Choosing a film should take less time than watching the trailer. The films section of the SSTV IPTV catalogue is sorted into categories so you can go straight to a mood, then start the title from its opening scene, pause it and come back later.

Choosing faster
Most players offer search and sorting. In TiviMate Premium you can search the whole catalogue, sort by date added and mark favourites. On players without good search, browse by category and use your TV remote’s number keys to jump through long lists.
Film night setup
A few settings make films look the way their makers intended:
- Turn off motion smoothing on the television, often called something like TruMotion or Auto Motion Plus, unless you like the effect.
- Let your device match the frame rate where it can; it removes the slight stutter in camera pans.
- Use the right picture mode, such as Cinema or Filmmaker mode, instead of the brightest showroom setting.
The 4K streaming page has more on picture settings for large screens.
Film questions
How often are new films added?
The catalogue changes regularly as titles are added and others are withdrawn. Sorting by “recently added” in your player shows the latest arrivals.
Can I choose the language of a film?
Where a film has several audio tracks or subtitles, you can switch them in your player’s playback options.
Do films play in 4K?
Some do. Most are in HD or Full HD, which looks sharp on the majority of televisions.
