[suadali03]

Hello, I'm a noob here and theres so many threads and topics on this but I just cant seen to find a single step by step instructuon how to do this. I have the mag254 box but I would like to setup my Iptv on my mac now Using Kodi. Any help would be appreciated to get this going. Thank you..

You will need to break up this task into two parts:

1. Install KODI on you Mac. Do a google search on how to do that. I'm sure there are videos out there that will help for that.
2. Follow the different tutorials to install/configure an appropriate add-on or PVR to access the service. See my signature for a brief summary of what is available to you. You will need to learn how to install add-ons to Kodi, it's basic to using it.

There is not going to be a complete step-by-step for all situations.

Thank you Dara, I have Kodi Installed, I running Jarvis right now. I also know how to add add-ons from either zip or respositories. I'm having hard time with the other steps. I was finally able to update my mac address without errors and things like that. So that is All set.

I did try to go through all those threads but seems like it's too much information. I'll go through it again and see what I can get. I'll try uninstalling kodi and then try again. I am also trying to do this on my macbook so I don't know if that makes a difference. Thank you. I really appreciate your reply

If you follow the instructions in the first post of the stickies, you'll probably be fine. You really can't have it both ways ... either there is too much info, or not enough.

I suggest you re-read the post in the second link in my sig, and pick an add-on, then follow the link to get to the instructions that work. For beginners, try the IPTV Stalker add-on. To connect, the basic idea is to make sure that you have the same settings on both the server and the add-on.

I installed the stalker client nfps. I keep getting the the Authetication error. I can try the the other one you suggested and see what happens. There is plenty of Information I guesss I was doubting myself. Anyways I truely Appreciate your help. Also I am confused when you say That I must have the same setting on both the server and the add on? Can you explain this to me please. Thank you so much.

I got the IPTV stalker going on. I think this is good enough for me right now. Thank you very much. I appreciate all your help. I had my server url set on the wrong one.I just had to slow down and read slowly. Its easy to miss on those things. Thank you very much. Appreciate all the help.

Basically, the server initially knows nothing about your connection, other than it sees a valid donation number for that server. You let it know what MAC you want it to accept (which starts with "00:1A:78") via the donation checker. On the add-on you enter the server you were assigned, the MAC that you wanted the server to see, and if required, device info (Serial Number, device id, and optionally device_id2 and signature). The server should store that device info so when you reconnect again, it knows that you are a valid account.

If these don't match up, you will get an "Authentication Error", but you can reset the connection details on the donation checker by changing the MAC or by clicking "IPTV Reset".
