Paste the supplied playlist URL
Copy the complete M3U or playlist value into the network address field, check that no characters or spaces were added, and choose Play or Open.
- 4
Allow the first playlist load
Keep the player open while it retrieves the playlist. If playback starts immediately, open the playlist or sidebar view to browse other entries.

Use the playlist panel
Open VLC’s playlist view to browse and switch entries. Use the player’s own search or category view if a different compatible desktop player was supplied.
- 6
Save details only on a private computer
If the player can remember the stream or account, use that option only on a computer you control. Test reopening the saved item before relying on it.

Common problems
Troubleshooting
Work through the relevant checks in order. If the problem continues, share the device model, player name, and exact on-screen message with Support without exposing account details.
The network address is rejected
Copy the complete supplied value again, remove leading or trailing spaces, and confirm that the correct Open Network action is being used.
The playlist opens but nothing plays
Test another entry, confirm the computer is online, and review any normal firewall prompt for the trusted player. Contact Support if several entries fail.
Playback stutters
Pause downloads and cloud synchronisation, restart the network, and try Ethernet. Test another entry before assuming that the computer or connection is the only cause.
The playlist is difficult to browse
Open the player’s playlist or sidebar panel and use its search where available. A trusted desktop player with guide support may be more suitable when the supplied account format supports it.
The player is blocked or will not open
Confirm it came from the official publisher, install current system updates, and follow the operating system’s normal security message. Do not bypass security for an unknown download.
The app closes during loading
Restart the player and computer, update the player from its official publisher, and close memory-heavy applications before loading the playlist again.
