Looking for an IPTVEditor alternative?
iptv.domains does everything you'd expect from an online IPTV playlist and EPG editor — and adds the part a standalone editor can't: a permanent URL that never changes, automatic failover, and multiple providers merged into one list.

Editor or middleware — why the difference matters
A standalone IPTV editor is great at one job: changing a playlist or guide so it looks the way you want. But once you've exported it, you're on your own — when the provider updates the lineup your edits drift out of date, and if the provider's server has a bad night your stream just stops.
iptv.domains keeps the editing you like and adds a permanent layer between you and your providers. Your trims and renames are stored as rules, so they survive every update. Your apps point at one URL that never changes — switch providers and you don't reconfigure a single device. And if a provider goes offline, failover moves you to a backup automatically.
What you keep, and what you gain
- Keep: a fast online editor for channels, categories, names and logos, plus a full EPG editor with auto-match.
- Gain: one permanent M3U / Xtream URL, automatic failover, multi-provider merging, MAG/Stalker support, and a free trial to test it all first.

Frequently asked questions
What is IPTVEditor?
IPTVEditor is a popular online service for editing IPTV playlists and EPG data. iptv.domains covers the same editing ground and adds middleware features — a permanent URL, automatic failover and multi-provider aggregation — so it works as a full alternative.
Why choose iptv.domains as an IPTVEditor alternative?
Because it's an editor and a gateway. You edit your playlist and guide online, but you also get one permanent M3U / Xtream URL that never changes, automatic switching when a provider goes offline, and the ability to merge several providers into a single list — set your apps up once and forget them.
Can I move my existing setup over?
Yes. Add your provider by M3U URL or Xtream Codes login, and your lineup imports automatically. Re-create your trims and renames in the editor (it's fast), then switch your apps to your new permanent URL.
What's the difference between an editor and middleware?
A pure editor changes a playlist and hands it back to you. Middleware like iptv.domains sits between you and your providers permanently — so it can keep your edits across provider updates, fail over automatically, and serve everything from one stable URL.
