Why Use Windows?

Multi-Window Support

Resize the player window to keep watching while you browse the web or work in other apps.

High Performance

PCs typically have much faster processors than TV sticks, meaning zero lag in menus and instant channel switching.

Troubleshooting

Firewall Blocking

If channels won't load, Windows Firewall might be blocking the connection. Allow the app through your firewall in Control Panel settings.

Black Screen

Update your graphics card drivers (NVIDIA/AMD/Intel). Video decoding relies heavily on up-to-date GPU drivers.

FAQ

Can I record shows on my PC?

Yes! PCs usually have plenty of hard drive space, making them perfect for recording hours of content to watch later.

Does it support keyboard shortcuts?

Yes, you can use arrow keys to navigate, spacebar to pause, and Enter to select, making navigation incredibly fast.
