šŸ„‡ Best IPTV in June 2026 - Wholesale $2/mo & Alternative

Can somebody help me Strong 8k ? It totally saved me last nite. My normal service went down n would’ve missed the greatest sports comeback of all time by my NY KNICKS !!! But was able to get Strong 8k enabled. But today can’t get it goin. Tried Amber Baby but it’s early a.m. in dat part of da world right now. Tried a bunch of different url’s but no bueno. I’m trying to set it up in Sparkle to record that 1st W/Cup & many to come. Help please :folded_hands: :cry: :sob:

I was connected last night on 2 devices, but not watching on both, only 1. Worked beautifully, but today ,not working on Sparkle.Could it be cuz I’m connected on tivimate on the same device ? Must I disconnect from tivimate to enable on Sparkle???

That’s likely the cause assuming you’re using the same credentials - If I want to swap apps, I usually reboot first

Those URLs are all old now and one or more have been blocked - Amber will give you her private URLs if you ask

Yes
Some apps will give you an error code which relates to a message stating already connected

Hey im new here so i apologize if this question has been answered before, but how long is the strong 8k option service good for until i need to renew again?

@eroc Your vendor should have provided an expiration date with your login credentials.

Yes, and typically one year…which will come upon us sooner than we think…unfortunately. I’d wager that if you get updated urls and are vigilant with that, you’ll be very happy with Strong. I’ve found that it is a bargain in this hobby.

There should be no need to update URL as private URL is now standard for yearly subs.

Re Expiry date

IPTV apps will display expiry date, good apps will start warning when the sub is due to expire, normally 5 days before expiry

Speaking of expiration dates. I really don’t think your private URLs are going to last forever. Eventually, the most likely way they’ll get leaked is by a naive user that posts it. So eventually you will have to be vigilant and ask for a new set of URLs. However, the private URLs should last a lot longer than the previous standard URLs. Unless of course your ā€œprivate URLsā€ are absolutely unique to you – which I doubt with so many prescribers to Strong. That’s actually a good question: are they literally private or shared with a smaller group?

8K has worst EPG of all IPTV Providers USA/NBC/623 channels no info USA/ABC 80% no info

Can /UK are fine asking for last 6 weeks for them to fix and nothing still the same

I have Strong 8K as my backup service. Best $7 I ever spent. My Favorites EPG is rock solid with MyEPG

I just set this up yesterday and it is 100% worth it.

If you loaded Strong into a player with an m3u code there is a separate url for the epg you need to enter in the player. If you used an xstream code to load the Playlist, the epg code is included.

I use iptveditor which costs about $15 per year. It adds most or all of the epgs and allows you to edit the stream to eliminate unwanted groups or channels, get rid of country codes, etc. It has a bit of a learning curve but worth it imho.

Hey, I am having a severe problem with my strong 8k . I keep getting a code 456 on every channel, resetting doesn’t help. Anyone know what this code means ?

Look further up this thread

I’m having issues in connection to strong 8k. With tivimate. Can I get some suggestions please. It’s also issues with my other service . Is it a tivimate issue or is problem on the other side ?

@Remy , lots of remote settings/adjustments in Sparkles Plus…

Watched Sports all day yesterday on Strong w/Tivimate zero issues and just checked all good today. Did you get the Private URL’s from Amber? A lot of the old URL’s stopped working and ever since I’ve had the Private URL’s about a month or so zero issues.

Oh and no VPN here

These are latest i got from her. I’m thinking issue might be my type of sub. 1 device 1 mo. @ present. Think I’m changing to 2 devices fur da year. Also gonna try Mike’s idea of switching servers on vpn.

Umm… You probably need to delete this post immediately. You should not be posting the URL’s on a public forum but what is more concerning you also posted your username/password. Someone can now log onto Strong 8K with your credentials.

I’m not sure if you can change your username/password for IPTV as that is given to you but if you can do it immediately. If you can’t reach out to Amber letting her know your login credentials might be compromised and see if you can get new login info
