Setup Guides

Aurum works with the popular free player apps — there's no special Aurum app to buy. Find your device below and follow the steps. Most people are watching in about 5 minutes.

Before you start

Have your activation email handy. Every guide below uses the same three things from it: your username, your password, and the server address (some apps call it the Server URL; your email also includes an M3U playlist link, which a few apps ask for instead). Type them exactly as shown — they're case-sensitive.

Fire TV / Firestick / Fire TV Cube

Recommended apps: Smarters Pro, or TiviMate

Easiest — Smarters Pro:

  1. From the Firestick home screen, use Search and look for Smarters Pro. Install it and open it. (If it isn't listed in your region's store, use the TiviMate steps below instead.)
  2. Choose Login with Xtream Codes API.
  3. Enter any name you like (e.g. "Aurum"), then the username, password, and server address from your activation email.
  4. Tap Add User. Your channels and the TV guide load automatically — give the first load a minute.

Most popular — TiviMate:

  1. Install the free Downloader app from the Amazon App Store.
  2. Go to Firestick Settings → My Fire TV → Developer Options and allow Downloader to install apps (turn on "Apps from Unknown Sources" / "Install unknown apps" for Downloader).
  3. Open Downloader, enter tivimate.com, and download/install the TiviMate app from the official site.
  4. Open TiviMate → Add Playlist → Xtream Codes, and enter the server address, username, and password from your activation email.
  5. Let the playlist and TV guide finish loading — done.

Android TV (Sony, TCL, Hisense, Nvidia Shield, Android TV boxes)

Recommended apps: TiviMate or Smarters Pro — both free in the Google Play Store

Still stuck?

First, double-check the username, password, and server address are typed exactly as in your activation email (they're case-sensitive, and it's easy to mix up a 0 and an O). If channels still won't load at all, your internet provider may be blocking the servers — turning on a VPN fixes that. And you can always email us at sales@phantasmtech.com — a real person will help you get set up.
