How to Activate IBO Player with Your MAC Address and Device Key

Find the MAC address and device key in IBO Player, add your playlist, and activate the app. Works the same for BOB Player, ABE Player and similar apps.

IBO Player and similar apps (BOB Player, ABE Player, iBoss Player, FlixNet) do not ask for your login on the TV. Instead, each device has a MAC address and a device key, and your playlist is linked to them online. It sounds strange the first time, but it means no typing with the remote.

Step 1: Install the app

Install IBO Player (or IBO Player Pro) from your TV's app store, the Play Store, the Amazon Appstore, or the developer's website.

Step 2: Find the MAC address and device key

Open the app. The first screen shows:

  • MAC address: six pairs of letters and numbers, for example 7C:2A:31:8F:04:BE
  • Device key: a number of 6 or more digits

If you already added a playlist, find them in Settings or Account inside the app. Take a clear photo of the screen.

Step 3: Add your playlist

Choose one:

  1. Send us the photo on WhatsApp or Telegram. We add your playlist and tell you when to restart the app. This is the easiest option.
  2. Do it yourself on the player's official website: open "Manage playlist" or "Login", enter the MAC address and device key, then add a playlist with your Xtream Codes login (server, username, password) or your M3U link.

Restart the app. It loads the channels, films and series.

Step 4: Activate the app

IBO Player and its cousins include a free trial, often 7 days. After that, the app developer charges a small activation fee, either for one year or for life, per device. You can pay the developer directly, or buy a player license from us and we activate it for you.

Common problems

  • "No playlist" or "Playlist empty": the playlist was added to a different MAC. Check every character.
  • New MAC after a reset: some TVs give the app a new MAC after a factory reset. Send us a new photo.
  • Trial expired: the app shows an activation message. Activate it, and your playlist comes back.

Frequently asked questions

Is the MAC address the same as my TV's MAC?

Not always. Use the one shown inside the app.

Can I use the same activation on two TVs?

No, activations are per device. Each TV needs its own.

Is sharing my MAC and device key safe?

Share them only with us or the official website. Anyone with both could change your playlist.
