How to use DaddyTV IPTV Player
Learn how to add an M3U or Xtream Codes playlist, configure XMLTV EPG, and watch live channels, movies, and shows in DaddyTV.
2. Add EPG separately if you want TV guide
XMLTV is configured independently from the playlist. That keeps guide setup optional and flexible.
3. Browse content by type
Channels, movies, and shows live in separate sections, so it is easier to reach the right content quickly.
4. Watch and return to favorites
Player, favorites, search, and EPG work together so everyday viewing feels fast and predictable.
Supported sources
Playlist and TV guide are intentionally separated
DaddyTV lets you add the IPTV playlist and EPG as two independent sources. That matters because many users get channel streams from one place and TV guide data from another.

EPG without the chaos
TV guide only helps when it stays fast and optional. That is why XMLTV in DaddyTV works as a separate source, not a forced part of every setup.
Live TV and VOD in one flow
After setup you do not need to switch apps. Channels, movies, and shows stay organized, but still work within one consistent playback flow.
