Frequently Asked Questions

What is EPG on IPTV?+

EPG (Electronic Program Guide) is the on-screen TV guide that shows what is playing now and next across every IPTV channel. On ZOO IPTV it works just like the guide on traditional cable, but it covers thousands of channels in one scrollable grid.

What does EPG stand for?+

EPG stands for Electronic Program Guide, the digital schedule built into your IPTV app. It lists current and upcoming programs by channel so you can plan what to watch without flipping through channels.

How do I set up the EPG on IPTV?+

On ZOO IPTV the EPG loads automatically once you enter your login in a supported player such as IPTV Smarters or TiviMate. You do not need to add a separate guide file, since the program data populates the grid for you.

Why is my IPTV EPG not showing?+

An IPTV EPG that is not showing usually needs a refresh, an app update, or a moment to download the guide data after sign-in. Reopening the player, updating it, and checking your internet connection resolves most EPG issues, and ZOO IPTV support can help if it persists.

Does EPG include catch-up TV?+

On ZOO IPTV the EPG is paired with catch-up TV, so you can scroll back in the guide and replay programs you missed from the last few days. This turns the program guide into both a schedule and a rewind tool.
