  • LG webOS 2018+ · Smart IPTV or SS IPTV · 4K Dolby Vision SuperSport
  • From R99/month. 24-hour free trial, no credit card. Activated on WhatsApp in 10 minutes.

Which LG Smart TVs support IPTV?

LG webOS 4.0 and later (2018 onwards) support IPTV via Smart IPTV (SS IPTV is the free alternative). This covers every LG OLED (B7-C4, G1-G4), QNED, NanoCell and UHD set sold in SA from 2018 forward.

  • LG OLED B / C / G / E series (2018+) — fully supported, 4K Dolby Vision.
  • LG QNED 80/85/90/99 — fully supported, 4K.
  • LG NanoCell — supported.
  • LG UHD UR / UQ / UP — supported.
  • Older LG NetCast (pre-2014) — not supported, requires Firestick.

Install IPTV on LG webOS — step-by-step

  1. Open the LG Content Store. Press Home → Apps → LG Content Store.
  2. Install Smart IPTV (or SS IPTV). Search 'Smart IPTV' — install. Smart IPTV has a 7-day free trial, then a once-off €5.49 activation. SS IPTV is the free alternative.
  3. Find your TV's MAC address. Settings → All Settings → Connection → Wired/Wireless → MAC address. Send it to us on WhatsApp.
  4. Upload your M3U playlist. Smart IPTV: visit siptv.app/mylist on your phone → enter the MAC address → upload the M3U file we send.
  5. Reload Smart IPTV on the TV. Close and re-open Smart IPTV on your LG. The channel list loads from our M3U.
  6. Test 4K SuperSport. LG OLED and QNED support Dolby Vision IPTV streams. Open SuperSport — 4K should play with HDR on a sufficiently fast fibre line.

LG-specific quirks and fixes

  • Smart IPTV is per-MAC-address — if you replace your LG, the activation has to migrate.
  • Use a wired Ethernet connection if possible — LG webOS Wi-Fi can drop briefly on app launch.
  • Disable LG's Quick Start+ if streams pause unexpectedly — it puts the network adapter to sleep.
  • OLED G / C series support Dolby Vision IPTV out of the box.
  • If 4K stutters, set HDMI to 'Ultra HD Deep Colour' in Settings → Picture.
