FAQ

Frequently asked questions

General

What is MigFLIX?

MigFLIX is a media player and organizer. You connect the streaming sources you already have — a provider playlist, an Xtream Codes login, a single stream, or local video files — and MigFLIX turns them into a fast, modern Live TV, Movies, and Series experience.

Is MigFLIX a streaming service?

No. MigFLIX does not sell subscriptions, provide channels, or host movies and series. It's the app you use to organize and watch content from sources you connect yourself.

Does MigFLIX provide content?

No. All content comes from the source you connect — your own provider, playlist, or local files. MigFLIX is responsible for organizing and playing it well, not for supplying it.

Who is MigFLIX for?

Anyone who already has one or more streaming sources — an IPTV provider, a personal playlist, or local media — and wants a single, modern app to browse and watch them in.

Do I need my own IPTV provider to use MigFLIX?

You need at least one source of your own — a provider, a playlist, a single stream, or local video files. MigFLIX doesn't sell or recommend providers; you bring the source, and MigFLIX handles the experience around it.

Is MigFLIX free?

Yes. The Free plan includes up to 3 sources with ads. Premium is $3.99/month for unlimited sources, no ads, a 7-day TV Guide window where guide data is available, unlimited downloads, and system Picture-in-Picture — see our Pricing page for the full comparison.

Sources

What is a source?

A source is anything you connect to MigFLIX to watch — a provider login, a playlist link or file, a single stream, or a local video. Each source can bring its own Live TV, Movies, and Series.

What is a playlist?

A playlist is a specific kind of source — typically an M3U link or file — that lists out the channels or content a provider makes available.

Can I add multiple sources?

Yes. You can add more than one source and switch between them from inside MigFLIX.

How does switching sources work?

Pick a source from your list and MigFLIX switches your active library to it — its own Live TV, Movies, Series, favorites, and watch history.

Does MigFLIX merge my playlists?

No. Each source stays in its own space rather than being merged into one giant, mixed library. That's what makes source-switching useful instead of confusing.

Can I protect a source?

Where source protection is available, you can keep an individual source private so switching into it requires your password.

Can I remove a source later?

Yes. Removing a source removes its library and history from MigFLIX. Your other sources are unaffected — each one is independent.

Is there a limit to how many sources I can add?

Free includes up to 3 sources. Premium removes the source limit entirely.

Compatibility

Does MigFLIX support M3U?

Yes. Paste an M3U playlist URL and MigFLIX builds your library from it.

Does MigFLIX support M3U8?

Yes, compatible M3U8/HLS sources are supported through the same playlist and single-stream pipelines.

What's the difference between M3U and M3U8?

In practice, both describe a playlist that points to streams — M3U8 specifically signals UTF‑8 encoding and is the format most modern HLS streams use. MigFLIX handles both the same way. See our guide on M3U vs M3U8 for the full breakdown.

Does MigFLIX support Xtream Codes?

Yes. Sign in with the server, username, and password your provider gave you, and MigFLIX organizes the full library it returns.

Can I add a single stream URL without a full playlist?

Yes. If you only have one stream, you can add it directly instead of building out an entire provider library first.

Can I import a local playlist file?

Yes. Compatible M3U/M3U8 playlist files stored on your device can be imported directly, without needing to host them anywhere.

Can I play a local video?

Yes. You can open a video already on your device without leaving MigFLIX or switching to another player.

Does MigFLIX support Stalker/MAG portals or network tuners like HDHomeRun?

Not in the current version. MigFLIX currently supports Xtream Codes, M3U/M3U8 playlists, single streams, and local files. We're not advertising support for anything beyond that today.

Content

Can I watch Live TV?

Yes, when your source includes it. MigFLIX presents Live TV channels with search and category browsing.

Does MigFLIX support movies?

Yes, when your source includes a movie catalog. MigFLIX organizes it with artwork, categories, and search.

Does MigFLIX support series?

Yes, when your source includes series. MigFLIX organizes seasons and episodes and helps you move between them.

Can I search my whole library?

Yes. Search covers Movies, Series, and Live channels in your active source at once, with fast filtering as you type. See the Search section below for more.

Playback

Can I resume a movie where I left off?

Yes. MigFLIX remembers your playback progress on supported movies and episodes.

Does Continue Watching work?

Yes. Titles you've started but not finished show up in Continue Watching so you can jump right back in.

Can I switch episodes without leaving the player?

Yes, an in-player episode selector lets you move between episodes directly.

What is Up Next?

When an episode ends, MigFLIX can get the next one ready without sending you back through menus, where the feature is available.

Does MigFLIX have a mini player?

Yes. You can keep watching in a small floating window while you browse the rest of your library.

Does MigFLIX support subtitles and audio tracks?

You can switch subtitle and audio tracks whenever your stream provides more than one option. MigFLIX can't create tracks that aren't present in the source.

Does MigFLIX support Picture-in-Picture?

Both plans include an in-app mini player. System Picture-in-Picture — floating over other apps, outside MigFLIX — is a Premium feature on supported devices.

Is there a sleep timer?

Yes. Set a timer and MigFLIX will stop playback for you automatically.

What happens if a stream fails to load?

MigFLIX gives you plain, clear feedback instead of a cryptic error, and lets you retry — no technical codes to decode.

TV Guide

How does the TV Guide work?

When your source publishes program schedule data, MigFLIX turns it into a clean guide showing what's on now and what's coming up next.

Why doesn't my channel show guide information?

TV Guide data comes from your source. If a provider or channel doesn't publish schedule information, MigFLIX has nothing to display for it.

Does every provider include TV Guide data?

No — schedule data availability depends entirely on your provider or source. Some publish rich program guides; others publish none. See our guide on how TV Guide data works for more.

Downloads

Can I download a movie or episode?

Downloads are a Premium feature. Where a title supports it, Premium members can download and watch offline later. Availability depends on whether your source allows the stream to be saved.

Why is Download unavailable for a title?

Either you're on the Free plan (downloads require Premium), or the source or individual stream doesn't allow content to be saved — in which case MigFLIX won't offer a download for that title regardless of plan.

Can I download Live TV channels?

Downloads are aimed at movies and episodes, not live streams by nature — a live channel isn't a fixed file to save. Where a title genuinely supports saving, MigFLIX will offer it.

Privacy

Where is my watch history stored?

MigFLIX is built local-first — your library and viewing activity live on your device rather than depending on a cloud account. See our Privacy Policy for full details.

Are my provider credentials stored?

Provider details you enter are stored securely on your device so MigFLIX can reconnect you. See our Privacy Policy for exactly how source credentials are handled.

Do I need an account to use MigFLIX?

No account is required to start using MigFLIX. Optional account features, if offered, are always separate from basic playback.

Does MigFLIX sell my data?

No. See our Privacy Policy for the full, current detail on what's collected and how it's used.

Pricing

What can I use for free?

The Free plan includes up to 3 sources, Live TV, Movies, and Series, Continue Watching, favorites, and the in-app mini player — supported by ads.

What does Premium include?

Premium is $3.99/month and includes unlimited sources, an ad-free experience, a 7-day TV Guide window where guide data is available, unlimited downloads, and system Picture-in-Picture that floats over other apps. See the full comparison on our Pricing page.

How much does MigFLIX Premium cost?

Premium is $3.99 per month.

What's the difference between the mini player and Picture-in-Picture?

The mini player (Free and Premium) keeps a small floating window inside MigFLIX while you browse the rest of the app. System Picture-in-Picture (Premium) floats over other apps entirely, outside MigFLIX, on supported devices.

Can I download movies and episodes on the free plan?

Downloads are a Premium feature. On Premium, download supported movies and episodes without limit — availability still depends on whether your source allows the stream to be saved.
