Which IBO Player is the original (Samsung)
Search the Samsung store and you will find several apps with IBO or IBO Player in the name, which makes it hard to know which is the genuine one. The original is the app published by the official developer and paired with the iboplayer.com activation site, not the copycats that borrow the name and icon. This guide explains how to identify it, load a playlist by MAC, and avoid the imitations.

IPTV player guides FAQ
Which IPTV player should I use on my Samsung TV?
Use a player that is available in your region Samsung store and that we test on Tizen; our Samsung Smart TV setup guide walks through one end to end. MAC-registered players such as IBO Player and Smart IPTV also work but need activation on their own websites first.
What is a MAC-registered player?
It is a player that ties your playlist to the device MAC address. You register that MAC on the developer site, attach your playlist, and the app then loads it. IBO Player, Smart IPTV and Hot Player all work this way on Samsung.
Where are the full device setup guides?
