In the playlist sidebar, you will see a list of channel names. Double-click any channel to start streaming live TV. Most paid IPTV services provide a URL (e.g., http://your-iptv-provider.com:8080/get.php?username=user&password=pass&type=m3u ). This method allows VLC to fetch the latest channel list directly from the server.
Open VLC on your device.
In the dialog box, paste the full M3U URL provided by your IPTV service into the Please enter a network URL field.
