How to Set Up Multiple Playlists in TiviMate

Why Use Multiple Playlists?

Multiple playlists in TiviMate let you manage channels from different IPTV providers, separate work and personal accounts, or keep backup provider credentials ready to switch instantly.

Adding a Second Playlist

1. Open TiviMate → Settings → Playlists
2. Tap the "+" button to add a new playlist
3. Choose M3U Playlist or Xtream Codes
4. Enter the credentials for your second provider
5. Give it a distinct name (e.g., "Provider B Backup")

Switching Between Playlists

On the main TiviMate screen, swipe right or go to Settings → Playlists and tap the playlist you want to make active. All channels update to reflect the selected playlist.

Merging Channels From Multiple Playlists

TiviMate does not automatically merge channels from multiple playlists. Channels are shown only from the currently active playlist. To use channels from both providers simultaneously, you need a merged M3U file (combine both files manually or use a playlist merge tool).

Setting Up Failover

Keep a secondary provider's playlist configured in TiviMate. When your primary provider goes down, switch to the backup playlist in under 30 seconds. This ensures you never miss a live event due to provider outages.
