====== The section in brief and navigation ======

----

The IPTV Channels menu option offers access to IPTV services and video on demand, both free or from your Internet provider. To add an operator’s channel list, use the Choose IPTV channel item in the sidebar modal menu (press the Menu button on the remote to bring the menu to the screen). Enter the country of your location, your city and the Internet provider you are connected to. To add an open access playlist choose the Add IPTV list item in the modal menu and enter a link to a file in m3u format. You can also download a playlist file from external media connected via USB using the Home Media section (select the item you need, press {{:ok.png?nolink|«ОК»}} and then {{:f3.png?nolink|}} - Add content to IPTV channels).

The section interface is a long list with channel numbers and their names. The selected channel is displayed in a background preview mode. To the right is an information pane with the channel’s name and its web address. 

To move up and down the list, use standard buttons of the remote:
  * one item up or down – Up / Down buttons 
  * one page up or down – {{:pgup.png?nolink|}} and {{:pgdown.png?nolink|}} buttons (or PgUp/PgDn on the keyboard)
  * to the beginning of the current folder – Left button (Left or Home on the keyboard)
  * to the end of the current folder – Right button  (Right or End on the keyboard)

Press {{:f4.png?nolink|}} to search through the channels.

To switch to the full screen mode, press   {{:ok.png?nolink|}} (Enter) after selecting a channel. Press the button once more to return to the channel list with background preview.  

When in full screen mode, press  {{:menu_old.png?nolink&}} or {{:menu.png?nolink|}} to open the modal menu with audio, subtitling and TimeShift settings. Use Channel +/- buttons to switch between channels.
