FAQ

Find answers to frequently asked questions about LillyPlayer

Does LillyPlayer provide channels or content?

No. LillyPlayer is a media player: it does not include any channels or content. You need your own IPTV subscription, M3U playlist, Xtream account or personal media to use it.

Which sources are compatible with LillyPlayer?

LillyPlayer supports IPTV through Xtream (EPG, replay) and M3U playlists, TVHeadend (channels and recordings), Jellyfin and Plex servers, as well as your files over SMB, FTP, WebDAV and UPnP.

Which video and audio formats are supported?

All major video and audio formats play directly on your device, with no conversion: 4K HDR, HDR10(+), Dolby Vision, Dolby Atmos, DTS-HD, TrueHD and AV1.

Why is LillyPlayer not compatible with SMB version 1?

LillyPlayer is not compatible with Samba (SMB) version 1 because it has many security vulnerabilities.

We recommend using SMB version 2 or 3 for better security.

How to activate AirPlay for video?

You must activate screen mirroring on your iOS device. Watch the video below to see how to activate it:

A video does not work when broadcasting to my TV (UPnP/DLNA)

There may be several causes for this problem:

  • Your video uses a codec (compression) that is not compatible with your UPnP/DLNA device
  • Access to this video is not compatible with your device (for example, your sharing uses SMB or requires a login/password)

If the problem concerns access, try downloading the video to your device and broadcast it from the local folder of your iOS device.

AirPlay or UPnP/DLNA broadcast stops after a few moments

You must leave your device on and unlocked during the broadcast. The playback will stop if your device goes to sleep.
