How to install IPTV UK on Nvidia Shield

The Nvidia Shield runs Android TV with Google Play built in, which makes it one of the best 4K IPTV streamers you can buy. Install a player straight from Play, or use Downloader for apps that are not listed there.

Before you start

You will need your Shield connected to a 4K TV and to the internet, ideally over Ethernet, the Google account it is signed in to, and your WildBreed login. Any Shield TV or Shield TV Pro model works.

Step by step

Step by step: get a player onto your Shield

  1. Easiest: use Google Play

    Open the Play Store on your Shield, search for a player such as IPTV Smarters Pro and install it. If the app you want is on Play, that is all you need, so skip to logging in below.

  2. For other apps, get Downloader

    In the Play Store, search for Downloader and install the free app.

  3. Allow unknown apps

    Go to Settings, then Device Preferences, then Security & restrictions. Open Unknown sources and switch Downloader on.

  4. Enter the app's code

    Open Downloader and type the Downloader code shown on the app you want below. Let it download, then choose Install.

  5. Activate a paid app

    IBO Player Pro and Hot Player lock to your device. Open the app to see its MAC address, then follow the activation steps inside its card below.

Troubleshooting IPTV on Nvidia Shield

Downloader won't install apps

Go to Settings → Device Preferences → Security & restrictions → Unknown sources and check Downloader is switched on.

4K doesn't look sharp

Check the Shield's display settings are set to 4K and your TV's HDMI input supports it, then play a 4K channel on a connection of at least 25 Mbps.

The app is awkward with the remote

Some players are designed for touchscreens. IPTV Smarters Pro and XtremeHD Player are easy to use with the Shield remote.

My login is rejected

The server URL must start with http://, not https://, and usernames and passwords are case-sensitive.

Still stuck? Message us on WhatsApp with your device, the app you are using and a photo of any error, and we will sort it out with you.
