Help

How can we help?

Setting up takes a couple of minutes. Here's how, plus answers to the questions we hear most.

Add your playlist

  1. Find the Xtream Codes details your TV provider sent you: a server address, a username and a password.
  2. In Sportbeam, open Add your playlist. You'll see it after you sign in.
  3. Enter the server address with the port if there is one, for example example.com:8080. You can paste an M3U link instead.
  4. Enter your username and password and press Add playlist. Sportbeam checks the login and loads your channel guide.

Sign in on a TV

  1. Open Sportbeam on your Android TV. It shows a short code.
  2. On your phone or computer, go to sportbeam.tv/link. Sign in if you're asked.
  3. Enter the code and confirm. The TV signs in by itself, with your follows and playlists.
  4. Codes expire after a while. If yours has, get a new one on the TV.

Using Sportbeam

What is Sportbeam?

A sports schedule and player for your own TV subscription. You follow leagues, teams and players, and when one of their games is on, Sportbeam finds it in your playlist's channel guide and plays it.

Does Sportbeam come with channels?

No. Sportbeam doesn't sell, include or link to any channels or streams. You need a TV subscription from a provider that gives you an Xtream Codes login. Video goes straight from your provider to your device and never passes through Sportbeam.

Which playlists work?

Sportbeam works with Xtream Codes playlists: a server address, a username and a password. If your provider gave you an M3U link with a username and password in it, you can paste that instead.

Why doesn't a game show a channel?

Sportbeam matches games using your playlist's channel guide. If your provider's guide doesn't list the game, open the game and pick a channel yourself; star it and Sportbeam will try it first next time.

Your account

How many devices can I use?

Free works on 1 device at a time. Pro works on up to 5, all kept in sync. You can see and remove devices in your account.

Is my playlist login safe?

It's stored encrypted on your device and in your Sportbeam account, so it can sync to your other devices. It's only ever sent to your own provider, and we never show it in logs or share it.

How do I cancel Pro?

Go to Billing in your account. You keep Pro until the end of the period you paid for.

How do I delete my account?

Email hello@sportbeam.app from the address you signed up with and we'll delete your account and everything stored with it.

Still stuck?

Email us and a person will get back to you. Tell us which device you're on and what you see.

hello@sportbeam.app

Please don't send your playlist password. We'll never ask for it.
