Openbox v8 Golden and v8 super supports three file to import,
that priority order as follows：
1. iptvlist.txt
2. custom_url.m3u
3. custom_url.m3u8

iptv.txt format:
name channel, http://xxxxx.xxxxx.xxxxx.m3u8

custom_url.m3u
#EXTM3U
#EXTINF:-1,name channel
http://xxxxx.xxxxx.xxxxx.m3u8

custom_url.m3u8
#EXTM3U
#EXTINF:-1,name channel
http://xxxxx.xxxxx.xxxxx

you can create IPTV playlist with notepad or editing program such as Editplus then save to above format do you need.
after copy files to root USB stick then insert USB stick still watch satellite TV and show popup then press yes and OK.
Finished for import IPTV playlist.

How do you load an IPTV list into a Freesat V8 super ?

If you tell me how to do it, I will try to create a group because I am interested in learning how to do it as well.

I don't understand.

How do I Ioad an IPTV channel list into a Freesat v8 super box.

Does it have to be in the M3u format ?

To load IPTV list its easy =

You create your iptv list on note pad. Save it on a USB key with following name = custom_url.m3u
Connect the USB key to your Freesat V8, and confirm OK to import the customer list.

That's all !

you copy file name"custom_url.m3u" into root of U-stick then insert in freesat v8 USB still you watch TV satellite
after insert USB stick, It will show popup" yes or no". you must press yes and OK for import IPTV playlist.

Press custom botton on remote to watch IPTV.

IPTV amount Max 1024 channel only.

Hello,
I try to update my iplist, but the maximum channels I am able to load is 554 !

My channels are defined as following =

#EXTINF:-1 tvg-id="" tvg-name="******** ENFANTS ********" tvg-logo="" group-title="CANAL+ HD/SD - IPTV",******** ENFANTS ********
http://walxxxxxxl.dxxxxxx.net:xxxxxx0/live/xxxxxxx/xxxxx0/3xxxxx0.ts

I have to modify it ?
thanks for your help

[p.mesquita]

Ok I found the solution.
I have converted my M3U list to Iptvlist.txt (using UniM3u program) and I have now 1024 channels !

Probably the problem was due to a maximum lines exceeded with the M3U file.
