MAC-id connections were the oldest IPTV connection method.They were designed fo old M-G boxes more than a decade ago.Modern Apps like mol3,Tivimate,etc prefer XC or m3u because MAC-id has several limitations.

1/MAC-id is an old,legacy system.

2/MAC-id loads everything at once-causing, crashes.Users see*stuck at 53%*stuck at 5%*no inet connection even though internet works*App force closing.

3/XC & m3u are optimized protocols*load data in smaller chunks*allow faster EPG updates*support better error handling*work with modern IPTV features*more stable on formulerz11/z12 devices

I advice always forum user to take NOT the whole package! Cause it's so big at some providers.

My advice is always to take ONLY the countries you really watch. Same as vod/series.

If you are from Belgium or so:

Then as example the countries, belgium, france, netherlands, usa an uk?

And as vod/series: english, netherlands/belgium and france.

Much faster loading and nice small bouquette. You don't watch arabic, russia, china etc. So why take the whole package?

That is what I found at a good price. Didn't even know about BT1

For 20/25 euro/dollar +-, you can order a bluetooth remote for the formuler z11. You can order it as exanple here: Formuler gtv bt1 remote.

Control your tv with it and your box😃

Maby An idea my friend?

Use CHAT co-pilot on your windows laptop or CHAT GPT on your Apple device

That's what i saw and ment. Good job.!

It's so simple those days.

Yes, use google and you know why

Quote from Maxbro1211

Why is mac id outdated?

Explain why

Never had issue with mac id what are you talking about

Providers decided that cause macs are simple to copy and with xtream codes api you have more options like watch back programs etc.

90% of the providers or more give only xtream codes.

Url, name and pass.

Quote from Great Scott

I am new to MYTV however I have a formuler Ultra 12 That I purchased a few months ago. Everything worked really well and then my service stopped a couple days ago. I've been working with the IPTV provider however I am getting a similar error. MYTV app tries to connect and gets to 5% and then gives me an error saying "not connected to the internet". I've contacted my ISP and they attempted to help but nothing is working. If anyone has any suggestions please let me know. Thanks

Works internet fine on box? Youtube or dinsey+ or so?

Like Henkie says: macid is outdated since 2 years or so.

Please provide url, username and password.

Works much better en more options.

He will take it personally as he expected to have bought a "Plug and Play" box,not everyone is an "Enlightened" like you,but i understand your frustration in this specific case,so stay yourself as a very helpfull human

It's not the frustation. Bit plugin a ethernet cable and have internet and then plug it put? Then you got no internet.

Sorry Ples123 please use ethernet cable for fast and stable internet please.

Quote from Ples123

Hi I connect with an Ethernet cable and I clicked dhcp and when I remove the Ethernet cable it won't work only when I'm plugged in why you tube don't work when Ethernet cable is plugged in either so can I use the Ethernet cable

Why remove ethernet cable? It give you fast and stable internet🙈

Don't take it personally!: but why buy a box and tv sub if you don't know how it works?

Quote from patchb01

Honestly, MyTVOnline3 on the Z11 Pro Max is quite disappointing. At first boot, the device gives the impression of being solid and powerful, but in practice it doesn’t work properly.

I activated a Stalker portal, but the update stops at 60%, then MyTVOnline3 restarts without displaying anything.

At the same time, I tested the exact same Stalker portal with the same MAC address, the same IP, and the same country (no VPN), and surprisingly Vstro works perfectly. Vstro connects to the Stalker portal and starts the live channels, VOD, and series without any issue.

So now I’m wondering if investing in the Z11 was a mistake. Before that, I had a Mecool KM7+, which worked perfectly even with official Android 14, using the free Vstro app, and it costs less than $70.

In the end, 4GB RAM and 32GB storage don’t really make a difference. What the end user really wants is a stable and efficient app.

Just sharing my experience. Hope this helps.

Do nr 2 what sam advice.

Xc api.

Url, username and password.

The best protocol✅️

I had him when it came out.

First minor problem.

Then 3 times factory reset and now it work like a charm since the week of release.

Never had problem like others.

Maby cause i got am expensive hdmi cable and a known tv brand like the lg 55qned866r.

They work together flawless. i hope the update comes very soon for the users who has problems.

i factory reset it first week, installed and updated it and setup mytvonline3.

Installed disney+, skyshowtime, kodi, nxwitness app (camera's), mx player pro, nordvpn, internet speed test and installend the best 3th party file manager plus. And that's it.

Oh and hb player and bearplayer from other website.

Works like a charm!

So happy with it.

Quote from Ples123

Hi when I try to connect to my url portal and I get an error message messages and I did reach out to the provider and they say everything is good but u still can’t access it and I try to go on u tube and that won’t work either none of my apps work what would cause this The content cannot be displayed because it is no longer available.

Check your internet!

Put in utp/ethernet cable and go to internet settings on your box.

Click on dhcp then.

There you should see then an ip address.

Test first youtube, if that works. Tey your tv subscription.

Or try it with wifi, but that i won't recommend. But you can make 2 different internet connections.

Or you choose for cable/utp/ethernet. (My advice)

Or use wifi.

And try it with ipv6 on and off. It's on the buttom at internet settings on your box.

Paid vpn's are always better and more speed and better secured. Also almost don't save log files.

I follow your thread, but it's highly likely that free vpn's so much used by other users and they should have a lot buffers.

Maby it's only fine to search the web with it, but not for streaming...

You can delete nordvpn already and search in playstore for free vpn's.

And try them one by one! Only install one vpn on your box and test then. Don't install more then one!!

Beware that you also need at some vpn's a username/email and password.

Quote from Gathus

Good morning everyone.

Will the Formuler Z11 not be updated to Android 12?

Thanks

No, all boxes stay always on the Android were they came with.

Only the formuler GTV did had an upgrade cause its the only one with AndroidTV and google certified.

Quote from Ples123

I tried all of it and still nothing works

Did you connect with vpn or without vpn?

And did you buy new iptv last week/month? Can also be that they are scammers.

They let you watch a week or month and then refund your subscription and sell to another.

I hope it's not the case.

Did you contacted already iptv provider?

Let them reset your account and or make new username and or password.

Quote from espadartico

Quote from Ples123

Contact provider for credentials.

Maby they changed url or url is blocked.

Quote from enigma

Iám Try 3 diferents chargers, dont result.

Looks like it's broken. You can try other hdmi port and then have a look what the box does.

Quote from mikki

Hello everyone!

I am interested in the possibility of downloading the firmware for the Formuler S2X offline, specifically the firmware versions 1.7.73 and 1.7.76

Please provide these firmware versions for download

Thanks

No it is...

Quote from AarBee

I ordered Formuler Z11 Pro!

Good choice, why not Z11 pro max bt1?

Bluetooth remote etc

Quote from AarBee

Hello Members,
If I have to upgrade to another IPTV box that is newer and has latest features, which one should I buy? What I need is the user interface and the ease of use very similar to Dream link Dlite+ 5G and off course priced in the same range.

Thanks.

This is a formuler forum.

But i advice the Z12 Ultra. The best of the best and with Dolby Atmos and Dolby Vision support.

If that's not in your price range, then i advice the Formuler Z11 Pro Max bt1.

Lower then the Z11 i shouldn't go!.

Ps: the Z11 pro max doesn't support dolby vision. 1 little thing, but not important for some users. And Z11 pro max bt1 is cheaper.

But my advice is still the Z12 Ultra!

Please don't make the mistake to go lower as an Z11 box.

Quote from Rudi

Update, factory reset Z12 and now both portal installed, A hassle but at least ok now.

I suspect first time i installed the new portal i enter a wrong password, the second time i saw the mistake and corrected it, but it failed each time.. Now with the reset ok now.

Good job.

The credentials...

...yes that's problem sometimes.

No that's not the problem my friend henkie

Mol3 can't connect to his portal. Maby ask other credentials and or mol3 needs little fix.

Quote from Rudi

Update,

Installed free version of tvimate on the Z12 ultra and it loaded perfectly..

So definitely can say, the fault is on the side of Myonline3..

I had tested a lot if services since 2014...

...never had that mytvonline 1, 2 or 3 the portal couldn't connect.

But it's possible i see.

Yes i had it some times, but that was my own fault due wrong credentials.

If SAM can't also connect on your service, then mytvonline3 needs update.

Goodday my friend

Quote from bling2bling

Thank you guys for the help, with a portal login everything is working fine, no more blackscreen in the end, i think the problem with the m3u login is that i play my private videos file by file, With the portal login xcapi it feels like a endless stream like a normal tv channel. But its realy strange, this problem is only with myonlinetv3 and the z12.
Only the switching to next channel is a bit laggy , with the portal login but its not laggy with the m3u. I will try to change the hls time lower maybe to 3-4 from 6.
I Tryed alot of different apps... All other Worked fine no blackscreen. No lag ....

I also tryed to switch to konvert to portal in the settings thanks for the tip but its not helping same problem .

Have a nice evening and thank you

Maybe we find a solution

Try in mytvonline3 settings to turn off ARF for live tv.

Just for test.

Quote from bling2bling

Thank you Henkie for the Answer, i will try it. but i only have a login with iptv.m3u at the end..... With the phone app from mytvonline , same line works without a problem, and also with vu+ , other iptv apps, no problem. Just in mytvonline3 on z12 .... as i see it, i only can wait for a update and hoping they fix this ...

Ask seller for your xtream codes credentials.

Or you can get them from the m3u url if you have.

There you read also the username and password and can you use for create a xc api login.

Goodday my friend.

Quote from lobb

In the end, everything went well. The Z12 Ultra is really smooth.

Formuler should mention that the setup needs to be done without a VPN enabled to avoid geo-blocking.
That would have saved me this delay.

Otherwise, I’m not completely convinced by MyTVOnline 3. Is there a way to see the full list of channels without having to go through all the groups?

Thanks again

Not with mytvonline3. (Maby in future due an update??? Who knows.)

You can press ok button while watching a channel, then you see the channel list of that group.

And press to left to see groups etc.

In mytvonline and mytvonline2 there was a group called ALL, there were all channels in one list. But that list is sooooo big when you got more countries😂

You can press green button and search for channels or vod/serie.

Play with it and check some functions and enjoy your great choice for the Z12 ultra box!

Goodday my friend

Quote from lobb

Thank you very much for your quick response.

I’m glad to learn that the VPN is not a problem for the daily use of the device.

In a few hours, I will receive a new device. I will make sure to configure it without the VPN enabled.

One last question: how will I know that the device is completely configured and that from that moment on I can safely use my VPN with a US IP without causing this problem again?

Is there any trick I should know to avoid another surprise ?

Hello my friend,

I hope they send you a european device. Ofcourse😉

The thrick is: FIRST login with a pc or other device on your router!

Turn off vpn in the router! Then you should get spain ip. If you can't turn off vpn check ip first and then connect to europea country (spain, portugal etc...)

check if your ip changes, so you know it's changed from usa ton spain.

If ip is changed.

Connect device to route. (Only if you are sure your ip is changed to european country)

Then do setup device and do firmware update etc.

After firmware update box reboot and then you can change vpn on router to ON and or select usa as vpn country.

Or make a wifi hotspot with your mobile phone, then it gets also spain ip right? Cause your phone is connected to 4g/5g and make wifi from it. Connect with box to your phone and should also be good. (If you do this thrick, be sure ethernet/utp cable is not connected!!!)

Let me know how it works out for you,

Goodday my friend

P.s: Use ALWAYS vpn. And if you have nordvpn, then i ADVICE an obfuscated server. (The internet provider can't see then that you use an vpn)

If they send you the same one (geo Europe)

setup with ip in europe ofcourse... (without vpn! Turn off vpn in router first before power on box) Otherwise if you start box with an usa ip you will cause the problem again. Don't!

After complete setup and updated firmware...

...then put on your vpn to usa and should be work.

1: disconnect headphone from other devices and connect in android bluetooth settings the headphones.

2: search forum for website/forum for guide, if not find it isn't there. Looks for me bluetooth is bluetooth, so bluetooth version should not matter in theory.

3: i read on forum somewhere that should be possible. An app from google.

Google remote or so. Don't know anymore, i use my remote and no phone or google assistent on my box.

4: i don't.

I wish i could help more, but maby other can. I tried...

Try reset remote:

Hold 0 (zero) and OK button together for 3 seconds and led wil blink 3 times or so. Then remote should be reset.

Try again to pair my friend.

Quote from reasonablecrab

Anything around 40gb with Hardware Accelerated Decoding turned on and it won't play at all, frozen image/playback. When I turn it off, it will play these files, but not with awful quality... Stremio as the default player. Do I have a lemon?

Playing the same link/file on a z10 and it plays normally. Maybe android 12 is just buggy?

Please wait for promised big update for z12. Maby there is something that fix the problem.

I really hope it will come this march...

...we are waiting already a long time.

But yeah, it's is very big update, fixing the bugs, testing the bugs if they are fixed etcetera.

Formuler is a small company, but lets hope they get it done in march.

And in future there come always more and more updates...

You already installed latest version of stremio Version 1.9.8?

If not: https://dl.strem.io/android/v1.9.8…armeabi-v7a.apk

Quote from dzataba

Why don't you program one of the colored buttons on the remote to take you straight to VOD or SERIES it serves the same purpose.

It should be already at the gtv, z10, z11 and z12 remote the left bottom "2 dots" button.

Quote from henkie

On my z12 ultra (XC),i have nordvpn installed (TCP=open vpn) protocol,encryption off.

I did as suggested in several posts set my Private DNS to QUAD9,but after several hours or days a message pops up "Set your DNS to automatic or off"

I am wondering where this message originates from (Nordvpn,iptv provider or ISP)?

The message comes from the Formuler Z12 itself, not due ISP.

And the message is triggered by nordvpn i think.

Quote from barista

Just something that's been on my mind for a long time. Why is there no VOD access via the main launcher? I don't mean showing the rows at the bottom for history, I mean a straight up more easily accessible route to TV and Movie VOD access.

You should really re-think this. I can't tell you how many times now I'm hearing from friends or family they didn't even know the VOD section existed, because it's hidden behind the menu

Poor UI/UX design

Hello,

In the main launcher? you need first start mytvonline3. Then is it in menu.

It's also al vod button on the remote!

Left corner under. With the 2 dots.

1 push vod

Long press button then series.

With the Z11 you can setup it also with the formuler remote app?

You didn't know?

Quote from Stefansteif

Hi Guys,

This message keeps popping up after a time watching.
1) im on Xcapi (not m3u)

2) i asked my Provider about this, and asked him if its wrong in his panel or something. Because actually these are no VOD Channels, these are real normal live tv channel.

What can i else check?

It's on there side. Had it 2 years ago for last seen on my z11 then.

Next they they fixed it When i contacted tv provider.

I have it sometimes (almost never) with kodi when i play a Dolby vision movie.

There was already an update, but problem was still there, but less.

I thought they know about it. It's a long time to wait for the big next update. But i hope it will come in march.

You installed latest update already right?
