Setup guide
Family Player 4K on your Chromebook, step by step
Family Player 4K runs on Android, which makes it a natural fit for the Chromebook. 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
Family Player 4K is a paid app; its activation fee goes to the developer, separately from your IPTV plan. On a phone or laptop screen, HD feeds already look sharp; 4K only pays off on a 4K display. Prepaid means no renewal surprises, and the 7-day money-back guarantee means the first week carries no risk.
Have these ready
- Family Player 4K's MAC address and device key, which it shows on its start screen
- Enough free space for the app and its guide data
- Plan on about 10 Mbps for each HD stream and 25 Mbps for each 4K stream
Step by step: Family Player 4K on the Chromebook
- Order on WhatsApp from the buy page. Your login details come back in the same chat, usually within a minute.
- Open the Play Store on the Chromebook and install Family Player 4K; it runs as an Android app in its own window.
- Open Family Player 4K on the TV and write down the MAC address and device key it shows on the start screen.
- On the Family Player 4K 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 Family Player 4K, 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 Chromebook
- Connect to a TV over HDMI for a bigger picture with the same app.
- Use Ethernet for 4K on a desktop or docked laptop.
- Turn on hardware acceleration in the player settings.
- Playlist name: give it a clear name on the website so you can tell playlists apart.
If Family Player 4K won't cooperate
- Playlist missing after you added it online: confirm the MAC on the website matches the one on screen, then restart Family Player 4K.
- Family Player 4K closes on its own: clear its cache, restart the Chromebook, and reinstall if it keeps happening.
- Guide off by an hour or more: check the Chromebook's time zone first, then the EPG offset in Family Player 4K.
- Picture but no sound: set the Chromebook's audio output to stereo or PCM; some soundbars refuse surround passthrough from IPTV feeds.
