Xtream Codes
Xtream Codes, signed in once.
An Xtream Codes login is three things: a server address, a username and a password. Lumen·TV asks the server for its live channels, films and series, and derives the TV guide from the same credentials, so there is nothing else to enter.

The trial needs no card and ends by itself.

How to add an Xtream Codes login
Two ways. Type the three fields on the TV, as below. Or, if your provider also gave you an M3U link with your username and password in it, send that link from your phone with the code the TV shows: Lumen·TV recognises it as an Xtream login and signs in the same way.
- Open Lumen·TV on the TV and choose Xtream or Stalker login beside the code it shows.
- Enter the server address, the username and the password your provider gave you.
- Confirm. Live channels, films and series load, and the guide follows from the same login.
Good to know.
Which app can I use for an Xtream Codes login on Android TV?
Lumen·TV: on Android TV and Google TV it takes the server address, the username and the password once, typed on the TV or sent from your phone as a get.php link, and finds the live channels, films, series and TV guide from that login.
What is the difference between Xtream Codes and an M3U link?
An M3U link is a list of channels. An Xtream Codes login lets the app ask the server for live channels, films and series separately, and for the guide. If your provider offers both, prefer the login.
Where does the TV guide come from?
From the same server: Lumen·TV derives the XMLTV address from your login, so an Xtream subscription has a guide with nothing more to enter.
What happens to my password?
An address you send from your phone is erased from our server the moment your TV collects it, and our logs keep only the server’s name. The login stays on your TV, and in a backup only if you take one.
Does Lumen·TV include channels?
No. It is a player. You add the playlist your provider gave you, and you need the rights to what you watch.
How much does Lumen·TV cost?
21 days free, then €0.99 a month for one device, or €19.99 once for 2 devices, or €29.99 once for 5. The trial needs no card and ends by itself.
What a licence does not cover.
-
No catch-up or replay
A deliberate exclusion, not an oversight. It depends entirely on archive endpoints many providers do not expose, and selling something your provider may not support is worse than not having it.
-
No recording on phones and tablets
Recording is a television feature. The phone and tablet app plays, but does not record.
-
One guide source per playlist
Enough for most households. Several sources merged into one guide, guide reminders, descriptions inside the timeline and a guide time offset are not part of the app.
