- Optional but Handy: An M3U playlist link or file from your provider.
Got it all? Perfect! You’re ready for the first step.
π§ Step 1: Preparing Your Device for Installation

β Done! Now your device can install the ProgTV app.

Time to get the app! Since ProgTV isn’t on the Google Play Store, we download it directly. It’s easy.
- Open the web browser on your device (like Chrome or Silk Browser).
- Search for “ProgTV APK latest version”. Look for a trusted website like APKPure or the official ProgTV site.

- Tap on Playlist or Connection.
- Here, you enter your details from your provider:
- Server URL: Enter the web address they gave you.
- Username & Password: Type these in carefully.
- Tap Save or OK. The app will now try to connect.
π‘ Tip: If your provider gave you an M3U link, you can use that in the next step instead.
πΊ Step 4: Loading Your Playlist
If you saved your server settings, your channels might load automatically! If not, or if you have an M3U file, here’s how to load it.
- Go back to the main Settings > Playlist.
- Look for an option like “Add URL” or “Load Playlist”.
- Paste your M3U link here, or select a file if you downloaded it.
- Tap OK. The app will download the playlist. This might take a minute.

π¨ Troubleshooting Common Setup Errors
Sometimes things don’t go perfectly. No stress! Here are quick fixes for common problems.
- “No Channels” or “Playlist Error”: Double-check your server URL, username, and password. One typo can break it. Also, ensure your subscription is active.
- Buffering or Freezing: This is often an internet issue. Try restarting your router. In ProgTV settings, you can also increase the buffer size under “Decoder” options.
- App Crashes on Open: The APK file might be corrupt. Uninstall it and download a fresh copy from a different website.
- Audio but No Video (or vice versa): Go to Settings > Decoder and try switching between “Hardware” and “Software” decoder modes.
β‘ Optimizing for Best Performance
Want the smoothest experience? A few small tweaks make a big difference.
- Use a Wired Connection: If possible, connect your TV box directly to the router with an Ethernet cable. It’s more stable than Wi-Fi.
- Close Background Apps: Too many apps running can slow down your device. Clear them from your recent apps list.
- Update Regularly: Check for new versions of ProgTV every few months. Updates often fix bugs and improve speed.
