Ok so I loaded the m3u playlist in and it plays video but it freezes up on live tv. However on Tubi, Pluto, syncler stremio, and all other apps play without freezing up just IPTV ---

I was not aware but it looks like the ability to become a Patron has been closed. I don’t know the reason for this ---

If I may, I’d also like to add to your knowledge and do some research on m3u8 . m3u8 have an integrated EPG and can save time by not having to add in an extra url for the EPG. When I first began I only did “free” iptv and found it simpler that way. Lots to learn and a world of fun to be had. ---

I’ve seen something about that but haven’t gotten to trying it yet. Not sure if the x5 buzztv does those are not? Send me a link to the info if you can. UPDATE: so I have live tv workingVERY WELL. 2 things happened 1. I changed to yet another provider, this provider is now running almost flawlessly. It started freezing every now and the. But I started adjusting the cache delay setting for the live tv. I have it on about a 5 sec delay or cache and no probs freezing at all, now.so if you do have a lot of freezing on buzz tv try adding a few seconds delay…. And/or try a different service they are not all the same. Thank you all that helped ---

Nope! The m3u url is a long winded link to you provider whereas the Extreme Codes login is more of a shortcut to the same data. Nothing changes as both get you to the same source data. ---
