24/7 channels

Turn your provider's shows and films into channels that play around the clock.

A 24/7 channel plays one show, episode after episode, or a run of films, as if it were on air. It's made from your TV provider's own library of shows and films, and it sits in the guide with your other channels. Nothing streams until you tune in.

What you needAn Xtream Codes provider. M3U playlists don't include the shows and films a 24/7 channel is made from.
