How to Set Up IPTV on Chromecast with Google TV


This guide is for Chromecast with Google TV (4K or HD) — the version with a remote and Google TV home screen. It is discontinued, but many people still use one.

Not for the old cast-only Chromecast

If your Chromecast has no remote and only casts from a phone, it cannot install SurfPlayer. Get an Onn 4K or see the devices chart.

Install SurfPlayer before the trial

Complete the install, then order the trial. The 48 hours start when your login is created.

Steps

  1. Open Google Play Store → install Downloader → allow it to install apps.
  2. In Downloader enter 5188273 or streamsurfers.net/app → Install SurfPlayer → Open.
  3. Order your trial and sign in with the username and password from your email (no server address).

HD models fill storage quickly — keep only the apps you need. Onn is our upgrade pick. TiviMate remains an optional backup.

Common questions

Does SurfPlayer work on Chromecast with Google TV?
Yes, on Chromecast with Google TV (4K or HD) that still runs Google TV. Install via Downloader with code 5188273.
My Chromecast is the old cast-only dongle (no Google TV). Can I use SurfPlayer?
No. The older Chromecast that only casts from a phone cannot install apps. Use an Onn, Google TV Streamer, or Fire OS Firestick instead.
Storage is full on the HD model
The HD Chromecast with Google TV has limited storage. Uninstall unused apps, or move to an Onn 4K which has a better balance for player apps.
When should I order the trial?
Install SurfPlayer first. The 48-hour trial starts when your login is created.
