Short summary: TiviMate organizes television; it does not supply the subscription behind it. I reviewed two IPTV services that name TiviMate in their own guidance, comparing account setup, program guides, viewing limits, and prepaid plans. USA LIVE IPTV supplies a step-by-step Xtream Codes tutorial, while OSIRISIPTV lists TiviMate among its supported players and offers an M3U account format.
An attractive channel guide is little help when the subscription cannot load correctly into the player. The more important details sit behind that interface: the credentials supplied with the account, the schedule data attached to each channel, and the number of streams the subscription permits. Those details also explain why buying TiviMate Premium alone will not start a television service.
For this comparison, I used the services' official setup instructions and plan descriptions rather than treating a generic Android logo as proof of compatibility. Neither subscription has been tested hands-on for this guide, and their channel distribution rights have not been independently established. Use only content you are authorized to receive.

How I selected these IPTV services for TiviMate
I gave more weight to an explicit account format and named player support than to catalog size. A service needs to explain how its subscription reaches TiviMate before its other features become relevant.
- Player-specific evidence: USA LIVE IPTV publishes a dedicated TiviMate tutorial. OSIRISIPTV names the app in its player recommendations and lists M3U among its delivery formats, providing a documented route rather than a blanket compatibility assumption.
- Account restrictions: The reviewed standard plans permit one active stream. That matters because installing the player on several televisions does not create extra simultaneous connections or remove the supplier's account limits.
- Guide and content information: Both services advertise an electronic program guide and on-demand material. These features describe the supplied service, not independently verified completeness, stream quality, or coverage of every station.
- Subscription flexibility: I compared the available prepaid periods and refund terms, keeping the television account separate from the player's Premium purchase. A longer subscription reduces renewal frequency but commits more money upfront.
- Content access: A compatible playlist format does not establish distribution rights. I kept technical compatibility separate from licensing, because the player can organize a stream without certifying that its supplier is authorized to distribute it.
1. USA LIVE IPTV
The setup instructions are the distinguishing detail here. USA LIVE IPTV walks through adding a playlist in TiviMate and choosing Xtream Codes login, then identifies the server address, username, and password sent with the subscription. Its tutorial also explains the Include VOD option, so the account setup covers more than loading a live-channel list.
The standard retail account allows one connection. Extra connections are offered separately, which is important for anyone planning to watch on a second television or use multiple streams at once. The supplier's dedicated tutorial is evidence of intended compatibility, not proof that every channel or advanced player function works without interruption.
Key features
- Credential-based playlist setup: The official TiviMate guide specifies Xtream Codes login and the three account fields needed to populate the playlist. This reduces ambiguity about whether the customer receives a usable player login rather than access restricted to a proprietary app.
- Integrated schedule information: The service advertises an EPG for browsing programs and planning viewing. In TiviMate, schedule data is what gives the channel grid program names and timings; a channel whose guide data is missing will still need separate attention.
- On-demand account loading: The tutorial instructs subscribers to select Include VOD when adding the account. That makes the supplied movies and series part of the setup, although access to the player's relevant Premium functions remains a separate purchase.
- Catch-up availability: USA LIVE IPTV advertises catch-up alongside live television. Replay depends on the material retained by the service, so the feature should not be mistaken for TiviMate recording a permanent local copy of every broadcast.
- Closed-captioning support: Closed captioning appears among the supplier's service features. Caption availability still depends on the individual stream and player controls, but the advertised support is relevant for watching dialogue without relying entirely on audio.
Pros
- The dedicated tutorial identifies the account fields and VOD setting, making the initial setup less dependent on interpreting instructions written for a different IPTV app.
- Prepaid, non-recurring billing gives the subscriber an upfront package total instead of an automatically renewing monthly charge, which simplifies budgeting for a fixed subscription period.
- The one-connection standard plan and separate extra-connection option distinguish basic access from simultaneous viewing, reducing the risk of confusing player installations with television account allowances.
Cons
- Three months is the shortest retail period displayed in the reviewed plans, so there is no listed one-month package for someone who wants the smallest paid commitment.
- One active connection limits concurrent playback. TiviMate's multiview interface does not expand that allowance, and additional live streams require an account that permits them.
- Advertised catch-up and captioning do not establish a complete channel-by-channel coverage guarantee. Neither function should be assumed to exist on every station simply because it appears in the service description.
Pricing
These are prepaid package totals in US dollars for one connection. The annual and two-year offers include the extra subscription periods shown below; TiviMate Premium is not part of these prices.
| Plan | Upfront price | Advertised extra period |
|---|---|---|
| Three months | $49.96 | None listed |
| One year | $95.98 | One month |
| Two years | $139.98 | Three months |
The official refund policy provides a 30-day satisfaction guarantee and instructs customers with activation problems to contact support within 48 hours of purchase. Refund requests require order details and a description of the issue, with processing to the original payment method typically stated as two to five business days.
2. OSIRISIPTV
OSIRISIPTV offers a shorter starting term and more subscription periods to choose from. Its app FAQ includes TiviMate, while the standard plan descriptions list M3U, MAG, and Enigma delivery formats. For TiviMate, M3U is the relevant documented format; the other formats are not interchangeable instructions for setting up this player.
The site's standard-account FAQ allows installation on multiple devices but only one device playing at a time. That distinction makes this a single-stream subscription even if the same playlist has been added to several screens. The M3U listing and named app support establish intended compatibility, but the reviewed pages do not provide a TiviMate-specific guide as detailed as the first service's tutorial.
Key features
- M3U playlist delivery: Standard plans list the M3U format, which TiviMate supports according to its developer's app listing. This provides a documented playlist route without requiring the subscriber to use OSIRISIPTV's other supported device formats.
- Electronic program guide: The homepage advertises EPG access alongside live television. Schedule information helps turn a long playlist into a browsable program grid, although the reviewed specifications do not promise complete guide data for every channel.
- TV and VOD updates: Subscription descriptions include free updates to television and on-demand content. This describes ongoing catalog maintenance rather than a static playlist purchase, without establishing a particular update interval.
- Movies and series access: The plans include on-demand movies and television shows in addition to live channels. The benefit is access to both viewing types through the subscription, subject to the formats delivered and the player's applicable Premium functionality.
- Round-the-clock online assistance: The subscription page lists 24/7 online support. That offers a stated contact route for account and playlist problems outside a narrow business-day window, though no response time or resolution rate was tested for this guide.
Pros
- A listed one-month plan provides a smaller paid commitment than the three-month minimum in the first service's retail packages, which matters when evaluating a new account.
- The range of five subscription periods lets the customer choose between frequent renewals and a longer prepaid term without having to select a multiyear plan immediately.
- Naming TiviMate in the app FAQ and listing M3U delivery gives prospective subscribers concrete compatibility information, rather than leaving them to infer support from device branding alone.
Cons
- Installing the standard account on multiple devices does not permit simultaneous watching. A second television playing at the same time would exceed the stated one-stream allowance.
- The reviewed specifications do not describe an EPG update interval or guarantee schedule coverage for every station, which leaves an important part of the guide experience unspecified.
- The 24/7 support claim does not include a measured response-time commitment. Availability of a contact channel is not evidence that a playback problem will be resolved immediately.
Pricing
The standard-account prices are package totals in euros, with one active device at a time. They do not include TiviMate Premium, and a US payment method may incur its own currency-conversion charges.
| Plan | Upfront price |
|---|---|
| One month | €9.99 |
| Three months | €24.99 |
| Six months | €44.99 |
| 12 months | €69.99 |
| 24 months | €99.99 |
OSIRISIPTV offers a free trial request through its site, but the reviewed subscription descriptions do not specify a trial duration. The standard plans advertise a seven-day money-back guarantee.
What a TiviMate-compatible subscription needs
The official TiviMate app listing supports M3U playlists, Xtream Codes, and Stalker Portal. These are account-delivery methods, not interchangeable names for the same login screen. The supplier's instructions should identify which method applies to the purchased account.
- Complete login details: An Xtream Codes account needs the server address, username, and password. An M3U account needs the supplied playlist URL; a web address for the supplier's homepage is not a substitute for that playlist.
- Matching guide data: Channel names and program schedules are separate information. Importing a playlist does not guarantee that every station has an EPG entry, so guide coverage deserves attention alongside successful playback.
- Permitted simultaneous streams: Each additional live picture needs access within the subscription's limits. A Premium player license unlocks app functions but cannot authorize extra connections on the content account.
- An appropriate television platform: TiviMate is intended for Android TV devices and remote-control use, not an optimized phone or tablet interface. Device branding alone does not establish that its operating system supports the current official app build.
TiviMate Premium, catch-up, and recording
TiviMate's developer explicitly states that the app provides no channels or media and does not endorse content suppliers. Premium unlocks player functions; it is not a television subscription. Keep those two purchases separate when evaluating the total cost of the setup.
The official TiviMate website lists multiview, catch-up, and recording among its features. They solve different problems. Catch-up retrieves broadcasts retained by the content service, while recording uses the player's recording function. Neither capability establishes permission to copy or redistribute a program, and neither makes unavailable source content accessible.
For a single-connection subscription, avoid treating multiview as an included allowance for several channels at once. The player's interface and the supplier's stream limit are independent. The same distinction applies when one television is watching live while another activity needs an additional source stream.
How to troubleshoot an incomplete playlist or guide
A blank guide and a failed login are not the same fault. Separating account setup, schedule information, and playback makes troubleshooting more precise without changing access controls or exposing credentials publicly.
- Login format: Use the delivery method specified for the account, including the complete server or playlist address. Entering a correct username in the wrong account-type screen will not establish compatibility.
- Guide coverage: If channels load but schedules do not, focus on the EPG supplied for that playlist. Repeatedly reinstalling the player does not create guide information the service has not delivered.
- Connection allowance: Close other active streams before diagnosing a one-connection account. A subscription limit can explain why playback fails on one screen when it is already running elsewhere.
- Support details: A report containing the app version, device model, affected channel, and error wording gives support more to work with than a general complaint that television is broken. Keep passwords and private playlist URLs out of public screenshots or forum posts.
Verdict
USA LIVE IPTV stands out in this comparison for its dedicated Xtream Codes tutorial and explicit TiviMate account fields. OSIRISIPTV offers a documented M3U route and a one-month starting term. The choice rests on account delivery, viewing limits, and the required content—not on buying Premium and expecting it to supply channels.
Frequently asked questions
1. Does TiviMate include an IPTV subscription?
No. TiviMate is a media player, and its developer states that it supplies no channels, streams, or other media. TiviMate Premium unlocks app features rather than a television catalog, so a separate authorized content source is required.
2. Which IPTV account formats does TiviMate support?
The official app listing names M3U playlists, Xtream Codes, and Stalker Portal. Use the format provided with the subscription, since a playlist URL and an Xtream Codes server address, username, and password belong to different setup methods.
3. Which reviewed services name TiviMate in their instructions?
USA LIVE IPTV publishes a dedicated TiviMate setup tutorial using Xtream Codes login. OSIRISIPTV includes TiviMate in its recommended-app FAQ and lists M3U among its standard subscription formats. These are documented compatibility claims, not hands-on playback results.
4. Can TiviMate Premium increase my IPTV connection limit?
No. Premium changes the player's available functions, not the content subscription's permitted simultaneous streams. Both standard accounts reviewed here allow one active stream, so extra live pictures require an account with an appropriate connection allowance.
5. Will every channel have catch-up in TiviMate?
Catch-up depends on replay content supplied by the IPTV service. The presence of a catch-up function in TiviMate does not establish that every channel retains earlier broadcasts or that all programs have the same replay period.
6. Is TiviMate designed for phones and tablets?
The official app listing says TiviMate is designed for Android TV devices and is not optimized for phones and tablets. Verify the exact device platform and current official app support rather than relying on a generic smart-TV or streaming-stick label.
