How to install IPTV on Smart IPTV

29 July 2026 · 8 min read · Samsung and LG televisions

Smart IPTV registers your television by MAC address through the developer's website rather than asking for a username on the TV. That keeps the setup short, but it also means one extra step on a computer or phone.

Install the app

  • On an LG television, Smart IPTV is usually in the LG Content Store — search for it and install.
  • On a Samsung television it has been removed from the store in several regions. If it is missing, tell us your model year and we will suggest an alternative rather than sending you to an unofficial file.
  • Open the app once and note the MAC address and the device key it displays.

Register the MAC with your playlist

  1. 1On a phone or computer, open the app's activation page from the developer.
  2. 2Enter the MAC address exactly as the television shows it, including the colons.
  3. 3Paste the iptvbritish.irish playlist link into the URL field and save.
  4. 4Restart the app on the television — the channel list appears after the restart, not before.

What the licence covers

Smart IPTV charges a one-time activation for each television. That fee is the developer's, not part of your iptvbritish.irish plan, and it does not expire with your subscription.

One MAC address cannot be used on two televisions at the same time, so a second TV needs its own activation.

Common problems

  • The list does not appear after saving: the playlist URL is wrong or the app was not fully restarted. Close it from the TV's recent apps and reopen.
  • The MAC shows as not activated: the one-time fee has not gone through yet. Wait a few minutes and reload the activation page.
  • Playback stops after a while on an older TV: clear the app cache from the television settings, then reinstall if it happens again.
  • No programme guide: Smart IPTV reads the guide from the playlist where it provides one — ask support if yours looks empty.
