MXL TV for Android

MXL TV is a streaming video player by MXL that handles IPTV channel lists and direct media links on Android devices. It is built around playback rather than content hosting, meaning it opens streams and playlists you already have access to instead of providing a channel lineup of its own.

The player works with a wide range of streaming protocols, including http, https, mms, rtsp and rtmp. It loads M3U lists and m3u8 channels from local storage or from a remote address, and it can scan your device recursively to locate M3U files so you do not have to browse folders manually. Playback quality depends on the speed of your connection, whether that is Wi-Fi or 4G.

Beyond plain playback, the app decodes lists written for the most common IPTV list formats and pulls in an electronic program guide automatically. An internal player is included, and there is an option to hand the stream over to MX Player instead. Chromecast support lets you push playback to a larger screen, and the interface is available in Spanish, English and French.

The build described here is version 3.1.1-phones, updated on 2024-10-31, and it requires Android 5.0 or newer. The package is 41 MB, is offered free of charge, and carries an Everyone content rating. Its release history on this listing goes back to 2021-12-20.

What's New · 3.1.1-phones

Version 3.1.1-phones of MXL TV brings a change to notifications for Android 13. No other release details were published for this update, which arrived on 2024-10-31. The app remains a streaming video player for phones, requiring Android 5.0 or newer, and the download is about 41 MB.

This app suits users who already have IPTV subscriptions or M3U playlists and want a single Android player that can open local files, remote lists and direct stream links. It also fits people who prefer casting playback to a television through Chromecast or who like using MX Player as their rendering engine.

Keep your M3U lists in one folder so the recursive search finds them quickly. If a stream stutters, check whether Wi-Fi or mobile data is the bottleneck, since playback is tied to available bandwidth. You can remove lists and channels you no longer use to keep the interface tidy, and switching the output to MX Player may help with formats the internal player handles less smoothly.

MXL TV is a free, lightweight player for M3U lists and direct streams on Android 5.0 and above. With broad protocol support, automatic list discovery, EPG loading and Chromecast output, it covers the essentials for IPTV playback without extra cost.
