It actually downloads the epg you need something like file explorer to see it. It will be in a folder called IM player it will contain the apk and epg data so delete the apk that is fine and the you will see epg in xml format.

Smarters for pc is very generic I find and very slow but latter is Mode because of my crap PC lol.

Haha! Thing is PC is really lacking a half decent player. I find Smarters does a okish job on that front lol

True mate
Not all but those providers who do provide a Web player for computers it works really sweet and no real need for smarters then.
Install LD player and you can use any android app

yeah mate I use that and Bluestacks. Nox is also
good. Or Hyper-V if you want to go down the Virtual Machine route.

If you do decide to try out TiviMate its worth its weight in gold to upgrade to premium for a few quid with TiviMate Companion. I think its just over a fiver for 5 devices for the year or a bobby for lifetime premium.👍

Bluestacks has been an absolute god send. I've used it on a few projects some white hat some for not so white hat and everytime it's as solid as a rock when needed. Only Nox I used was a Kodi skin 😂 bl00dy good skin it was too Aero Nox Silver that skin was soooo customizable it was actually really cool to work with on an old Krypton build on Kodi. I first started using Hyper-V in a professional capacity about 10 years ago and imo its as good as ESXi VMware but not better as I think VMW has a slight edge over Hyper-V in more ways than one. I believe one major difference is your only ever really going to see ESXi in a professional capacity when compared against Hyper-V as your see your see more hobby projects utilizing Hyper-V over VMW.

Just use Kodi on the pc for playing IPTV, never had a problem with it.
Not the IPTV simple client, if you search online there is a dedicated addon for IPTV on Kodi 19+ only

I think tivimate is second to none
There are apps just as good it is just finding suppliers that have them.

NUETRO
Both of them there's nothing in it. Nuetro like XCIPTV has VLC built in.

Tivimate I use on the main TV and STB Emu Pro on my bedroom one. Tivimate is hands down the best interface.
But it seems more and more IPTV suppliers are trying to push you onto their own app rather than providing the credentials to use a Tivimate which is annoying.

Because in fairness they will have one which is pretty much identical.

I see '719' mentioned a few times with Xciptv.
I am considering installing Xciptv 719 on a firestick.
Would you folks recommend this?
Also, what does 719 mean? Is it simply the latest version? The Google Play Store lists version 5.0.1 as the latest version. I am a bit unsure what the 719 means.
Any folks know how to install Xciptv 719 on a firestick (if it is a good idea)?

Thank you Baz.
And, in keeping with the point of the thread, I have now tried several different iptv apps on a firestick. I have not tried all of them. But I think Xciptv is the best for me. It is certainly the simplest one to use (of the ones that I have tried) I think which is my preference
