Setup guide
Setting up Bob Premium on the LG Smart TV
Bob Premium runs on LG webOS, which makes it a natural fit for the LG Smart TV. Setup is install, sign in, wait for the list: about five minutes from start to your first channel with an Ultra 8K IPTV login.
- No contract
- 7-day refund
- Login in ~60s
Bob Premium is a paid app; its activation fee goes to the developer, separately from your IPTV plan. Whether it plays 4K depends on the model, so check the spec sheet before choosing 4K feeds. Plans are prepaid and never auto-renew, and you have 7 days to ask for your money back.
Have these ready
- Bob Premium's MAC address and device key, which it shows on its start screen
- LG TV software updated, so the Content Store shows current apps
- Budget 10 Mbps per HD screen and 25 Mbps per 4K screen, then add headroom for everyone else online
- A faster way to type: the Magic Remote pointer, or a USB keyboard
Step by step: Bob Premium on the LG Smart TV
- Order on WhatsApp from the buy page. Your login details come back in the same chat, usually within a minute.
- Open the LG Content Store (labeled Apps on recent webOS versions), search for Bob Premium and install it.
- Open Bob Premium on the TV and write down the MAC address and device key it shows on the start screen.
- On the Bob Premium website, enter that MAC and device key, add your playlist (M3U link or Xtream details), then restart the app on the TV.
- Wait for the first load to finish, open a channel to test it, and star the ones you watch most.
What you'll see on first launch
After you add the playlist online and restart Bob Premium, the TV shows your playlist name and starts loading channels. The first load on TV hardware can take a couple of minutes; after that, live TV, movies and series open from the home screen.
Tune it for the LG Smart TV
- Switch the picture mode to Standard or Sports for live games; Vivid looks harsh on compressed feeds.
- Install TV software updates; the app store serves builds matched to your firmware.
- Turn off motion smoothing if faces look plastic; leave it on for sports if you like the effect.
- Playlist name: give it a clear name on the website so you can tell playlists apart.
If Bob Premium won't cooperate
- Playlist missing after you added it online: confirm the MAC on the website matches the one on screen, then restart Bob Premium.
- Picture but no sound: set the LG Smart TV's audio output to stereo or PCM; some soundbars refuse surround passthrough from IPTV feeds.
- Guide off by an hour or more: check the LG Smart TV's time zone first, then the EPG offset in Bob Premium.
- Channels but no guide: refresh the EPG in Bob Premium's settings, or give it a few minutes after the first sign-in.
