Samsung smart TVs
eKoPlayer is a media player for Samsung smart televisions. It installs straight onto the set — no box, no stick, nothing plugged in — and then plays a playlist you already have: an M3U or M3U8 address, or an Xtream server. Live TV, films and series, with a programme guide and catch-up.
On the television you enter Samsung's own app code 134678, then the code we
send you, and the set installs eKoPlayer from Samsung's servers. Nothing is unlocked and no
setting is changed. Full steps are on the Samsung & LG page.
Older Tizen sets need a build made for your particular television. You send us the set's Unique Device ID, we build a copy for it, and we walk you through installing it once. It takes a few days rather than a few minutes.
Add an M3U or M3U8 address, or an Xtream server, username and password. eKoPlayer arrives empty and shows only what you point it at.
An XMLTV guide with a time-shift for when your guide runs early or late. Live TV, films and series are laid out the way a television should lay them out.
Reach past broadcasts where your source offers them, keep favourites, and search — all driven from the Samsung remote, not a phone screen stretched to fit.
Pick a subtitle track or a different audio language per stream, with the formats a Samsung set supports.
Many well-known players never run on a Samsung television at all — they are built for Android TV or a Fire TV Stick, so on a Samsung you would need to buy and plug in a separate box. eKoPlayer runs on the set itself, which is the whole point of a smart TV.
Switching from a player that only runs on Android TV? See the comparison — your playlist, favourites and guide work the same way here, on the Samsung you already own.
Samsung smart TVs from 2021 install in a few minutes using Samsung's app code. Sets from 2018 to 2020 are supported too, with a build made for your specific television. Full steps are on the Samsung & LG page.
No box and no stick — the app runs on the television. And no content subscription: eKoPlayer is a player only. You bring a playlist you already have.
No. The app code is Samsung's own mechanism for trying an app before it is in the store, and the set installs from Samsung's servers. No setting is changed.
No. It arrives empty and stays empty until you add your own playlist. We do not supply, host, resell or index any content.
