This trick is simple and as far as I know, is legal too.

The concept here is to load publicly available TV channels via Kodi, VLC, and Pot Player. You don’t need any Setup box or Dish antenna to make this work. All you need is a really good internet speed and of course a PC, Tablet, or Android TV

Many TV channels including Indian media give access to view their channels online via an IP or also called IPTV m3u8 format, we call this an IPTV. Usually, these kinds of IPTV links are available for free and many are paid too.

Our goal here is to load publicly available TV channels on Kodi VLC, and POT Player. The best part here is that Kodi, VLC, and POT Player are available on desktops, Laptops, Mobiles, Android, Apple Phones, and Android TV too.

Setting Up Free 5000+ Live TV Channels Step by Step:

Okay, enough intro let’s get started.

First, we need to download a couple of these on our Desktop to get started, they are:

• 7Zip
• VLC Media Player
• POT Player
• Kodi

Why is 7Zip Required?

We are going to download some zip files from Github. These files come in a zip format or are compressed with a zip archive. We need to extract them. The best way to do it is with 7Zip. You can also try WinRAR or any decompression or compression application.

Why VLC Player is Required?

As normal users, we have always underestimated VLC players. Basically to be frank we never knew the power of VLC. Until we learned what it can do. We can Play a Local video file. Stream online TV channels or even record Online TV shows. I guess now you know why we use the VLC player.

Why POT Player is Required?

I wouldn’t say a pot player is required. It’s fairly optional if you ask me. The reason being using pot player is because I did see some channels that did not work in Kodi and VLC, but worked awesome in Pot Player. So here Pot Player is more like an alternative to the VLC media player.

Why Kodi is Required?

Working with VLC and Pot Player is awesome when you are on a PC. But if you are using a Mobile Phone, like Android and Smart TV with Android OS, it becomes really hard to set up live TV. This is where Kodi plays a vital role. Kodi is available for both Smart Phone and Android TV. Which makes it easier to configure.

So let’s get started with watching Live TV Channels Completely FREE with Kodi Live Tv Addons

First things first. We need the source for our live TV, and the source is usually in m3u or m3u8 format. So how do we find it?. Well, we need to go to GitHub. The one place where you can find almost anything.

So let’s go to GitHub and look for Live Tv, You don’t have to do that, because I already did it and all you have to do is download the GitHub repository.

Go to this link https://github.com/iptv-org/iptv and download the zip file.

You can click on the green code button that will show a drop-down to download.

Once you download it, now you can extract the files with 7Zip and store them in a place. In my case, I have saved it on the Desktop. Once you have extracted the files, you will see the following files inside it.

Okay great, we got what we needed. Now to the next step.
