GSE has been around longer than most IPTV players, and it shows in the number of settings.
How do you add a playlist?
- Open GSE and tap the menu.
- For an M3U link: Remote playlists → + → Add M3U URL, give it a name and paste the link.
- For a log-in: Xtream Codes API → +, then enter the server, username and password.
- Tap the new playlist to load channels.
How do you send it to the TV?
From an iPhone, use the AirPlay button to an Apple TV or AirPlay-capable TV. GSE also supports Chromecast, which helps with Google TV devices and Chromecast dongles.
Which settings help?
- Player options: switch the decoder if a channel shows a black screen with sound.
- Parental control: hide adult groups behind a PIN.
- Time shift: set the guide’s time zone to UK time if listings look an hour out after the clocks change.
