How to Set Up IPTV on Windows PC

On a Windows PC you use the regular IBO Player (there is no Pro version for Windows). You download the programme from the developer’s website and send us two values – we add the playlist.

What you need

  • Windows 10 or 11
  • Internet from 16 Mbps for HD
  • WhatsApp on your phone or PC
  • A subscription (purchase or 24h trial)

Step by step: how to set up IPTV on Windows PC

Tip: on a PC you can also use the free VLC player and open the M3U link from our WhatsApp message (Media → Open Network Stream).

Alternative: VLC player with an M3U link

VLC is free for Windows. Open “Media → Open Network Stream” and paste the M3U link we send you via WhatsApp. VLC shows the channels as a playlist – without a TV guide, but quick and easy.

Fixing problems on Windows PC

  • Windows blocks the installation

    If “Windows protected your PC” appears, click “More info” → “Run anyway” – but only if you downloaded the file from the official website.

  • The picture stutters

    Close other demanding programmes, connect the PC by Ethernet and update your graphics driver.

  • No sound

    Check the default audio output in Windows (speaker icon at the bottom right) and the volume in the programme.

FAQ: IPTV on Windows PC

Is there IBO Player Pro for Windows?

No, Windows only has the regular IBO Player. It works the same way with a MAC address and device key.

Can I watch on PC and TV?

You can set up both devices, but one subscription is valid for one device at a time.

Do I need a fast graphics card?

No. Any current PC is enough for HD. For 4K the computer shouldn’t be more than a few years old.
