If you are looking for a post that shows you how to setup M3U playlist on smart tv you have made the right choice.First of all we have here a brief information of what is a m3u file. M3U is a computer file format for a media playlist. A common use of the M3U file format is to create a single-entry playlist file that points to an Internet stream. The file created provides easy access to this stream and is often used in downloads from a website, for sending via e-mail and for listening to Internet radio.
Although it was originally designed for audio files, such as MP3, it is commonly used to point media players to audio and video sources, including online sources. M3U was originally developed by Fraunhofer for use with their Winplay3 software, but numerous media players and software applications now support the format.M3U playlists have been the cause of vulnerabilities in many music players such as VLC media player, iTunes, Winamp and many others.
With IPTV links and playlists you will be able to run IPTV (Internet protocol television) on Smart TV via Smart TV App, Windows, Android smartphones and tablets, iOS devices like iPhone, iMac, iPad, Macbook Pro and Freesat V8, Duosat , Wondershare, Linux and Ubuntu, etc.

How to open a M3U file
VLC is a powerful favorite free media player thanks to its support for a wide variety of audio and video formats. Moreover, it supports not only the M3U format but also the similar playlist file types that you might encounter, such as M3U8, PLS, XSPF, WVX, CONF, ASX, IFO, CUE and others.Although Winamp was one of the first programs to support them, other media players can also open M3U files, such as Windows Media Player, iTunes and Audacious.
Note that the M3U file is not a media file. So, while the files pointed to by the M3U can open well in a media player other than the ones I’ve linked above, it’s possible that the program won’t understand the playlist file, so it won’t know what to do with when you try to open it.M3U files can, of course, be opened with any text editor because the files are text based .
