Support & install guides

Tavren Player installs in about a minute. Pick your platform and follow the steps.

More platforms are in development

Samsung Tizen, LG webOS and iOS versions are not publicly available yet.

Android is the current release platform. The Samsung Tizen, LG webOS, and iPhone/iPad apps are in development. There is no public Tizen, webOS or iOS installation package at this time; the download page will be updated when each version is released.

Install on Android TV / phone

The quickest way: transfer the APK and open it.

Download the APK

Download TavrenPlayer.apk on the device itself, or transfer it with a USB stick / cloud drive.

Allow installation

If prompted, allow installation from the browser or file manager ("Install unknown apps"). This is a standard Android step for apps outside the store.

Open & sign in

Open Tavren Player and choose Xtream Codes (server URL, username and password) or load an M3U playlist from a file or URL. Your library loads automatically.

Troubleshooting

Login fails

Check the server URL includes http:// and the port (e.g. :8080), that the password has no trailing spaces, and that the subscription is active. Test in a browser: <server>/player_api.php?username=X&password=Y should show "auth":1.

Buffering or freezing

Use a wired (Ethernet) connection where possible, or move the TV closer to the router. For live channels, long-press OK to switch source if your provider offers multiple qualities.

Categories look wrong

The app groups provider categories automatically. If a provider changes its naming, the grouping adapts on the next login. Logging out and back in re-syncs everything.

App disappeared after a device reset

A factory reset removes sideloaded apps and locally stored settings. Reinstall using the Android steps, then sign in again and rebuild your favorites.
