The Electronic Program Guide (EPG) offers channel listings in either a list or grid view, with a time-shift option for correcting listing times. Zoom Player Stream also supports live IPTV channels and video-on-demand content, with playback and subtitle controls for viewing streams outside a browser.
Connect an IPTV service
Set up a service with its username and password, or provide playlist and EPG links. Once connected, browse live channels and on-demand series or movies in the player.
The EPG can show listings as a list or a grid. If program times do not line up with local time, use EPG time-shifting to adjust them.
Organize channels and streams
Save preferred channels as favorites, then filter streams using local or global options. These tools provide ways to narrow a large IPTV lineup to the channels or programs being sought.
- Use the EPG to browse scheduled channel programming.
- Open available video-on-demand content, including series and movies.
Choose playback and subtitle controls
Zoom Player Stream supports hardware-accelerated 4K HDR playback for live streams and catch-up viewing. Subtitle synchronization controls can correct timing when captions drift out of step with the video.
Playback can be configured around different media engines and components. Available options include DirectShow and libVLC, as well as LAV Filters, MadVR, and MPC-VR. Running playback in a desktop player also keeps the stream outside a browser window.
