Many ISPs additionally offer their users an IPTV service. Having a TV with Smart TV technology, you can watch IPTV from the provider using the SS IPTV application.
What is SS IPTV?
SS IPTV is a modern application created for TVs with Smart TV technology, which allows you to watch videos broadcast over the Internet.
The application itself does not provide TB services to the user. SS IPTV only gives access to content supplied by the provider. In fact, SS IPTV is an IPTV player, and if a user pays a provider for the provision of an IPTV viewing service, then all monetary transactions occur only between the user and the provider (SS IPTV has nothing to do with this). If the provider offers to show an unencrypted interactive TV, then you can independently upload the playlist he made to the application. Usually the list (playlist) is posted on the official website of such a provider. If you can’t find it, write to the technical support of your provider.
SS IPTV at the moment is a very actively moving forward platform, a real center of interactive entertainment right inside your TV. Playlists from several hundred IPTV operators, terrestrial channels, video content from online services, social networks and video hosting sites – all this is available to people who have only one application – SS IPTV. See below for a video review of the application:
