Why Forkplayer does not work in 2021: reasons, what to do?


For free. Online. Comfortable.

And so, friends, we have created this site to support all users of the RemoteFork program, which is available for both Windows computers and Android phones. Our goal is to create instructions for installing a remote fork player for all smart TVs in Russian.

A little history, previously it was possible to install only Forkplayer for smart TV, and when the era of Android smartphones arrived, we decided to create an application for Windows and Android that could work with each other and create a connection. And as a result, this made it possible to transfer large files through the DLNA server to the phone, and most importantly to your smart TV. It was a huge breakthrough in the world of multimedia; our RemoteFork player application quickly took the best positions in installations and downloads for smart TVs and computers, as well as Android tablets.

  • Transfer large files from computer to smart TV
  • Setting up DNS server bypass
  • Installing and configuring plugins
  • Listening to music online and offline
  • Access to files on your computer and flash drive
  • Takes away all the load from your SmartTV (as a result, the TV works more stable!)
  • Watch movies in good quality HD and 4K without glitches or delays.

And so it’s time to move on to the most important thing - downloading the latest version of the RemoteFork player application and installing it on your computer and smartphone.

Good day, Sergey! I listened to your lesson “Ace Stream Playlist on Smart TV”. I tried to download the playlist into the OTT player using your link, the channels loaded, but did not open. I tried to insert the IP address of both the router and the Samsung ES series TV 2012), and the Lenovo tablet ( Android 4.4.2), nothing comes out, the channels are visible and there is no sound. Maybe the problem is that I was not using a computer, but a tablet (Android, but do I need Windows?). What could be the reason, and what IP should be inserted to the playlist of a tablet, TV or router through which I use the Internet? Thanks in advance for your answer!

IP computer with ace stream platform

h***p://pomoyka.lib.emergate.net/trash/ttv-list/ttv.all.iproxy.m3u - this is not a torrent TV list, but just an IP TV list. It’s written right in the file name, ttv.all.IP(. )roxy.m3u There is no need for ace stream, you can check it on your computer by disabling ace media and pasting this link into some player, a playlist with torrent links is called ttv.m3u and there are links like

#EXTINF:-1,Polsat Film (Movies) acestream://f593fd45cb887e159e4675f690044ff3cb3fc0f8 #EXTINF:-1,Polsat News 2 (General) acestream://1d5e2ca2465bce2684d8eaa4e35a3cb18838d10e #EXTI NF:-1,Polsat Sport Extra (Sport) acestream://619238d2cdf7b860990e61eeaec49549d735d49a

it is located at a different address (probably it cannot be distributed) and it cannot be fed to the OTT player in any way.

Finally the wait! An alien has appeared among us! Good luck!

Thank you Sergey for your answer and your useful lessons!

This is the second day I’ve been watching/testing torrent TV on my smart TV and this is what I want to say - the playlist is excellent, a huge number of channels for every taste, but there are very few really working and stable channels... There are channels that load and play quickly and without any problems, be it in SD or HD quality, but there are some that load, take 2-3 seconds and freeze... In general, the idea and implementation of watching TTV on a smart TV is excellent, as long as the channels are “on”. Maybe it's just me who has these problems? Please let me know how you are? Thank you!

Check out the same channels on your PC. Maybe it's all about setting up the network, but that's a completely different question.

I typed in the IP address of the computer... as you indicated... you can see the channels on the TV... they don’t turn on... ERROR... don’t you need to configure anything in the ice player itself?

Setting up and installing RemoteFork Player

The Remote Forkplayer program itself does not need to be installed on the computer, because it works in Portable mode, this is a big plus, it does not clog up the Windows system with unnecessary files and also works more stable and without glitches or freezes.

  1. And so, first of all, you need to download the latest and new version of the remote fork player, this can be done using this link. There will be an archive with files in rar format, you need to unzip the files to any folder on your computer or laptop using programs such as winrar, 7zip and other archivers.
  1. Next you need to run the RemoteFork.exe file, but only as an administrator, this is very important!

And after these actions, our player should appear in the taskbar, or rather in the tray, this will be the fork player logo icon. Congratulations, the installation of RemoteFork player has been successfully completed and the plugin is ready to use.
All you have to do is connect your smart TV (for example, SmartTV Samsung, LG, and others). We also have the opportunity to check whether the program is working correctly, to do this you need to right-click on the fork player icon and select “Open test”. If everything works correctly, then in the browser you should see such an incomprehensible inscription, don’t be alarmed, that’s it OK!

Overview of program features:

And let's talk about the capabilities of the Remote Fork player program, if you look at the size of the program, it seems that what functions can be talked about, but this was not the case. The plugin has all the necessary features that are needed to work with your TV and Android phone.

Playlists

– full support and downloading of playlists from your TV or vice versa to your computer, you will have the opportunity to save, delete and transfer from different devices your any films, music, channels that work in iptv mode. The playlist function in the remote fork player plugin works very correctly, and in a few clicks you can connect to your smart TV.

Plugins. The most important thing that is in the program is that without plugins in the fork player you will not be able to optimize the program. You will have the opportunity to download and install, and even with one click, uncheck a plugin you don’t need. Now the following plugins are installed as standard: Seasonvar, CarambaTV, AceTorrentPlay. It is also very important that the plugins work on all Windows, MacOS, Linux, arm systems.

A more complicated method

It has long been no secret for advanced users that Ace Stream can be used to watch Torrent TV, movies from torrent trackers and listen to music not only on a computer or smartphone, but also on your favorite Smart TV. This is done in different ways, depending on the TV model. It’s good when you have an Android TV BOX set-top box, or the TV has widgets for Ace Stream, or supports the Android operating system, there are no problems here, install the necessary software and use it. What to do if this is not the case? Dancing with a tambourine begins, shamanism with spells over your television receiver, and here everything depends only on the knowledge and ingenuity of the person.

But everything is not as complicated as it might seem at first glance, as they say: “the devil is not as terrible as he is painted.” You just need to have a little understanding of how it works and be able to use the devices at hand for your own purposes.

So, what do we have - SmartTV, computer or laptop, tablet or smartphone. Let's use one of these devices as a home media center to watch TV channels through Ace Stream Media.

The first important things that are necessary to implement the plan are the presence of minimal knowledge about local networks, and direct hands. What is a home local network? These are Internet devices connected to one router to connect to each other and to access the World Wide Web. A router can be our regular home router, to which computers, laptops and smartphones are connected via cables or via WI-FI. Thus, having only one line installed by our Internet provider to our home, we have the opportunity to use various devices to access the Internet.

Each device on the local network has its own IP. This is not the IP that is visible on the Internet, but an internal one that we can assign to the device ourselves, but it is no less important for the operation and exchange of information between our devices. In other words, all our Internet devices have one common external IP and their own on the home network. There are dedicated IP ranges for local networks; this is done for convenience in order to have some kind of common standard. I won’t write here about all the ranges, since in this case we don’t need them, we are only interested in household devices and the IP range allocated for them 192.168.0.1 – 192.168.255.255, which is what is used by default in most household routers.

When we connect a new device, the router assigns it its local IP automatically, using the MAC address. A MAC address, if translated into simple human language, is something like a device passport. It would be more accurate to say not the device itself, but its network card, but we will not go into details so as not to overload your brain with unnecessary information. To make it clearer for those who are far from all this, imagine a stamped number on a car engine or the serial number of your passport. A MAC address is the same thing, only in electronic form and is used to identify a device on the Internet.

Usually, by default, the router starts assigning local IPs from 192.168.0.100. That is, the first device, a computer for example, is connected, and the above ip is assigned to it. We connect a second computer or tablet, it will be assigned the following ip 192.168.0.101, we connect something else, the device will already receive ip 192.168.0.102 and so on in order. Local ip 192.168.0.1 is usually the interface of the router itself, where all the settings are.

Well, now let’s “go back to our sheep.” In order to use a computer or smartphone as an Ace Stream media center for our SmartTV, we first need to find out the local IP of the device on which the Ace Stream engine will run. You can do this by going to the router settings and looking in the “Additional settings → DCPH Server → List of DCPH clients” tab. I have a Tenda router, so I’ll show you in a screenshot, using an example, how it looks on it. But if you have a router from another manufacturer, do not be alarmed, the principle is the same everywhere, so there will not be any special differences, the main thing here is to understand the very principle of operation and actions.

As you can see, I have four devices connected to the router, each with its own IP and MAC address. At the very bottom of the table two devices are displayed - android-6317d9650e7b891b and WIN-O9UU7TERMG0, these are the ones I need. These are my Android Fonepad and Windows computer. Where “Host Name” is indicated in the table, this is the name of the device on the local network, then in the next column of the table is the local IP and the next column is the MAC address of the device. We only need to know the ip for our purposes. That is, if I use my “shovel” on Android to watch Ace Stream, then I need ip 192.168.0.102, if I use a computer, then I need ip 192.168.0.100.

To view streams from Ace Stream on SmartTV, it is not enough to know these IPs and have a playlist with links like acestream://7c6f1ed62e4d656bc087bdd0c2bcd96e611328d6, such a playlist will not give us anything and will not work. We need a specially generated playlist and the PlayList 24 website will help us with this, which will perform such generation work.

One small digression. Why will it be better to watch Ace Stream TV through an Android device than through a computer? Because no matter how super-duper a computer is, it still creates a certain noise, and Ace Stream must work for us all the time. In addition, a computer consumes much more electricity than, for example, a smartphone. It would be much more profitable to connect a charger to a silent smartphone so that the battery does not drain and leave it working with the Ace Stream Player application running in the background. You can turn off the display so that it does not light up for nothing, but it is important that the smartphone itself does not go into sleep mode; this is all done in the settings of your device. I think no one will have any problems with this, who holds their smartphone in their hands all day long. There is only one drawback to smartphones and tablets - if they are old and low-power, then you will hardly be able to watch HD quality channels.

So, first, install the Ace Stream application on your device and launch it. Then we go to the VIP user’s account on PlayList 24 and configure the local IP of the device on which the Ace Stream engine is installed and running. We take the permanent link to the playlist and insert it into your SmartTV into a regular IPTV player.

Then everything is very simple - the Ace Stream application should work on an Android device or computer, and on our Smart TV we will be able to watch streams of torrent TV channels, like regular IPTV channels.

If, when using a smartphone as a media server, any problems arise with the stability of the TV channel signal reception, then read the FAQ section with the “How to fix problems with buffering?” tab.

Enjoy watching your favorite TV channels.

UPD: At the request of VIP group users, the ability to independently enter the local IP of a device with the Ace Stream Engine has been added. Links to playlists with local IP can be copied in the VIP user’s account.

Note: playlists are only available to VIP and Golden users. If you want to pre-test how it all works, write to technical support.

Part 2: Where can I find content IDs for Ace Stream?

To watch any live video or sports, even on the Ace Stream app, you will need a Content ID. This is a long string of numbers and letters that Ace Stream uses to find any video streams and link to you.

The easiest way to find out content IDs is to type “Ace Stream Content ID basketball” into a search engine. You can write any other sports name in place of basketball or any other specific event.

Another way to find content IDs is to look at a website similar to Reddit. This source is reliable because your IDs will be verified by real people. Sites like Reddit are comparatively safer than other random search engine sites.

A few famous subreddits for getting content IDs are listed below.

  • Basketball Game: r/NBAstreams
  • Football Game: r/NFLstreams
  • Hockey Game: r/puckstreams
  • College Basketball Game: r/NCAAbbstreams
  • College Football Game: r/CFBstreams
  • Football: r/soccerstreams

Principle of operation

In a nutshell, I’ll tell you about the very principle of watching movies through torrent trackers on your TV. On the TV in the ForkPlayer , you open one of the available torrent trackers, find the desired movie, select a live distribution with the required quality and enjoy watching the movie online, without waiting for the full download.

With a provider speed of 100 Mbit/s, 4K movies go smoothly

To watch movies this way, you must either have a TV set-top box on Android, or an Android smartphone or tablet, or a regular computer (or laptop). In this article I will talk about the computer method.

What do we need?

What is torrent tv

  1. What is torrent tv.
  2. Advantages of torrent TV on TV.
  3. How to watch torrent channels on your smart TV?

This method works simply. Using special programs called “torrent clients” and working using P2P (“peer-to-peer”) technology, you search for files of interest on the computers of other users who have this client file.

These files are then pieced together in your machine, and that's it - the movie or software is downloaded! Moreover, the more computers that have the requested file, the higher the download speed.

Torrrent technologies (the correct name is “BitTorrent”) are very popular and are actively developing. Not so long ago, their use became available for everyone’s favorite multifunctional “smart” TVs, i.e. smart tv.

Each of you can now easily “teach” your TV to broadcast channels not only in the familiar IPTV mode, but also using BitTorrent. To do this, just install a special player for torrent TV on it.

The main difference between using this technology on a computer and on a modern TV is that torrent TV for smart TV (or Ace Stream) does not provide file downloading, but high-speed streaming of TV channels online.

Accordingly, the more viewers watch a particular channel, the higher the data transmission speed and reliability of its delivery. At the same time, you yourself become a source of data transmission for other TV viewers.

Installing AceStream on PC

AceStream is a new generation media platform that allows you to play online video/audio from any torrent tracker, without the need to download torrents and wait for the content itself to load.

  1. Download the latest version of the AceStream for Windows the official website
  2. Let's install it. When installing, leave the “Run with Windows” . We select the disk for the cache that has enough free space (for some 4K movies you need more than 100GB of free space).
  3. If you have an antivirus, you need to disable the firewall , otherwise the TV will not be able to find AceStream running on the PC.
  4. Launch the Ace Stream Media Center program.
  5. Go to the network connection information and remember the IP address of the computer. The computer and TV must be on the same network.

Advantages

The Ace Stream Media app has several benefits that all users should take note of. The main advantage of this player is that it is able to play files via P2P. At the same time, the player has all the capabilities of a regular player.

The Ice Stream player not only allows you to watch videos or listen to music. It also allows users to create their own broadcast. In this case, you can choose which network the broadcast will be broadcast through.

Ace Player HD allows you to work with high quality video files. It should be noted that during broadcasting, the quality of video and audio does not deteriorate, that is, the user receives a high-quality picture and natural sound.

Another advantage of Ace Stream Media is that the program allows you to set privacy modes. This way, published files will be available to certain groups. For example, relatives or colleagues.

Users can download Ace Stream Media completely free of charge. For ease of use, the developers have Russified the application. Thus, even beginners can handle the controls.

Ace Media Player allows users to install some plugins. Thanks to extensions, the program becomes multifunctional, which means it will allow you to solve various problems.

Setting up ForkPlayer

1. Open ForkPlayer , go to the application settings.

2. Find the item “Ace Stream direct” and enter in it the IP address of the computer on which we configured AceStream . We set the port to 6878 .

3. Turn off and turn on the TV for the changes to take effect. If everything is done correctly, then when you launch ForkPlayer you should see the AceStream icon to the left of the clock and the AceStream icon on the start menu (as in the photo).

Everything you need to watch movies from torrent sites on Smart TV is done. Now the only question is choosing the tracker from which you will watch the content.

Where and how to watch films?

Personally, I know 3 options for watching movies through torrent trackers. Let's go from simple to complex.

Services from AceStream

Immediately after you specify the IP address of the computer with the AceStream program installed, the AceStream icon will appear on the main screen of ForkPlayer. There are currently 4 resources available in this section:

    Torrent TV (collection of TV channels) Rutor NoNaMe Club RuTracker

Resources that appear after installing AceStream

Each tracker has a search by name. We look for the desired film, select the desired quality and distribution with a large number of distributors and enjoy the work done
