Troubleshooting Xtream Codes Setup

Login fails / "Authentication failed"

Double-check credentials. Server URL must include http:// and the port number. Username and password are case-sensitive. Try copying from your welcome email.

Channels load but some don't play

Specific stream servers may be temporarily down. Try the SD quality version of the channel. If many channels are affected, contact Flickhaven support.

"Could not connect to server"

Check your internet connection. Verify the server URL is correct — no trailing slash, correct port number. Try a different Wi-Fi network or mobile hotspot to rule out ISP issues.

EPG guide is empty

In your IPTV app settings, find EPG settings and press "Force Update" or "Reload EPG". EPG loading takes 2–5 minutes on first load. Ensure timezone is set to GMT/BST.

Playlist takes very long to load

Large playlists (20,000+ channels) take 30–90 seconds on first load. Subsequent loads are faster from cache. Ensure your internet connection is at least 25 Mbps.
