Fire TV & Firestick

Media player for Fire TV & Firestick

eKoPlayer is a media player for the Amazon Fire TV Stick and Fire TV Cube. It plays a playlist you already have — an M3U or M3U8 address, or an Xtream server — with a programme guide, catch-up and favourites, all driven from the Fire TV remote. It installs in a couple of minutes with a free Amazon app.

Full install steps Activate a device

Install with Downloader

1

Install Downloader

Search the Amazon Appstore on your Fire TV for Downloader, by AFTVnews. It is free and in Amazon's own store.

2

Allow it to install apps

Settings → My Fire TV → Developer options → Install unknown apps → turn on for Downloader. Fire OS asks this once.

3

Enter the code

Open Downloader and type 2976056, then choose Install. That is the whole thing.

Downloader code

Or type the short address aftv.news/2976056 straight into Downloader.

This is the sideloaded build. You activate it on this site, not inside the app. The download page has the video and the checksum to verify the file.

What you get

Your own playlist

An M3U or M3U8 address, or an Xtream server. eKoPlayer arrives empty and shows only what you point it at.

Programme guide with time-shift

An XMLTV guide, shifted by whole hours when yours runs early or late.

Built for the remote

D-pad navigation throughout — not a phone screen stretched to fit a Firestick.

Catch-up, favourites, subtitles

Past broadcasts where your source offers them, favourites, search, and subtitle or audio-track selection.

Fire TV questions

Which Fire TV devices work?

The Fire TV Stick, Fire TV Stick 4K, and Fire TV Cube all run eKoPlayer, along with Fire TV built into some televisions. Android 7.0 or newer.

Do I activate inside the app or on the site?

For a Fire TV install (the sideloaded build) you activate on this site. The app shows a Device ID and a QR code that carries it here for you.

Does it come with channels or films?

No. It is a player only, and arrives empty. You add your own playlist. We do not supply, host, resell or index any content.
