There is no CatchOn TV app for Windows or Mac. A computer can still watch CatchOn TV with a compatible IPTV player that accepts your login details, and this page explains how to set one up.
Choosing a player
Choose a player for your system that accepts Xtream-style login details: server address, username and password. Check that it supports a programme guide and favourites. We cannot guarantee any particular player, and the features differ between them.
Setting it up
- Download the player from its official website, and install it.
- Open the login or playlist screen and enter the server, username and password from My subscription.
- Wait for the channel list to load, then check the programme guide against a channel you know.
- Adjust the time zone in the guide settings if the times look wrong.
Picture and connection
A computer needs about the same connection as a television: 20 Mbps for Full HD and 35 Mbps or more for 4K. A wired connection gives the steadiest picture, and a larger monitor makes sport and films more enjoyable.
Questions about computers
Is there an official CatchOn TV app for computers?
No. Use a compatible player with your login details.
Can I use an Android emulator on a computer?
We do not support emulators, and they are not covered by our guarantee. Use a compatible player instead.
Does a computer count as a screen on my plan?
Yes. Every device that plays at the same time uses one of your plan’s screens.
