IPTV Free Trial Checker
Validate the M3U/M3U8 playlist your trial provider gave you — before you pay. Paste the file content, get a health score, channel table, EPG coverage and warnings (duplicates, missing header, http streams). Runs locally; supports our free trial checklist.

Runs 100% locally in your browser — nothing is uploaded. Paste the content of the trial playlist file your provider gave you.
Tip: Trial playlist URL fetch is blocked by CORS on most providers — pasting file content is the most reliable trial check.
How to use
- Copy your trial
playlist.m3u— open it in a text editor and copy all lines. - Paste above and click Check trial playlist.
- Fix flagged issues, then test live on your real device (Fire Stick, Android TV, etc.) following the guide.
Why this beats a blind trial
A large channel count means little if the playlist is malformed. This checker surfaces duplicates, missing EPG tags and insecure URLs — the top reasons trials fail on your player.
What to review before you subscribe
A trial playlist should prove more than channel quantity. Review whether the file has a clean #EXTM3U structure, whether channels are grouped clearly, whether EPG metadata is present, and whether the streams use stable URLs. After the quick check, test the same playlist on the device you actually plan to use.
Technical validation is not the same as authorization. A playlist can be formatted correctly and still require proper licensing or account permission from the service that provides it.
Good trial signs
- Clear groups for News, Sports, Movies or country categories.
- Low duplicate count and consistent channel naming.
- EPG fields such as
tvg-idortvg-nameincluded for guide matching. - Playlist works in more than one player, for example VLC first and then your TV app.
