ROKU IPTV SETUP GUIDE

Set Up KING TV On Roku Or Roku TV

Roku does not use Android applications, so the Android IPTV PRO app cannot be installed directly. Use a compatible Roku player from the Streaming Store, cast from a phone, or use developer mode only when support supplies a trusted package.

BEFORE YOU INSTALL ANYTHING

Keep These Four Things Ready

The Roku and the phone or computer used during setup should be connected to the same home network.

1

Your Roku Device

Connect the Roku player or Roku TV to the internet and complete any pending Roku system update.

2

Your Activation Email

Keep the server, username, password or M3U link visible on another device.

3

A Phone Or Computer

A second device makes it easier to enter long login details or use a casting method.

4

The Same Wi-Fi Network

The Roku and setup device must normally be on the same local network for casting or developer access.

Important about IPTV PRO
IPTV PRO remains the priority recommendation on supported Android and Fire TV devices. A similarly named Roku channel may be a different third-party application, so do not assume it is the same app.
CHOOSE THE EASIEST METHOD

Select The Setup That Matches Your Roku

Use the first option that works. Do not enable developer mode when a compatible Roku channel is available in your regional Streaming Store.

RECOMMENDED START

Install A Roku Player

Search the Roku Streaming Store for a compatible IPTV player that accepts Xtream Codes or an M3U playlist.

Use The Direct Roku Method
EASY ALTERNATIVE

Cast From A Phone

Install Web Video Caster Receiver on Roku and use the matching mobile application to send supported streams to the television.

Use The Casting Method
ADVANCED ONLY

Use Developer Mode

Use this only when support provides a trusted Roku package and the direct Store or casting methods are unsuitable.

Use The Correct Login Type

Do not mix details from different methods. All values must come from the same KING TV activation email.

EASY ALTERNATIVE

Cast A Supported Stream From Your Phone

This method uses the official Roku receiver channel and the matching Web Video Caster mobile application. The exact stream or playlist features available can depend on the mobile app version.

1

Install The Roku Receiver

Search the Roku Streaming Store for Web Video Caster Receiver and add the channel.

2

Install The Mobile App

Install the matching Web Video Caster application on the Android phone, iPhone or tablet.

3

Connect To The Same Wi-Fi

Make sure the Roku and mobile device are connected to the same home network.

4

Select The Roku Receiver

Open the mobile app, choose the Roku device and send a compatible stream or media link to the television.

Use casting only when the app can open the format supplied for your account.
If the mobile application cannot read the link or playlist, return to the direct Roku player method or contact support with the exact Roku model and app name.
ADVANCED METHOD

Use Developer Mode Only When Support Supplies The Package

Developer mode is an advanced option. Continue only when KING TV support or a trusted application developer gives you the exact Roku package. Do not download random packages from websites.

REMOTE BUTTON SEQUENCE

Open Roku Developer Settings

1HOME three times
2UP two times
3RIGHT once
4LEFT once
5RIGHT once
6LEFT once
7RIGHT once

Press the buttons one after another in this exact order. Do not hold them down or press them at the same time.

Write down the Roku address
The Developer Settings screen displays the local URL used from a browser on the same network.
1

Enable The Installer

Select Enable installer and restart, accept the licence agreement and create a webserver password.

2

Open The Roku Address

On a computer connected to the same network, enter the local Roku URL shown on the television.

3

Sign In As rokudev

Use rokudev as the username and the webserver password created on the Roku.

4

Upload The Trusted Package

Select Upload, choose the package supplied by a trusted developer or support, then select Install.

5

Return To The Roku Home Screen

Open the sideloaded application and enter the KING TV login details that match its supported method.

Only one development application can be sideloaded at a time.
Installing another development package replaces the previously sideloaded app. Developer mode is not the preferred setup for older customers.
USE THE CORRECT FIX

Solve Roku Problems Without Starting Again

Check the matching problem before removing channels, resetting the Roku or enabling developer mode.

APP NOT FOUND

Search For Another Compatible Player

Roku Store availability differs by region and model. Choose another player supporting the same login type or contact support.

LOGIN REJECTED

Check Every Field

Confirm the complete server address, username and password. Remove spaces before or after each value.

EMPTY PLAYLIST

Reload The Player

Close and reopen the Roku channel. Confirm the current M3U or Xtream details were entered in the correct fields.

CASTING CANNOT CONNECT

Use The Same Network

Confirm the Roku and phone are on the same Wi-Fi network and that mobile-app control is not blocked by the router.

BUFFERING OR FREEZING

Restart The Network

Restart the Roku and router, test another channel and use stronger Wi-Fi or Ethernet where supported.

WORKS ON HOTSPOT

Check The Home Connection

If playback works through a mobile hotspot but not home internet, open the KING TV connection help page.

Open Connection Help
Do not factory reset the Roku as the first fix.
A reset removes installed channels and account settings. Restart the player, Roku and router first, then contact support with the exact error.

Can I install the Android IPTV PRO app on Roku?

No. Roku uses its own operating system and does not install Android APK files. Use a compatible Roku player, casting method or a trusted Roku development package.

Which Roku player should I install?

Choose a player available in your regional Roku Streaming Store that supports the same login type shown in your KING TV activation email, normally Xtream Codes or M3U.

Why can I not find the same Roku app?

Application availability can change by country, Roku model and Store policy. Search for another compatible player or contact support with the exact Roku model.

Can I use Web Video Caster with Roku?

Yes, the Web Video Caster Receiver channel can be installed on Roku and paired with the matching mobile application. The stream format must be supported by the mobile app.

Do I need developer mode?

Usually not. Use developer mode only when a compatible Store app or casting method is unsuitable and support provides a trusted Roku package.

Why does the Roku browser page not open?

The computer and Roku must be on the same local network. Confirm the Roku address shown in Developer Settings and check that router isolation is not blocking local devices.

Restart the Roku and router, test another channel and use stronger Wi-Fi or Ethernet where supported. Open connection help when playback works only through a mobile hotspot.

Does KING TV renew automatically?

Send The Roku Model, App Name And Error Screen
