Install a player
IBO Player Pro
PaidFree for a week, then a one-time payment. A year comes with the 12-month plan.
IPTV Smarters
FreeFree, and in both stores.
Note. Only a couple of IPTV players make it into the Samsung and LG stores. The TV maker sets that limit, and it is the one drawback of skipping a stick.
Sign in and check the resolution
Open the player, pick the Xtream Codes option and type in the username, password and server address. Take your time with the remote. Then open a 4K channel: the TV's info button should show 2160p.
The short app list is the trade-off. Roku has the same limit, while a Firestick 4K in the HDMI port opens up every player, TiviMate included. Look at the channel list before you decide.
