How to Set Up IPTV on Nvidia Shield

What you need

• A Google account
• Your login details from our WhatsApp message

Step by step: how to set up IPTV on Nvidia Shield

1. 1

   Step 1

   Install TiviMate

   Open the Google Play Store on the Shield, search for “TiviMate IPTV Player” and install the app.

2. 2

   Step 2

   Add your playlist with Xtream Codes

   Start TiviMate → “Add playlist” → “Xtream Codes” and enter the server URL, username and password from our WhatsApp message.

   Step 3

   Load channels and TV guide

   TiviMate loads the complete playlist including the TV guide. On the Shield this is particularly fast.

4. 4

   Step 4

   Start watching

   Pick a channel. Under Settings → Playback you can enable automatic frame-rate matching for an especially smooth picture.

Tip: connect the Shield by Ethernet cable. For 4K channels this makes the biggest difference to a stable picture.

Fixing problems on Nvidia Shield

• The picture looks jerky despite a fast connection

  Enable frame-rate matching (AFR) in TiviMate and check in the Shield settings that “Match content resolution” is on.

• No sound on the AV receiver

  In the Shield sound settings set the audio format to “Auto” or try switching passthrough off.

• TiviMate starts slowly

  Reduce the number of groups (hide countries you don’t need). The channel list then loads faster.
