DaveStreamer New member Joined May 5, 2011 Messages 53 Mar 21, 2019 #4 The MAC address activation method is unique but straightforward.

jake_m New member Joined Mar 3, 2010 Messages 63 Mar 19, 2019 #6 Where do I find my Samsung TV's MAC address for Smart IPTV?
AnnaTV New member Joined Jun 27, 2015 Messages 43 Mar 19, 2019 #7 Settings > General > Network > Network Status > IP Settings > MAC Address.
NetNerd92 New member Joined Nov 11, 2012 Messages 53 Mar 25, 2019 #8 Got it. Thanks — I was looking in the app itself.
VPNguru New member Joined Sep 18, 2016 Messages 1,154 Mar 24, 2019 #9 The MAC is a hardware identifier, so it lives in the TV settings, not the app.
mark_wifi New member Joined Aug 8, 2013 Messages 54 Mar 26, 2019 #10 Once activated, you enter your M3U URL in the Smart IPTV website — not in the TV app.
EricNetPro New member Joined Nov 21, 2015 Messages 31 Mar 27, 2019 #11 That's an unusual setup flow. Entering the URL on the website then it syncs to the TV.
TechMike88 New member Joined Jul 27, 2010 Messages 75 Mar 26, 2019 #12 Correct. The playlist is stored server-side by Smart IPTV and synced to your TV.
LauraApps New member Joined Jul 4, 2018 Messages 39 Mar 20, 2019 #13 If the TV app shows 'no playlists' after activation, give it 10-15 minutes to sync.
TechMike88 New member Joined Jul 27, 2010 Messages 75 Mar 27, 2019 #14 I had to force-close and reopen the app after the playlist sync completed.
NetDoctor New member Joined Nov 25, 2017 Messages 593 Mar 26, 2019 #15 Note: Smart IPTV requires a one-time payment of about $5.99 to unlock unlimited playlists.
JenStream New member Joined Jan 17, 2013 Messages 60 Mar 20, 2019 #16 Worth the small cost given how stable and well-maintained the app is.
