I've just finished testing the FireTV Stick, using Perfect Player and the NFPS m3u Playlist for accessing the IPTV service.
Quite Impressed.

A few pointers ...
- You need to install ES File Explorer and Perfect Player from the appstore.
- You need to go to settings /device /developer options /unknown sources -ON /ADB debugging -ON
Use ES File explorer to import through your network to a file sharing enabled PC, your m3u playlist. (or you can enter the external URL)

Below is a link for Perfect Player on Android STB's (a little different than the fireTV in operation, but the same to set up.)

For users that use Kodi, here is a modified keyboard.xml file to add functions to your FireTV Remote.

There is an app for ap2fire that will install apks and copy files. Just gotta be on the same LAN and input the IP of the stick in the app on your phone and boom. I just saw a guy do this the other day/ Probably old news but I thought it fits in here.
