1. Prepare Your Enigma 2 Device

  • Ensure your Enigma 2 device is connected to your TV and the internet.
  • You’ll need to install a plugin called XtreamTV or use Putty to add the IPTV subscription via Xtream Codes.

2. Install the XtreamTV Plugin (if not already installed)

  • Option 1: Manual Installation

    1. Download the XtreamTV plugin from your IPTV provider's website or another trusted source.
    2. Transfer the plugin file to your Enigma 2 device via FTP. You can use FTP software like FileZilla.
    3. Connect to your Enigma 2 device using FTP:
      • Host: Your Enigma 2 device IP address
      • Username: root
      • Password: Usually blank or dreambox
    4. Upload the plugin file to the /tmp/ directory.
    5. On your Enigma 2 device, go to Menu > Setup > Software Management > Install local extension.
    6. Select the plugin file you uploaded and install it.
    7. Restart your Enigma 2 device.
  • Option 2: Use Putty to Install Plugin

    1. Download Putty on your computer.
    2. Open Putty and enter the IP address of your Enigma 2 device, then click Open.
    3. Login using:
      • Username: root
    4. Run the following command (replace http://example.com/xtreamtv.ipk with the actual URL provided by your IPTV provider):
      wget http://example.com/xtreamtv.ipk -O /tmp/xtreamtv.ipk
    5. Then install the plugin with:
      opkg install /tmp/xtreamtv.ipk
    6. Restart your Enigma 2 device.

3. Set Up IPTV with Xtream Codes in XtreamTV Plugin

  • Step 1: Open the XtreamTV plugin on your Enigma 2 device.
  • Step 2: You should see a screen asking for activation. The activation URL or code is usually provided by your IPTV provider.
  • Step 3: Enter the Xtream Codes details:
    • Username: (Your IPTV username)
    • Password: (Your IPTV password)
    • Server URL: (The URL provided by your IPTV provider, e.g., http://yourprovider.com:8080)
  • Step 4: Once the details are entered, your IPTV channels should start loading.

4. Set Up IPTV via M3U Playlist (Alternative Method)

  • If your IPTV provider doesn’t support the XtreamTV plugin, you can use an M3U playlist:
    1. Obtain the M3U playlist URL from your IPTV provider.
    2. Use an FTP client like FileZilla to connect to your Enigma 2 device.
    3. Upload the M3U playlist to the /etc/enigma2/ directory.
    4. Reboot your device.
    5. Your channels should now appear under Favorites or a similar section.

5. Start Watching

  • Navigate through the IPTV channels on your Enigma 2 device using the XtreamTV plugin or M3U playlist.

6. Troubleshooting (if needed)

  • If the channels don’t load:
    • Double-check your Xtream Codes credentials (username, password, server URL).
    • Ensure your internet connection is stable.
    • Reboot your device and try again.

7. Optional: Use EPG (Electronic Program Guide)

  • Many IPTV providers offer an EPG link that you can add to your Enigma 2 setup for a guide to what’s on each channel. This can usually be added through the plugin settings or by modifying the M3U playlist.
