Using Xbox Series X / Series S for IPTV in the UK
If you own a Xbox Series X / Series S, you can have IPTV running in about 4 mins. It uses Xbox OS with Kodi Xbox / MyIPTV Player, which is the combination most viewers use.
Plan for roughly 8 to 10 Mbps for HD and about 25 Mbps for 4K per stream, and add headroom if other people in the home are streaming at the same time.
Why choose Xbox Series X / Series S
Consoles are not designed for IPTV, so options are more limited than on a streaming stick.
UK viewers use it for Premier League, EFL and cup football.
