Streaming Device Tools — The Pre-Installation Verification Hub

A Kodi repository validator fetches a repository’s addons.xml manifest, verifies its MD5 checksum, and tests whether the stream endpoints actually respond. You use one to confirm a repository is still alive before adding it as a source in Kodi — saving you from typing a URL with a remote and discovering it is dead.

Use the IPTV Playlist, M3U & EPG Validator. Paste your M3U playlist URL or enter your Xtream Codes server, username, and password. The tool confirms the credentials authenticate, checks the account status and expiry date, and tests a sample of channels for reachability — all without you typing anything into TiviMate or IPTV Smarters first.

A Downloader code is a short numeric shortcut from the AFTVnews URL Shortener that resolves to a full download URL. The Downloader Code Tracker resolves the code’s redirect, checks that the destination server responds, and flags anything insecure or dead before you type the digits into the Downloader app on your Fire TV.

Open the Storage & Performance Diagnostic in the browser on the device itself (or any device you are considering buying). It runs real benchmarks in your browser — storage I/O via OPFS, CPU via Web Workers, GPU via WebGL, and network speed — and produces a Kodi Readiness Score. No app installation is required.

The Stremio Addon Checker fetches the addon’s manifest, validates its schema, checks for CORS headers, and tests the actual stream endpoint with a well-known public-domain content ID. It reports whether the addon is Working, Degraded, Rate Limited, or Stream Empty — with a plain-language explanation of each result.

All six tools are completely free and require no account, no email address, and no signup. They run entirely in your browser, meaning nothing is installed on your device and no credentials are ever stored on our servers.

No. Validation results are computed server-side for the duration of the request and discarded. Nothing you paste into the tools is saved, logged, or shared. The only data retained is the public metadata of directory entries (addon names, repository URLs, Downloader codes) that other visitors have chosen to submit for the community directory.

Every tool works on any device with a modern browser — Fire TV, Fire TV Stick, Fire TV Cube, Android TV, Google TV, Chromecast with Google TV, NVIDIA Shield, Raspberry Pi, mobile phones, tablets, and desktop computers. There is nothing to install and nothing device-specific about the checks themselves.
