Have a standard M3U or M3U8 playlist URL? Paste it into Klave and your library builds itself. Klave supports the plain-URL playlists you already have — it does not host, sell, or recommend any of them.
Paste the URL
- 1Add a new source and choose the M3U / M3U8 option.
- 2Paste your playlist URL — the same link you would open in any player.
- 3Optionally add your XMLTV EPG URL so live channels get a real guide.
Klave fetches the playlist, dedupes duplicated titles, and groups movies and shows into a clean, browsable library.
What the stepped import does
The import runs in transparent steps rather than one all-or-nothing pass. Channels, movies, and series come in progressively, and if a single feed or category is malformed, Klave skips just that piece and keeps going — so one bad entry never blocks the rest of your library.
When a feed misbehaves
If a channel will not play or a title looks wrong, resync the source from its settings. Klave rebuilds the affected pieces while preserving your favorites, hidden categories, and layout, which sync through your own private iCloud.
