on the set, add your subscription, and start watching live channels, sport and on-demand without ever plugging anything into the HDMI port.
This guide covers exactly how to set up One IPTV on a Smart TVacross the three platforms that matter — Samsung's Tizen, LG's webOS, and Android TV / Google TV — and what to do in the one case where your TV cannot help itself. If you want the wider picture of what the model is and everything it includes, start with the complete One IPTV guide; this page is the Smart TV chapter.

Can your Smart TV run One IPTV?
Almost every Smart TV can run One IPTV — the only thing that changes is which app you use to do it. Your TV runs an operating system, and that OS decides which IPTV player apps are available. There are three mainstream platforms plus a catch-all for everything older, and the table below shows the right app for each:
| TV platform | App to use | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Samsung Smart TV (Tizen) | Smart IPTV or IBO Player | Installs from the Samsung app store on 2017+ models — no extra hardware |
| LG Smart TV (webOS) | Smart IPTV or IBO Player | Native install from the LG Content Store on modern sets |
| Android TV / Google TV | TiviMate or IPTV Smarters Pro | Best experience overall — full EPG straight from Google Play |
| Older or other Smart TVs | Add a Firestick or Android box | Any TV with a spare HDMI port becomes a full IPTV machine |
The important takeaway: a Samsung or LG set from roughly 2017 onwards, and any Android TV or Google TV, needs nothing but a player app you download for free. Only genuinely old TVs, or closed platforms like Roku TV and some Vizio models, require the small extra step of a streaming stick — covered at the end. Whichever route you take, your One IPTV app choice determines the layout, the guide and the favourites, so it is worth picking the right one for your platform.
Samsung (Tizen) setup
Samsung Smart TVs run Tizen, and the go-to players are Smart IPTV and IBO Player. Both load your One IPTV playlist or Xtream Codes login and present a tidy channel grid with a full EPG. Here is the quickest path:
- Open the Samsung app store (the Apps / Smart Hub tile) on your TV and search for Smart IPTV or IBO Player. Install it.
- Launch the app and note your MAC address. Smart IPTV shows a MAC address and a device key on first run — you will use it to link your playlist.
- Add your One IPTV subscription. Either enter your Xtream Codes login directly in IBO Player, or upload your M3U playlist URL to the Smart IPTV portal using the MAC address shown on screen.
- Let it load and start watching. The channel list, VOD library and EPG populate automatically, usually in under a minute. Pin your favourites and you are done.
That is the entire Samsung process — no box, no cables, no sideloading. For the exact playlist-versus-Xtream details that apply to every platform, our One IPTV setup guide walks through both methods step by step.
LG (webOS) setup
LG Smart TVs run webOS, and the setup mirrors Samsung almost exactly — the same two apps, Smart IPTV and IBO Player, are both in the LG Content Store:
- Open the LG Content Store from the home bar and search for Smart IPTV or IBO Player. Install your chosen app.
- Open the app and find your device ID / MAC address shown on the first screen.
- Load your One IPTV details. Enter your Xtream Codes login in IBO Player, or register your M3U playlist URL against the MAC address on the Smart IPTV portal.
- Save and refresh. The full line-up and EPG appear on the TV, ready to watch. Set your favourite channels for one-tap access.
On both Samsung and LG, the app is just the window — your One IPTV subscription is the content behind it. Add the same login to your phone or tablet and every screen in the house shows the same channels, with no extra fee.
Android TV / Google TV setup
If your Smart TV runs Android TV or Google TV — Sony, Philips, TCL, Hisense and many others do — you get the best Smart TV experience of all. These platforms run the two premium players, TiviMate and IPTV Smarters Pro, straight from the Google Play Store, so there is nothing to sideload:
- Open the Google Play Store on your TV and search for TiviMate (the best all-round choice) or IPTV Smarters Pro. Install it.
- Open the app and add a playlist.Choose "Add playlist" or "Xtream Codes login" and enter the One IPTV details you received by email.
- Let the guide build. TiviMate pulls in the 50,000+ channel line-up, the 99,000+ VOD library and a full EPG automatically.
- Customise and watch. Arrange favourites, enable catch-up on supported channels, and enjoy 4K UHD playback with the smoothest interface on any TV.
Android TV is the platform we recommend if you are buying a new set for IPTV, precisely because TiviMate runs on it natively. It is the same app millions use on a Firestick — and if you would rather add a stick to an existing TV, the One IPTV on Firestick guide covers that route in full.
Try it on your own TV first. You do not have to guess whether the picture and line-up are good enough. Tivimate offers a free 24-hour trial with no credit card — install a player on your Smart TV, load the trial, and judge the 4K quality and channels on your own screen before you pay a cent.
If your Smart TV has no compatible app
A minority of TVs cannot run a good IPTV player. Roku-powered TVs, some older Vizio and Panasonic sets, and any Smart TV more than about eight years old may have an app store that lacks Smart IPTV, IBO Player or a TiviMate equivalent. The fix is refreshingly simple and cheap: add a small streaming device to a spare HDMI port and let it do the work instead of the TV.
- Amazon Firestick 4K — the most popular choice by far. It plugs into any HDMI port, runs TiviMate and IPTV Smarters Pro, and turns even an ageing television into a full IPTV machine for the price of a takeaway.
- Android TV box — a compact box that gives you the full Google Play experience and TiviMate on any TV, ideal if you want the smoothest interface and a proper remote.
Because One IPTV is one subscription across every screen, adding a stick costs you nothing extra on the subscription side — the same login you use everywhere else simply works on the new device too. From there the setup is identical to Android TV above: install the player, add your details, and watch. You can review the current plans on the pricing page, and every plan includes the 50,000+ live channels, 99,000+ VOD titles, 4K UHD and no contract, whether you watch on the TV directly or through a stick.
Whichever platform you own, the promise of the model holds: one subscription, one app, and your Smart TV doing most or all of the work. Set it up once, and every channel, match and film lives behind a single login on the biggest screen in the house.
Frequently asked questions
Can I use One IPTV on my Smart TV without any extra device?
In most cases, yes. Samsung (Tizen) and LG (webOS) TVs run apps like Smart IPTV or IBO Player directly from their own app stores, and Android TV / Google TV sets run TiviMate or IPTV Smarters Pro natively. You only need extra hardware if your TV is older or runs a closed platform with no compatible player — in which case a cheap Firestick or Android box solves it.
Which app is best for One IPTV on a Samsung or LG Smart TV?
On Samsung Tizen and LG webOS, the two most reliable choices are Smart IPTV and IBO Player. Both let you load your One IPTV playlist or Xtream Codes login and give you a clean channel grid with a full EPG. Android TV owners get the best experience overall with TiviMate.
Does One IPTV work on Android TV and Google TV?
Yes, and it is the smoothest Smart TV setup of all. Android TV and Google TV run TiviMate and IPTV Smarters Pro straight from the Google Play Store, so you install the player, add your One IPTV subscription and start watching in a few minutes — no sideloading required.
My Smart TV has no compatible IPTV app. What do I do?
Add a small streaming device. An Amazon Firestick 4K or an Android TV box plugs into any spare HDMI port and instantly turns your TV into a full IPTV machine with TiviMate or IPTV Smarters Pro. It costs about the price of a takeaway and works on any TV made in the last 15 years.
How much does One IPTV cost to run on a Smart TV?
The subscription is the same whatever screen you watch on. Tivimate starts at $14.99/month with no contract, and one subscription covers every device in the house at once — Smart TV, phone, tablet and laptop. The player apps themselves are free or a small one-off fee, and you can test everything with a free 24-hour trial first.
Do I need a fast internet connection for One IPTV on a Smart TV?
Around 25 Mbps comfortably handles 4K UHD, and HD needs far less. If your TV is far from the router, a wired Ethernet connection or a 5 GHz Wi-Fi band keeps the picture stable. Most modern broadband is more than enough for smooth streaming across the whole 50,000+ channel line-up.
