Install NewTV Player on Fire TV
For Amazon Fire TV, and boxes that have no Google Play. NewTV Player is not in the Fire TV app store: you install it with the free Downloader app and a code. NewTV Player is a media player only. It has no channels, films or playlists: you add your own.
Get Downloader
On Fire TV, search for Downloader in the app store on your device and install it. It is free. On another box, use Downloader if the box has it.
Let Downloader install apps
On Fire TV open Settings, then My Fire TV, then Developer options, then Install unknown apps, and turn it on for Downloader. If your Fire TV asks this by itself during the next step, allow it there.
Enter the code
Open Downloader, type the code above into its box and press Go. When the download is done, choose Install, then Open.

Add your playlist
On this website go to Manage device, sign in with the App ID and key, and add the playlist your provider gave you: an M3U link or an Xtream (XC) login. The app loads it the next time you open its home screen. It is easiest on a phone: point its camera at the QR code on the app's home screen.

If something goes wrong
- Downloader does not find anything for the code: check each digit and press Go again.

- After installing, Downloader offers to delete the file it downloaded: you can delete it. The app stays installed.
Does your box have Google Play? Then use Google Play: Install on Android.
