- Login in ~60s
Purple Player is a paid app; its activation fee goes to the developer, separately from your IPTV plan. 4K support varies by model and year; if the settings menu offers a 2160p or UHD output, you're covered. Ordering happens on WhatsApp, and the login usually lands in the chat within about 60 seconds.
Have these ready
- Purple Player'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: Purple Player 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 Purple Player and install it.
- Open Purple Player on the TV and write down the MAC address and device key it shows on the start screen.
- On the Purple Player website, enter that MAC and device key, add your playlist (M3U link or Xtream details), then restart the app on the TV.
- Give the first sync a couple of minutes, then hide the groups you never use and favorite the rest.
Settings that help on the LG Smart TV
- Use the TV's Ethernet port when the router is close.
- 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.
What you'll see on first launch
After you add the playlist online and restart Purple Player, 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.
Troubleshooting
- Playlist missing after you added it online: confirm the MAC on the website matches the one on screen, then restart Purple Player.
- Picture but no sound: set the LG Smart TV's audio output to stereo or PCM; some soundbars refuse surround passthrough from IPTV feeds.
- Purple Player closes on its own: clear its cache, restart the LG Smart TV, and reinstall if it keeps happening.
- Guide off by an hour or more: check the LG Smart TV's time zone first, then the EPG offset in Purple Player.
