2. Adding a Local Playlist

You can also add a playlist directly in the player settings:

• Open the Playlist section and click the "+" button.
• Select "Direct Link" or "File".
• Enter the playlist URL and a playlist name. If you are adding a playlist from a file, first download the playlist file to your device, select "File", and browse to its location.
• Click "Save".

Note:
To obtain the playlist URL or playlist file, go to the My Devices section and click "Download" next to your device:

• Select Android.
• Select OTT Player.
• Under "Direct Links (http and https)", either copy the playlist URL or click "Download File", depending on your preferred method of adding the playlist.

When Uploading a Playlist in Your OttPlayer Account:

• Open the Playlists section.
• Click the Edit icon next to the playlist.

• Make sure that Catch-up is enabled in the playlist settings.

To enable Catch-up for a local playlist, you must first configure the EPG.
​

You can add a custom EPG source only if you are using a local playlist. If you added your playlist through your OttPlayer account on the website, the player will use its built-in EPG source automatically.

To add an EPG source manually, open the player settings:

• Go to "IPTV".
• Select "TV Guide".
• Click the "+" button in the upper-right corner.

• Enter the EPG source link in the appropriate field.
• Enable "Automatically Update".
• Click Done.

After adding the EPG source URL, the TV guide will begin downloading automatically. Wait for the EPG download and conversion process to complete.

2. Playlist Source - select "Link".
3. Direct Link - paste the Media Library playlist link for OttPlayer.
4. Devices - click "Select" and check the device you added earlier.
5. Click "OK" and wait for the playlist to load.

Please note that after the playlist has been uploaded successfully, a "green notification" will appear at the top of the screen.
If the playlist is not created after you click "OK", simply try creating it again.

Next, add the playlist in the player:

• Open Settings.
• Go to the Playlist section.
• Click the "+" button in the upper-right corner.
• Select "From the Server".
