How to Add Sources to Klave

Klave ships empty — no playlists, no providers, no channels. Everything in your library comes from sources you connect: the services you already subscribe to and the files you already own. Here is how to add them, and what happens after you do.

Open Settings → Sources. This screen lists everything you have connected, and every source can be resynced, edited, or removed right from the list. To connect something new, tap Add Source. On a fresh install, onboarding walks you straight into the same flow.

The picker groups everything Klave can connect to:

• IPTV — an Xtream Codes login (server URL, username, password) or an M3U Playlist link with an optional EPG URL. These are the credentials your provider issued you.
• Media Server — Plex (sign in with your account in a secure browser window), Jellyfin, or Emby (server URL and login).
• Network & Local — a folder on this device, an SMB or NFS share on your NAS, WebDAV, SFTP / FTP, or auto-discovered DLNA / UPnP devices.
• Cloud — any S3-compatible bucket (endpoint, bucket, and access keys).

1. 1Fill in the fields for your source type and tap Connect.
2. 2Klave verifies the details and shows Importing your library… while it pulls everything in. The import is stepped — one bad category or feed never sinks the rest.
3. 3Watch your new titles land in Movies, TV Shows, and Live TV, already merged with what was there before.

That merging is the point. Add a second source — or a fifth — and Klave dedupes at the content level: the same movie from your provider, your NAS, and your media server becomes one tile with a quiet version picker behind it. Local and network copies are preferred, with IPTV filling the gaps.

Typing credentials with a remote is miserable, so the Apple TV asks you to finish on your iPhone: scan the QR code, enter the details on your phone, and the source appears on the TV. There is an on-TV entry fallback if your phone is not handy — and any source added on one device syncs to all of them through your own iCloud.
