A Good Option for Rocket on Android Tvbox

I have been playing around with the m3u urls, and heres the setup i found to work best.


I decided to not use kodi anymore for my rocket. I found the guide to be very slow, and a lot of crashing and issues using kodi (could just be my android box)

Anyways, i downloaded "perfect iptv player" from the google play store on my android tv box. In the rocket checker i selected Generic m3u, i entered that into the play list settings on perfect iptv player.

I'm not sure if Rocket provides a epg using this method, so i entered the url i was using on kodi for stalker client
HTML: 
http://epg.euyulio.org

That populated most of the guide.


I find this is working way better then kodi ever did, plus the EPG and on screen menus are nice to look at too.

Any chance of including more information on the setup itself? M3U url's etc.

Yes, i will post later a more detailed list of what i did.

As for the URLS, you will need to go to the rocket site, click rocket, and enter your information. From there remove the mac address you have linked. Log back on, and you will notice a drop down box with options as for what box your using. When you select the option you want, it will display a URL, that's what you enter into the android app

For this setup i used "Generic m3u" I'm not sure about the others, but that one worked for me

I have only done this on an android box, and not a phone, i would assume it would work the same with a phone/tablet.

1. Go to the android browser. Usually labled as browser, or Chrome.

2. Go to this:

HTML: 
https://apkpure.com/perfect-player-iptv/com.niklabs.pp

3. Just click the Green download button

4. When prompted to install, accept everything. You may be prompted to enable "install from other sources".

5. Go into the Perfect IPTV app, and click the Settings icon, (a gear)

6. Click General/ Play List one/
Make sure m3u is checked off.

7. Go to the Rocket website and enter your information in the Donation checker. If your using your Rocket code with another box, and the mac address is linked, Click change Mac address, and just erace it and save.

8. Log back into the rocket checker and you will see a drop down menu, click on it and select *as per what dara said* Generic M3U With options, A link will appear below.

HTML: 
http://p1.iptvrocket.tv:80/get.php?username=*****YOUR ROCKET NYMBER*****&password=*******YOUR ROCKET NuMBER*****&type=m3u_plus&output=ts


9. Put that into the the play list one URL on Perfect IPTV.

10. Click okay.

11: If you want epg, Click EPG 1 and enter the url:
HTML: 
http://yahyabell.com

Click okay and back out of the settings menu, When your backed out of the settings menu the guide and channels will start loading. Go to the guide and just click one,


Works good for me so far.

I left the tv on today when i went out, on the NBA network HD. After 5 hours it didn't stop streaming, I found with the old setup after i couple hours on the same channel it would freeze and stop playing

same results with a generic m3u playlist on mag254

and dara, them logos on that playlist as show as all generic for each and all channel ( all the same generic logo )
Other difference is that with plus version you get channel name on screen with channel changes.

Thanks to nrules387 for getting this thread started. It might be nice to have a dedicated area on this forum to Perfect Player if it becomes a primary interface for Android users who dont want to use Kodi (like me). I had been using MagTV (stb emu) on my MyGica boxes and they were running great. Since the upgrade I lost some features so I have been testing the switch to Perfect Player. So far I like it and I think Im slowly figuring my way around all of the shortcuts. The epg seems to be ok, definitly not as good as what I was getting from the Rocket sever using the emulator. I have entered both the yahyabell and euyulio epg urls but it still only populates ~40% of the US and UK channels. The other issue (and it is a minor one) is that it would be nice to have the ability to keep the channel numbering the same as the provider rather than the first channel being 1 as opposed to 21 from the original channel lst. Again, I can make do learning new channel numbers but if Im missing a setting to do this, please let me know.
Im looking forward to learning about others experience using PP. I may tinker with VLC but without a seamless epg interface it is a nonstarter.
Thanks to all the staff and mods for all the progress.....

Good Morning Everyone,

Thanks nrules387 for recommending this app. I also switched from KODI to Perfect IPTV Player and wow it has been amazing so far. Channels look waayyyyy better than on KODI. I was amazed by the quality of channels when using this app compared to using KODI. Loading times are also fast as well and i also like how the app is laid out with the channels and EPG, it looks like my cable box setup. The only problem i am having is that the guide for most of the channels are not being populated. I was wondering, has anyone experience this with Perfect IPTV Player app? I see the user "85146" also have a similar issue. Using XXXXXXXXXXXXXX with Kodi most of the channels have a guide but with Perfect IPTV player only a few. Could it be a problem with the app? Any help will be appreciated. Thanks again everyone.

If you guys have AndroidTV box like Shield or Mi Box , try TVirl app on play store you can configure the M3u url there and the EPG . the best part is it integrates with the built in Live channels app to give beauitful UI with nice cable like experience , only draw back with this the VOD doesnt work and as of now the the epg urls dont work properly for me , i have to manually download the guide xml and push it androidTv box and select it everytime . Aso another nice bonus is you can do voice search for channel name or the program name from anywhere on the box it will show you the live channel in the search results

the developer is very responsive i have sent him soem feature requests and bug fixes hes looking into it .
