IPTV Connections

See how to use different connections on Formuler boxes and IPTV url`s you get
from your provider.
First of all, one small Info for potential new buyers and owners of Formuler
Boxes.
Formuler is only Manufacturer of Formuler Boxes and has nothing to do
with subscriptions or any online streams.
Formuler Boxes are sold without any 3th content or subscriptions.
To get, install and use IPTV subscriptions is only user responsibility. No
recommendation from us which provider is good or not, link to them or
posting names on forum (read forum rules).
Thank you for your understanding.
Formuler Z and Mytvonline App, works with following URL`s and Subscriptions:
Portal/Stalker (with registered MAC/ID on provider side).
Xtreme Codes Api (short XC) with login.
M3U Playlists.
Stalker Middleware MAC ID:
Stalker servers deliver content from your IPTV/OTT/VOD providers who use
Stalker Middleware. If your provider speak about MAG Connection and MAC
registering, he means Stalker.
This kind of connection is in most cases in use and deliver very good results. So,
when we write on forum MAC/ID registering or portal, we mean stalker connection.
Xtreme Codes Api:
Xtreme Codes deliver content from your IPTV/OTT/VOD providers who use
Xtreme Codes. Works good like Stalker, the MAC/ID registering is not necessary
but you have to use your login data.
M3U:
The common use of this file format is for combining streaming links in one single
file that runs as one single playlist. That is why it is commonly used by IPTV
services/providers.
See the guide on portal connection for more information
