How do I add multiple IPTV playlists in TIVERA?

Free version: a single source

• The limit counts all your sources, enabled or not: a disabled source still takes the place.
• The check happens when you tap Add source, before TIVERA contacts your provider. So you can fill in the whole form before you see the Premium screen, titled Unlock all of Tivera. It lists what Premium includes, among them “Multiple playlists (Free = 1 source)” and “Unified catalog of all your sources”.
• To switch sources without Premium, delete the old one first: disabling it does not free the place, and a disabled source has to be turned back on before it can be deleted.

Add one more source (Premium)

1. Open Settings, then Sources (the Your sources screen), then tap Add a source.
2. Under Source type, choose M3U link or Xtream Codes, then fill in the fields. The three Xtream fields are explained in add an Xtream Codes account.
3. Fill in Name (optional): give each source a different name, so you can tell them apart in the lists.
4. Tap Add source. TIVERA shows Source added and loads the catalog in the background. Continue opens the catalog of that new source alone, not the unified home screen.

Three rules to know:

• TIVERA refuses a source that is already there: “This source is already added as …”. For an M3U link, it is the same address; for an Xtream Codes account, it is the same server address, even with another username.
• An M3U link and an Xtream Codes account for the same subscription count as two sources: see M3U or Xtream Codes.
• The name is chosen when you add the source: the app does not offer to rename a source afterwards. With no name, the source is called “Source M3U” (M3U link) or “Xtream” followed by the server address in parentheses.

Enable, disable, delete a source

• Under Your sources, each source has its card, with the Use this source switch. Switched off, the card shows Disabled and “Hidden and not refreshed”: the source no longer feeds the unified catalog and is no longer refreshed, but it stays in the list.
• Tap an enabled source to open its actions: Open this source (its catalog alone), Refresh now, Clear data (erases its channels and guide: the source stays saved and needs a refresh afterwards) or Delete this source. A disabled source does not open its actions: turn it back on first with its switch.
• Delete this source asks for confirmation (“Delete this source?”). The source goes with its channels, program guide, analysis results and downloads, and it cannot be undone. Once deleted, it no longer counts toward the free version's limit.

The unified catalog: what changes

• With Premium, your profile's home screen, the one that opens when you choose a profile, brings together Live, movies and series from all the enabled sources of that profile. Search, the program guide and the category lists read the same sources.
• Under Your sources, a summary such as “2 active” or “1 disabled” appears as soon as you have more than one source.
• TIVERA only removes exact duplicates: same account, same stream. A channel that two of your sources offer can therefore appear twice.
• To limit a profile to some sources: on Who's watching?, tap Edit under the profile, then open Profile playlists, tick the sources to show and tap Save. You need at least one (“Select at least one playlist.”). Only enabled sources are listed; if you tick them all, a source added later is included automatically.

If your Premium ends

TIVERA deletes no source. The home screen only shows the first enabled source among those the profile shows; the others stay in the Your sources list, and you open them one at a time with Open this source. As long as you have one, you cannot add another. They come back into the unified catalog if you take Premium again.

Several sources and the connection limit

The limit on simultaneous connections is your provider's, not TIVERA's. Two of your sources can come from the same subscription, for example an M3U link and an Xtream Codes account: ask your provider whether the limit covers both. The card of an Xtream Codes source can show the connections of its own account, as the server reports them. If access is refused, see error 403 and connection limit.

Frequently asked questions

Can I add an M3U link and an Xtream Codes account on the free version?

No. The free version accepts a single source, M3U and Xtream Codes combined. A second source, whatever its type, opens the Premium screen instead of being saved.

If I disable my source, can I add another one on the free version?

No: a disabled source still counts. Turn it back on with its switch (a disabled source does not open its actions), delete it with Delete this source, then add the new one.

Can I add two Xtream Codes accounts from the same server?

No, even with Premium. TIVERA recognizes the same server address and shows “This source is already added as …”, even if the username is different.

Are duplicates between my sources merged?

Only when it is exactly the same stream from the same account. A channel offered by two of your sources can appear twice in the unified catalog.
