How do I set up IPTV on an Android TV box?

Android TV boxes like the Nvidia Shield, Xiaomi Mi Box, BuzzTV and Formuler are among the best IPTV devices, with TiviMate delivering the best experience. Open the Google Play Store, install TiviMate, tap Add Playlist, select Xtream Codes API, and enter your Vivimate Server URL, Username and Password — channels, EPG and VOD load automatically. IPTV Smarters Pro works the same way as an alternative. For best 4K performance, set the player to ExoPlayer in Settings. The whole setup takes about five minutes on any Android TV 7.0+ device.
