Set up the TV guide (EPG)

The TV guide (EPG) shows what is on now and next. It comes from your provider. With Xtream it loads automatically; with an M3U link you add a separate guide link.

Add a guide link to an M3U source

  1. 1

    On TV: when connecting your source, enter the link in “XMLTV EPG URL (optional)”.

  2. 2

    On iPhone, iPad and Android phones: More → Sources, open your source with Edit and fill in “Guide link (EPG, optional)”.

  3. 3

    Save. The first time, loading the guide can take a minute.

Guide times are early or late

  1. 1

    On TV: open Sources, select your source → Edit, and use “EPG time correction”.

  2. 2

    On iPhone, iPad and Android phones: More → Sources → Edit → “Guide time correction”, then tap Earlier or Later.

  3. 3

    Only use this if the guide runs ahead of or behind the channel. Normally it stays at 0.

Zofa TV is a player only. It does not provide TV channels or IPTV subscriptions. You need your own source that you are legally allowed to use.

Frequently asked questions

Why is my guide empty?

Your source has no guide, or the guide link is missing. Ask your provider for the XMLTV (EPG) link, or use an Xtream login.

Some channels have a guide and others do not.

The guide only matches channels that your provider includes in the EPG file. Missing channels show “No programme information”.

Can I watch programmes again from the guide?

If your provider supports replay for a channel, the guide shows “Watch again”. Otherwise you watch live.
