How to remove unnecessary channels from the playlist of an IPTV player on TV and set-top box


Editing a playlist

The easiest way to edit IPTV playlists is in a text editor. To do this, it is recommended to duplicate the existing playlist to be on the safe side, because you can accidentally ruin it. To add channels to the IPTV playlist, you need to insert two lines with parameters according to the rules specified above. Removing channels is carried out in the reverse way - two lines corresponding to the channel are deleted.

The leading role in the field of digital television today is occupied by IPTV, a technology for transmitting signals over the Internet. It is gradually replacing digital, cable and satellite television, due to the growing popularity and availability of information from the network.

Option 2: Mobile apps

The proprietary YouTube video hosting client for Android and iOS is also equipped with the function of creating, editing and deleting playlists. If you are authorized in the application and on the website through one account, data synchronization will occur automatically. This means that if you delete a playlist from your phone, it will also disappear on the PC version.

Breakdown of channels by groups and categories

In order to divide channels in an IPTV playlist into groups, you need to open the m3u.file using notepad and add the line: group-title=”Group name:” to the existing code. Group names can be written in both English and Russian. An example of an IPTV playlist divided into groups:

#EXTINF: 0, group-title=”Detskie kanaly:” Carousel https://185.70.130.89:1234/udp/239.0.0.17:1234

#EXTINF: 0, group-title=”Kanaly Novostey:” Vetta https://185.70.130.89:1234/udp/239.0.0.62:1234

#EXTINF: 0, group-title=”Kino i serialy:” TV1000 Russian cinema https://185.70.130.89:1234/udp/239.0.0.64:1234

Question to the expert

I already had Perfect player installed, but now I can’t update, why?

If the installation was from third-party software and via USB, such an application cannot be updated. You need to remove and install the new version of the player again.

The computer is running Linux, there is nothing to duplicate, what other options are there for downloading Perfect?

Install any program that supports the player as a built-in plugin. Alternatively, it could be the Google Chrome browser or Kodi player.

Perfect Player does not recognize M3U8 extension files, how to fix it?

It needs to be changed with a converter. Or open the file in Notepad, copy the contents into a new text document, and save in .m3u format with windows-1251 ANSI encoding. Add a new file through settings.

How many playlists can you add?

There are two main ones, and inside each there is one more list of favorite channels.

How to remove unnecessary channels?

First you need to go into the program that is used to play IPTV for a computer or set-top box. Open the “Channels” tab and select the “Playlists” subsection.

Select unnecessary IPTV channels with the mouse or check the boxes to the left of them in a separate box. Click on the "Delete" button. If you need to delete all channels in a playlist, click on the empty square on the left and select “Select all”, and then “Delete” again.

If you accidentally erase the wrong channel, you can quickly get back the lost information using the hotkey “Ctrl + Shift + Z”. The combination must be entered immediately, otherwise it will not work.

If you mistakenly erased the desired IPTV playlist, it is possible to recover the lost data. But for this, the Spotify program must be installed, which creates backup copies of data. Simply enter the application, log in and press the “Recover” button next to the deleted material. All data will be restored within 1-2 minutes.

Causes of malfunctions and their solutions

There are several main reasons why a playlist may not work properly.

It’s easy to determine the source of the freeze - there are only 3 of them:

  • the player and playlist you use;
  • quality and speed of Internet connection;
  • set-top box or TV with Android and Smart TV.

Bad playlist or player

If there is interference only on a few channels, and the rest are working fine, then the problem is due to a faulty playlist, and if most channels do not show, then it is a problem with the set-top box or the speed of your Internet connection.

Some files in m3u format use the UDP protocol to transmit a video stream, but this method has 2 significant disadvantages - broadcasts do not always contain all the necessary information and losses in the stream often occur.

The situation can be corrected by setting the player caching.

For example, in VLC this is done like this:

  1. Go to the Source - Network tab.
  2. Open advanced options and increase caching to 3000 ms.

Internet problems

Internet speed is the main and most common reason that causes buffering and freezing.

There are 2 main types of network connection:

  1. Wired connection, it is recommended to use at least 3 Mbps if you decide to connect directly to the modem.
  2. Connection via Wi-Fi: if you are connected via Wi-Fi, depending on the congestion of your home network, 15 Mb/s is recommended. Also, the distance from the router to the set-top box plays a big role. The Internet source may be too far away.

You can check your Internet speed in the 2ip.ru service.

If it is not possible to change the router to a more expensive model, connect the set-top box via a special Ethernet adapter. It costs much less than a new device and will allow you to connect the IPTV box directly to the modem and get maximum Internet speed.

Problem with set-top box or TV with Smart/Android TV

If all TV channels do not work well, the problem is in your device. In this case, you will have to go to a service center in case of breakdown, or change it to a new, more advanced version.

Read the forums about a specific model of TV or set-top box, perhaps you will find a method that is suitable in your case.

By creating the correct playlist without errors, with the help of special programs, you will be able to watch movies and TV shows that you like. If you don’t want to create it yourself, you can simply download from the current links what interests you most.

Connecting the T2 set-top box to the Internet

Considering the fact that IPTV requires a stable network connection on the receiver, such a stable connection channel is worth thinking about. Moreover, in this connection we pay attention to the main word – STABLE. It is important that the Internet connection speed ranges from 5 to 6 Mbit/s. First of all, this concerns those users who in the future want to watch broadcasts in HD quality.

To organize viewing of streaming video using IPTV or OTT technology, it is advisable to use a wired connection, abandoning Wi-Fi. To do this, you will need to use one of the USB connectors of the set-top box, preferably the one located on the back of the device, as well as a special USB-Ethernet adapter on the RTL8152B chip. These adapters are compatible with T2 set-top boxes.

But it is not always possible to connect “via wire”, then there is only one option left - a Wi-Fi network. When using a T2 set-top box, it is important to organize the most stable signal possible, without any failures in the system. To do this, it is recommended to use a high-quality Wi-Fi adapter that has the ability to amplify the received signal. In this case, it is advisable to use already proven adapter models. For example, the NetStick7 device is equipped with an antenna, which guarantees a gain of 5dB. In this case, under favorable conditions, you can achieve a signal level as close as possible to a cable connection in terms of operating stability.
