How to set up Flixtele on Formuler
Formuler boxes — the Z8, Z10 and Z11 among them — are purpose-built for exactly this, arriving with MyTVOnline pre-installed. That makes them among the fastest devices to set up: no sideloading, no store hunt, just a portal or Xtream Codes login into an app already on the home screen. Android runs underneath, so anything else here works too if you prefer.

- A Formuler box (Z8, Z10, Z11 or similar) with MyTVOnline
- Your server URL, username and password — or your MAC address for portal setup
- The box connected to the internet
Step-by-Step Setup
Formuler Installation
Open MyTVOnline
MyTVOnline 3 comes pre-installed — find it on the home screen. It is the best-integrated option on this hardware, with proper remote support and a snappy guide. Since Formuler runs Android, you can also sideload Flixtele from our Downloads page if you would rather use our own app.
Add via Xtream Codes
In MyTVOnline, choose Add Portal or the plus button, then select Xtream Codes as the type. Enter the server URL, username and password from your subscription email and save. This is the preferred route: it needs nothing from us, works immediately, and survives a server address change without a support ticket.
Or Use a MAC Portal
Prefer MAC-based activation? Find the address under Settings > System Information, send it to support, and we return a portal URL to enter under Add Portal > Portal URL. It amounts to the same thing — choose it only if you have a specific reason.
Turn On Auto Boot
In the Formuler settings, enable auto-start for MyTVOnline. The box then boots straight into your channels — what most people want from something plugged into a TV — and it removes a step for anyone in the house who did not set it up.
Start Watching
Channels, guide, films and series load on their own. The Formuler remote carries dedicated buttons for the guide and favourites, making daily use noticeably faster than a generic remote.

Common problems
Fixes specific to Formuler
The portal loads but shows no channels
Either the subscription is not yet linked to that MAC, or the portal address carries a typo. Recheck the address character by character, and confirm with support that the MAC you sent matches the one under System Information.
The guide opens slowly
MyTVOnline caches the EPG locally, and the first build takes a while on a large lineup. Let it finish once, then hide categories you never watch — a shorter list means a much faster guide.
Should I use Xtream Codes or a MAC portal?
Xtream Codes, absent a specific reason otherwise. It works the moment you enter it, needs no help from us, and keeps working through server address changes. MAC portals require a support round-trip for every change.
