ksmkg Posted March 14, 2021 Posted March 14, 2021 I was wondering if there is a difference between Server Line, Streaming Line and M3U regarding functionality. If I have an IPTV provider that offers all 3, is there a preferred method of connecting and if so, why? Thanks. Quote
dishuser Posted March 15, 2021 Posted March 15, 2021 with streaming or m3u you usually get more than one connection with mac you only get one Quote

Expand I have a server line which is tied to a MAC address. I can watch it on 2 devices because my other device is a BuzzTV XPL3000. On that device you have the ability to change the MAC Address. Unfortunately from xpl4000 on they removed that feature - understandably so due to conflicts that may arise. Quote

whacked Posted March 17, 2021 Posted March 17, 2021 (edited) one important factor which people do not think about is that when using the m3u line there is also a place to add a third party source for the EPG. If you have multiple EPG URLs, you could even create a few m3u connections with a different EPG URL attached to each one. Then when your server is lagging with their EPG data, you can simply switch from MAC Server to one of the m3u server lines with that third party EPG URL I have 3 separate EPG sources and all 3 are for the same service and this may go without saying, but I will say it anyway... I never have trouble with an empty EPG Edited March 17, 2021 by whacked 1 Quote
