How to sign in with an Xtream Codes login

What your provider sends

The server URL is an address with a port, the number after the colon. Some providers send it without http:// in front; that is fine.

Only have an M3U link?

Most M3U links from an Xtream Codes panel carry the whole login inside them:

http://example.com:8080/get.php?username=your_name&password=a1b2c3d4&type=m3u_plus

• The server URL is everything before /get.php: http://example.com:8080.
• The username follows username=: your_name.
• The password follows password=, up to the next &: a1b2c3d4.

Signing in with those three usually gives you more than the playlist does: films and series with their details, and the guide without a separate link.

Sign in

1. 1

   Open Aina

   It opens on Add your subscription the first time. Otherwise, go to Settings, then Subscriptions, then Add a subscription.

2. 2

   Choose Xtream Codes

   The first tab.

3. 3

   Enter the server URL

   With its port. You can leave out http://, and anything after the port is ignored, so a longer address copied from your provider still works.

4. 4

   Enter your username and password

   Exactly as sent. Both are case-sensitive.

5. 5

   Name it and connect

   Give it a name if you like, and tap Connect. Live TV, films, series and the guide load in.

When it will not connect

• “Could not reach the server.” Check the port, and whether your provider’s address starts with http:// or https://: type the one they gave. If the provider has several addresses, try another.
• “Wrong username or password.” Look for a space copied at the start or the end, and for letters in the wrong case. Copy and paste rather than retyping where you can.
• “This subscription has expired.” or “This subscription is not active.” Your provider can renew or activate it. Once you are signed in, Aina shows a line’s expiry date with the subscription.
• “That address answered, but not like an Xtream portal.” The address is a website rather than the panel, or the panel is behind a different port. Check it with your provider.
• A channel will not play after signing in. Many lines allow one or two streams at a time: stop playing on another device and try again.
