IPTV setup for Dreamlink Android discussion thread

Ha, isn't it funny how that happens. Bet it was the last place you looked too. Let me know if that works because it still says 8 minutes downloading with my crappy internet. Am streaming a movie though....



Can tell you one thing, I would like the app on my phone if it'd let me swipe the screen- will have to play with that now :)


EDIT::
File was good, just got it on the phone and installed.

okay, thnx...
yea, I am having issues with stuff. The dreamlink is not seeing the .apk file at all now, on the usb stick. Saw it on the HDD, but not stick.

Will reformat the stick and re-try.
 
nope.
The USB stick is fine. I can see the apk file when I look at the USB device thru file browser, but now no apk is found when I go thru Appsinstaller

I prolly somehow corrupted the file when I downloaded it... Don't know, but I have 3 extraction programs on PC here, will try another.
But this will all happen tomorrow.
Gotta get some shut eye soon :)

thnx BIO
 
I believe if you see it with file browser you can install it from there? But it may also be corrupt since app ins. doesn't see it. IDK, but goodnight and get some rest. Tomorrow's another day.

On an unrelated note, I kinda like the app on my phone. Wouldn't want to watch the small screen for hours but it'll be nice when I'm desperate :)

tried last night to open the apk thru the file browser (where I saw it), but that came up with the same parsing message.
I been hard at work last few days and no work tomorrow, so that's when I'll get back at it. Or maybe later tonight, depends how many cold ones I get into :)
I'll get it done :)


Thnx for that tip Bkman .. I will look into that too :)
 
USING stb emulator

In portal settings you put the server name.
Exit back out one
Using stb emulator and when I get to the portal settings screen I enter http://1.iptvxxxxxxxx.tv/ under portal URL, do I leave everything else as it is?
when I go change to my profile it tells me my STB is damaged. I click on the settings menu at the top and change it to test portal and it works ok althogh no channels or
vod just some russian channels and you tube, but they work. What am I doing wrong? I believe I followed the steps to a T
 
I was working with my dreamlink doing the steps, and only the steps I posted.
Have you changed your serial number and mac addy?
Think the serial number needs to stay 13 digits long.
Mac has to stay the same number of digits with : between.
Try using only mac letters a b c d e and numbers 0 1 2 3 4 5
like 1E: 2B: 3C: 00: AA: 11: etc.



lmao... arse
Yep :)

did you change the last 6 of mac in the emulator? and the serial number?
 
Have done that

I have a mag 250 and used the last numbers of its mac address and separated with a : no spaces. So basically is the same number as in my mag250(cloned) I entered a different serial number with 13 digits. also changed the profile name to one of my own, I called it IPTV. the test portal works good. The IPTV portal says my box is damaged.I have tried it on two different occasions with the same results

I don't know, have never had that error on any of the installs I did. Maybe try uninstalling the app and try from scratch to see if that works.
 
Thanks darkside.

I just set my mac back to 0's and that is the message
''Your STB is damaged.
Call the provider.""

Never thought to NOT change my mac addy- just seems wrong lol'ol
 
Voula is working

I got it to work, I had done all that was said before, including changing mac last six. What I think I did wrong was to add a new test portal instead of modding the info on the portal that was already there. Also one more step as i was getting the same message was to go to stb model and click on the blue button that showed the mag 250 ththat I had enabled prior a couple lines up. I am working now however I have the loading bar, but will try to use external player
Thanks for your help everyone. You guys rock
