The TV app allows users to connect playlists using Xtream Codes or M3U credentials manually. Adding a third option “Login with QR Code” would be pretty nice.
On the TV App
Inside the playlist connection panel, alongside:
Xtream Codes
M3U Playlist
there would be a 3rd option: “Connect via QR Code”.
When selected:
The TV app generates a temporary QR code.
The code remains valid only for a short period.
No credentials are displayed on the TV screen.
On the Mobile App
Since the user is already authenticated on their Stream FC app on their phone:
Inside the profile/settings section on Mobile, there would be an option: “Add a Device”
Selecting it opens the camera shutter / scanner.
The user scans the QR code displayed on the TV.
After confirmation:
The tv subscription transfers to the TV app automatically.
No manual credential entry is needed.
Xtream/M3U credentials remain completely hidden and not shown in plain text.
Suggested Features
Users could choose on their phone :
1 hour session
2 hour session
4 hour session, or custom duration.
Credentials are never visible
Credentials are temporarily stored
Session automatically self-destructs after expiration
Auto logout after inactivity
This would be pretty nice for Relatives’ houses, Airbnb, Barbershops, Cafés, Temporary setups, Group watch etc.
Inside the phone app, users could manage connected TVs:
View active sessions
Rename devices
Revoke access remotely
Force logout instantly
The QR code should contain only a temporary encrypted session token and not the actual Xtream or M3U credentials / Maybe have PIN confirmation after scanning
